@MohammedAlo I am just not convinced there are no negative effects on the liver for such long times. Any reference that you can cite? Showing a lack of effect is always hard, statistically.

[Aldo Compagnoni @AldoCompagnoni]

@HRH_Ted It would be fascinating if there were an alternative explanation. Any thoughts?

[Aldo Compagnoni @AldoCompagnoni]

@cremieuxrecueil I find it funny you will necessarily need analysts to determine if it works.

[Aldo Compagnoni @AldoCompagnoni]

@ScottAppliedSci If it's based on CICO, then it works, by definition. It's also not complex, given that if cutting calories does not work initially, cutting a bit more will eventually work.
What's complex is not suffering unduly under a calorie deficit.

[Aldo Compagnoni @AldoCompagnoni]

@DKThomp who are the nutrition experts who claimed CICO is not the main factor in weight gain/loss, when there are consensus statements (e.g. Endocrine society) stating that it is?

Plus, that "probably" in the sentence is illogical.

I keep coming back to this 2022 study after years - quite lovely!

@DeShindig Pensavo di essere scemo a notare tutte queste assurdita' provenira dell'Istituto "Liberale".

[Aldo Compagnoni @AldoCompagnoni]

@ScottAppliedSci 1. A single epidemiological study on Norwegians might be a bit too little, especially considering that the RCT were very short term.
2. Some of us have already diligently self-experimented, with zero effects during months-long n-1 trials.

@gregmushen But since collagen is more expensive than whey, you can bet the former is just a minor component added for marketing.

@Tiziana0219 @micheleboldrin Dai pero', stai parlando di strategie di comunicazione, non di politica. Che le pensioni non fossero sostenibili si sapeva decenni fa, e i tuoi contribuenti hanno continuato a votare DC e FI.
Non ti si puo' neanche prendere sul serio.

@DrNadolsky I am not sure you guys talked about this in a podcast? Some guidelines read to me as "get you ldl below 60mg/dl asap, with meds if needed". If I say this to my doc he will laugh in my face. Do you have any opinions on this?

[Aldo Compagnoni @AldoCompagnoni]

@cremieuxrecueil If anything, there could be a negative correlation between sport performance and success dieting: many athletes struggle with caloric deficits induced by exercise. That subpopulation will have zero experience inducing a caloric deficit mostly through diet.

[Aldo Compagnoni @AldoCompagnoni]

@BioLayne @RobertLustigMD Looks like he's projecting a little tiny bit.

[Aldo Compagnoni @AldoCompagnoni]

@FPanunzi non capisco la battuta - i prezzi in Italia riflettono la corsa al degrado del prodotto finale che si e' riscontrata nella cosidetta "first wave of coffee" negli USA nel dopoguerra e prima del dopoguerra.
Uno specialty a 2.5 e' un affare.

@davidhanley72 @sguyenet I don't know why anybody would consider DOGE's "research" reputable after they failed so miserably.

You are functionally a troll, so no need for me to waste any more time on you.

[Aldo Compagnoni @AldoCompagnoni]

@cremieuxrecueil You must be talking only to the "less is more" crowd - I doubt the situation with no tradeoffs you describe here will ever be an object of contention.

[Aldo Compagnoni @AldoCompagnoni]

@micheleboldrin Ma non sta succedendo il contrario? https://t.co/F5818umMeX

But, plot twist:

The much-discussed contraction in entry-level tech hiring appears to have *reversed* in recent months.

In fact, relative to the pre-generative AI era, recent grads have secured coding jobs at the same rate as they’ve found any job, if not slightly higher.

@enricomariutti @micheleboldrin Interessante notare come un argomento "negazionista" fosse proprio il "lull in climate change" degli anni ~70, che il consenso spiegata proprio con l'effetto di raffreddamento della SO2.
(non ho letto gli studi recenti, e non so se siano gia' consenso)
