Most, if not all top results uploaded in the last 3 months, are AI generated. Not sure if there's a way to restrict searches to older, pre-AI content.

Belief in "the science" akin to religious faith, is counter to the scientific method. Good science happens when the best scientist is wrong.

30B fp16 takes ~500 ms/token on M2 Max 96GB. Interestingly, that's the same performance as 65B q4 quantized. 65B fp16 is ungodly slow, ~300,000 ms/token on the same machine.

Note: Article is from 2019. While the risk of nutritional deficiencies when tracking 1200 calories/day is higher, it's possible to make choices with whole foods that are satiating and satisfy daily micro-nutrient requirements desp

That's a great list! decouple ( https://pypi.org/project/python-decouple/ ) is a useful alternative for managing secrets. It converts values to the correct data type which is nice. Another detail that matters

Cool site, the sliders are super intuitive for exploration. I was pleasantly surprised to see Cauliflower rank high in Choline, it's more readily available from animal sources. Do the portion sizes differ for each item? Eggs have 7.6x

Calcium can inhibit iron absorption. If your multi-vitamin has calcium, it likely won't have iron.

Besides Iron and Zinc - keep an eye on daily intake for Magnesium, Potassium and Calcium. I wasn't happy with the increasing number of supplements in my diet, so I set out to hit daily RDIs on macro and micro-nutrients without any supp

Besides Magnesium, Vit D and Zinc, Potassium and Calcium are other micro-nutrients that affected general well-being for me. Both have relatively high daily RDIs (Potassium - 4700mg/day, and Calcium - 1300mg/day for adults) which c

I really enjoyed the article. I've several personal apps, and as with home cooked meals, I've a favorite 'home-cooked app' that I iterate on more than others. Famnom evolved from spreadsheets, to python scripts, to a web

https://github.com/django/django Django's codebase is a pleasure to read. The directory structure is intuitive to navigate, and test coverage is great.

FDA RDIs are useful as an average guideline imo, while individual acceptable limits can vary. 2300 mg/day ( https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfcfr/cfr... ) Sodium is not that hard to

Just moved a django app from heroku hobby to fly.io. flyctl CLI, the documentation was super easy to work with. Fly.io Trial Plan is a decent alternative for Heroku hobby dynos (SSL certs through Let's Encrypt was a pleasant surprise).

"The Oracle" sounds like a cool feature!

Thanks! MealPlanner generates suggestions through a constraint programming solver, taking into account any foods consumed earlier in the day. The home page tracker shows nutrient consumption (and deficits) for the day.

Your point about nutritional variability with location and time is valid. USDA periodically refreshes nutritional information for a variety of foods ( https://fdc.nal.usda.gov/log.html ) and provides location data for collect
