- It’s a study with Walter Willett and Frank Hu, who are probably the most highly regarded nutritional researchers working in the field.
Here’s a great video about how these researchers are using big data to reveal insights into nutrition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8JQtwLNKXg
- Have you tried uv? I switched to it from poetry a couple months ago. It’s not perfect but I’m enjoying it a lot more than poetry.

- > the US essentially subsidizes the entire drug research industry
This isn’t entirely true. The US does pay more for drugs but a lot of this money isn’t spent on research. In fact pharmaceutical companies spend far more on advertising than research:

- Nutritional studies are notoriously difficult to conduct. You either have to isolate subjects and monitor everything they eat and when. Or you have to rely on self reported data and people do an atrocious job of tracking food, estimating portion size, etc.
This study did the former:
> The duration of the study is 7 days including 3 days with controlled diet and 4 days (including 5 nights) in a metabolic chamber at the Institute of Nutritional Medicine at the University of Hohenheim.
I imagine it was prohibitively expensive to have more participants.
- I see. Thanks for the response! Great article too.
- With the way that Apple prevents you from reusing Apple IDs, does it mean that if my Apple ID is blah@mydomainname.com and I migrate mydomainname.com (currently using G Suite free) over to iCloud that I can't set up blah@mydomainname.com?

- There are a bunch of mypy configuration options to disallow certain things like --disallow-untyped-defs. There’s also --strict which forces typing on everything.
- And don't pronounce PyPI as pie-pie. It's pie-P-I.
- I was considering upgrading to an iPhone 12 mini. Does it have these issues too?

- Does your roof generate electricity though? A solar roof is a roof + solar panels.
- Just out of curiosity, what happens to the engineers that work on these projects that get shutdown by Google? Do they get laid off?
- No ‘Night of the Living Dead’?
- How did you do that? Is it possible with an iPhone?
- Did you read the article? It’s literally the first sentence.

- Never read Aldiss. Any recommendations on which book(s) to start with?
- It's right there in the first paragraph:
> high intake of fruits, whole grains, oily fish and vegetables
