I am VDR Taq positive and from what I gathered as long as you check your vitamin D levels from time to time and supplement accordingly it shouldn't be an issue. Also there are co-factors for sulfation of vitamin D like zinc, B6, DAO, lysine so you need to check those too. It becomes more complex when, like me, you also have mutations that makes B6 and zinc less abundant.

If it was sustainable, I would applaud. But the reality is that young people don't want to take over the farms and rural population decreases rapidly. Even with incentives, new people don't want to take over farms because investment needed to modernize them is too important.

I lived in many European countries and all are cheaper. Same for the US. Canada might be an exception but the time I spent there (Vancouver), produce was cheaper than Japan (I live in Osaka).

Agriculture in Japan is very under-developed. You add the import restrictions and it leads to produce being twice as expensive (if not more) than most western countries. It also means lack of variety. And organic products are rare. Shortages are a thing bound to happen.

I was hoping for TPP to be accepted, but now I am just going to leave the country.

Stress makes you lost tons of vitamins and minerals. Eating whole foods as opposed to processed foods is important, but I agree reducing stress and exercising is more important.

Cholesterol isn't bad, it's in fact very important for the production of testosterone among other things. The problem comes from the inability to use it because the body isn't healthy. Polyunsaturated fats will produce bad byproducts when it breaks down and over time makes the body sick.

We crucially lack magnesium and potassium in our diet. There are tons of studies showing the benefits of magnesium against heart disease. And it's not just the heart, cholesterol can obstruct the liver and a sick liver will cause a whole lot of problems.

It's not really a fair comparison because Osaka has twice the area of Paris. My ward has the same density than Paris.

I've lived in Paris where it is the same, or even worse because there are historic buildings everywhere. Now I live in Japan where it is the polar opposite. I live in a very dense area of Osaka in a building built in 2013 for the same price than my way smaller and very old place in Paris. If only Europe and North America could be like that...

JSX is in the docs: https://vuejs.org/v2/guide/render-function.html#JSX

I don't have any concrete example of Vue.js + JSX + TypeScript but I know it's a bit tricky, see this thread: https://forum.vuejs.org/t/vue-2-0-and-tsx/308/8

You can use JSX instead of string templates. This way you can get type safety.

I am currently using Elm on an app and had no difficulties creating a select list like the one in the article.

I use Elm more as a way to write components on a server rendered page and it works for great this way! The eco-system is too small to think about creating complex SPA at this point but I really like the language and hope it matures well.

Mexican food anywhere in Japan is pitiful and only slightly less worse in Tokyo. Living in Osaka, I clearly see a lack of diversity. I'm French, lived in Paris and travels a lot but I agree with the article, I have been to some French and Italian restaurants (run only by Japanese) that offer the best value worldwide.

You're clearly not biased about Naritake. I've went to Ramen places all over Japan and Naritake is just so awesome!

I live in Osaka and it is an amazing place! I go to Tokyo a few times a year and it's clearly inferior. People here are really crazy about food.

I don't see how you could work with a growth team on the side but if you are searching for a website with existing traffic maybe you could do marketing for a popular open-source project you like. It's not the ideal solution you described but it would allow you to learn marketing, even if it's by yourself. And you won't even have to make a product.

You don't have to create an application, your product could be a book. IMO it is easier to make and to promote.

I've read a book I really like called "Marketing for Developers": http://devmarketing.xyz

A few studies showed caffeine can achieve the same results than DNP. And I know a few people who reversed fatty liver with caffeine alone in just 2 weeks. The only problem is to have enough caffeine tolerance to get to 800mg through the day.

If you want to render HTML, there's a lot of security features that you won't get with micro-frameworks. And even Beego and Revel have a lot to do to catch up with Rails and Django. So for this type of apps, I would stay with Rails or Django for now (depending on your preferences).

If you make REST APIs, then you can use a micro-framework because there will be less boilerplate to get to what you want. Goji and Gin offer great performances compared to Gorilla, Martini and the others.

I see a lot of companies using Rails or Django for their main app and Go for their background processes. I think this approach is a good first step to get better performances and knowledge of Go, keeping the productivity of these frameworks to render HTML apps.

Gin, a Go web framework similar to Martini, would probably performs 10 times better. Since the only purpose of using Martini is because it has a similar style than Phoenix, I would suggest changing the framework to Gin or another Go framework since Martini is not the only framework available.

In my opinion, Go is great to make REST APIs, but for full-fledged frameworks (with server-generated HTML views) Rails will always be light years ahead for the developer productivity and happiness. That's why the article focus on a web framework to make REST APIs.

That's what this series of articles is doing. It starts with http.Handler and assemble libraries with minimal glue code to make things work without a lot of overhead.

I'm the author of the post. I will be addressing this topic soon, but it's a very vast subject, it takes time to write good articles about database interactions and best practices.

I could return the compliment.

And I'm not saying he's wrong, I'm saying HFCS is indeed toxic, not sugar and fructose (proven by lots of studies made by PhDs with years of experience). So he's partially right.

The article oversimplify the topic too. Saying that fructose is bad is oversimplying the reality.

Metabolism plays a very important role and even if it's really complex, fructose is very good for the metabolism (glucose is inferior in that regard).

If you prefer I've never been that healthy in my life. Every health marker is green.

I know this video and he's wrong (HFCS is bad, simple sugar and fruit fructose are not). I would recommend you to read articles on http://dannyroddy.com http://raypeat.com http://andrewkimblog.com backed by a lot of studies showing fructose is awesome.

The problem is not fruit juices, smoothies or sugar. The problem is that if you drink calories in addition to meals, you get too much calories and you will fatten.

I've been drinking fruits, fruit juices and smoothies instead of most other carbs for a year now and I feel great without being fat. It's just about calories.

I am amazed by the number of people here claiming sugar is bad. I've been eating fruits, fruit juices, milk and sodas as the main part of my diet for a few months now. I've lost weight and I feel really really good (I was in a low carb diet before and always craving carbs and feeling awful).

I've been like you in the past. But instead believing in Lustig and others, I've kept reading scientific studies and the work of Ray Peat is much more consistent.

I did paleo for 9 months. No wheat, gluten. Veggies, some sweet potatoes and nuts, lots of meat (lean and non-lean). I lost 30 pounds (I wasn't really overweight). I don't know my body fat % at that time but I pretty sure it was lower than 15%. Exercising 3 times a week (Weight training).

I had carb craving all-day long even after eating 2000+ calories. I was between 50g and 100g of carb per day (as recommended by Mark's Daily Apple and some others). At the end I feel bad, always tired (exact opposite than at the beginning) and I got very sick for a month (first time in my life).

I'm now eating fruits and protein (no wheat, gluten, processed food) and sometimes dairy. I feel far better for more than a year now (without fluctuations like with paleo). I've gained some weight (because my metabolism was really low) but I'm now dropping weight without any change. It is a long-term diet I'm not expecting to drop 10 pounds in a month (I've tried paleo again for a week recently and didn't even lost a pound BTW).

He doesn't know how but he knows he loses weight by dieting and exercise, link bait title.

Furthermore, what he describes is a typical low-carb diet which works by suppressing your immune system (my experience with a low-carb diet, and the experiences of most people I know who have done a low-carb diet for long enough). After burning all your fat, you will get sick as hell (I had a 1 month fever at my lowest weight before deciding to stop it).

People with great metabolism can be fine on low-carb. But if you're seriously overweight, your metabolism is probably not great.

Slow carb diet by Tim Ferriss is a bit better because you ingest more carbs (and the cheating day maintain your immune system).

If you have cold feets/hands, inflammation (swollen gums for example), bloating, slow pulse, low libido or anything not normal, then your diet is not the right one.
