@skdh Wrong. Your body can offload water very quickly and leave behind the food, while water trapped in fruits and vegetables is only released while the food is being digested. Eating raisins and a drinking glass of water is not the same as eating a bowl of grapes.

I'm all for healthy eating and all but the reason the volume of fruits and vegetables is large is simply that they have a high water content. You can drink a liter of water with your oreos and get the same volume. It's a dumb argument. x.com/GodswillChemis…

@EllaBlun @GodswillChemist He was obviously comparing snack foods.

@GodswillChemist this is blatantly oversimplified. you don't get full just from quantity. 400 cal of fruit may be huge by volume, but is hardly going to keep you satiated for long. 400 cal of meat is gonna be tiny in volume, aprox 250g (1/2 lb), but will keep you full for half a day

This is what 400 calories looks like. Same number. Two completely different outcomes.

@catwithaura Gotta bump it up to a supersoaker at that point.

just a small inconvenience to reach his dreams 🫶

@ElephantofLox @UziCryptoo People don't consider that personal finances are closely intertwined with emotions. It's not just math in a vacuum. They paid in the form of lower returns to lower their anxiety and stress. That's worth it to alot of people.

I understand the math, and I'm sure they did too. However, you can't put a price on your piece of mind. There is no better feeling than having your house paid off. They are under 30, there is still plenty of time to invest and build up a huge investment portfolio. Especially, since they no longer have a mortgage.

Just heard the best/worst caller on the Dave Ramsey podcast. Married couple, under 30. $145,000 household income. Came on the show to celebrate paying off the mortgage on their $450,000 Georgia home. Said they starting paying it off early 5 years ago, meaning they had a low interest rate home loan (probably <3%) and started to aggressively pay it down right as interest rates were starting to rise. Dave Ramsey loved it, launching into a lecture about how 26-year olds who say they can’t buy homes should look at this couple for inspiration. Hahaha.

@bremocs @techbromemes Did this yesterday on an internal repo, and had it fixed within 2 minutes because this keeps getting posted over and over. Thank you tech twitter.

@techbromemes revoke the api key

@DwayneS96420464 @Adriksh Big companies do have security scans that check the packages. Does that do anything though? Not sure. 🙂

@Adriksh You actually think financial institutions like JP Morgan and defense contractors like Lockheed Martin are just blindly importing code?

"open source is secure because anyone can audit the code" implies that anyone is actually auditing the code. nobody is reading your 40,000 line c library. we are all just blindly importing it and hoping the original author didn't wake up feeling evil today.

@microcosm_eana @heavensbvnny It’s not about the ice cream…

@heavensbvnny A toddler don't need "presence", anything people said here, philosophically, a toddler needs a new ice cream, just it, not an adult therapy session, they are kids, they just need another ice cream

I watched a toddler drop her ice cream in the parking lot yesterday. Full meltdown. Her dad didn't rush to fix it. Didn't offer solutions. He just sat down on the hot asphalt next to her and said, "That really sucks, doesn't it?" They sat there together for a full minute. She was crying. He was sad with her. Then she took his hand and said, "Can we go home now?" I've been thinking about it all day. Maybe the best thing you can offer someone isn't a solution, just your presence.

@sachinyadav699 This is why I use Gemini for my personal AI subscription. (Claude for work still) The other day I had Gemini calculate the driving time to every location I want to visit on vacation and pick a hotel for me in the best spot and it called the Google Maps tool. Insane value.

OpenAI and Anthropic racing to build the best AI while Google casually plugs Gemini into Search, Maps, Gmail and Chrome

@OrevaZSN For every person that builds and passes on wealth you have 10 people that die penniless even with inheritance. Building and maintaining wealth is rare.

You’re telling me that for me to be born it took 1 dad, 1 mom, 4 grandparents, 8 great‑grandparents, 16great‑great‑grandparents… and NONE of them left me even a single plot of land?

@kirawontmiss Apple Maps for navigating with CarPlay and Google Maps for research.

Apple Maps > Google Maps

@zekramu Nah bro, vscode git extension and if that doesn’t work, Haiku will fix it.

if you use a ui for source control you are fundamentally an unserious programmer.

@moorehn Don’t buy em bro. They’ll charge as much as they can get away with, and they’re bad for you.

I legitimately do not understand why a bag of potato chips is now $5. They cost almost nothing to produce, package and market

@SportsNNsTufFf @zionszzn I would bring them if I could, but I only have enough for one ticket. 🎟️ Children shouldn’t have to pay for the sins of their parents. Sometimes people just make bad choices in their life and they have to live with it.

@AgentOrange_DX @zionszzn You’re legit a scum bag human being if this is the way you think How selfish could u be to make it out the “hood” and not bring the people who enabled you to make it. Hells hot buddy remember that

Rule #1: never tell your parents how much money you have

@SportsNNsTufFf @zionszzn It’s harder to escape the lower class when family expects you to bring them with you. If you don’t hide the wealth then you’ll have to learn to say no. Poor people always need money.

@zionszzn Bro what lmfao Your parents wiped your ass and raised you and now you’re afraid to admit to them u have saved up prolly some measly ass amount of money out of fear that they will ask you for your help Go to hell You don’t deserve your parents

@rand_longevity You can learn faster by asking AI questions, and doing things.

every professor I talk to that uses AI says the college system is about to collapse

@TukiFromKL You’re not to going to escape the permanent underclass by being a plumber. Aquire assets. You need to buy the robots not compete with them.

Anthropic just drop the jobs that’ll survive AI. Not software engineers. Not designers. Not analysts. Plumbers. Farmers. Electricians. The company building the AI is literally telling you to learn a trade.

@1ssve Can’t use it, cause doctor’s office receptionists will just immediately hang up. Also the call hold thing is a bait, they’ll hang up the microsecond you don’t say hello when they finally connect to you after 39 minutes of listening to the titanic song.

@kylegawley Coding was always a means to an end. I just liked making the computer do useful things, now I can do it faster.

AI coding is fun because it's new and exciting But it sucks the joy out of building a product There's no problem-solving, no sense of achievement, no learning, no skill improvement, no flow state Probably that's great if you can't do anything for yourself and suck at everything

@ByteWizard2050 @dev_maims Did this post hit a nerve? 😂

@dev_maims The usual ragebait post trying to shit on developers who are upping their skills in a shitty economy probably a web nig behind that account

Computer Science students with no job......

@packarmz @dollarsanddata It’s an incomplete definition then. It should be a mixture of what you own and what you earn. If you own a paid off house and make 50k, you are much better off than someone renting making 50k.

@AgentOrange_DX @dollarsanddata Social class is literally about what you earn. I don't make the rules. Your current lifestyle is about what you earn. Your future lifestyle is about what you keep. Find a good balance.

Every day I'm more convinced that these are the new economic classes in the U.S. (based on net worth, not income)
