I get major brain for on intermittent fasting. I have to spread out my protein and carbs over the day, so for me calorie restriction works best.

I'm specifically talking about when you're hungry and want to eat, but your calorie budget is very small. Obviously you should still be eating an appropriate amount of protein over…

There are quite a few veggies that are low calorie, filling, and are tasty enough to snack on without dip. The ones I eat when I just want to feel full without a bunch of calories …

We definitely use a mix of US/UK spellings in Canada. This gets further reinforced when you work a lot with a particular spelling (eg. we use spell 'colour' with the 'u' but every …

Not necessarily. A roll of the dice is considered independent variables, however, a weather system year over year probably isnt an independent variable

Really depends where you live for the hitchhiking thing. Its pretty common in small towns / small islands

Gravity travels at the speed of Causality, and that isn't changed in water

They are easy enough to tell apart when you look at them full size on a desktop monitor. But when you have a couple google services open in different browser tabs, well now those v…

Its a quick intro to computability theory. There is a progression of more and more complicated 'machines' on the way from Finite Automata towards Turing Machines. This article goes…

I always think of Jim Carry in Bruce Almighty spelling out B-E-A-Utiful Surprisingly it helps with words that have that 'eau' mash of vowels.

From what I understand, a tetrachromat has (and expresses) the normal green cone, normal red cone, normal blue cone, as well as the cone associated with either protanomaly or deute…

You can. I used to work for an ISP and every WiFi access point I installed had Ethernet+DC over the same cat6 cable. Still got 100 megabit speeds

Just echoing this, (Canada) my optometrist caught my glaucoma early using that machine that shoots a burst of air at your eye. He referred me to an opthalmologist who said there is…
