Great, thanks! I'll check it out. I've opened up discussions on the the project page. Definitely not an MS fan myself, but not sure if others like gitlab would be a suitable replacement.

Looks cool! I'd like to take a look. I've been working on profile management recently so that you can create custom word lists. You can specify a list of solution candidates as well as a list of strategic picks, and then generate decision trees based on those lists. A neat trick I've found is that since NYT wordle has not repeated any solutions, you can remove all historical solutions from the candidate list. There are only ~700 words remaining, so almost all my recent attempts solve it on the third try. Connect with me on github if you'd like to collaborate or would like to share ideas.

I'm guessing using a Wordle solver would be cheating?

Then after it's successful, all our poor and homeless in capitalist nations will start defecting to North Korea for a higher standard of living.

I think you should marry an overweight black single mother in her 40s with a charming personality to set a good example and show the world just how just and not racist you are.

For me, I stay in shape because that is a habit I have been able to forge due to my perseverance and quality of character. When I choose a woman to be with, I will choose a woman who represents similar values, one of which is not being a lazy entitled fat slob who thinks they are entitled to a partner who is not fat, lazy or entitled.

Sure, tolerance for the flaws of others is important in a relationship, but if you're unable to maintain a functional relationship with anyone, then it's probably because you had more tolerance for your own flaws than the flaws of your potential dating partners.

I'll bet that nobody would kick up much of a fuss if they decided to ban a photo of an anorexic model. Tess Holiday, being morbidly obese, obviously suffers from disordered eating due to a food addiction, yet is paraded around as some kind of paragon of moral virtue, while pictures of women with anorexia would be censored for being harmful to little girls. But seriously, do you think that presenting a morbidly obese woman as a socially acceptable norm sends girls a message about body image that is any less harmful?

Perhaps some party who seeks to bid on a contract to build a new transit system for the bay area?

So the article does have some valid points that differences in digestion efficiency, individual calorie expenditure or inaccuracies in listed nutrients, etc. could be sources of inaccuracy when planning your diet. However, what the average overweight person will take away from this is: Counting calories is useless, I might as well just give up.

Having been raised by a very obese mother, I know this attitude all too well. I too, was overweight and desired to keep my weight down and also believed that calorie restriction would mess up your metabolism and eventually make you even fatter.

Eventually, I challenged myself to stop eating sugar since I have a family history of diabetes, and luckily found that I was able to break through my previous sticking point. This inspired me to try to add a little more rigor into my routine, which eventually paid off big time. Now I'm lean and muscular and go to the gym regularly. I find that calorie counting with a food scale is VERY effective.

So I tend to find the fatalistic attitude people have regarding weight loss to be very destructive, not only to themselves and others.

Probably because you were using stolen trade secrets for your recipe.

Even just 100 calories a day over your total caloric expenditure translates into about 52lbs of fat over 5 years.

Sedentary describes about 90% of the US population over 25. Clearly BMI is not a good measure for many folks, but everyone with a weight problem wants to think they're the exception. You're never going to get them to go get an accurate body fat assessment or get them in the gym, because that would require them to actually acknowledge that there's a problem.

Hey!, I'm not fat, I'm just big boned!

Americans have totally lost perspective on what is considered a healthy weight and a healthy diet. People in general consistently underestimate their own body fat percentage, even in the bodybuilding community where there are six-pack abs abound. I'm pretty sure any doctor that would suggest weight loss to patient with a BMI of 25+ alongside a six-pack, wouldn't keep his license for very long, Yet, somehow countless obese people are so delusional that they think that's what happened to them. Denial ain't a river in Egypt.

I'm sure the folks who do strength training and intense exercise might add something to the statistics, but I'd be very surprised if it skewed the numbers by more than a pound.

Based on historical precedent around fusion press releases, I would venture to guess is that huge pile of cash in the "hundreds of millions" is starting to run out.

I had assumed (perhaps incorrectly) that by reversing age, that most of these age related ailments would be cured. I'd be willing to bet that would be the case for a large number of them. I'd also be willing to bet that the natural pessimism and inflexibility that is typical in old folks is just a result of fading memory capacity and reduction in plasticity of the brain, which I also bet would also be remedied by reversing aging.

I think we're ready, at least i know I am eager to have the body of a 25 year old for the next 1000 years. On the other hand, if I have to live 900 years in a wheelchair, then maybe death is the better alternative. I might stick it out for another 50 or so just to see if they kinks get ironed out.

People will probably live on average to be over 1000, maybe 10,000 because people will only die from accidents. Science will advance at a faster rate because we don't have to spend the first 25 years or so of life on primary education. The next problem will be that without new generations, human evolution will be at a standstill. But, perhaps not totally. If we can direct our own evolution using simulation and very limited reproduction, say with the average age of a parent being about 1000 years or more, then perhaps we can still find ways to advance as a species. We might be able to grow new bodies and perhaps even new brains for ourselves. When we want to alter our DNA, we could somehow become chimeras for a period of time until the old DNA is completely replaced by the new upgraded DNA. In this way, our species gets all the evolutionary benefits of death without actually having to die.
