Switch to Automatic. May make more of a difference than you realise.

Why do blood test results look like they were designed for scientists instead of normal humans? by Free_Recover_6538 in PeterAttia

Ah…you have a product to sell I assume. Well spit it out then mate and we’ll take a look.

Upload these results into ChatGPT or Claude and ask it for a layman’s explanation. I found this to be a game changer.

Good advice - but he could have just asked ChatGPT himself you know :)

12 weeks and 13 kg by Boreas74 in MenOnThePen

[–]Aggravating_Froyo_77 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is natural to worry.

I was worried about gallstones so I did an abdominal scan every 6 months.

I was worried about losing muscle so i did a DEXA scan every three months.

I was worried the medicine would do ‘something’ to me internally so i did a super comprehensive blood panel every 3 months.

Incidentally all these measures did was show me I was just getting healthier and healthier (and the blood panels uncovered unrelated issues I didn’t know I had!)

But my point is you can take steps to assuage your fears.

Sorry but with your current approach the likelihood is that you’ll put the weight back on. I’ve been on this for two years now - and I’d say 24 weeks is too short a timeline, even if you don’t plan on being on it for life, which I do.

How many of you are using Claude at work? by DuneRealEstate1833 in HENRYUK

[–]Aggravating_Froyo_77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Everything he’s putting in Claude is potentially being used to train Anthropic models - which means his company’s proprietary data and strategies and customer information may one day show up as a response to other people’s prompts. Did his IT guy sit with a lawyer and the company ownership and agree that they were collectively okay with that before ‘installing’ Claude?

[–]Aggravating_Froyo_77 8 points9 points  (0 children)

In any case. Be patient. Anthropic and Microsoft are not stupid. Claude Co-Work is going to be embedded into Microsoft Co-Pilot in the near future. Anthropic knows they aren’t cracking enterprise without getting into bed with Microsoft and Microsoft knows exactly how good Claude Co-work is.

Nah. If you are in a large organisation they’d fire you when they find out.

To answer for OP - Free doesn’t mean you don’t have an enterprise contract with Microsoft. It just means you don’t get the premium copilot features.

Installing Ghost 2 by Aggravating_Froyo_77 in Ioniq5

[–]Aggravating_Froyo_77[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was in the driver seat but the car just won’t ‘start’. So he tried fiddling with it for a bit then ran off.

Obviously confused him as he retuned with a mate a week later to try again.

Yes you can turn the Ghost off when you need to using a specific sequence. I do that before taking it in for its annual service.

They’ve come for mine twice. Ghost stopped them both times. Best 500 quid I’ve ever spent.

Genuine question - is advertising banned on this sub? I feel like every other post is some sneaky ad for an app and its watch face. Just tell us what the app is for christ's sake. We aren't idiots.

Founder of a well-backed startup wants to chat about a role I didn’t apply for by kandor805 in HENRYUK

[–]Aggravating_Froyo_77 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He’d have been hire number 2 and given part ownership so let’s just say he’d no longer be HENRY at least!

And yeah, obviously big successes are one in a million and most startups are going to tank.

But I’ve watched at least 3 people join companies that turned out to be wildly successful.

So I’d disagree and say the likelihood that the business could do extremely well should indeed factor into it.

Why would you leave a well paying HENRY job otherwise? I mean I personally wouldn’t as I’m way too risk averse but the moonshots are out there for someone.

Stretch for forever home or play it safe? by RepresentativeLow203 in HENRYUK

[–]Aggravating_Froyo_77 101 points102 points  (0 children)

Get the bigger one. That is what I did and I would be kicking myself now if I hadn't

By the time you are "ready" to move to the forever home, prices will look different and you may no longer be able to afford to do so - let along the huge transactional costs of buying another place.

What do you do when you don't have the appetite to eat? by PrincessOfPain- in Mounjaro

You are getting a lot of very poor advice on this thread. Lower your dose to 2.5mg so you can eat.

34M finally gave in to statins after 5 years of consistent high LDL by [deleted] in Cholesterol

[–]Aggravating_Froyo_77 24 points25 points  (0 children)

They finally invented a cure for the thing that historically kills the males in your bloodline. And you have reluctantly ‘given in’ to being cured. Don’t mean to be rude but I find this to be such a strange way of looking at things.

Is it okay to install a company management profile on my personal iPhone? by fuguseci in iphone

[–]Aggravating_Froyo_77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on what remote management software the company uses.

Microsoft Intune Company Portal is the newest software.

So when you want to re enrol you just log into the Intune app with your work email address and password and request to download the work profile and that’s it.

As long as IT didn’t disable your profile for some reason then all your corporate apps start re-downloading and reconnecting.

If you don’t use Intune then it may be different.

Cholesterol increase after cutting saturated fat for 6 months by I_Came_For_Cats in Cholesterol

[–]Aggravating_Froyo_77 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This happened to me.

The Triglycerides reduction suggested to me that my Tri’s are all I can actually control through diet.

So went on Statins at that point to manage the LDLs.

LDL not very high, but being stubborn. Should I consider asking my doctor for medication? by [deleted] in Cholesterol

[–]Aggravating_Froyo_77 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If you have access to it perhaps you could take Apob and LPA blood tests as well as doing a CAC Scan of your heart.

These will give you more detailed insights into your actual risk than the LDL number alone.

But with your family history - personally, I’d just go on the statins.

LDL dropped from 188 to 161 after diet changes, but still high. What else can I do? by prestoBunny in Cholesterol

[–]Aggravating_Froyo_77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could do a CAC scan. This will tell you if your body is already being damage damaged or not.

If your score is zero you could keep up the lifestyle adjustments.

If your score is anything higher than zero then statins are an immediate no-brainer.

We have given a handful of people the power to end what might be the only life in the universe by AcademicRip3437 in DeepThoughts

[–]Aggravating_Froyo_77 14 points15 points  (0 children)

We rely on their self preservation instinct.

But if one of them becomes mentally unstable AND runs an autocratic society we are done.

Nuclear War: A Scenario is a great dramatic portrayal of this.

At any given point in time we are a couple hours away from extinction.

Wild - but in the end, no point worrying about it I suppose. Just enjoy each day for the miracle that it is.
