Injustice Collecting. It’s so easy to create a perceived slight and collect it for the next time things blow up so you can throw it in their face. I know you don’t love me because you forgot to take the trash out 3 times in the last 6 months and you did that just because you hate me! It’s an immature coping…

You can also wrap in tinfoil or parchment paper and bake it (Oven at 400F, until temp of chicken is 160F). It comes out good just takes longer than from defrosted.

To reiterate: for the GOP, THIS BILL HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HEALTHCARE.

The free-market is not a magic wand. You don’t just say “free-market” and all problems are solved. Can you give one example of your “simple solution” for healthcare having worked any where, at any time in human history?

And, as a bonus, mushrooms are super forgiving to cook. http://lifehacker.com/why-its-so-hard-to-overcook-mushrooms-1780660622

For Amazon the actual hardware is meaningless, its just a way to get you to Amazon more. When they found out Kindle owners buy 400% more books, they realized just get the “budget” hardware in people’s hands and they are all yours. Echo is the same, if you have an echo, likely you are going to use Amazon more.

There are two types of things in the universe:

Seriously. Just get Adderall. It doesn’t magically solve all your problems, but instead of being worthless and getting nothing done and falling farther and farther behind, when i take it I have 4 hours of productivity. That gives me 20 hours of productivity for the week which is 20 times more than I had before.

College is an investment just like anything else, and people make bad investments all the time. The US as a society has decided that education, which historically has a really good return on investment, is not a good place for us to spend money. So students take the risk on whether the education that they choose…

Texas. Austin, Fort Worth, San Antonio, Dallas, Houston. All have lots of tech going on and lower house prices (although they are rising). Austin is the easiest place to have fun I’ve ever been. Dallas-Fort Worth is LA sized and has all the world class big city stuff but is much cheaper. Houston is cheaper still…

Works great for me. It’s made me realize that the main tool that your body has to prevent you from losing weight is just hunger. If you understand and know what your hunger feels like, it becomes much easier to ignore when it is in conflict with your eating goals.

Oh I guess I’m a bad person then because one time I gave an Oatmeal Creme Pie to a porcupine and it was awesome. I’m pretty sure it was the best day of that porcupine’s life! Although I guess now he has diabetes.

The scientific explanation is the straightforward one. You are eating as much as you are burning.

Unfortunately lots of nutrition information is junk. There is a lot of money in confusing the issue to sell weight loss tips and tricks, and bars, and pills and diet books. The only thing that actually matters is calorie deficit.

The idea of “survival mode” in the article and your summary is not supported by the evidence. Your body didn’t evolve to waste energy, and doesn’t magically burn less calories doing the same things. Here is the evidence from the article

Rondo is poison to every team he’s been on since the Celtics.

For me the “intrinsic motivation” that can actually be built is habit. It’s not about suddenly falling in love with exercise, its about having exercise be your default behavior. For any habit, the tipping point is when your default is to do the habit rather than not do it. If your default is to wait till you get…

Love how this clarifies the distinction between the two. For me its all about basing your confidence on reality. If you base it on arrogant assumptions about how great you think you are, you will be totally unprepared when reality rears its ugly head with evidence that you are not that great. Instead, work at…

So this is one thing that doesn’t cause balding, but doesn’t make it clear what does cause it. The medical name for it is androgenetic alopecia or male pattern baldness. People with it have a gene that causes certain hair follicles (ones in the pattern) to respond differently to dihydrotestosterone than hairs usually…

You have to understand that burnout is as inevitable as a car running out of gas. It’s going to happen if you keep driving. Either take the time you need to relax on a day to day basis, or you are going to need it all at once later. If you can convince yourself that you get more done when you work 40-50 hours a week…
