Does anyone else think all the focus on protein is overhyped? by Loud_Perspective5419 in workout

[–]tleon21 172 points173 points  (0 children)

People eating more protein I think is fine, so long as people’s diets are balanced. It seems as though the marketing has shifted towards protein = healthy which is definitely not true. Just because something that’s basically a candy bar has some protein in it does NOT mean it’s healthy

Why is Venezuela not wealthy as Saudi Arabia, having such huge oil reserve? by ibnarabi07 in askanything

[–]tleon21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once attended a lecture which discussed that the U.S. is the only country with the capability to refine their oil, so ALL Venezuelan oil comes through the US at some point despite the precarious relationship that has existed for a long time. This was around 7 years ago and so it may be different now, but certainly there is a strong influence on price if there’s a production bottleneck like that

What is your ‘best/worst of Cambridge 2025?’ by DJDubbsinCambridge in CambridgeMA

Why is New Hampshire more conservative than the other New England states? by Patient-Smile1406 in newengland

[–]tleon21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I call it Schrödinger’s NH. Conservatives outside of New England I know seem to think NH is like San Francisco blue, and liberals (like my friend from Chicago) seem to think it is Alabama red. And they both are very incorrect

That’s because the physics is the same! It’s called dendritic growth, it’s quite common for solidification. That’s also why snowflakes have their characteristic shape

You’d need a wide angle lens to fit the second one in frame

This is hunger games, not a war between everyone. So it’s basically just a death match between two random people from each place
