  And to be clear, that study does not have those conclusions:

  Participants slept 27 minutes longer (95% CI 9–51), got up 38 minutes later (95% CI 25–50), and did 50 fewer minutes (95% CI -69–-29) of light physical activity during COVID-19 restrictions. Additionally, participants engaged in more cycling but less swimming, team sports and boating or sailing. Participants consumed a lower percentage of energy from protein (-0.8, 95% CI -1.5–-0.1) and a greater percentage of energy from alcohol (0.9, 95% CI 0.2–1.7). There were no changes in weight or wellbeing. Overall, the effects of COVID-19 restrictions on lifestyle were small; however, their impact on health and wellbeing may accumulate over time.

  I mean, if you manage to get good discounts and have spare room, I guess go ahead.

  I’d rather not pay for mass amounts of storage for what is usually a comparatively small saving on bulk purchases

  What a privilege it is to live in walking distance to a supermarket - this problem doesn’t even exist for me, being out of something just means I walk 4 minutes and buy it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨#environmentalist⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like this might be an American problem, with straws being more necessary for drinking in cars, which are all too common there.

  I rarely drive and basically never drink out of a straw, there’s just no point when you can drink directly out of the cup.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Insuranace is a joke⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Definitely. The business model for basically all of the insurance industry - denying as many claims as possible directly contributing to the margin of the company - is fundamentally broken. A real pity on account of how good and beautiful the core idea of insurance is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Insuranace is a joke⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If your car got hit, then I’m guessing you’re dealing with the other drivers liability insurance, right?

  I can’t speak for how the legal system where you are works, but I would hold the other driver liable for every single cent, involving a lawyer if necessary.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Updates that don't tell me what is being updated⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, you might be inclined to not roll the feature out at all, depending on the results you see from the rollout/an A/B-test. Also, having it written out with a date in the changelog binds you to that date, unless you want the embarrassment of not shipping on a promised time. Maintaining a changelog for very large app development organizations is also a pretty damn hard task, trying to coordinate whatever all teams are releasing in a particular build.

  I agree that getting cute with the changelog messages is a bit stale. Might as well not add anything at that point.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Updates that don't tell me what is being updated⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Modern mobile app development almost always releases features gradually behind feature flags, so changelogging things is not necessarily practical to do.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are fruits and berries healthy, even though they are mostly just sugar?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The dose makes the poison, really. It’s quite hard to reach a harmful amount of sugar by just eating fruit - you’re likely to get either full or bored with eating fruit before you start reaching unhealthy levels of sugar. Combine this with fruits and berries generally being a good source of dietary fiber, this makes for a good combination of attributes you want in healthy food.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hmm this "unisex" bathroom seems biased...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  No, I’m talking about where the urine hits the toilet. If it hits a part that doesn’t get washed by the flush, the urine dries out there and smells.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hmm this "unisex" bathroom seems biased...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
  • Cleaner for your penis: sitting down eliminates the last drops remaining that are common when standing up
  • Cleaner for the bathroom: zero risk foreskin messing up your aim and having pee hit areas that don’t get washed by the flush
  • Better urine elimination for men that have prostate issues or lower urinary tract symptoms. I don’t, but it’s a factor
  • More chill to sit down and check your phone while in the bathroom
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨For people who relocated: when did you realize you want to live in the new place long-term & why?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I knew I felt completely done with the town I grew up in at the point where I graduated high school. Through some funny circumstances, I then spent an additional 3 years there attending University.

  Then I moved to the biggest city in our country in search of better job prospects. It was mostly about the availability of jobs at that point, I didn’t have a specific desire to move to this particular city for any other reasons, as I didn’t really know how it would be to live in a different city. I figured I could always move back - or to another place - if things didn’t work out.

  I have never looked back, as I learned that I really enjoy living in larger cities over smaller more car-dependent ones. I miss nothing from my old city, except maybe vicinity to my parents, which was never something I valued particularly highly anyway.

  Same with not drinking the water in Mexico.

  Wait, why would this be racist? Tap water is not potable in Mexico, locals drink bottled/filter their water. Am I missing something here?
