Modern people eat raw meat all the time

  • Fish (sashimi) proof
  • Chicken (I swear, they do it in Japan) proof
  • Beef (tartare is very popular in france) proof
  • Shrimp (SEA loves their spiced shrimp) proof
  • Eggs (Bodybuilders do this sometimes, especially after the Rocky Films) proof

You can eat raw meat, and it is delicious. The problems come from the industrialization of farming - meat is often butchered in a setting where they assume the meat will be cooked, co-mingled with many other animals, and frozen delivered, unfrozen for display, etc. If you have a animal you know is healthy, and you butcher it yourself... you can eat the meat raw with little risk.

This is why ground beef must be cooked well done all the way through (the exposed surface area to the industrial process is all of the meat), while a good steak is OFTEN eaten Rare/Blue (or medium rare) (the inside of the steak can be rare because only the outside is exposed to the industrial process).

Human Stomach PH is on the same level as vultures, we CAN eat raw uncooked meat, and deal with lots of pathogens/bacteria... just not all of the pathogens and bacteria.

The Diabetes in SEA is a real puzzle. Rice has always been a staple of the local diet, so that can't really account for the rise in type 2 diabetes.

If I had to speculate its a combination of both increased carbohydrate consumption (glucose spikes), process food (glucose spikes, inflammation), and the wide-spread adoption of industrial oils (inflammation, and attacks cholesterol). We know that most dietary problems come from mixing carbohydrates and fat (randle cycle inflammation)

I think glycemic index is only useful in the context of dosing insulin, not for gauging overall health of food. I find the carbohydrate-insulin model of health most compelling. The big difference is it's the TIME of elevated blood sugar that is more important then the HEIGHT of the spike. Obviously reducing both is good, shorter time, lower spike, but if you have to focus on one, time has the biggest metabolic payoff.

haha, not sure if that was sarcasm (the internet makes us all skeptical, heh), but I've found CGMs to be a massively useful tool. Where I live I can order them from aliexpress for $20, and that gives me two weeks of biohacking protentional. I've found the best benefit by giving them to my friends so they can see what their bodies are doing, it's been my sneaky way of convincing people to go low carb.

Great writeup

[CC @JohnnyEnzyme@lemm.ee ]

Just want to add if you ever want to debug what a sweetener is doing to your glucose or insulin there is a easy test you can do at home. Wear a CGM (Continuous glucose monitor), which are fairly inexpensive and OTC now. When your blood sugar is flat and stable, take a sample of the sweetener by itself, eat it, and watch the glucose response for the next hour. If it goes up, then there is glucose in it, if it goes down, then the sweetener causes a insulin response.

I want boolean algebra in my search syntax. Everything else feels like a toy

I've never used perks to decide if I'm going to take or leave a job, it's strictly compensation that matters.

It is self hosted

It is not on-prem

Currently there aren't enough tools for small communities. It's hard for a niche community to grow and flourish.

If you post something like 'BBQ is delicious', it becomes a open referendum for the entirety of Lemmy to tell you why everything you said is wrong. Everybody dog piles their own personal biases and issues. And that's fine for a general discussion.

lemmy needs smaller community safe spaces so the conversations can grow by interested parties, that's currently lacking. Like a subscriber only post, only seen by people who subscribe to a community. And then when it gets large enough, people can say I want this to be generally available. I think that would help a lot

100%. The core problem is inserted politics won't save a bad project, and since the project is bad the only interesting thing to talk about is the inserted politics.

A great project, or even just good, can insert whatever it likes and people will focus on the good parts and the inserted politics won't dominate the conversation.

My rule of thumb: if the only thing you hear about a project is how political it is, then it's a bad project and there is nothing else worth talking about.

Yeah, it's good for high frequency communication because its more resilient to noise and capacitive interference.

LVDS is just a standard for pairwise low voltage differential signaling. You still need a protocol on top of that to talk to the video controller.

The Friendly Carnivore community is a safe space to talk about Zero Carb ASF lifestyle, benefits, cooking, recipes, science, culture, and day to day living

!carnivore@lemm.ee

 

Assuming your really hungry, and you have a bunch of hard boiled eggs available.. how many can you eat until you are totally full?

 

If we MUST eat a entire bag of Oreos.

Which scenario is better?

  • Eat the entire bag in 30 minutes
  • Eat the bag slowly, and evenly throughout a day?

 

Wolfram alpha has a sunburn calculator:

I'm out in the sun much longer then the calculator suggests, but I dont get burned.

 

Cells divide and make new cells, is all life on Earth rooted in one super ancestor cell? Or are there parallel paths to cell creation?

 

Any recommendations on good introduction books for kids? Any science or engineering book would be good!

 

If a niche community has people that persistently downvote every post

  1. is that healthy for the community?
  2. is that healthy for lemmy in general?

Examples that come to mind are political communities, linus tech tips, diet communities, etc. There will be a group of people who will not make comments, posts, but will strictly downvote everything that is in the community.

This is a continuation of a discussion @Blaze@feddit.org and I started elsewhere, but it deserves it's own space for meta-moderation discussion.

I have one of those fancy MSI gaming monitors, with a built-in KVM. It's pretty infuriating. If there's no video input, it stops forwarding keyboard and mouse commands. No way to switch keyboard and mouse via the keyboard. You have to use the toggle button on the monitor buried under multiple menus.

I'm looking for a nice KVM that people can recommend. I mostly care about the keyboard and mouse switching. I guess that's a KM. Ideally it wouldn't take multiple seconds for the USB to register on the new device when I switch. Bonus points if I can switch just using a keyboard combination.

https://github.com/debauchee/barrier Is an open source software option, that basically forward your keyboard and mouse over the network between machines. It's interesting.

I have some very sensitive systems, and I wouldn't be comfortable installing binary blobs on them, and a few are off the network entirely. So this solution would be less than ideal, but it's really cool.

What's your favorite KVM? How many machines do you have hooked up right now to the computer using?
