  • Most plants and really most foods in general have some sort of effect other than calories, at least for individuals that may not have a fully complete diet.

    Additionally there are more and more studies about phytochemicals, which appear to have a lot of potentially healthful properties.

    Humans are hard to rest though so basically, just eat healthy. Eat a lot of plants and reduce animal products (maybe, this is a contentious recommendation) and mostly just don’t eat processed food if you can.

    Even white rice and white potatoes are “healthy” in the right quantities and ratios.

    Not really want you asked, but if you are curious “eating on the wild side” by Joe Robinson is a great book that talks about phytochemicals and how to pick vegetables that might be more “healthy”.


  • I’m with you in the long term.

    I am curious what kernel is backing the computers on the stuff SpaceX is doing. I’ve never seen their consoles but I am guessing we are closer to modern reusable hardware and software than we were before. When niche applications like that keep getting more diverse, i bet we will get more open specifications so everything can work together.
    But again I am more pessimistic and think 50 years would be relatively early for something like that.






  • Why is he still in the race or why are his supporters?

    For him I think it’s obvious. Narcissism and the fact that he has a lot of federal crimes in the courts that he can stop when he is elected.

    His supporters are more complicated. He pretty decently still owns the GOP so even if they are getting cold feet, they don’t seem to have a plan to overthrow him. I feel like they are planning on just stonewalling for 4 more years and then try to win the next one and cut the checks to the billionaires then.

    I got nothing on his base though. I haven’t understood them for 10 years now. Not sure I ever will.
