a partner has been on monthly ketamine therapy for treatment resistant anxiety and depression and it has help them out tremendously. They are still on SSRIs and in regular therapy, but have become far more happy and functional then they were for years before starting ketamine therapy



I wish they would have tested further out than 120 minutes in case part of the effect was not digesting the carbs until later (vs just lowering spikes). One of the books I read on blood sugar talked about some hard to digest pasta that will take 3-5 before the glucose spikes up from it.


Saw another study mentioned in comments that had 24 hour glucose levels and there are definitely higher spikes for carb first for both T2 diabetics and people with a normal glucose response. One thing to note is that protein/veggies first didn't spike as much, but the glucose levels were also much slower to return to baseline. So I would call it a win, but not an absolute for T2 diabetics. It was a total win for people not glucose impaired.

Yet one has sold a million vehicles



The term 'poor man' isn't very informative to me. Does that mean it has all the functionality but is free or does it mean has basic functionality and is free, or is cheaper?


I'm using it in the idiomatic English[0] sense, meaning a cheaper/inferior alternative. For any one of the examples, there are way better tools out there. But how many of those individual tools can be used to accomplish many different things?

I would only call it $10.5B in pre-orders if people paid the full price when they put a deposit. it is more like ~ $25M in deposits.


One follow up question to that would be what percentage of people who made a Model 3 reservation (the $14bn mentioned in the article) ended up not purchasing their vehicle, when their reservation rose to the top of the queue. I'm sure Tesla has good internal numbers tracking this, but whether it's the level of granular data that will make it into public reports for shareholders, that's another question.

Says 25% of Model 3 pre-orders were cancelled and the reservation fee for those was $1000.

No source provided in the comment.


Is there any other car in history that can claim anything like that?


One of the most common joke themes inside Google is that almost everyone is just writing software that converts from one protobuf to another.


Taxis in Las Vegas were adding a $3 fee for paying with credit card. That was so frustrating.


For the companies in question, the senior engineers making bigger contributions are earning $400k+.


Some day, the money people will figure out that there are lots of experienced talent outside the SV bubble.
