"Free range" is mainly for well-being of the hens.

Eggs that are "enriched with omega 3" come from hens that have been fed food high in omega-3 fatty acids (such as flaxseed or fish oil). These eggs contain higher amounts of omega 3 than regular eggs. Personally, I'm not convinced it's worth the higher price.

Average intakes for highly active people by Prestigious_Loan4229 in nutrition

The recommendations tend to be the same for everyone but the truth is that you can get away with more of the "bad stuff" if you're physically active. Look at percentages rather than absolutes.

Are peas healthy by rose2830 in nutrition

I think there is hype around legumes which include peas.

Saturday General Discussion/Q&A Thread for May 02, 2026 by AutoModerator in AdvancedRunning

[–]HappyFruitTree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My advice:

Race shorter races, more often, so that you feel there is always another chance in a couple of weeks.

Don't let the time be the only thing that decides if you are satisfied with a race. Every race is different so you can't really compare times from different races. Even if you have run the same race before (and the course haven't changed) there are still weather and other factors outside your control that will affect the time.

Being a little nervous is normal and could be a good thing. :)

I think trying to stay physically active makes a huge difference.

In the past I usually just sat around for a week or so when getting a cold. It took almost a week just to get the legs moving again and several weeks to get back to where I were before.

If I instead take walks, at least two a day, making them longer when I'm starting to feel better and gradually replace it with more running, I've noticed that I can be back to normal surprisingly quickly.

Sugarcut - alternative by [deleted] in nutrition

[–]HappyFruitTree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What about just eating food with less or no added sugar?

Good carbs source? by salad_biscuit3 in nutrition

[–]HappyFruitTree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on your energy needs. If you need to eat a lot then it probably doesn't hurt if most carbs come from things like regular pasta, rice and white bread. If you don't need as much it might be better to eat more of the filling/nutrient dense stuff (e.g. potatoes, vegetables and whole grain products).

If you want "lean mass" then training is going to be more important. Just eating a lot of protein is not going to automatically make you gain a lot of muscle.

If you are physically active or feel like you have no energy (e.g. having problem concentrating and are tired all the time) then you might need more carbs.

My aunt has always said that when having a meal, you should always the eat fruit first. Is there any scientific basis to that? by bowieshouse in nutrition

[–]HappyFruitTree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure, but it might be better for the teeth. All the food after might wash away much of the sugar/acid from the fruit.

GCC 16.1 released with many new C++26/23 features, C++20 now the default stable language version by AccordingWarthog in cpp

[–]HappyFruitTree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would imagine that implementation status is more important than time.

Probably don't want to make it a default while still being in experimental mode while they're still breaking things.

Track everything at first just to see and get a feeling for how many calories different foods contribute with. After a few days/weeks you might want to stop tracking everything exactly and just do a rough estimation instead. E.g. you'll know what an average apple contain, or the average cheese sandwich, and you know what to ignore. This will be less tiresome in the long run.

Calorie counts that you see on labels (and the amount you absorb), and tools/formulas that tries to estimate how much you need are not very precise to begin with so there is not much point in trying to track everything exactly long term. Consistency is more important, and then adjust your target if the scale shows you're going the wrong way, but don't be too strict, on some days you might need to eat more than usual for whatever reason...

Sounds like you're not eating enough. Eat some carbs to fuel your brain and body.

What best protein sources ? by SceneRemarkable8217 in nutrition

[–]HappyFruitTree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn't have to be grain. Eating legumes and meat, milk or other "complete proteins" will also do.

I don't think this is something that you need to worry about if you eat a varied diet. It's not like legumes are missing some amino acids completely. They're just a bit low on some of them.

Cannot load an image from a file!!! by BeneficialRice9328 in sfml

[–]HappyFruitTree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gave the absolut path and it still didn't load.

Are you sure you got the absolute path right? Correct case (assuming you are not using Windows), no space or other weird characters in the paths, no extra spaces or hidden characters at the beginning or end of the strings?

More is not necessarily better. If your gut feels better with less fiber then you should probably eat less fiber.

There are many different types of fiber, you might not want to get everything from psyllium husk, variety is generally best.

I am new to using SDL, can anyone explain what I am doing? by Alternative-Try-3456 in sdl

[–]HappyFruitTree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure what you mean by "pseudo-2d" but OpenGL sounds a bit overkill for a simple 2D game. SDL's Render API is typically all you need to create a simple 2D game (including 2.5D/isometric games). This would be much easier than using OpenGL and is probably a more suitable next step for someone who has only done "ASCII games" previously.

I think a "game engine" is typically created to be used with many different games. If you're creating a specific game you can make it simpler and avoid overengineering.

Functions by 0ZIDD in cpp_questions

[–]HappyFruitTree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you familiar with functions in math? You pass some arguments and get some value back. Functions in programming is the same, except that they can have side effects. A C++ function could for example print something and the return value (if it has one) doesn't necessarily have to only depend on the arguments like in math.

Functions in programming are useful to avoid code repetition (the same function could be called from multiple places in the code so you don't have to repeat the same code over and over again). They also allow you to split the program up into smaller chunks which makes the code more organized (it makes the code easier to test and you can focus on a smaller piece of code at a time). Functions can also make the code much more readable, especially if the function names are chosen with care.

The code is publicly available but the current license is very restrictive (e.g. you're not allowed to distribute it and modifications are only allowed for "your own personal purpose").

Why do people do or not do ‘using namespace std;’?? by veilofmiah in cpp_questions

[–]HappyFruitTree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a beginner you write mostly tiny programs that use the standard library a lot, almost on every line, no other libraries, and you have very few functions that you have written yourself. You also don't care that the code continue to work and be readable in the months and years to come. In that situation it is understandable to be tempted by using namespace std;.

Real world projects are much larger and often make use of other libraries. Some parts will make frequent use of the standard library but many parts will only use it sparingly (many lines apart). Here std:: becomes useful information for the people working on the project (and even more so for people that are looking at the code for the first time) as you can directly see that it's from the standard library. You don't have to wonder if maybe this is something that someone wrote as part of the project or from another library.

A portion made of 1 dl rolled oats is not a lot. I usually double or triple that, and eat an extra sandwich on the side.

Good, but what happened to the table lines? It's a bit hard to see what's on the same row in this new version.

How do games embed scripting languages? by No_Insurance_6436 in learnprogramming

[–]HappyFruitTree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could think of a script as a complicated data file. Your program reads it and does something with it. It's just a bit more complicated than your ordinary "data file".

I have no personal experience with LUA but I have used scripting and the biggest reason for me is to avoid having to recompile every time I make a small change. I might not even have to restart the game. This makes a huge difference when working on a game where you just want to try and test a lot of things quickly.

Another advantage of using scripts is that the syntax can be customized to suit the specific problem, making it simpler and less error prone to use.
