That's because HH is more calorically dense,

This is the key point that I think a lot of people aren't fully integrating. A lot of popular foods, and junk foods in general, are very calorically dense. Your stomach doesn't count calories, it counts volume, so a cup of food is a cup of food is a cup of food to it. But a cup of peanut butter has way more calories than a cup of milk.

Another difference is how long it takes your stomach to process it. A cup of milk goes through instantly, but a cup of celery takes a lot longer to break down.

Those are the big reasons they tell you to eat lots of vegetables if you're on a diet. low caloric density and high digestion time. Keeps you fuller, longer.

Yep. High caloric density is helpful when you're humping bricks across a yard for eight hours a day. It's a killer when you sit at a desk all day.

1. all stats have shown that mobile has overtaken computers for years already for all kinds of usage, more particularly the web so there's nothing new there
2. anybody who needs a computer for their work and needs to do things like "handle files" knows they'll keep a computer to do that anyway because a tablet or mobile is a stupid rear end form factor to do that and while peripherals can help, a thing like iOS is way too locked in to do a bunch of stuff

In looking back at the posts I've written since starting Shyp, there's a theme of me ending with, "I can't wait for you to see what we do next." Even with this announcement, that sentiment remains the same. With all the learnings from building Shyp under our belt, I have no doubt the team will go on to do amazing, impactful things. I’m excited about what the future could hold. To that end, I can't wait for you to see what we do next.

1000 calories of egg whites is not the same as 1000 calories of HFCS solution in any real practical sense because one will make you feel extremely full and the other will probably just make you feel at least as hungry as you already are

Right. Which is why it's dumb to talk about calories in/out and easier to talk about things that grow and live on the planet vs things that are processed with added fats, starches, and sugars. Your digestive system is much more complex than a gasoline engine. You could probably eat 10000 calories of coconut oil a day and not gain weight but you're not going to feel super great either as your body struggles to process it and you fail to absorb half of it.

HFCS is bad because it's cheap compared to sugar, so it's easier for manufacturers to add it by the boatload to everything - not because of anything inherently different with it compared to sugar.

That said, no poo poo 1000 calories of protein is more filling. But 1000 calories of either at the end of the day represents the same weight gain potential.

"eating 1000 calories of HFCS is worse than eating 1000 calories of egg whites because you'll eat more than 1000 calories of HFCS" is a stupid loving argument that entirely misses the point: energy is energy and there is no inherently superior vessel for it and the "clean food" people are scamming.

You're missing the point again:Energy is energy and weight gain or loss comes down to calories in and calories out. Those calories are the same whether you get them from Whole Foods or from Arby's.

Proclaiming Panera as "healthier" than McDonald's or that Whole Foods is "healthier" than Safeway either means you're really dumb and bought into the advertising, or more likely that you're just putting a more favorable face on the fact that you don't want to be near poors.

viz. they are, but that's not the whole story. there's signalling and weirdo bugs and poo poo

if you dont believe that there is significant signalling in metabolic systems obviously that means that injecting 40 milliliters of insulin will leave you fine because its not that important
