Whatever your work is, you have to become obsessed with it. Mastery demands obsession. There's no other way.

@ProudAtlantean Well, protein is typically highly satiating. But the food matrix matters
English
Pretty cool study. Adding a protein bar (180 cals, 20g protein) didn’t reduce subsequent energy intake and just added calories, causing fat gain.
Carlos A. Monteiro@CMonteiro_USP
A crossover trial on protein-rich bars—an iconic UPF marketed for weight loss, with a global market nearing US$5 billion—found that adding one bar (180 kcal) to the usual diet for 7 days increased daily energy intake (by 10%) and body fat (3% in 7 days)🙀. #s0035" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

@LadyLawyerUSA Same, I’ve been an em dash power user for years
English
@maxlugavere This is interesting because I have used em dashes in my legal writing for years 🤷🏼♀️
English
Y’all are looking for em dashes but “quietly” popping up everywhere may be the most cringe AI tell.
That or preemptive defensive framing… “not X” when X was never suggested to begin with.

@maxlugavere We so much resources yet so little minds to draw out potential.

We’ve inherited an ultra-processed information environment which, like the foods, causes us to “overconsume” content for nutrients that never arrive.

BMI is accurate for people who don’t lift, which is most people.
Crémieux@cremieuxrecueil
There are a few people for whom BMI doesn't indicate obesity. Very few. Comparing BMI to body fat-based assessments, there's >98% agreement, with 97% for men and 99.9% for women. BMI works well at the population level!

@KeenanPeachy The price of registration scales with the price of the car. Absolute theft
English
Great news LA! You no longer need to pay $380 to register your car every year—expired tags are A ok!
Dan Burmawi@DanBurmawy
LA City Council just told LAPD they can't pull anyone over anymore for expired tags, dead tail lights, cracked windshields, busted mirrors, illegal tint, loud exhaust, or missing plates. Why? Because out of 72,000 stops in three years, 86% were Black or Latino drivers. So if your car is busted, you're now invisible to the LAPD. Congratulations. This rule is intended to reduce discriminatory policing and build community trust.

Most people in the gym have no clue what they’re doing.
