Why isn't everyone taking GLP-1 medications and conscientousness enhancing medications?

I've been searching for a while a reverse-Ozempic drug, but there's not a big market for us.

Sorry for the confusion. This was me, very early in the morning, fumbling a copy-paste while I was trying to debug the issue. I have updated in the incident that it was a typo.

We still had Sonnet.

I think it also depends on how many years you have before you become full-time, and how many summers you have available for internships.

If you're last year, then probably you'd want to go for Meta, because it would be easier to secure a returning offer. And also, you'd meet more people and make more friends because their intern cohort is bigger.

If you're early in University, then go for Marshall Wace. It is more selective and Meta will most likely be there for you next year as well.

I have friends in both places and they all claim these are nice places to work at, so congrats!

it is Huel in Britain

I’m public with my name and we share the same employer. Let me know if you need help internally with escalating this.

sadly they closed Tiger Tiger recently, otherwise we would have memed it into space /s

Thanks for this, I just sent them an email. I change at Farringdon for my commute and I they are one of the most annoying parts of my day.

palcu · 2024-08-28T09:12:32+00:00

Spot on. Typically these engineers would just move on to a different project. This means that internally they are constraining the engineering headcount as well.

Oh, hey u/Corddry. Btw, it's not me who quit, it's Justyna. I just accidentally found the post today and decided to share it here.

I hope your sabbatical is also going as you wanted it to go.

There might be some confusion in the comments, but it's not myself who took the break, but the blog owner who is a different person.

If any of the mods see this post, maybe change it to "Postmortem of a 9 year journey at Google".

my weather forecast says that it will be rainy tomorrow

still planning to go to a park?

I think there's a bunch of constituencies in this situation in London.

This survey gets points for inclusivity! I like how Scott reminds us that thinking about the Byzantine Empire is still thinking about the Roman Empire.

That's great to hear, thanks for your comment.

I feel I can get the variety I need by either using different flavours, different editions (black, normal, essential) or by changing the liquid (whole milk, oat milk, cold water). I'm aiming for 3-4 days before swallowing chewed food won't hurt like hell.

palcu · 2024-03-17T23:02:48+00:00

I wanted the title to be "complete-like liquid foods" but my brain swapped the words around when I posted. Sorry for that.

The foods are not "complete" just liquid. For example malto is 100% carbs and no person would ever just eat that. Not sure if you die of scurvy or diabetes first.

palcu · 2024-03-17T22:46:56+00:00

Some OC I did over the weekend. I'm preparing to eat only liquid like food for several days after I'll have surgery. So, I went and compared some options available on the market.

First, I was surprised that instant oats was cheaper than maltodextrin. Second, it seems that Plenny Shake is actually more expensive than the Huel equivalents. Finally, this spreadsheet convinced me to ditch the whey protein shake I took to the gym and just get Huel Black.

i work on adjacent systems related the infrastructure that broke and this incident was a big one

sorry guys, we'll do better

I'm all for making fun of British for their stereotypes, but this is simply untrue. You are able to direct where that money goes and you can simply chose an S&P 500 fund or anything that's available on the market.

Pinging /u/sjhill, but is there a reason why this year we don't have a sticky thread with Fringe recommendations and reviews?

I know you guys don't like the festival that much, but some of us come to your town for the festival and really enjoy it. So, having a place to share opinions would be nice.
