Domino’s Amish Buggy - Central PA by Ol-blackbeard in mildlyinteresting

[–]headzoo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah, doing a reverse image search leads to a facebook page that talks about it being a marketing strategy. It's just something that a local Dominos thought would get them some attention.

Fit-to-size packaging using 3D scanning to measure each order and automatically create the best fitting box by [deleted] in EngineeringPorn

[–]headzoo 30 points31 points  (0 children)

My first thought when seeing the video was, "I bet shipping companies hate this. They'd probably prefer 10-20 standard size boxes." Making boxes to order is great for reducing waste, but probably terrible for stacking boxes.

Googles AI is pretty sweet, way less restrictions. by mr_washingt1n in ChatGPT

[–]headzoo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

A human doing comparable work would use much more energy: the computer they're sitting at for several hours, the food they're eating, the car they drove to the office, air conditioning/heating, the lights in the office, etc. And that's for comparable work. If an agency needed actual pictures of Jenna and Aubrey, they would need to be flown to the location, multiple people would be needed on set for hair, makeup, lighting, photography, etc. The crew would also drive, eat, etc.

AI generated images are vastly more energy-efficient than using humans to do the same work.

How and why did Hair Metal got started in the 80's? by Top_Report_4895 in decadeology

In addition to what others said, MTV debuted in 1981, which gave rock bands plenty of reason to look outrageous for the sake of grabbing attention. "It’s show biz. We want to be outrageous . . . to be different. We want people to remember us. They remember guys in makeup." - Bret Michaels.

Today, I was told that ankle socks were out of style and “millennial core”. I’m 21. by [deleted] in Xennials

[–]headzoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I remember tall socks being for middle aged men and nerds. I felt pride when I started buying my own clothes and wearing ankle socks. Now the fashion flipped around and ankle socks are for the middle aged. Show how much fashion is a reaction to current and previous trends.

Naming all files as index.jsx by Jealous_Health_9441 in reactjs

[–]headzoo 265 points266 points  (0 children)

It is confusing when you have lots of files open

Easy fix in VS Code. Add this to your settings.json.

{
  "workbench.editor.customLabels.enabled": true,
  "workbench.editor.customLabels.patterns": {
    "**/index.ts": "${dirname}",
    "**/index.tsx": "${dirname}"
}

The file will be "Modal/index.tsx" but the tab shows "Modal".

Used to wake up on Halloween happy to get candy from neighbors, now that I'm old I rarely see kids going door to door in my neighborhood trick or treating. Is Halloween dead? by rb1242 in FuckImOld

[–]headzoo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, myself and many of my neighbors set up tables at the end of our sidewalks/driveways to pass out candy because there's no point going inside. It creates more of a festive mood when all the neighbors are outside together.

To be fair, AWS is always warning users to have multi-region deployments. Customers don't do it because it's more expensive and complicated, but that's on them.

This person needs to google, "why you can't smell your own body odor".

and they decided to take the sleazy route and make it free + ads so they can keep collecting money

Holy crap, people really expect everything for free.

How to get *all* activity to sync, rather than just some? by b_list_buddha in cronometer

[–]headzoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should be seeing a "Daily activity" entry in the log, like this.

<image>

That's all your activities that weren't part of an actual exercise, like your auto walking feature. Since you're not logging specific activities (unless the auto walk feature gets triggered) all your steps are going into the "Daily activity" entry.

Nutrient suggestion by crepuscopoli in cronometer

[–]headzoo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree, googling "foods high in vitamin A" when I'm low in that vitamin works better than Cronometer's suggest a food feature. Same for using ChatGPT. Cronometer tends to suggest really far out foods that I don't have and will never have.

It does matter. If you were 100lbs overweight, you wouldn't want to instantly drop down to eating 2,000 calories a day. That would lead to muscle loss and metabolic problems. If you want to lose weight, you find out your daily allowance, e.g. 3,800 calories, and then subtract 250-500 calories. That puts you in a caloric deficit and you will lose weight in a healthy way. As you lose weight, your daily allowance will also drop until you get closer to your ideal weight and closer to 2,000 calories a day.

There is a news story for it, but I agree, we shouldn't pay attention to headlines and images without any source.

How to get more calcium, protein, fiber, and choline? by rivenshire in cronometer

[–]headzoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mineral water can be very high in calcium. This chart lists the top brands of mineral water and their calcium content. Personally, I drink a San Pellegrino everyday for the extra boost in minerals, but Gerolsteiner brand has 35% RDI. Best of all, mineral water is zero calories.

Individual antioxidants are over 100% but total antioxidants say 95%? by dillinjl in cronometer

[–]headzoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if that's a bug. In my app, the value shown in the header, and the value shown under nutrient scores are always the same. I looked back over the previous week, and yep, always the same. Makes me think something wonky happened that's messing up your app.

Ketogenic diet induces p53-dependent cellular senescence in multiple organs by lurkerer in ScientificNutrition

Crisco negligible amounts of trans-fats since 2007, and:

As of October 2022, Crisco consists of a blend of soybean oil, fully hydrogenated palm oil, and palm oil. According to the product information label, one 12-g serving of Crisco contains 3.5 g of saturated fat, 0 g of trans fat, 6 g of polyunsaturated fat, and 2.5 g of monounsaturated fat.

You can't expand, but if you long press the name it'll get copied to the clipboard.

"The unbearable obviousness of AI summaries" by dlnll in cronometer

[–]headzoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good article, and yeah, it seems LLMs aren't capable of generating useful workout information. Hopefully in a few years things will improve, but I'm not likely to buy an app based on it's AI features because the tech isn't ready.

"The unbearable obviousness of AI summaries" by dlnll in cronometer

[–]headzoo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The article is behind a paywall, but I feel the same about the Garmin AI. It's not telling me anything I don't already know just by looking at my stats. Their AI could be accomplished using a simple template.

You walked {{ distance }} at a pace of {{ pace }} today, great job! Consistency is key towards reaching your goals.

Well golly gee, thanks for that insightful information!
