I like to travel old school. Just get hard copy of the map and keep driving. No phone coverage. You're just on your own. Feels so good.

@theliverdoc What's your take on Curqmeg-3 supplement?

Don't drink more than 2-3 standard cups per day 🚨Things you should be afraid of: ☠️Protein powders with herbs ☠️ Protein powders with complex blends ☠️Green tea extracts ☠️Turmeric or curcumin supplements ☠️Prolonged testosterone use ☠️Anabolics steroids, stimulants ☠️Herbal supplements (more the number of herbs, higher the risk of liver injury) ☠️Ashwagandha (high risk of organ damage) ☠️Shilajit (high risk of heavy metal poisoning) ☠️Multivitamins (increased risk of cancers) ☠️Alcohol (high risk of cancer and brain damage) ☠️Tobacco (number 1 killer of adults in the world) ☠️ Homeopathy (seemingly safe, but mostly it's alcohol and sugar, both bad for health)

@FitFounder @FrostzMonkey Dan what's you're go-to brand for Creatine? @FitFounder

@FrostzMonkey I don't believe they're third party tested. I'd be hesitant to buy this due to heavy metal content.

Supplements that have changed my life · Creatine · Glycine · Omega 3's · Magnesium · Vitamin D (the sun) · Hydrolyzed Collegen Peptides Each one contributes to making me into a better human.

@theliverdoc How exactly is Hepkart useful for liver disease?

June 13 was Global Fatty Liver Day. Here are some points on fatty liver that doctors won't generally tell you. 1️⃣ Fatty liver disease is now known as "Steatotic Liver Disease" to remove stigma and body shaming. 2️⃣ Fatty liver can be due to significant alcohol use or metabolic disease or both. Alcohol-related fatty liver reverses completely in 2-4 weeks with abstinence. You do not need drug treatments. Metabolic disease-related fatty liver disease reverses when associated metabolic disease is controlled (diabetes, obesity, hypothyroidism, high lipids, hypertension & heart disease). It requires treatment from metabolic disease point of view. Fatty liver due to both causes, called "MetALD" requires both abstinence and control of metabolic disease. An obese alcohol user has far worse outcome than non-obese alcohol user. But both have same high risk for many types of cancers. 3️⃣ Treating fatty liver based on only an ultrasound finding of fatty liver is wrong. Grades of fatty liver on ultrasound ➡️1, 2 and 3 are just patterns of fat deposition in liver. Grade 1 does not mean lower severity of disease and Grade 3 does not mean higher severity of disease. 4️⃣ If you find fatty liver on ultrasound, look for reasons for fatty liver. You do not treat the effect. You treat the cause. Obese? Lose weight. Diabetes? Control your glucose, maintain calorie deficit diet. Alcohol? Stop drinking. Many doctors will prescribe drugs for fatty liver solely based on ultrasound findings. They are looting you. A large majority of fatty liver patients require only lifestyle changes and no drugs. 5️⃣If you find fatty liver on ultrasound and there are associated risk factors or causes for the fatty liver, then assess the risk of you having or developing severe form of fatty liver. This is called steatohepatitis or NASH, now called MASH. This is the severe form of fatty liver that requires treatment. Do not jump to do a Fibroscan or Shearwave test to look for steatohepatitis. Listen... 6️⃣If you have fatty liver on ultrasound + risk factors (age >40 and metabolic diseases) for severe fatty liver, then screen yourself with the FIB-4 or NFS scores. FIB-4 (use if 40-65y): hepatitisc.uw.edu/page/clinical-… NFS (use if <40 or >65y): omnicalculator.com/health/nafld-f… Remember, only use these scores if you have ultrasound fatty liver AND metabolic risk factors. 7️⃣ Now if the above scores are beyond cut off for significant or advanced (severe) fatty liver disease (also called significant fibrosis due to fat and inflammation) then go for Fibroscan or Shearwave (elastography) test to confirm presence of significant/advanced fibrosis in liver. 8️⃣ Those patients with significant or advanced fibrosis due to fat in the liver are the ones who require drugs for liver disease apart from drugs for metabolic disease and lifestyle changes. 9️⃣The currently approved drug for severe non-alcohol related fatty liver disease is Resmetirom (for those without cirrhosis). And the other recommended ones include vitamin E and pioglitazone. No other drugs are to be given and are not approved or recommended for non alcohol related fatty liver. 🔟 In India, a pharmaceutical company promoted drug called Saroglitazar is heavily prescribed by physicians, surgeons and specialists. This drug is NOT recommended by major Hepatology clinical societies for treatment of severe fatty liver disease. It is expensive and must be avoided. Many looter-doctors prescribe Saroglitazar even just based on ultrasound findings of fatty liver. Pharma promotion of this drug is out of control in India. But consumer/patients beware. It's use is only limited to diabetes patients with high triglycerides and not for severe forms of fatty liver. 1️⃣1️⃣Similarly other drugs like ursodeoxycholic acid, s-adenosyl methionine, combination of dietary supplements, n-acetyl cysteine, silymarin, vitamin C or herbal products are all waste of your money and sometimes more damaging to health. Avoid them and avoid doctors who prescribe them.

This guy @Ravisutanjani is a great specimen of how much of a fraud you can pull off in the Fintech space. - Entire LinkedIn is Fake. All degrees. - Used creds to get followers on Twitter. - Used that following/reach to get jobs in Fintech (got fired quickly) - Used that experience to charge people up to 25k/per meeting - INDmoney did a townhall with him - Got covered by publications (all copy/paste)

@navinpai @opentelemetry @FOSSUnitedBLR Will this be recorded? Def interested in this space.

❌ [08:00 AM] You: Hello ❌ [08:02 AM] Teammate: Hi ❌ ## TEAMMATE WAITS WHILE YOU PHRASE YOUR QUESTION ❌ [08:07 AM] You: I was wondering what (the rest of the question…) ❌ [08:09 AM] Teammate: You can do (rest of answer...) Notice the timestamps in the above chat. When you sent this message to your teammate, he would need to stop the task that he was doing to see just a "Hello" from your side. Since he doesn’t know why you pinged, he also replies with a “Hi”. Once you get his reply, you start typing your question. The teammate would now wait while you frame your question properly. Remember typing is much slower than when you speak. So, it takes you a few minutes to completely type and send it. This is equivalent to calling someone on the mobile, saying “Hello” and then putting their call on hold. Don’t do this. Instead, try this ✅ [08:00 AM] You: Hey -- I was wondering what (the rest of the question…) ✅ [08:02 AM] Teammate: Yes, you can do (rest of answer...) Many times, this happens because you are trying to be polite by not directly jumping to your question similar to when talking in person or on a mobile. But work chats are nothing like that. On the contrary, you are making the other person wait and switch context multiple times. The same thing happens when you do ❌ “Hey, are you online?” ❌ “Hi, had to discuss a few things” ❌ “Hello, can you help me with a few questions?” Crux: Just ask the question in the first message itself! Agree?

After tobacco was brought over from the New World, people quickly realized it could be used as medicine. Western doctors started using tobacco smoke to help with cold and drowsiness. However, they learned the technique of applying tobacco through the rectum from Native Americans. The procedure was used to treat gut pain, and liquid tobacco enemas were often given to ease the symptoms of a hernia. Before the implementation of an official instrument, tobacco enemas were typically administered with a standard smoking pipe. This proved to be an impractical solution as the stem of a pipe was much shorter than the tube of the instrument that would come later, making both the spread of diseases such as cholera and the accidental inhalation of the contents of the patient's anal cavity. During the early 19th century the practice fell into decline, when it was discovered that the principal active agent in tobacco smoke, nicotine, is poisonous.

Gut wrenching to see such a beautiful place burnt down.

@GergelyOrosz Factors I considered- 1. Top criteria - WLB in both roles. 2. Overall Growth opportunities - tech, soft skills, mentoring, inspiration. 3. What % of each role would I *really* enjoy doing. 4. What will keep me happy in long run.

As an engineer, when you had the opportunity to move to the manager path: how did you evaluate if this was what you wanted to do? And how did you evaluate it later? This is a big decision, and not one that is easy to make for many devs I know (it was also the case for me)
