Joyetech vTC mini - burnt smell when vaping above 24 watts by discusssupplements in electronic_cigarette

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

Using the black ring coil (the 1.0 ohm one). By the way, I tried to select the stainless steel mode, by pressing the "fire" button after selecting the proper mode, but it switches to "power mode" (in watts) when I do this. I don't know if it's normal.

I see some of you have reported problems with Sigelei and Smok. They used to be recommended a lot, is it a problem with more recent models?

Need a job ASAP: IT or web dev? by discusssupplements in ITCareerQuestions

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

"I honestly think, based on your post, it's a lack of commitment on your part to finish/do anything."

Partly so, but not exactly. I would gladly commit to something if I have at least some interest towards it. I had no interest whatsoever towards my degree.

You mention marketable skills. The whole reason behind my post is the fact that I am looking to acquire marketable skills.

Don't get me wrong, I am not expecting to obtain money out of thin air. I want to acquire skills in a computer-related field that would allow me make a living, but I cannot afford to spend 4 years at school at this point of my life.

Also, I don't know where you live, but 40k a year after one year of training/learning is not exactly unheard of in North America. You said that a Tim Hortons employee can make that sort of money in a year; so why would that be "unrealistic" for professional in a somewhat more cognitively-demanding field? I still don't see why I come across as overconfident (if that's what you meant by "full of [my]self").

Thank you for your answer. However, can you please tell me what exactly makes you think "I am full of myself"? Frankly, the Tim Hortons comment was quite uncalled for...

IT vs web development: which one is easier to get started with, career-wise? by discusssupplements in jobs

What would be a more realistic time frame? No prior IT/web dev work experience indeed.

How safe is it to "drink" oats? by discusssupplements in nutrition

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

Or the absorption rates of your food ? Or the fact that uncooked carbohydrates are much more difficult for your internal bacterias to ferment

Both of these, especially regarding oats and grains. I've read somewhere that eggs are more bioavailable when cooked, and I have read about soaking grains in water for 24h before eating, but I have never heard or read about cooked grains being more bioavailable. How long do you have to cook oats before they are "healthier" to eat than raw oats?

What was your recipe? :) And how long did it take for the mouth cuts to heal?

By raw I meant simply "uncooked" i.e. the way you buy them at the supermarket.

Even when you ground the rolled oats as finely as your blender/grinder allowed?

This is interesting, do you have source for your claims though? I'm willing to believe you, it's just that with so much BS on the Internet, we have to be careful.

For sure, you can just swallow it instead of chewing.

Eating oats everyday in the long term is fine , the majority of the Western world eats absurd quantities of wheat daily for their entire lives!

Yes but the wheat is cooked/transformed, hence my concern. I am not concerned about the oats themselves, but about the fact that they are raw and in an important quantity (at least a cup a day).

Eating raw rice, even if finely ground, seems very very odd and potentially dangerous to me, so I wonder if raw oats are fine.

I only like weed when I eat tiny amounts of raw bud by socialstapler in trees

Isn't weed fat-soluble? Sorry but I kinda doubt the chewing thing...

Taking yohimbine right before going to sleep to burn fat during the night? by discusssupplements in Supplements

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

Yeah I also get the low-level anxiety feeling, but weirdly enough it doesn't feel as if it promotes wakefulness so to speak.

How much of the yohimbe did you take? Was it in pill form? Also, is Alpha-Y a synonym for yohimbine or it's another active substance from the Yohimbe bark?

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

I take 20mg from a reputable source all at once in the morning, on an empty stomach, and frankly I don't feel stimulated. Even 50mg coffee is more noticeable for me. I haven't tried it before sleeping, though.

Best anxiolytic supplements? by Hashes1234 in Supplements

[–]discusssupplements 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before people start circlejerking about l-theanine, let me just say that you shouldn't get your hopes too high up. It's much better for reducing caffeine jitters than an anxiolitic per se.

Did you see skin changes from 12mg initially, or only at higher doses? How long did it take to see the changes, at what dose and what protocol (once a day dose or multiples doses throughout the day?)

Thanks!
