  • It kinda is though. Iirc it received an interrupt it shouldn’t have received and doesn’t know how to resolve. It is not supposed to ignore it, but then the only other option is crashing at this point. Basically it continues in a dazed and confused state.

    Of course the message could be clearer, but at least it also makes the message easily searchable.


  • Over 50% of all adults are overweight here.

    Every single meal has some form of pasta, potato or rice as a side unless you pick a salad and even then you get some complementary white bread when you eat out.

    I always get weird looks when I am asking for more salad or vegetables and no frites.

    Just check the menu of any random restaurant around you and look for any low carb option which is not a salad. It is really difficult where I live unless it is a tapas bar.



  • You are right with everything you say.

    Still the consumption of carbs is too normalized. Many people believe that you should have carbs with every meal which is insane. Just look at any restaurant food, fast food and everywhere. Unless you are dieting you for sure don’t have to avoid carbs, but don’t seek them out either.

    I believe this is the single biggest reason for the obesity problem. Most meals really shouldn’t have any added carbs, yet they do.


  • It depends on the meaning of amount. By volume no, you can continue to eat like always if you adjust the food itself.

    Technically yes, it is a food restriction, but in the end it is especially a calorie restriction which is the important part.

    You are absolutely correct though.


  • That’s a tough one. Proteins are a much more useful source of energy and nutrients here. There are limits though and then it doesn’t really matter how you get your calories.

    So obviously carbs are cheap food and pack a lot of calories which might be beneficial in this scenario.

    You are right. I can’t argue with that, but I would be careful with this as general advice.

    In the end carbs are just sugars of different complexity. For example add some saliva to starch and you got glucose. Hence white bread, pasta and even potatoes are really bad for your blood sugar.

    You don’t have to avoid them, but carbs are not necessarily part of a healthy and balanced diet. Their only benefit is that they are cheap sources of energy. If you don’t eat carbs the body has to use fat to metabolize sugar which works just as well.

    It is useful to avoid carbs for a diet, because you can remove a lot of calories from any meal by replacing them with mostly vegetables without reducing the portion size at all. Also it helps with cravings a lot.







  • The effects on blood pressure are well known, but that it can cause spasm of arteries is interesting.

    Many people eat lots of spicy food daily and I never heard of serious health issues. Especially a single chip might contain a concentrated amount of capsaicin, but it is unlikely to contain much more in volume then a hot plate of chili con carne or even just a hand full of raw jalapenos. So I assume it is some underlying condition and a shock reaction and not the capsaicin itself.

    I would love to see more research into this.


  • Yea, no. It doesn’t work with ssh agent and it cannot read includes and other configuration options. I believe it also tries to install some components remotely which is bad enough, but causes additional issues in environments with proxies or without internet access at all. Iirc also plugins must be installed remotely to work.

    In a normal professional context it just does not work and it is a hassle to deal with. It might work in a home lab, but nowhere beyond that.
