Why is defence production low in India compared to China?
|
It is abysmally low as compared to china ..
Military preparedness was never the priority for the initial governments after gaining independence from the britishsocialist policiesall the defense production being monopolized to the government owned ordnance factories..the huge kickbacks in foreign procurement of defense materials…bureaucracy in all defense departments including DRDO.. such establishments have become havens for the paper pushers rather than the scientists or technocrats…

If evolution were true (it clearly is not), what would observable evidence look like?
|
It’s only clear if you close your eyes and seal yourself in a bubble and ignore all evidence and history and facts. Farmers and animal breeders have known and taken advantage of evolution for centuries. It’s a fact because it works, and it can be demonstrated and observed on farms and in nature and hospitals and so on. It was NEVER controversial until modern times when fundamentalists started to try to rewrite reality. We’ve known that evolution was a fact of nature since man first started trying to improve their livestock and crops.
If you don’t believe in evolution then you obviously don’t believe that beagles and poodles and great danes are all dog breeds created by human beings by exploiting evolution. If you don’t believe in evolution, ignore the watermelons and bananas and all of the different varieties of apples when you are in the produce section of the supermarket. And forget about scientists needing to create new flu vaccines every year to deal with the ever evolving flu viruses.
Science is real because it works and is reproducible if you simply invest the effort. Or you can be lazy, keep your eyes and mind closed and simply spout religious dogma of fringe churches trying to take us back to the dark ages. Use your brain. It doesn’t matter if you believe your brain evolved or was created by a deity or deities. It’s there, so use it once in a while instead of repeating and spreading ignorance in the world.

What is your favorite sci-fi book series, and why?
|
A sci-fi series that I am currently reading is PB Flower’s All Kaal None.
The narration and plot dragged me into the realm and I found it extremely difficult to put the book down and get any work done. PB Flower has managed to blend multiple genres together and make it work in an amazing manner!

Does the oral microbiome have any influence or effect on our gut microbiome?
|
TL-DR: Probably not significantly. Diet and drugs are the strongest altering factors in the gut microbiome. That said, dysbiosis in the mouth linked not just oral but several systemic issues as well.
Several studies suggest that most probably does. The details are being investigated. My thoughts are that for sure, the mouth’s clearance is happening by swallowing, so all microbes tend to move toward the more distal parts of the gut. The next step though, the acidic stomach is highly protective and helps keeping the small intestines more or less microbe free.
The colon, as mostly referred to the gut microbiota, is highly influenced by diet, because undigested particles, mostly fibers can reach that part and selectively feed/ starve species, supporting diversity.
More important I think when there is a dysbiosis in the oral microbiome. Typically when disease present, in this case gum disease (periodontal disease). That’s caused by specific pathogens that are linked to several other conditions, some studies showed link to colon cancer, but probably not by altering the gut microbiome.
Whether they reach other body parts by swallowing or via blood is not clear yet, these are quite aggressive pathogens and known to enter the blood stream through the inflamed gum. You could call ‘leaky gum’ using present fancy terms.
If you want to read more about the importance of a healthy oral microbiome, I’d recommend this blog post for further reads: [LINKED_TEXT: Oral microbiome changes and why does it matter?] [URL: https://natorally.com/blogs/natorally/oral-microbiome-changes-and-why-does-it-matter]

How did a plane crash on the upper floors of the World Trade Center result in the entire building collapsing?
|
In response to the other answers, I wouldn’t be so quick to assume that our government is being completely honest about the incident. In saying this, does not automatically assume that any conspiracy took place, as it was so eloquently said. It’s damning that everyone will always wholeheartedly believe, blindly, whatever the government says. It’s aggravating to say the least. This is not to say the the conspiracy theorists are correct, either. WTC 7 collapsed without being hit whatsoever. In addition, no other steel skyscraper has ever collapsed before or since 9/11. Government reports completely ignore most eyewitness reports, as well as other factors. Other countries warned our government of the strong possibility of a terrorist attack. They may not have been specific, but most attacks have targeted WTC in the past, so it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure that one out. Black boxes of the aircraft, some of which were recovered, were never released to the public. All surveillance of the incident have been kept from the public, courtesy of our government. In the middle of New York, where there are plenty of security cameras in the area. Go ahead and believe what you want to believe, just don’t tell me that we should go ahead and believe the government’s bs story.

Is Bangladesh more powerful and prosperous than Pakistan?
|
I won't say Bangladesh is a “far more” prosperous country than Pakistan but definitely “MORE” prosperous and “SAFER" country than Pakistan.
You can check the various parameters of comparing the two countries by googling them. Basically we have everything better than pakistan, better food, better transportation system, better health care, better educational institutions and so on.
Recently there was a television talk show from pakistan that got popular where the Pakistani intellectuals were heard saying, “… Dekho kaise tarakki kar raha hain Bangladesh. … Haame Bangladesh banaa do…”. This is translated as, “Look at the pace of development in Bangladesh. … Make us Bangladesh.” I think this statement of theirs is enough to answer this question.

If Republicans are supposedly fiscally responsible, why does the deficit increase every time they are in power?
|
I takes years for long term investments to bear fruit. Up and down tax codes and wasteful spending lead to deficits. Sustained deficits lead to debt. Debt leads to debt maintenance. Debt maintenance leads to an unbalanced budget.
Reagan defeated the Soviets by out spending them and that led to a period of peacetime prosperity bolstered by new computer technology that was developed with much of that money.

Did you ever think that if you could convince 1 million people to give you only 1 miserable dollar you would become a millionaire?
|
So interesting to see these posts, I've thought about this so many times, you would have to start an online community of millions of like minded people for this to work, that would be such a long daunting task to add everyone's email and whatnot, in order for this to work, everyone would need to be in some sort of lineup and insured their turn is coming up, but it would be worth the wait in my opinion, better than playing a rigged lottery system, if or when you decide to start your community, be sure to add me!

If a job is still being advertised 4 months after you were rejected, and you think you are qualified for it, would you reapply?
|
In my experience, a job that appears to be available for extended periods of time, should raise a red flag. I applied for a couple of jobs that had still been available after 6 months or so and found out why. The doctor I ended up working for was a real jerk that was constantly yelling. Although I had never quit a job after 2 days before, I did that day. I told myself there was no need to tolerate bad behavior. Another time, I found out that the employer was very demanding and always wanted those that worked for her to stay overtime 2 to 3 hours every night, plus Saturdays. That may be fine for other type A people like herself, but I am not that person. So in answer to your question, always research the job and the company as much as possible before you interview.

How do I breathe during HIIT or running?
|
There are a bunch of aspects involved in determining how long your HIIT session lasts:
1. Breathing: Since your question specifically talks about breathing, let's talk about it first. Breathing method is more important in cardio than in HIIT. However, some practices are common to both.
Breathe with your mouth to increase the volume of air. To recover your breath faster, you can learn how to better involve (and strengthen) your abdominal muscles in breathing. [0] It will make a big difference to your rest periods to learn better breathing practices.
2. Workout:Rest Ratio: You can vary your workout to rest ratio. Start at an easy pace when doing HIIT for the first time (e.g. 1:2) and build upto better rates (e.g. 2:1). Typical HIIT sessions should last 20 minutes.
3. Nutrtion: As with any exercise method, the amount of energy you have is dependent on your nutrition. Daily nutrition aside, you can increase your energy by having a pre-workout meal. Having a banana with some almonds/walnuts before your workout would go a long way.
4. Exercise type: This is pretty subjective. Some people do better with running, others with cycling, some others with jump rope, and so on. See if another exercise works better for you. I personally jump rope for HIIT.
And as [LINKED_TEXT: Kent Fung] [URL: https://www.quora.com/profile/Kent-Fung] says, you are supposed to lose energy fast. Adjust the intensity of your routine to last about 20 minutes and vary your routine as your fitness improves.

What are the arguments for and against whether a human fertilized egg at the moment of conception is a person or not?
|
Let’s say a fertilized egg, or even a fetus, is indeed a human.
And this fetus-human need the mother’s blood, bodily fluid, nutrition… to survive.
And you know what, the mother can still say no, even that means the death of this fetus-human.
That’s how bodily autonomy works.
We do not legally compel people to donate their organs or blood even their organs or blood can save lives.
We do not legally compel parents to give their kidneys to their children to save the child’s life.
If a person is brain dead, we do not take the dead person’s organ to save someone without the dead person or their power attorneys content. Let that sink in, we don’t take organs or tissues from a dead person without prior consent.
The question is not whether the fetus is a human, the question is whether the mother can say no to using her body, her organ, her blood, to support the fetus.
And the answer is the pregnant woman has the right to say NO, because of bodily autonomy.
If you want to force women to carry the fetus to term, you need to abolish bodily autonomy. Here’s how it works:
Start with national registration of blood type.If someone needs an organ or blood or tissue, the government will search the citizen database.If a match is found, the healthy person MUST donate their organ, their blood, or their tissue to save the sick person even if the procedure is dangerous and potentially life-threatening.
No? you don’t want to donate your kidney to save someone’s life? But women must carry the fetus to term regardless?
… So it’s not really about human life, is it? It’s about you wanting to deny women’s rights to their own bodies.
Comment closed. I realized I do not have the time and energy to argue with pro-life people.

What is an online auction?
|
When most people think of selling their home, they think of using a real estate agent. This is for a good reason; selling your home through an agent generally leads to more viewings and better offers than if you try to sell it yourself. However, there are some situations where online bidding may be worth looking into instead of listing with an agent. If you plan on selling within a month or two, online bidding services can help you avoid paying for weeks (or months) on end with nothing to show for it. Online bidding may work best for you if you want total control over how quickly your home is listed or taken off the market.

A proxy is a server that acts as a middleman between person accessing the system and website they are browsing.

It helped me a lot with understanding the purpose of the proxy server and with choosing the right proxy server for me. You can pick between paid and free proxy servers, but my advice is to always go for paid ones because they are secure and you are protected from the hackers.

What is the slickest way a person has gotten out of a traffic ticket?
|
A few years ago, I was selling a car this woman wanted a test run so we went a blast up and down the road she exceeded the limit a few times so the luck looked to have run out.
Yep so got stopped copper just so happened to be her husband, when stopped for exceeding the speed limit the offending driver is asked to sit in the back of the police car for a small interview and a bit of a rocketing (no raised voice from the police, but you do feel bad about half way through the explanation) so after a bit she returns without a conditional offer, at that time it was 3 points and £60 for the offer or go to court and the sheriff will up it a bit.
Drove back to the yard I sold the car for a little bit less than advertised.

Can you defend the line "I don't like sand"?
|
First, I like the answer by Ben Choucroun.
Second, the line “I don’t like sand” is our generation’s “It was a dark and stormy night.” There’s nothing wrong with the sentence and it has a minimalist charm. However, it is the prelude to a deluge of terrible writing. There were a lot of good places to go after someone says “I don’t like sand” but we don’t go there.
In the case of “Sand” it is made all the worse by the “acting”, conveying only the feeling of adolescent whining, not real anger and sadness.

Does a scooter battery charge itself?
|
Electric scooters are becoming increasingly popular as a means of transportation. They are affordable, eco-friendly, and easy to use. One question that many people have about electric scooters is whether or not the battery charges itself. In this article, we will explore the topic in depth and provide you with everything you need to know about scooter batteries.
[LINKED_TEXT: Mcleodproducts's post in Marlon Mcleod - Starting Your Online Business] [URL: https://mcleodproducts.quora.com/What-are-the-most-effective-strategies-to-grow-my-business-Growing-a-business-requires-a-well-thought-out-and-comprehe]
Firstly, it is important to understand that electric scooters are powered by a rechargeable battery. This battery stores electrical energy that is used to power the motor and allow the scooter to move. When the battery is depleted, it needs to be recharged before the scooter can be used again.
So, does the battery charge itself? The answer is no. The battery in an electric scooter does not have the ability to recharge itself. It requires an external source of power to recharge. This is typically done by plugging the scooter into an electrical outlet using a charger that is provided with the scooter.
The battery in an electric scooter is typically a lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery. These batteries are known for their high energy density, long cycle life, and low self-discharge rate. This means that they can hold a charge for a long time and can be recharged many times before they need to be replaced.
When the battery in an electric scooter is charging, the charger sends an electrical current through the battery. This current causes a chemical reaction inside the battery that stores energy in the form of chemical bonds. When the battery is fully charged, the chemical reaction stops and the battery is ready to be used.
It is important to note that the charging time for an electric scooter battery can vary depending on the size of the battery and the charger being used. Typically, it takes anywhere from 4-8 hours to fully charge an electric scooter battery. Some scooters have fast chargers that can charge the battery in as little as 2 hours.
In addition to charging time, it is also important to consider the range of the scooter. The range refers to the distance that the scooter can travel on a single charge. The range of an electric scooter is determined by the size of the battery and the efficiency of the motor. A larger battery will typically provide a longer range, while a more efficient motor will require less energy and provide a longer range.
To maximize the range of your electric scooter, it is important to follow some simple guidelines. First, make sure that the battery is fully charged before using the scooter. Second, avoid riding the scooter at full speed for extended periods of time, as this will drain the battery faster. Third, try to avoid steep hills and rough terrain, as this will also drain the battery faster.

In conclusion, the battery in an electric scooter does not charge itself. It requires an external source of power to recharge. When the battery is charging, a chemical reaction stores energy in the form of chemical bonds. The charging time for an electric scooter battery can vary, but typically takes anywhere from 4-8 hours.

What should I consider when selecting a pet-friendly HVAC system for my home?
|
When it comes to selecting an HVAC system that's suitable for your pets, there are some important factors to consider. First, you need to ensure that the system you choose is compatible with your pets, taking into account their size, breed, and any specific requirements they may have. Second, consider the energy efficiency of the system you're interested in. You want your pets to be comfortable, but you also want to keep your energy bills under control. So, look for HVAC systems that are energy-efficient and have a good SEER rating. Third, the air quality in your home is also essential to consider. Pets can produce dander, hair, and other allergens that can affect the air quality of your home. Therefore, look for HVAC systems that have high-quality air filters and consider investing in additional air purifiers or cleaners. Lastly, don't forget about the maintenance needs of the HVAC system. Choose a system that's easy to maintain and has a good warranty. Regular maintenance is essential to ensure your system runs efficiently and prevent any problems that could affect your pets' comfort.

Atheists, take a look around. Do you like the world science has lead you to?
|
The problem with a lot of science you have different opinions and they spread like wildfire on social media, the coronavirus being an example, so we're getting to the point we don't know who to believe, we then have so called experts that tell us one minute coffee or wine is good for us and a couple of years later it's not.
I think the US are to blame for a lot of it, because scientists are paid by private companies so you don't know if what they're saying is money orientated or the truth.
I still Believe science over religion, because religion is made up fairy stories, but I'm getting sceptical about the shit I read online.

Has any programmer ever been paid per line of code?
|
Heavens, I hope not! Anyone who knows anything about programming would never agree to such a scheme. For example, this:
// this is Java! System.out.println( "This is the greatest program ever!" );
Produces the exact same output as:
System.out.print( "This " ); System.out.print( "is " ); System.out.print( "the " ); System.out.print( "greatest " ); System.out.print( "program " ); System.out.println( "ever!" );
Do you see a problem here? Taking it even further, suppose your programmer got greedy one day and decided he needed a new Tesla. Your source code just became:
System.out.print( "T" ); System.out.print( "h" ); System.out.print( "i" ); System.out.print( "s" ); System.out.print( " " ); System.out.print( "i" ); System.out.print( "s" ); // you get the idea
No, I hope this has never been attempted. If so, hopefully the originator probably learned that this was the wrong way to pay for software development.
The closest I came across this was a friend who worked for the US government. He and all the other programmers were writing in assembly and were required to write a comment on every line of source code saying what it was doing. Every line.
That got old quick, but they had “spotters” walking around making sure the programmers were commenting every line (this was in the early 1980s when automated tools for this didn’t exist).
It’s surprising that source lines of code are still used as a metric for programmer efficiency. “Hey! I wrote 2000 lines of source code today! You only wrote 25! You suck! I’m awesome!”
Yeah, it doesn’t work that way.

Is Iraq better off today than it would have been still under Saddam?
|
not only sunni people supported him, but some of christains iraqis, yazideez, and the arabs from syria, gulf, jordan, Palestine
till this day they love him and how much they love him sometimes you think if they worship him, he possess as a god and hero to them who fought the jews and killed the shias
some iraqi christains hated saddam to death as well those were good ones i respect
jews hated saddam because he forced them to leave to isreal, the order came from america via saddam and they ¼ million
saddam wasnt sunni, he will never be one, he didnt have a religion, but he put a sunni mask to represent, and to make the arabs love him, since the rest of the arabs are sunnis and only us iraqis from the arabs who have a 75% of shia, therefore we are hated by most of them
by the way those sunnis batryed him, and those sunnis let isis get in iraq
and their mums and daughters got raped when the americans came in and when isis came in, sometimes we be like we defended your sisters honour, becuase us shia kicked the isis out, we made the effort to come all the way from south to east lost our men, while they let isis in plus the contributions to killing us back in saddam days
(isis wouldve never managed to get in from our side, yet they choose "not sunni called" rather the friendly side)
when saddam got killed which was eid, these people were extremely sad, if you loved him that much, why did you batrye him, if saddam choose us shia ones we will never batrye him, yet we wouldnt allow war with iran thats why, he took our people and forced them to fight
if saddam had another chance out of his court trial, he wouldve took the biggest revenge on his people, i mean it, he made a big mistake in trusting them, after he fed them and took care of them, they werent loyal after all
i actually have a sunni friend “tikreet” whos family wasnt from the ba3eeth party, and his father hated saddam, because saddam slapped his father and threaten to kill his family. my friends father used to tell my friends younger sibling to say saddam ibn elkalb, means son of dog
after all whoever supported him, know that saddam was feeding them
such as Palestinan and Jordanians, who saddam got to our country and gave them iraqi rights, and iraqi healthcare system, iraqi educations, that us shia and kurds never had, we managed to kick them out after saddam died, they love him to death as if he was their god, we didnt kick them out because they took our rights, its because they loved him
(seriously bro why do you get in the iraqi business, mind your jordainan, Palestinian related country issues alright)
(you lots be happy on your iraqi arabs bruvs expenses, just because we are shia, is that what your sunni religion teaches you, wheres the sense of humanity)
they think he hit 39 missles on isreal, 39 missles all Palestine wouldve been gone, all missles dropped in sahraah of iraq and palestine
we managed to take revenge of his people, but most of em escaped to jordan, turkey, gulf
at the end they wanted to take revenge for saddam by letting isis in, thats when karma took place and back flipped on them and their "sisters" and mothers
my family were the ones who signed the death penalty, and we questioned him, and witness his death back stage.
no body will know the reality of saddam or how he got in power or where he came from more than us good iraqis, from aldawouaa party leaded by the scholar who saddam killed, alshaeed mohammed baqer alsader, RIP
and one more thing, if you ever search saddam dad, it will show that he got one, which is his step dad, the dad of his step brother brazan almajeed
no body knows his father, not even us aldawouaa people or the americans or him himself, rumors say hes a bastard, but govermntally its known and proved that he is one
dont bother asking anyone about saddam, only 2 knows
[LINKED_TEXT: t] [URL: https://www.quora.com/How-was-the-Iraqi-war-like/answer/Ibrahim-Innit]he american puppet masters, the biggest head in the organizationparty of aldawouaa people, not all of em, but theyre the closest to reality and only few of them knows everything about saddam, like me since my dad contributed to fighting saddam
if you have a question you found the right person
viva aldawouaa party, viva alhashed alshaabi, viva the gone souls, and the biggest curse on your bastard soul, and your worshipers lovers, till this day we paying for your mistakes, yet we bare the hate of the arabs/sunnis, we managed to keep a good stable mental conditions with the worse human living conditions, and the terrorists wars.

Is Missouri considered a southern state?

Different parts of the state and different aspects of its history and culture may fit each of those classifications but as a whole it is both all and none of the above.

What did the Jedi do if they found a teenager or adult that was strong in the force but was missed as a baby? Do they just let this powerful person walk around untrained and dangerous, maybe fall to the dark side?
|
This was a pressing question for me in the one Star Wars campaign my gaming group played with. I played a Force-Sensitive smuggler-or-something, and another of us played a legit Jedi (starting as a padawan on detached assignment). So how did we interact? I started out using my Force-Sensitivity for a couple tricks (extra sensitivity in drawing a bead on someone with a blaster; cadging drinks in a bar by showing how I could down a shot without using my hands).
But as the game progressed, well, it became a really serious matter of philosophy: Could I actually use my proto-Force powers without getting myself into serious trouble? (I’d tried a “Jedi mind trick” a couple times and just made things much worse—the game master was masterful at it :) ) Just how did my Jedi pal (eventually graduated from padawan) manage to handle himself without getting into trouble?
For me, it was a turning point in my career with my pals. Eventually I asked my Jedi friend, “Can you help me see how to not screw things up?”
“Thought you’d never ask,” he replied. And I ended up as his not-really-legal padawan—eventually pulling him out of trouble more often than he pulled me :)
But, yes, what happened in canon with Force-Sensitives who didn’t have a fall-back in their own culture? My backstory: I was a Coruscanti brat from the poverty-stricken alleyways at the bottom rungs of the planet-city, escaping poverty by getting berths on one ship after another, looking more towards smuggling than anything legit—sure wasn’t going to join the AgraCorps! Just chance placed me beside a real Jedi, and it was the growing bond among our party that made me want to do the best I could—not for me, but for our group. Great dramatic arc there—I’ve got a sorta novel sketched out. But what was supposed to happen in canon?
Maybe the answer is, without a Jedi to aid in training, the Force-sensitive brat just destroys herself without ever becoming much of a menace—or learns to suppress her worse temptations, just cadging drinks in bars.

How could PDF files be converted to EPUB and vice versa?
|
Converting PDF files to EPUB and vice versa is possible using a variety of methods and software solutions. PDF (Portable Document Format) and EPUB (Electronic Publication) are two widely used file formats for documents and e-books, each with its own set of advantages. Converting between them provides greater flexibility in accessing and reading content across multiple devices.
There are various methods for converting PDF files to EPUB format. Online converting tools are one possibility. Many websites provide free PDF to EPUB conversion services, allowing you to upload a PDF file and obtain an EPUB file in return. These internet tools are typically useful for simple documents with simple formatting.
Another way is to use dedicated software programmes built exclusively for converting PDF to EPUB. These software solutions include more extensive functionality, such as preserving complicated formatting, handling photos, and managing metadata during conversion. Furthermore, they frequently support batch conversions, which saves time when dealing with several files.
Similarly, comparable procedures can be used to convert EPUB files to PDF. Converting EPUB files to PDF format is frequently available via online conversion services and software programmes. These tools ensure that the original EPUB file's layout, graphics, and formatting are faithfully retained in the final PDF version.
It is crucial to note that while converting files from PDF to EPUB or vice versa, the conversion may not always be perfect. To achieve the best readability in the EPUB format, PDF files, particularly those with complex layouts, may require manual modifications after conversion. Similarly, EPUB files with complex formatting may require minor adjustments after conversion to retain the desired appearance in PDF format.
Ultimately, online tools and dedicated software programmes can convert PDF files to EPUB and vice versa. These technologies enable users to access and read content on various devices. However, reviewing the converted files and making necessary adjustments is important to ensure the best possible conversion results.

Do autopilot systems in some way diminish the natural skills and reflexes of pilots?
|
When I was transitioning from the Navy to the airlines, I was initially skeptical, wondering why they would hire me, when so many others had far more flight time. A crusty old commander commented, “You may only have 2000 hours, but the other guys only have one hour. They just have 5,000 of that hour.”
This is relevant to this question because autopilot systems are generally only used for the boring things. It takes very little pilot skill and a great deal of pilot attention to maintain straight and level or make 4.5° turns at 38,000 feet. You’re concentrating on the mundane so much, you’re likely to miss something important. The autopilot may take over the monkey work, but it doesn’t mean you’re not flying the plane. Technically, the wings are keeping you airborne, but we don’t poo-poo the pilot when he doesn’t flap his arms.
Autopilot systems elevate the pilot from a reaction engine to a flight manager. When you’re the sole manipulator of the controls, you’re not managing the flight like you need to in a complex, exacting airspace. The margins are so narrow in the modern traffic control system that simply flying around isn’t going to cut it any longer. You need to be able to interpret a complicated set of instructions and input and process them in a timely fashion. If you’re bogged down with altitude-airspeed-heading-pitch-thrust ad nauseam, you’re going to miss something.
And if you are just flying the plane, you’re not getting good at the autopilot. It’s not just a button you push before you start working on your club soda and shrimp cocktail. There’s a spectrum of control measures from full automation to two-fisting the yoke and thrust levers. If you can’t seamlessly move to the most appropriate level of automation, you’re setting yourself up for pilot-induced snakes on the flight deck. Working the autopilot is a piloting skill all by itself.
They may be king in Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots and dating millionaires, but reflexes aren’t the only aspect to successful piloting.

If you are a medical worker, have you ever experienced a patient full out faking?
|
Ohhh yes I have a good one for this…
Sixteen-year-old patient presented to the ER for a “concussion” due to being hit in the head with a basketball. I was drawing her blood to make sure she didn’t have any bleeding going on. She played the worst fake “I forgot” stupid I have ever experienced. Keep in mind this whole time she tried to also look confused and had a weird tone… Conversation went like this:
Me: “Hi my name is Kylie. I’m going to draw some blood from you.”
pt: “MOM. I CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT THAT MEANS.”
mom: “It’s okay sweetie just give her your arm.”
me: “Can you tell me your name and birthday?”
pt: “I can’t remember my name.”
me: “… You can’t remember your name?”
pt: “NO! Mom! Help me! I can’t remember my name!”
mom: “*tells me her name and birthday.”
me: (getting ready to draw) “okay keep your arm still.”
pt: “I can’t remember if this hurts! Mom! Is this going to hurt me?! I can’t remember! I just can’t remember!”
I was beyond over her at this point. It was blatantly obvious she was milking the shit out of this. I don’t know if her mom believed it but it kind of appeared she did… the draw got done but man… it got old.

How safe is the South Indian Bank?
|
Hi before I answer this question I assume that you may have come across a Video clip aired by a National Channel that sought to create a doubt on the strength of some Banks in India. As an employee of the said bank I would like to categorically put forward the following facts so that I can win over your trust as well as all others who may stumble upon or follow this question.
RBI has categorically rejected this wrong representation and has given the following clarifications through tweets from their official handle in Twitter
" Concern has been raised in certain sections of Media about the safety of Deposits of certain Banks. This concern is based on analysis which is flawed. Solvency of Banks is internationally based on Capital to Risk Weighted Assets (CRAR) and not on Market Cap"
"RBI closely monitors all the Banks and hereby assures all depositors that there is no such concern of safety of the deposits in any Bank
The CRAR of South Indian Bank as on 31.01.2020 is 13.12% vis-a-vis RBI mandated level of 10.875%
SIB is a pan India Bank with more than 900 Offices and sizeable business of Rs 1,50,000/ crores as on 31.12.2019.Bank's Operating Profit has grown steadily from Rs. 884 Crore in the Financial Year 2013-14 to Rs. 1,239 Crore in the Financial Year 2018-19. Operating Profit for the 9 month period ending 31.12.2019 is Rs. 1,112 Crores.
The Bank has exercised effective control on its non-performing loans and the Net NPA stands at 3.44% as on 31.12.2019.
The Bank is marching ahead on its mission of becoming a Retail Banking Powerhouse.
Retail, MSME and Agriculture advances have grown from 58% of the loan book in 2014 to 70% as of now.
The book value of SIB's share listed at a Face Value Re 1) is Rs. 31.21 as on 31.12.2019.
SIB has a glorious heritage spanning 91 years of impeccable service to its 64 lakh customers. You can be rest assured that our bank will never let you down or ever make you regret your decision assuming either you are a customer , investor or a prospective investor .
Trust is something that our bank has earned through countless hours of dedication of the board , the staff and our customers over the last 91 years . We will never let it go at any cost . So yes SOUTH INDIAN BANK was safe , is safe and will remain safe .
#have copied some data from excerpts of an official clarification issued by our bank to drive across my point .

You will qualify for the basic state pension and if your circumstances are as you say you will also qualify for additional benefits,its important for you to reach out to the appropriate authorities to ensure you have the necessary information,CAB is a good place to start if it still exists,in fact you are probably entitled to income support if your circumstances are as you say,of course the pension allowance will start when you reach pension age and that keeps moving.

What is the cutest incident you had with your crush?
|
Hmmmmm.
When I was in 9th standard, I had a hugeeee crush on a senior(10th standard). He lives in my colony and all the kids from my colony(who went to the same school as me) used to travel by van. So this senior ALWAYS sat behind me in the van. There was a single window in the van and i used to wake up early just to take the window seat. My crush used to lean forward towards the window to enjoy the cold morning breeze. During that time i legit used to get butterflies.
My crush always thought that i was a studious kid so he never “gossiped” with me. The only time i remember talking to him was when I asked him to lend me some notes of a teacher🤧. So one fine day i was leaving the school all submerged in my thoughts that i didn't even notice that my bag was not zipped up. Even my friends didn't point it out. At that moment my crush shouted my name and i froze.
He came running towards me and zipped my bag and patted me “good to go now”. I literally stood there for 2 minutes thinking what the hell just happened😂😂.
Another incident:
All the kids in my colony used to go to one tuition. My crush too. But he was from different class so we had different timings. One day our teacher had to go somewhere so she merged the timings of class 9th and 10th. I was like “ Aaj toh maje aenge 😂”. So in excitement I went there a little too early. And guess what! He was there too. Nobody else had come till then and even my tuition teacher was surprised to see us 20 min early.We had to even arrange the tables to sit. My crush arranged the table for me😛. Then both of us just sat there without uttering anything. Eventually the rest of the students started coming and both of us got busy with the tuition. But in the middle of the class, I peeked at him through the corner of my eyes and he was looking at me too!!!!!! There was a second of eye contact and then both of us smiled awkwardly😆. I thought that maybe. ….Maybe he likes me too🥺.
But guess what😑 he got in a relationship with someone else not long after that.
And I still never gave up my window seat😇.
P. S: I haven't seen him since lockdown🙂. Hope he's doing well😂 . (And he'll never know I had a crush on him)

What are some of the shrewdest, smartest military maneuvers ever seen?Was it a significant point in history?

Battle of Cannae
Hannibal’s double envelopment of the Roman army at the [LINKED_TEXT: Battle of Cannae] [URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Cannae] is probably the gold standard of brilliant military maneuvers, resulting in the annihilation of his opponents. The [LINKED_TEXT: Battle of Lake Trasimene] [URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Lake_Trasimene] and [LINKED_TEXT: Battle of the Trebia] [URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_the_Trebia] are also pretty solid examples of what a brilliant commander can do with a well-trained force
Warrenpoint Ambush
On a much smaller scale, I think that the [LINKED_TEXT: Warrenpoint ambush] [URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warrenpoint_ambush] in Northern Ireland, the deadliest attack on the British Army during the Troubles, was an incredibly successful operation, especially given that it was conducted by rural farmers against one of the most elite military forces on the planet.
The South Armagh IRA had studied the behavior of the SAS and correctly predicted what their reaction would be to a roadside bomb attack on a convoy. The SAS set up an incident command post precisely where the IRA expected, and in doing so walked into the second part of the ambush.
[LINKED_TEXT: Brécourt Manor Assault] [URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Br%C3%A9court_Manor_Assault]
If you’ve ever watched Band of Brothers, this is episode 2. Then-Lieutenant [LINKED_TEXT: Richard Winters, ] [URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Winters]in his first action, led his men in what became a literally textbook assault on a superior enemy force in a fortified position.
[LINKED_TEXT: Battle of Trafalgar] [URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Trafalgar]
We need not confine ourselves to land. Admiral Nelson won a decisive and possibly history-defining victory against a superior force by departing wildly with the “prevailing naval orthodoxy…This involved engaging an enemy fleet in a single line of battle parallel to the enemy to facilitate signalling in battle and disengagement, and to maximise fields of fire and target areas. Nelson instead divided his smaller force into two columns directed perpendicularly against the enemy fleet, with decisive results.”
[LINKED_TEXT: Battle of Salamis] [URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Salamis]
The Battle of Salamis was also a great example of victory going to the smartest. The Greeks lured the superior Persian force into an enclosed bay with a false retreat. The confined area eliminated their number advantage, and the swift Greek attack took and kept the initiative.

|
Night terrors — also known as sleep terrors — are a type of sleep disorder. They are a form of parasomnia, which is an abnormal occurrence during sleep. Sleepwalking and sleep paralysis are also forms of parasomnia. A night terror seems similar to a nightmare, but is much more severe. The typical duration of a night terror extends from a few seconds to several minutes, but some may last even longer.
Anyone can experience sleep terrors, but they mainly occur in children. While night terrors usually are not a serious condition, they can be terrifying and distressing for both children and their families. Affected individuals may require a specialist if the sleep terrors pose a safety risk or affect sleeping patterns

What food is just impossible to eat in a civilized manner?
|
The food that is impossible to eat in a civilized manner has to be a burger.
The first bite and the tomatoes just loose it. The mayonnaise is everywhere. In some cases the oil oozes out of the patty, total mess.
Additionally if you are someone who can't take big bites, then literally the whole burger is everywhere. But still, it's worth the struggle.

Why are the Kannadigas the least known among South Indians?
|
Kannadigas are very accommodating,peacefull people we always love and care everyone. Normally do not indulge in rough activities as our culture and literature is so strong many great philosopher and literature like pampa,Basavanna,akkamahadevi,allamaprabhu,kanakadasa purandaradasa and many today's writer gave such a fruitful literature that we are evolved more civilized than others and we have gifted the world “vachana literature” where many thing in constitution resembles these ideas, we are the people following such values which came from @12th century. Even our media don't get news sometimes to show in Karnataka only. nowadays they are showing tiktok videos to viewers (news channels of local language) then how does other get news as your wishing to be.
Follow constitution as religion and compare the ideology to it and find out which would be good,if you feel ur religious ideology are good and many accepts that, then try to amend constitution.
A state with rich LITERATURE is always in peace and developing in all aspects and have good talents and always thinks innovatively.

Can King Charles III give knighthood to anybody that he wants, or must they be British citizens and pre-approved?
|
The Government of the day usually nominates a person then that person is investigated to make sure that they are suitable to receive whichever award . The King can nominate his own choices but they will have to be investigated as well . Some very famous mistakes have been made in the past Mrs . Thatcher awarded Jimmy Saville and she was told that he was not a suitable person to be knighted , but she insisted on it . So the nomination must be a suitable person .

Is there a good date for a SIP?
|
Greetings,
We all want to make the best out of our SIPs. Many of us thus wonder what’s the best day of the month to schedule our SIP.
Some say it is the start of the month. Some say it’s near the last Thu of the month, as markets are volatile due to F&O settlements.
Possibly, the best way to answer this is to check data. So, we looked at the NIFTY 50 TRI returns for the last 10 years. Over the last decade, there was hardly any difference in SIP returns, irrespective of the date you picked.
The highest return was 12.07% (on 24th of every month). The lowest returns turned out to be 11.99% (9th & 18th). Not only large-cap, we also looked at mid-cap & small-cap returns as well. The trend was similar. The SIP date didin’t matter in the long term. Still, Which Date To Choose?
Pick a date at your convenience. For instance, if you have a regular income, you can set your SIP date within 2-3 days of receiving your salary.
Hope it helps!

How do I get rid of lower back pain?
|
If you're experiencing lower back pain, you could consider some general suggestions. Keep a good posture while standing, walking, and sitting. Engage in exercises like yoga or Pilates to stretch and strengthen muscles.
Apply heat or cold to the affected area, and use over-the-counter pain relievers if needed. Maintain a healthy weight and sleep on a supportive mattress.
Chiropractic care can also play an important role in alleviating lower back pain, as chiropractors are trained to address spinal alignment and musculoskeletal issues. Remember to consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice on [LINKED_TEXT: managing your lower back pain] [URL: https://www.centralmauichiropractic.com/chiropractor-for-pregnant-woman].

Why is the microwave oven harmful to food?
|
The answer to this question depends on the type of food being cooked in the microwave. Generally speaking, microwave ovens are safe to use and do not cause any adverse health effects. However, certain types of food, such as processed meats, can be unhealthy when cooked in a microwave oven due to the high temperatures they reach. Additionally, some plastic containers and wraps used to cover food can contain chemicals that can be released into food when heated in a microwave oven. Therefore, it is important to use appropriate containers and wraps when cooking food in a microwave oven.

If Deku catches Goku off guard, can he one-shot him?
|
Yes and No.
If we were to go by a similar situation as Krillin throwing a rock at him (Filler by the way)…
Yes, it IS possible for Deku to completely one-shot Goku if he did.
However, Goku can sense blood-lust in someone’s Ki.
So it’s also possible that Goku could still dodge it.
In addition that Goku was relaxed here (as he planned to for the next 10 days before the Cell Games), the rock Krillin tossed produced little to no sound as well when tossed, so it’s unlikely Goku would’ve dodged it.
I personally would say in a Deku to Goku ratio, in which occurrence is more likely, I would probably say 4:5, just because of how loud Deku’s attacks have been.
Now onto the next situation, in a fight which also can be split into main 2 parts.
After fightsDuring fights
Now after fights, here are 2 examples people love to use, but let’s go through them each one by one.
First is Goku getting pierced by a laser in the Golden Freeza Arc…
If Deku can manage something what Freeza did and keep Goku’s attention onto one thing, then sure it is highly possible for Deku to actually one-shot Goku.
Next is when he got injured by a bullet.
Goku’s reasoning for this? Being rusty with his skills it seems.
So how likely will Goku be in this situation? I am very confident in saying ZERO.
I doubt Deku would go as low as this just for a win, not to mention Goku currently would not fall for this crap again.
During fights?
Yeah it’s a no brainer, even while off guard he can take hits from beings on par with him or stronger.
Overall, it is very unlikely Deku would get the opportunity to catch Goku off-guard and one-shot him.

The slickest out I ever encountered was the couple alleging labor. She had the belly, labor pains, broken water, and even full dilation with a baby head. Coming out. Sooo fake.
I kid, the slickest ticket escape was a guy that pooped himself, no pun. Free to go…u earned it.

What are the pros/cons of using alcohol vs. marijuana?
|
Nothing against weed at all, but your liver is the only organ in your body that can regenerate. Once your lungs are damaged they are damaged.
Lets get real, smoking is a terrible habit for your health, and I suspect most on here smoke, rather than ingest.
Also, if you were wanting to have a lively craic in a pub or at a party, which would be better?
A group of stoners vacantly staring out the window, or a bunch of drinkers?
In my very limited experience weed is not as good for socialising.
It probably takes away the urge to do so and allows one to swing in hammock alone without a care in the world. Great for occasional use at retirement. Not good for work.

Who’s more creative, Bruce Wayne or Tony Stark?
|
Other answers to this question seem to mistake inventiveness and creativity, while there does exist some overlap, these are two different things.
Being inventive is an act of doing. To invent something, you must have an intention to fulfill a need that is not already fulfilled by creating a new technological device. This is Tony’s wheelhouse.
The Anti-Gravity Device: A deceptively simple small red box, the Anti-Gravity Device can project an energy beam that counteracts the force of gravity for any objects inside the beam, causing them to behave as if no gravity existed. This same device can have the reverse effect — extra-gravity, increasing the force of gravity on an object — and it's powerful enough to lift entire mountains, if only for a few minutes.The Jupiter Landing Vehicle: A sturdy, versatile vehicle, the JLV was designed specifically to take on the inhospitable, heavy-gravity terrain of Jupiter. It was equipped with a sonic disrupter unit that can shatter mountains, thick treads that could navigate any terrain, lasers, and lobster-claw arms.Bleeding Edge Armor: While each armor has been impressive, the changes made for this suit are substantially more impressive, as the suit is both placed into the bones of Tony Stark to be summoned conveniently at any time, and able to self-repair via constantly replicating nano-machines.
Batman has designed the Batmobile, Batwing, Bat-boat, and all kinds of other vehicles, gadgets, and suits, but for the most part they aren’t quite in the same league as Tony’s inventions.
Being creative however, is a state of mind. It’s how you function in the world around you. It is in your nature to come up with plans, to come up with ideas, whether it’s producing ideas for the free world, the marketplace or government, for the arts, or for yourself. Bruce Wayne would probably feel more at home here, being a genius, billionaire looking to improve his city in any way he can. On top of being a vigilante looking to cause as much fear in the hearts of criminals as possible, to the point that Amanda Waller legitimately believes that he’s a metahuman. Bruce has devised countless theoretical and posable weaknesses for a number of individuals. For example:
The Martian Manhunter's most notable weakness is fire. Batman has devised a nanite virus which, if introduced into J'onn's body, would convert the outer layer of his skin into magnesium, causing him to burst into flames upon exposure to air, a fire that wouldn’t be put out even if J’onn were to submerge himself in water.Batman has devised an altered version of Scarecrow's Fear Toxin specifically designed to cause Aquaman to become Hydrophobic, causing him to remain from any body of water and become weaker every second.Green Lantern would be rendered blind by his own power ring from a post-hypnotic suggestion introduced during the REM phase and the ring placed on him while he was asleep.When faced with Prometheus, a man with a helmet that could download skills directly into his brain, Batman replaced the martial arts skills of the 30 martial artists Prometheus had downloaded with the physical skills and coordination of Professor Stephen Hawking.
He’s pretty creative in the movies too.
Batman Begins - Camouflage
When Bruce has to complete his training by defeating, Ra's Al Ghul, Bruce's arm is cut. Bruce immediately considers this distinguishing injury, and then slits someone else's arm, causing Ra's to mistake another disciple for Bruce, granting Bruce a tactical advantage.
In other words, instead of blending in with his environment, he changed his environment to blend in with him.
Batman Forever - Coin Toss
Batman takes advantage of his adversary's obsessive compulsion to make all his big decisions via coin toss. As the Two Face throws his coin into the air, Bruce hurls a handful of coins straight into his face, confusing the sharply dresses criminal with dozens of coins, all glittering through the air. This disrupts Two-Face's decision making process, allowing Bruce to prevail.
The Dark Knight - Supercar Crash
When Coleman Reese, Wayne Enterprises lawyer threatens to reveal Batman's secret identity, the Joker threatens to blow up a hospital unless someone kills him, his reason being that the revelation would ruin his fun. In order to save Reese's life while preserving his secret identity, Bruce runs a red light and crashes his sports car into Reese's convoy, causing security to tighten around Reese, preventing his untimely death.
In addition, the idea of “The Batman” as a superhero is in and of itself a creative inversion of what superheroes were “supposed to be” at the time. While other heroes fought in the daylight, as shining beacons of hope, Batman was a symbol of terror and darkness, using fear as his primary weapon.
The ideas themselves are what make Batman creative, not the means through which he realizes them. Tony can also be incredibly creative, but his best ideas are often the result of “eureka” moments as opposed to him actively coming up with them. (Probably not the best way to put it, but you get what I mean)
I feel as though in terms of creativity, both are pretty even, taking into account everything they’ve been through, their ever increasing preparedness, (full on paranoia in Batman’s case) and their outlooks on life, with Batman having a slight edge, due to almost always having to outthink his opponents before he can stop them, the same happens to Tony, but on a less consistent basis, due to his tech being so formidable, But in terms of sheer inventiveness, Tony takes it. Bruce is no slouch when it comes to engineering, I mean the guy built a functioning Mother Box, but he’s no Tony Stark, Tony habitually designs new devices for solving problems that previously had no solution, Batman, while he does do the same on occasion, more often than not, elects to reverse engineer technology that he doesn't already have access to and/or or utilize what technology he does have access to in new ways, as opposed to designing new tech, unless he feels it absolutely necessary to create something completely new.

What are useful free and open-source tools for devops and sysadmin folks?
|
There are literally tonnes of DevOps tools available online, but I would like to discuss the topmost and the most favorite tools opensource tools.
(1) Kubernetes :
This is an open source orchestration system for Docker containers. It's scheduling is handled onto nodes in a cluster and actively manages workloads, ensure that their state matches the users declared intentions.
(2) Chef :
Chef makes it easy to deploy servers and applications to any physical, virtual, or cloud location. The size of the infrastructure doesn't matter.
(3) Puppet :
Puppet Labs is one of the founding members of the DevOps movement and like Chef, it has moved beyond its original mission of configuration management and automation from single machines or instances to orchestration of the entire stack. Puppet helps the sysadmin community by building and sharing mature tools. This further helps in avoiding the duplication of everyone solving the same problem
(4) Maven :
Maven is a Yiddish word and it means "accumulator of knowledge". This tool is used for building and managing any Java-based project. It enables the developer to comprehend the complete state of a development effort in the shortest period of time.
(5) OWASP :
This tool is generally referred as the developers and DevOps best security friend. It makes software security visible. It enables individuals and organizations to make informed decisions regarding software security risks.

How do you naturally boost your immune system at home?
|
There are many boosters suggested in our Ayurveda. However, if you are looking for just one, here is what can really help you:
Boil some water (Boiling because this is the time when we need to utterly safe from bacteria and virus).
Add few drops of lemon and honey (raw, organic) and drink it.
You and your family must drink it early morning with an empty stomach after you have freshened up and took bath. 2 hours before breakfast is the minimum.
Why bath and freshen up? Our body is a temple, all the processes that we follow internally and externally coincide and decide our well being.
Hope this helps! Please share with your friends and followers on social media and Quora.

Is there a way to permanently delete files on a computer where even the FBI can't find the info?

If it is a pure hard drive and not a hybrid using something like a boot nuke to set all the bits to 0 will destroy all the data. After this you would need to destroy all the ics on your motherboard. And after this even the FBI won't be able to read the data.

What is the simplest way to start a Ketogenic diet? What are the basic principles, and how effective can it be? I am a 33-year-old female, my current weight is 200 lbs and I am 5'2". I’m quite overweight for my height.
|
In my long answer below it ties into Keto, but real quick.
lower carbs
That is all. But here is a very detailed view. This should help you if you read it.
2019 answer: patience my friends. Pick a goal and go after it.
I wrote and combined all my answeres to help you. With all this comes love and hate. Take it or leave it, I have provided TONS of information that I feel goes above and beyond most Quora users. Thank you for taking the time to read all this. Patience.
Great damn question! Here are some recent answers I have submitted and may help you. I wish someone explained weight loss this way when I started.
Hope it helps. Keep it up!
First Answer:
If you understand "The Secret" from rhonda byrne or any other "secret" related material, then please read.
The secret will always be in how we think and feel while maintaining a connection between the two. I pasted two answers that I feel help explain what could be seen as the "secret" to weight loss.
I'm happy to answer any questions! Keep it up!
Second Answer:
There are certain things to understand.
I wish I could just straight up give you a quick answer.
Here are the things to understand:
(1) Body Fat is fat. You know how foods contain fat? Well, that fat when digested, {whatever fats not used for energy}, will get stored as body fat. Each macronutrient has a place to be stored. Fat (macronutrient) gets stored in our fat cells. They match. For anyone to say something otherwise is very misunderstood. People assume carbs equal fat right away.
(2) Carbs do not make you fat, fat makes you “fat”. I’ll explain the parentheses. Carbs are stored as glycogen via liver and via muscle. *keep reading don’t stop because I said carbs don’t make you fat. Keep reading please.
(3) This is where I explain the parentheses: The liver and the muscles contain glucose storages. Glucose all chilling together hanging out stored is/are called glycogen. When these storages become full, then glucose will spill over and get stored in our fat cells just like fat does. Why? The glucose “needs to go somewhere”, it’s not just gonna chill circulating around the body. (I’ll explain “needs to go somewhere” in point 6) FAT does not mean looking like Santa, fat is stored energy. Carbs only lead to fat gain when there is a spillover. Fats only lead to fat gain when that fat isn’t used for energy. *keep reading
(4) Fats mixed with Carbs make you even more fat. I other words: Fats with Carbs can lead to retaining more fat. Remember fats get stored as fat and carbs will only get stored as fat once glycogen is full. Which means….if your glycogen is full and you combine carbs and fats in a meal…then yes, you will store more fat compared to eating just fats or carbs by itself. Why? Well, fats get stored as fat and then the carbs have to get stored as fat as well due to glycogen being full….that is stored fat from two sources, rather than just one. If your glycogen wasn’t full, then only the fats would get stored and the carbs would just go towards glycogen. This is my next point for you.
(5) Glycogen levels. Ever heard of Keto Diet? This diet focuses on little to no carbs. Why? Glycogen levels. Most people eat too much food and most of these foods are carb based. Which means most people have filled glycogen levels. Which means most people are having glucose spill over into being stored as fat. By dropping carbs, we stop carbs from being stored as fat. By dropping carbs, we allow glycogen to become depleted which allows another opportunity to treat carbs better. By dropping carbs, we drop our calories, which should help one enter into a calorie deficit and it’s this deficit that helps more than anything. Make sense?
(6) “Needs to go somewhere” This is where I explain the end of point 3. Insulin is not a fat storage hormone. Insulin simply transports, nutrients, into cells for energy and then stores the nutrients. Protein is not stored, they are recycled, this is why it’s wise to be consistent with protein. Fats are stored as fat. Carbs are stored as glycogen. IF GLYCOGEN is full then insulin will transport the excess glucose to body fat as the glucose needs to go somewhere. It’s not just gonna sit in the blood. If so, this calls for chaos. People that are insulin resistant usually have this chaotic issue.
(7) Deficit and Surplus - remember how I said a deficit is usually the main cause for weight loss? A surplus is the main cause for weight gain. Remember this.
(8) Storing fat from meals - this is something you should read carefully and think hard about. Because even though food will be used for energy, some will get stored as via glycogen or fat. If not glycogen then via fat from carbs and fat from fat. This stored fat from meals does not make us fat. Remember a surplus does. So what does this mean? If the fat stored from meals STAYS stored then yes you will gain because the body isn’t being given enough time to burn the stored fat for energy. If you do give the body time to burn the stored fat then this is called a deficit because you aren’t eating as much as you need. Since you aren’t eating as much as you need, your body will tap into the fat stored from meals and also your body fat. In a surplus, since you are always eating, you are always storing, so you will keep the fat stored from meals stationary while adding more fat due to the excess calories via the surplus. Make sense? So just because you store fat from meals doesn’t mean it makes you fat, the stored fat from meals only makes you fat IF IT STAYS STORED. Just be in a deficit so you burn it and you’re good. Which leads me to my next point
(9) - Know your numbers. How can you lose or gain weight if you don’t know how much you are eating? Usually, people over eat rather than under eat. It’s safe to assume most people looking to lose weight simply just need to eat less. But, what is less? Less of what? It’s wise to know your numbers because this will help you gauge what’s going on. “Calories in vs calories out” is a tool to help you develop an understanding of what’s going on. Of what food contain what and how much, ect ect. Tracking/counting calories is not needed, but it sure does HELP SO MUCH.
(10) Exercising - you talk about building muscle - this comes from breaking down the muscle and building it back up with protein. A surplus is not needed for muscle growth, protein is. I always say stick with 100g minimum so you’re consistent. 100g is 400 calories. Muscles need glucose to perform, so I would eat enough carbs to fill your glycogen levels to prepare for your next training. Then eat fats to cover the rest of the calories whether it’s a surplus or deficit. You can build muscle and lose weight in the same day, just not at the same time (I’ll explain in point 10). Building muscle = breaking down the muscle and rebuilding it with protein. Losing weight = a deficit. Tell me why this can’t happen? Some fear muscle loss during deficits. No. Eat protein. Eat a little more. Some think surpluses are needed to build muscle. No. A surplus leads to fat gain. Even if the excess calories come from protein. Everything has a number. Figure out what fits for you. This is why point 9 is important.
(11) “you can’t burn fat (lose weight) and build muscle at the same time” - you can. Protein builds muscle. A deficit loses weight. What you can’t do is : You can’t burn fat and store fat at the same time as you burn, then store. You can’t lose weight and gain weight at the same time. BUT, you can do all this in a day. Ever heard “fat burning” stops if you eat carbs? This is because that body can’t burn carbs and burn fat at the same time. It has to be one or the other. So if you are always eating, then you eventually hit a surplus, because the body is always storing fat. It can’t even burn dietary fat and burn body fat at the same time. It’s one or the other. What does this mean? Eating less = burning less = storing less. May be hard to understand over text, but’s it’s the same as: eat carbs = burn carbs = store carbs AND eat fats = burn fats = store fats AND eat carbs and fats = burn carbs and fats = store carbs and fats. Ever head “sugar burner” vs “fat burner”. Well, which one are you eating more? Fats or Carbs? Bingo! Eat more carbs and you burn more carbs = sugar burner. Eat more fats and your burn more fats = fat burner. Make sense? Don’t worry about losing weight and building muscle at the same time, just hit each angle. Protein for muscle. Deficit for weight loss via fat.
(12) Don’t fall for the hype. People say eggs contain too much fat. I egg is like 5g fat. Your total fat for your deficit or surplus is way more than that. Let’s say 70g total. How is 5g a lot of fat towards 70g? It’s not. Most foods are high in carbs which make it easy to fill glycogen and cause a spill over. Most people also eat carbs where they enter into a surplus. Most people just eat carbs. Most people eat too much and it’s mostly carbs. Keto likes to drop carbs so it makes sense for Keto to work on people that are in a surplus and eat too many carbs. But, really it’s just the not eating part that works.
(13) Protein Powders are a nice way to squeeze in protein and protein only. I use carb powder to isolate carbs as well. Figure out which foods have what to make it easier on you.
(14) Strive for 100oz of water and consume Micronutrients as these are just as important as macronutrients. Micronutrients help convert macronutrients into energy. It wouldn’t be wise to just eat without checking the nutrition label.
This is most of what I can think of. It’s a lot, but at least it something. I could never find info like this when I was studying, so it’s nice to give back. I’ve read over this and apologize for any errors. If you need elaborating, just let me know. Keep it up!
Third Answer:
This is a great question. In order for one to take an approach, one must take action. Whether this be mentally, physically, or both.
Reading is a great action to take, it helps us learn. This can be seen as an approach. If one cannot take the approach to learn ..then the specific approaches that I’m about to share, cannot be understood.
By reading this, {you the requester and readers} have taken the first approach toward many other approaches. Pat yourself on the back and keep please reading.
Here is my “approach” talk via “nutrient dense diets”:
This question reminds me of a question I answered recently: “what is the healthiest way to lose weight?”
My answer overall was: “I do believe one food can be more healthier than another, but that doesn’t make the other food not healthy”. It’s just a choice game, and we are in control of our choices.
Your questions kinda ties everything together. You are already aware of “nutrient density” which is AWESOME. This is important because I believe one food may be more “healthier” over another due to its “nutrient density”. The other food is still healthy because it still contains nutrients, but the nutrients could be more dense…so this is why I think one food may be “healthier”, while the other just isn’t as “healthy”. It’s not, not healthy.. Make sense?
Which leads to asking: what is “nutrient density”?
Nutrient density is a term used to describe the amount of nutrients a food contains. If a food is high in nutrients, then this food is dense in nutrients. If a food is low in nutrients, then this food is not dense in nutrients. You included the word “diet” which means if a diet consists of foods that are dense in nutrients..then this is a “nutrient dense diet”. Make sense?
Each food will have its own density amount of nutrients. It’s our job to know which foods have what and how much of each nutrient. Thankfully nutrition labels exist to help us figure out what’s going on.
Nutrients are not just proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. They are also vitamins, minerals, and water. Fats, Carbs, and Proteins, are our macronutrients (macros), while vitamins, minerals, and water are our micronutrients (micros).
Which leads to me talking about food choices:
I fortunately remember the nutrition label for many foods. If it doesn’t have a label, I remember what I’ve studied. It just sticks mentally and saves me time as I don’t have to input my calories via tracking. I use to track calories (started like 5yrs ago) which did help me get a better understanding (started to remember within 6m) of which foods had what and at what amount.
I chose to remember so I can choose foods that contain more “nutrients” aka “energy”. I noticed some food weren’t doing what I thought. I focused a lot on my macros and not my micros. It was when I started to increase my micronutrients that things started to change.
The foods I use to eat weren’t doing what I thought they would because they were low in micronutrients. Along my starting stages of learning I was always told and always heard: “EAT”. So I did, but just eating didn’t work.
It was when I shifted my focus onto figuring out why these foods weren’t working. I wasn’t staying full. I was getting bloated. I wasn’t recovering as fast. I wasn’t drinking enough water. Not even close. I ate my carbs, but lacked fiber which is a carb. I wasn’t taking vitamins, not even in supplement form.
I soon realized the foods I were eating weren’t very nutritious, even though they were high in calories and/or helped me get to my calorie surplus. When I fixed this, everything changed. I now can eat those foods, while eating the new foods I learned about.
So today currently, I pretty much have a good list of foods I consume. I eat at specific times, usually. I have nutrients at certain times, usually. Which leads to “nutrient timing”.
What is “nutrient timing”?
Nutrient timing is when we eat at specific times. Or at least consume foods during certain moments throughout the day. If your calorie total is 1,700, all that matters is fitting in the 1,700 before the day ends, BUT…I feel manipulating some of those calories through timing can/could help with health, recovery, and longevity.
Let me try to give simple explanation:
(1) Water - I drink this all the time. Mainly in the morning. Doesn’t it make sense to hydrate upon waking up? I use to get nauseous, but that was because of a poor “diet”/food choices. Now, it’s like a filtering fluid at this time of day (morning). I drink it all day, but I have like 1 water bottle every hour. It’s easy to remember and to do (well, for me). We should aim for around 100oz of water, consuming all this in one time would suck. So “timing” water (which is a nutrient) is considered “nutrient timing”.
(2) Carbohydrates- I use this to refill my liver and muscle glycogen. Not that I’m “dry empty”, but because I train and training for muscle growth uses mainly glucose for energy. Carbs are the best source for glucose. Study carbs deeper and you will notice different level rates of digestion, which means….carbs themselves have their own “timing”, but at the end of the day all carbs (complex or simple) become GLUCOSE. I consciously consume carbs before training because it helps, if I sense I don’t need them, then I will skip carbs because I am “filled up” enough. But, post workout, I FOR SURE, consciously consume as many carbs as I can to make sure I “refill” my glycogen levels via liver and muscle. The body can only store a certain amount of carbs before they body stores them as fat, so I usually eat up to that amount and continue with fats and protein to hit my surplus. With all this said…I am “timing” carbohydrates (a nutrient), which makes all this “nutrient timing”.
(3) Protein - this is a very important nutrient (macro) as the body doesn’t really store protein. It recycles protein as we are mainly protein, so it makes sense for protein metabolism/catabolism to be equally constant…which means we should make sure to be consuming protein via food or supplements (food over supplements) to keep up with this process. If we aren’t consuming protein, then the body will be forced to mostly use it own protein (muscle) for energy. Sure, amino acids help via BCAA vs EAA, but whole protein (complete) combines every amino acid. Certain foods are complete, while some are lightly complete. So strive to eat foods that collectively create whole protein (complete). I also suggest no less then 100g of protein just to play things safe and then manipulate (adjust amount) upon determination.
I could go on with other nutrients, but I hope I made a point with those three.
So again, the best approach would be to learn. To study. To educate. To know. To remember. It helps. Knowledge can be power if you can conceptualize the energy in a progressive manner. Information is key.
Information is the best approach. This makes me think of another question I recently answered: “how do I motivate myself to get in shape”. My answer simply was to read. I feel reading helps motivate us. Which can lead into a habit. It can be tough to become motivated to learn and read, but we need to take this action. I’m motivated to write this because I enjoy explaining things so it helps people understand better. One can practice turning motivation into habits by “waking up”. It can be tough to wake up in the morning (even worse at a certain/different time than one is use to). If one can accomplish waking up when tired, this to me, seems to help accomplishments by that energy being rolled onto other “goals”. It’s hard again because one is use to waking up when they have been usually waking up. Since they “usually” wake up at a certain time, this means they have repeatedly did something over and over. It’s time to try and do some else over and over.
Just put the pieces together as this is a puzzle and you shall develop your approaches.
Hope this helps! Keep it up.
Here is another answer regarding “fasting”. Does it work?
Yes and No. I’ll explain.
Fasting is for when we sleep. When we sleep, we are not eating.
Fasting is also a religious practice.
We should only be fasting during our sleep. The ONLY reason fasting would help one lose weight is because fasting creates less time for one to consume food.
Less time eating, hopefully gets one into a deficit. And the deficit is the ONLY and TRUEST cause for weight loss. So, fasting feeds into a deficit.
People that fast during the day have it all wrong. I understand why they are doing it and my understanding is not the same understanding they have.
People that fast, “think” they are “burning fat” or somehow have “magically” entered into some sort of a fat/weight loss “dimension”.
(1) You could be burning stored glucose (glycogen).
(2) Even if you were burning fat, who’s to say you aren’t going to ruin that time not eating by eating more later?
Point number two is important.
Again, fasting creates less time to eat, which technically shortens the day. Meaning, because you fasted, you now have less time to eat for the remainder of the day. BUT. WHAT IF…you eat more calories later in the little time left in the day? What if you ate enough to kick you out of a deficit? This would mean you fasted for no real reason.
Most people that fast do this. They fast and get high off the placebo and then ruin it by eating more later. But, this can be prevented….because it’s not even needed. Fasted is for when we sleep.
People just eat too damn much.
So much that they are not truly fasting during sleep anymore. People consume more energy than their body requires…don’t you think this will effect sleep? Sleep cycles? Sleep metabolism? Yes, it will. So people fast during the day and cause chaos for the body, mind, and soul. Why? Because you shouldn’t be fasting during the day, you should be organized with your calories and allow fasting to happen “naturally”.
But, I get it. People fast. It happens. But, there is a “proper” way of going about “fasting” IF you are going to implement it. If you are going to fast, FAST FROM CARBS.
What’s the point of fasting? To decrease calories. Even if you burn stored fat, decreasing calories will burn more fat then fasting can directly. And…if there is a chance of burning glycogen, why not just drop carbs? Dropping carbs is dropping calories. Not that carbs are bad, but it makes sense to drop calories via carbs, if not via carbs only.
We only have fats, proteins, and carbs to work with. We could drop a little of each, but I don’t feel like explaining why that is nonsense.
Dropping protein only would be nonsense as protein is like vital vital.Dropping fats would be nonsense as fats are the best source of energy and very much needed for bodily functions.
Dropping carbs is not nonsense because carbs are not even essential, which means we can manipulate them to our advantage.
Dropping carbs will:
(1) Decrease Overall Calories
(2) Restore Glycogen Levels
(3) Improve Insulin Sensitivity
…..oh wait, am I describing the Keto Diet? ;)
Yes, but I didn’t start off with saying Keto, because Keto is a buzzword. You need to understand why Keto does what it does. I would have someone start with Keto for the reasons mentioned above, but I would not have them on it long. Carbs are not essential, but they are helpful. Especially, if someone is on Keto trying to build muscle. Or in just in a deficit. If anything, Atkins is where I would lead someone after doing Keto.
ONE MORE THING:
Fasting while on Keto is major nonsense.

Why did Dr B.R. Ambedkar hate Hinduism?
|
Imagine You are a child and
Your own hindu teacher throws you out of the classroom because you belong to a particular caste,
You do not get to drink water in school from touching a pot/glass, the hindu peon pours water in your mouth.
Your do not get a hair cut because the Hindu barber believes that his razor will be impure.
You become adult and
The files you work with will be refused to be touched because they have become impure.
These are just samples of discrimination Ambedkar faced. If you only get hatred from your own religious people then can you love back that religion ? Love is reciprocated with love and hatred with hatred.
Dalits today face discrimination and hatred in the same way. OBCs are stupid who believe they are not being discriminated until they face a professor in viva, interviewer in an interview , employee for referrals or renter for a home.
So you can call Ambedkar anti-hindu, anti -India independence, reservationist divider but his name will be recalled every-time a lower caste is beaten ,raped, denied housing /job/services, . You can not kill Ambedkar and his ideas because except upper caste men , rest of the Hindus are suffering because of caste.
I also never cared about caste or discrimination until I faced it myself.Every-time I am prepared to face discrimination, I remember Ambedkar how psychologically strong he was even after years of discrimination. It gives me hope and strength because I know just like him caste abolitionist are always standing on higher ground of morality than caste identarians.
95% hindus do not marry outside their caste even though genetic diseases like sickle cell is spreading like wild fire, I wonder how many hindus will survive this millennium with the advent of Artificial Intelligence and lack of cooperation.
