his comment is trash and you supporting it makes you trash as well. please get up to date on how medical research is performed.
also FWIW I am currently holding several hundred thousand dollars worth of bitcoin and a few hundred ethereum. I am as bullish as they come. Price predictions like this are just used to dupe retail and create bag holders after the bubble pops.
You are making an outlandish prediction that has been made before. I am simply pointing that out. If you make ridiculous predictions like this someone is going to get hurt.
Ignore the tether fud, old news. Lots of stable coins out there now that are fully regulated and partnering with US government (USDC).
will you eat your own dick on camera if this prediction doesn't pan out? lmao
yeah I am moving from a Jr. 1 BR to a modern 2 BR and reducing my rent in the process. :)
they weren't coerced into anything. independent research and internal research at lyft showed drivers preferred being labeled as contractors due to the flexibility that offered. the drivers got what they wanted here.
from the article:
"Health authorities found virus strains in humans and in mink which showed decreased sensitivity against antibodies, potentially lowering the efficacy of future vaccines, Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said at a press conference."
“The mutated virus in mink may pose a risk to the effectiveness of a future vaccine,” Frederiksen said, adding that it “risks being spread from Denmark to other countries.”
Poor minks.
use examine.com or search for scientific literature yourself to sort through the mess.
this post deserves a large, large, helping of down votes. there is easily available evidence based approaches to necessary micronutrients/supplements needed to maintain a variety of different health standards and keep illnesses at bay. denying that in a huff is pure ignorance. Check out Dr. Rhonda on youtube or Dr. Peter Attia's podcast the drive (not nutrition specific, but covered in depth at times).
In over 12 years of using psychedelics intermittently, I have never met a daily user of any of them. It's just not possible. I have met people that abused them slightly for sure, but not like the other drugs you listed. Those are all extremely high risk in the daily abuse category of addiction. This simply isn't a fair comparison. Fiendy/physically addictive drugs =/ Psychedelics
I take 1-2 doses per month (in the 25 microgram range) with 2.5-5mg THC (via mint edible) and that has done wonders for me both in terms of mood, acceptance, and empathy towards others around me. I don't know if it will fix someone with severe issues, but for me it is sort of a maintenance thing that keeps my cognitive health flowing in the right direction and my overall sense of well being positive. It's certainly not for everyone, but definitely a net positive for many.
every company in china is considered an SOE... state owned enterprise. This is known. There is no chance that the chinese government doesn't have a seat at the table of their equiv of the board of directors. That would contradict how corporations in China are allowed to operate.
I work at Lyft and have to work directly with Google on several of their various enterprise offerings.
Their support is downright AWFUL. Getting someone from Google to help is so challenging that they have decided that in order to work with them on their enterprise offerings you must go through a 3rd party vendor. Their third party vendors are all small companies with which my organization has very little trust for.
I will never knowingly try to do anything with Google again after the hellish experience I have had dealing with them and their vendors so far, it just isn't worth it.
this was my experience with keto as well, every time I had to requit carbs I had to go through a multi day to week long carb withdrawal/craving cycle, and the binge risk was so high.
cutting weight is only useful if it isn't going to instantly be regained, especially when you are making so many sacrifices to lose it!
with time restricted eating it is typically recommended to have your last meal by 6 or 7 if you intend to sleep by 10pm. There are a number of health consequences to eating so late. The one most people care about has to do with the pancreas receiving melatonin and slowly beginning to shut down for the night, so when you eat late it has a lower insulin response than it would otherwise leading to more calories being stored as fat instead of being used as energy. There are some metabolic consequences as well.
10/14 is the typical time restricted feeding window. the other most common is 8/16, and if you go lower you hit 6/18 which is considered intermittent fasting. These numbers matter in the context of clinical trials for various definitions. If you wish to remain naive to the subject feel free to ignore my initial comment. I gave you everything you needed there to figure it out for yourself.
My experience is the same. TRE/IF are much easier to adhere to then typical caloric restriction diets or more extreme diets like Paleo or Keto. Skipping a meal is something I get used to after a few days, constantly depriving myself every meal is so damn hard.
There's subtle differences here. What this title refers to is commonly referred to as "time restricted feeding" or in humans "time restricted eating" if you are curious to learn more, google for a pod cast with Sachin Panda and Rhonda Patrick. They get into the details of this style of dieting at a mechanistic level really well.
Basically doing this over the long run will make you live longer, have a healthier metabolic system, lose weight, have healthier glucose levels, etc.
I'm on a mixture of TRE and intermittent fasting, and let me tell you, it works. I do it for longevity and energy. Weight management is just a bonus since now I can eat more of what I want without gaining weight since I am doing it in a smaller number of hours in the day.
thanks for pulling out these tidbits, very helpful.
you ever take a lyft or uber in NYC? you'd be surprised how many people are willing to pay those prices.
don't know why this is getting down voted, all of you folks using lyft/uber.. get ready for the prices to double or triple.
Prices up, sorry consumers.
total earnings down, sorry full time drivers.
hourly earnings up, yay part time drivers.
not only will they cap it as you have said, but generally you aren't allowed to be employed by multiple employers. almost every driver drives for both companies. the drivers are going to get shafted here in total earnings. they will work fewer hours and make more per hour, but won't be able to drive crazy hours on both apps any more.
how do you find those companies?
US GDP is larger than EU GDP.
The next step is back channel reference checks
I disagree with a lot of this comment, but the largest most glaring mistake is around the perception that robinhood is without fees. Robinhood takes their cut by creating a larger than normal bid/ask spread. I promise you their cut is more than $.50 and most likely > $7 (at least in Crypto land where I have witnessed this behavior). To think that HFT firms are using this data to only front run orders also feels pretty naive to me, but I'm no expert.
Lyft has 2000 people in their tech org (maybe 1500 engineers)
and the lowest paid engineers at Lyft are probably ~300 total comp.
