  • You can do the protein powder first. Just make sure that when you pour in the water, it stays on top of the protein and doesn't seep through to the bottom. Then flip the bottle over, shake it (without flipping) until all the powder unsticks from the bottom, then proceed to shake normally.

    Alternatively, fill the bottle with about an inch of water, add the powder, then fill the rest of the way with water and shake normally.

    The problem with water first is that you can't stick the scoop into the bottle and protein powder flies off everywhere.

  • Maybe chickpeas are expensive where you live, or maybe you miscalculated. Either way, take a look at my numbers for comparison.

    We can get a 3.63kg bag of chickpeas here for $7.49 (CAD). Assuming you fulfill all your Calorie and protein needs from chickpeas alone (2500 Calories and 150g protein per day), it comes out to about $600/year. That's $1.64/day. In order to be $10/day, you'd have to pay 6x as much for your chickpeas, so that same 3.63kg bag would have to cost $45.50.

  • More variety in your diet is likely to always be superior to less. That goes for both kids and adults. The trouble with younger kids is that deficiencies can impact their development and have more severe long term consequences, and they're also less capable of seeking out foods to fill that gap.

  • I've seen someone complain about vacuum sealing bags not being airtight. They posted a picture and the thing was inflated like a balloon. Ma'am, that's airtight. Your food is fermenting in there.

  • I would argue that this would make nurses less important, and would make them "lazy" by not giving them opportunities to identify these simple things on a regular basis.

    Not just nurses, but doctors too. This exact problem was discussed at a conference I recently attended. Some doctors do better with AI assistance, some do worse. As far as we know, it seems to be dependent on how much they "believe in AI". The more they do, the worse they perform when assisted.

  • Your comment is a great example of the kind of biases I'm telling everyone to avoid. You misunderstood my initial message, then decided to cling on to that interpretation despite clarifications.

    In any case, if you have feedback (e.g. what made the comment unclear, or how you interpreted it), I'd appreciate hearing about it so I can improve my writing. I'm not always aware of the hidden meanings non-autistic people pull out of words that weren't intended to have any.

  • If you're still interested in this, CVPR recently made the rule explicit for the upcoming conference.

  • I'm here with a toddler who just learned to walk and wants to hold my hand and do laps up and down the hallway for hours at a time. Cute af, but also mind numbingly boring.

    You're stuck on the toilet I presume? Doesn't sound pleasant. Hope that gets better for you soon.

  • I wasn't referring to any of that. I was referring to you jumping on an entirely third party, Samvega, and attacking them of baseless accusations. Which is where I joined the conversation. So that might tell you where I came from, since you're so interested in context.

    I thought Samvega disagreed with me when I said baseless accusations are bad, but they denied it and refused to elaborate, so I have no idea what that's all about. They have not made any themselves and I never accused them of such.

    Your only defense for all of this is, "I just don't want people to accuse random people of being racist."

    I don't know what you mean by "defense". I'm restating my main point.

    But you also recognize that hasn't happened here. So why are you arguing with me?

    Yes. It's often better to prevent a Bad Thing than to fix the consequences after Bad Thing has happened. I don't understand what you're disagreeing with.

  • No. I don't expect people to reveal everything they hold in their head that could be relevant to the discussion. That would be ridiculous. I do expect people to be wary of their biases and not make assumptions without adequate evidence.

    Protist made a very reasonable response to the article given what they knew, and was clear that they didn't have enough information to make further judgement.

    treadful's response was saying there also isn't enough evidence to conclude that she isn't racist. Many would read that as saying she's probably racist, so my response is intended to curb that bias.

    I'm not accusing anyone of making baseless accusations. I am preemptively drawing attention to a common bias and asking people be aware of it and to avoid it.
