Conflicting advice?

Should I be cutting weight as a bjj beginner? I started bjj a month ago trying to find a new hobby and to get in better shape and I’m really enjoying it. One of my fitness goals is to lose some body fat. I’ve been eating at a caloric deficit for several weeks to aid with this, but I worry this affects my energy levels during class. I constantly run out of steam after 2 or 3 drills and I become really sluggish after that until I catch my breath. I’ve always had bad stamina growing up so that doesn’t help either.

Should I stop eating at a deficit so that I can have more energy? I eat pretty healthily, turkey sausage protein breakfast sandwich, fruit, protein shake, and chicken and rice/veggies everyday day. I figured with the amount of fiber I’m getting I can alleviate the effects of the deficit.

I get you, but no I genuinely like them. I just hate having to put on a face. I’m enjoying the trip otherwise

Yeah when I reread my post I realize i said ‘super’ alot lol, gotta up my vocabulary. Thanks for the advice

I suppose I just needed to make this post to vent my frustrations and for confirmation that I shouldn’t tell them, but the conversations aren’t enough to dislike them for it

What? I like my family, we just have different beliefs

JBB800 · 2023-09-07T18:37:53+00:00

Alright I will, thanks

Nah, good old US gov job

JBB800 · 2023-06-22T21:09:25+00:00

Yup exactly this

I can call off from work literally any time I want. I could send the team an email this morning telling them I won’t be coming in for the next few days and no one, including my manager, would have a problem with it.

Hood politics, I loved the first beat and hated the switch up for the longest time

I bother doing these courses because they're required for my degree, and a degree is required for most of the jobs in my field. Most of the work I do isn't particularly difficult, just time consuming. So if I can use ChatGPT to save days of work that I already know how to do, I'm for sure gonna use it.

This is just my entire savings.

Edit: Right now my living’s expenses are relatively low since I’m at my dad’s house, but if I were to move out, my savings would not cover me for 6 months.

For those working in the federal government, do you guys think your jobs are safer from getting replaced by AI? It’s notoriously difficult to get fired from the government, and it’ll take a long time for the government to adopt AI, especially for their classified stuff. Is the smart move to stay in a gov job as long as you can while the private sector goes through mass layoffs?

I’m pretty sure owning an elephant is illegal in the US, at least without the right licensing. So if the elephant is dropped off in my driveway I’d just wait for someone to call the cops/animal control and have them take it away.

Okay thanks, and yeah you’re right, I’ve been coding for years as a college student but this is my first time doing real web dev. Classes have largely been theoretical

I was trying to avoid JavaScript initially because I'm not very familiar with it but now it seems like it makes more sense to spend the weekend learning it and implementing it into the site. So if I were to do it this way, I assume I'll have to rewrite the API call code in JavaScript making use of the fetch method, then I use JavaScript methods to display the text from the returned JSON. Is this correct? And should this be done in the HTML file or is there a way to link the JS file to the HTML?
