Beautiful yet terrifying. I'm glad that regex isn't something I'll ever have to touch.
It's not that bad. AutoRegex[0] and regex gen [1] make it more accessible than ever. [0]: https://www.autoregex.xyz/ [1]: https://regex-generator.olafneumann.org

#42Is the muscle loss a side effect of the drug or of the weight loss?
I can't find any evidence that GLP-1 are catabolic to muscle mass. There is no evidence I can find that GLP-1s do anything above what calorie restriction does.
There is a linear relationship between calorie restriction and fat loss down to under 10% body fat. There is so much wrong information on calorie restriction from studies done on people who were literally starving with already very low body fat %. Then apply that to people with 25% body fat is just wrong.
Westerners trying to lose weight don't have this problem. I think part of the obesity epidemic is this insane idea that calorie restriction is bad. Everyone kind of understands the thermodynamics of calories in / calories out. Everyone even kind of understands the benefits of fasting. At the same time though there is this nonsense that if you restrict calories too much you start burning all this muscle mass. It is patently absurd.
Add up the calories of what a 250lb bodybuilder is eating for contest prep to lose fat and you will see they are "starving" too.

Isn’t everything naturally occurring? It all originates from earth, where else would it come from?
They did specify "molecule". Certainly not every pharmaceutical occurs naturally, and other materials such as Teflon don't either.
Things that aren't naturally occurring would be supernatural, no?

#46What does "naturally occurring" mean in this context?

Some elements don’t occur naturally and need to be formed artificially / by force by smashing together atoms that would never smash together in nature (in some cases because those atoms in turn also don’t exist in nature).
Although pedantic, it does challenge what we really mean when we say "natural". Just like what we mean when we say "chemicals". Everything is chemicals.

I’m not sure what this brings to the conversation. Are you able to attest to the correctness of what Sonnet claims?
