As someone with a tech startup in Europe: 1. Europeans are more risk averse, and there is not the same entrepreneurial spirit. 2. You're comparing it with the home of tech and startups so it's not going to compare well. More of a

While I dislike the Daily Mail I actually like their writing style when I'm just looking for a simple article on a specific event/topic I'm ill-informed about. They condense and prioritise the most important information clear

You are oversimplifying it. Calorie density is not the only factor related to satiety. Blood sugar, insulin, the combination of foods eaten, fibre levels, all contribute to satiety. And in this context adding more fat and less carbs to your

I said fatty foods are often more satiating. Your oatmeal vs olive oil competition has nothing to do with what I said. A higher fat:carb balance than mainstream diets leads to less hunger, because of the satiety of fat when combined with ot

Fatty foods are often more satiating than carbs, meaning you eat less overall. All things being equal calorie-wise fat is better for weight loss than carbs are.

I think you're really far off with that assessment. The vilification of saturated fat has been widely shown to be based on poor evidence, and there are many arguments for it being healthy. Furthermore, it is not clear-cut that mono- an

I'm working on a startup in this space, I'd love to hear input on the concept and potential pitfalls.

Yeah, I just don't observe that many people keeping their genetics in the fridge like that woman. Just from the fat people I meet, I've heard very few pull the victim card. I think it's overblown how many fat people do act li

Sorry for the late reply. I'm just saying I don't think most fat people act the victim based on my observations, I think you're overstating the amount that do.

Most fat people are at fault. Many aren't. Even some of those who are don't play the victim or blame others. So some fat people may deserve scorn, but a whole lot don't.

I don't think it's a fluke of history, theocracies have been increasingly hard to come by in the past 1000 years (especially in the Western world). The US has never been a theocracy. Religious organisations are not growing in powe

It is hyperbole. And I can't believe you really think "plenty" of people would want to hunt you because of your beliefs. Don't exaggerate. Demonising people you disagree with does not help at all. Sensasionalising these
