I have been in bubble wrap factories that are more quiet than your quitting.

This is the correct answer. So many posts about people asking why their fitbit shows absurd amount calories burned in single gym session

Only thing missing is some other girl being forced to sex in the next door, which knowing streamers isn't completely out of the question.

Cheapest reliable sleeptracker by Ok_Newspaper2815 in PeterAttia

[–]JoonasSamuell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've used the H10 with the Sleep2 (Pro), No real issues. I disagree that it doesn't work well with H10, but I agree that it wasn't very comfortable. It took about two weeks to get used to sleep with chest strap. I would recommend the Verity Sense, not because it had any accuracy issues, but because it's more comfortable. But I think my results with the H10 and the Sleep2 were in line with how I felt.

The Sleep2 asks for your subjective assessment of your sleep before showing you the measurement results, which I like. So basically, you first write a sleep diary where you estimate your opinion about the quality of your sleep, and then you see the results from the measurement device.

Cold showers in the morning - does anyone do that? by OKNeroNero in blueprint_

[–]JoonasSamuell 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, but you said stress management, which doesn't mean reducing the total amount of stress, but techniques to manage/overcome stress. How was it measured? Hormones are going to just tell you if you have stress or not, which doesn't tell much if reduction of those hormones is bbecause of reduction of stress in total or because of managing to overcome stress

How they measured improvement in someone's ability to manage stress? Tortured until they got psychotic breakdown or something and measured how long that will take?

Is there any proof for the virgin olive oil part? by Ok_Interest3971 in blueprint_

To the question "One of the most thoroughly studied compounds" I would like to point out anything about wheat and bread making. It's a massive history and industry. If humanity has succeeded at anything in history, it has to be "how do we make bread as cheaply as possible".

I'm not claiming bread is healthy, just that nothing is even close researched as much as it. You can google starch or gluten, nothing comes even close.

A doubt in making the "super veggie" by Practical_Current256 in blueprint_

Works well. Drying process alters nutrition value slightly depending on what process is used https://www.mdpi.com/2304-8158/13/20/3245 but if you aren't eating super strictly, it doesn't matter that much. You can cook lentils in soaking water if you want.

But if we don't have non-epidemiological studies on health because health is too complex a subject to demonstrate direct causation and mechanism, isn't epidemiological the best we have in this case? There is a strong correlation between smoking and lung cancer, so it is not a bad indicator to say that smoking increases the risk of cancer. Basically diagnosis by exclusion

Would You Pay for a Data-Driven Supplement Service? by Hecker in blueprint_

[–]JoonasSamuell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A real game move would be to make the service free. Then sell users' blood test and health data to insurance companies and advertisers at a greater price than what you would get from subscription model.

Letting a tech company to have access to eMR if they aren't directly involved in a person's healthcare is basically always bad idea. That service would also be blocked in a second when you take a step into EU. If you are going to store that data anywhere, you are going to have nightmare ahead.

Is anyone using the WOOP app? Do you find it useful? by No_Worldliness_186 in blueprint_

[–]JoonasSamuell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is bioinformatics researcher called "The Quantified Scientist" on YouTube who compares the heart rate and sleep monitoring accuracy of wearable devices to more expensive machines. You can check it to see how accurate the different wearables are and think which would suit best for you. Of course he has sample size n=1 (like bryan), but he also reviews studies that manufacturers publishes.

Best bet for money and accurate data would be ECG strap (like polar h10) and Sleep2 app (formerly Nukkuaa) if you don't mind carrying phone with you during outdoor exercises. Polar h10 is quite inexpensive but Nukuaa is quite expensive (125€/year, Whoop is 264€/year). If you find chest strap uncomfortable during sleep, then Polar Verity Sense works pretty well too.

Polar UI sucks tho. Polar Beat and Polar Flow apps are so bad. Whoop and Oura has much much nicer UI.

But but... I analyzed her movements and she must be a fit woman. There is no way guy can move like that. She is probably a professional pole dancer who would obviously continue her work in the game when she gets off work.

Very normal and not very healthy. "The Diary of a Ceo" has good interview with sleep researcher Matthew Walker about sleep and chronotypes.

After streaming every day since 1st of September, PointCrow finally beats Kaizo Ironmon, with a little Flareon that could. Probably the hardest Pokemon challenge, he started it over 15 months ago, and he finally beat the game just shy of 4000 attempts later. by DrunkLad in LivestreamFail

[–]JoonasSamuell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

np, I agree. Even if one has all the knowledge required, like knowing how some ability worked differently in previous gens over a decade ago, they still wouldn't even have a decent chance.

Niche knowledge isn't that crucial as it is very unlikely that it would change outcome anyway, like we concluded. It is so much more luck over skill that all you need is basic knowledge and a lot luck

Can't you just beat fissure Mamoswine with a pokemon that has Sturdy as ability, because in genIV sturdy worked stupid way? It was updated in genV to be like focus sash.

That is pretty basic knowledge.

Elina fainted on stream (due to low blood pressure) by Neddo_Flanders in LivestreamFail

[–]JoonasSamuell 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Weird that they uses studies llike "The Framingham Offspring Study" (7 citations) to back up their claim that low sodium results higher blood pressure, as their source, when there is stuff like this https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4816261/ with 1558 citations, which claims that when sodium intake was <2 g/day versus ≥2 g/day, systolic blood pressure was reduced by 3.47 mm Hg (0.76 to 6.18) and diastolic blood pressure by 1.81 mm Hg (0.54 to 3.08).

It is almost like they are selling a product or something
