He literally did not say that. Why are you making stuff up?


Indeed, only his VP that believes the US-backed coup was fake news.

I love how libertarians are in favour of the state murdering 22 thousands people. Freedom!


There was a dirty war between 'guerrilleros' (leftists revolutionaries) and the military and a lot of innocent people were killed as a result of both sides. She asked people to stop pretending that the revolutionaries were saints and that these victims' human rights should also be recognized. She has never made any claim like 'being in favour of state murdering people' or 'thinking the state didn't commit crimes against humanity'.

Stop spreading misinformation.


> You can't love your country if you choose a non-sovereign currency as your national one.

What is this weak appeal to false nationalism argument?


Hate to be that guy because I know what you were trying to say, but not really, not necessarily. You can avoid eating for the first X hours of the day and then gorge yourself on a huge meal and be in a caloric surplus at the end of the day.


While your point is valid, the researchers in the paper cite evidence from other studies that intermediate fasting reduces calorie intake.

I think the OP has a pretty reasonable point, intermediate fasting, restricts calories to certain hours, calories restriction in general restricts calories to a quantity.

Probably worth exploring the citation to know how well this holds.

“Evidence shows that limiting the eating window to 6 to 10 hours within a 24-hour period naturally reduces energy intake by 200 to 500 kcal/d”.

I linked to full txt above if you want to dig


Intermittent fasting that leads to weight loss is a form of calorie restriction.


Well said!

(There are zero studies that show that time restricted eating causes a greater weight loss effect compared to other eating plans when calorie deficit is equated between the groups)


As someone who has been doing, IF for 11 years and has moved to OMAD (more or less) I’d say…not really

Yeah, you might gorge yourself on occasion and have one our two day surplus, but it’s not something that anyone would regularly do because it’s not only uncomfortable, but it also messes with your gut. So in function while you’re correct, it is possible theoretically to ingest the same calories in a tiny window of eating as somebody who eats throughout a whole day, your body can’t process food that quickly and will give you significant gastrointestinal distress


OMAD it will always be pretty hard to eat a lot. But, for slightly more accommodating feeding windows, people can still eat plenty especially if they have higher density foods


In the case of this study, the comment is accurate


The thing you have to understand is that any central bank in the developed world is 10 times better than any version of the argentinian central bank of the last 50 years.


He advocates for free competition of currencies, but argentinians will choose the US dollar because people here already save on USD and were already saving on it for decades.


His proposal is directly based on the book "Dolarización: Una Solución para la Argentina" (Dolarization: A solution for Argentina) [1] by Nicolas Cachanosky and Emilio Ocampo, two great economists. You may not be on board with Ocampo and Cachanosky's idea but saying that Milei is only advocating for this because he's a "jackass" is pretty stupid. There is theory behind this.

Quoting Justin Timberlake in The Social Network:

"Drop the 'The'. Just Facebook. It's cleaner."


Ahh, thanks for clarification, I wasn't aware that it was called macron, and was trying to figure out if the original comment had something to do with politics and Emmanuel Macron.

On the more serious note, we were debating this as we noticed it was preventing Play Store from showing it in search results if you just typed memento.

Unfortunately after removing it from the Android app store name, it doesn't appear in the search results at all.


Yeah, the same guy who "heard from a cardiologist buddy" of his that 'no amount of exercise offsets the damage of sitting for 6-7 hours a days' (absolute bullshit icydk).


you’re mocking his weak references but you’re not offering one yourself


I think it's completely fine to be extremely skeptical of, and yes even outright mock, the idea that sitting for 6 hours a day does permanent, irreparable damage to the body until proven otherwise. It's also probably fine to be skeptical-bordering-on-mocking of people who use sources that sound authoritative to push something controversial. It's really hard to become a cardiologist. They know a great deal about a lot of things, but you know what they typically don't know anything about? Exercise. They're not physical therapists, they're not exercise physiologists, they don't have PhDs in kinesiology.

Sitting is bad for you, sure. But some random guy's random cardiologist friend likely knows less about exercise science than a $50/hr personal trainer at your local Gold's.


Lionel Messi might be the biggest sport star in history. It's amazing what this man does for people.


True that. He's likeable too. That helps a lot.

Although I think the honor still goes Jordan.


Jordan is not a larger global star than Messi. If that isn't what you were claiming, apologies.


Muhammad Ali was pretty big too.


Of course, but not larger than Messi on a global scale - it's not even close.


In absolute numbers, sure. But for his biggest fights, up to two billion people would watch Muhammad Ali fight. As a percentage, today that would be more than three billion people.


Saludos querido compatriota campeón del mundo
