fomoz··on I wandered off and built an IDE
Cool IDE, cool project.

At the same time, it can all be done in Power Pivot and Power Query as long as you know how to use them.

fomoz··on What if you got $1,000 a month, just for being alive? (2014)
My bad, corrected the title.

I don't see anything objective about that article, it looks like an opinion piece.

Leangains IF assumes that you track your macros. I was just talking about your feeding window influencing hormonal entrainment (ghrelin).
fomoz··on Intermittent Fasting Is Gaining Acceptance
It's actually a sign of insulin over-secretion rather than poor insulin sensitivity.

However, in practice, there are signs as to whether you have good insulin sensitivity or not and possibly whether you over-secrete insulin. Here’s two very simple questions to ask yourself regarding your response to diet.

1. On high-carbohydrate intakes, do you find yourself getting pumped and full or sloppy and bloated? If the former, you have good insulin sensitivity; if the latter, you don’t.

2. When you eat a large carbohydrate meal, do you find that you have steady and stable energy levels or do you get an energy crash/sleep and get hungry about an hour later? If the former, you probably have normal/low levels of insulin secretion; if the latter, you probably tend to over-secrete insulin which is causing blood glucose to crash which is making you sleepy and hungry.

I've been doing Leangains style IF for the past four years. I'd like to share a few quick tips.

If anyone here wants to try intermittent fasting, do it for the sake of convenience. I don't eat breakfast or lunch, I just eat when I get home from work or after weight training. On weekends I break my fast earlier than on weekdays.

I wouldn't say you should do it for the "benefits" if it doesn't fit your lifestyle. Right now all we know is that it's not bad for you. It does work pretty well for hunger control, which can help if your goal is weight loss.

Also, don't live by the clock. It's OK to eat outside your feeding window, you might get hungry later during the day and the next day you might get hungry earlier.

Here's a guide if you're looking for a place to start: http://www.leangains.com/2010/04/leangains-guide.html

Here's a good article if you have general questions about IF: http://www.leangains.com/2010/10/top-ten-fasting-myths-debun...

Bulk coffee doesn't yield revenues of $1.00 per cup.

Clients get the convenience of an all-in-one machine for all their caffeinated drink needs, Keurig got $4.358 billion in revenue in 2013.

The title sounds cheesy, but it's a really good book in reality.
