There's a bunch of weird poo poo he's done. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/jul/27/soylent-ceo-rob-rhinehart-shipping-container-home-la?CMP=share_btn_tw The Guardian posted:After apparently abolishing the need for food with a meal-substitute drink, which spawned a $100m startup, Rob Rhinehart had another epiphany: plonk a shipping container on a hill overlooking Los Angeles. You get three guesses as to how that went.

Soylent is also made in an abandoned paint factory and has constant mould and contamination issues, resulting in explosive diarrhea, projectile vomiting, cramps, nausea, headaches and the like for the idiots that keep consuming it.

Soylent is fine, even though the guy who made it really is crazy. I ordered a case once just to try it, I can only describe it as inoffensive. Pretty effective at sating hunger. Perfectly suitable as a meal replacement if you're too busy for a meal now and then; under no circumstances should you try to give up all meals.the talent deficit posted:he also took massive doses of antibiotics to kill his gut flora so he could stop pooping Does this actually work?

No. It'll also seriously gently caress up a whole bunch of other things like your cholesterol level and possibly even mood. There's new research constantly being done on the effects your gut biome has, and it seems more and more every day that we're just meat spaceships being piloted by bacteria.

Short answer, no. ~60% of the dry mass of your poop is gut flora. All this idiot is doing eliminating competition for potential pathogens for his GI tract and gently caress with his hormones possibly.

THC posted:Boost and Ensure already did all this long before Soylent came on the scene, in compliance with health Canada regs, and without giving you radiation poisoning It's doubly funny because looking at prices, Boost and Ensure are the same price as Soylent, if not cheaper bought in bulk at Costco or something. They're paying more for a shittier product made by someone who doesn't have a clue what they're doing.

Fun story, as of a few years ago graduates from top international schools have to pass national exams to get residencies in Canada, whereas even the worst Canadian students don't have to bother*. *I have no idea how true any of that (still) is so feel free to correct me if it's nonsense.

Cool, I had no idea that since my parents were immigrants that I'm still seen from a statistical standpoint as an immigrant as well even though I was born in Canada according to StatsCan. So what the hell is the definition of 'native-born' then? My kids will be considered native-born or is there gonna be a third-generation immigrant category as well?

I'd say you're both native-born and a second-generation immigrant if you were born in Canada to parents who were not born in Canada, or Canadian citizens. It's an odd wording, but it works to describe this specific case.
