    So, I want to learn programming...

    A lot of people are suggesting things that cost money like MATLAB, SAS, or C#. Those are great tools, but it really depends where you see yourself in the future. If you are leaning towards working at smaller startups, don't bother with such tools as they are probably not going to have licenses...

    Handstand pushups

    My max military press is 110. I can do about 7 HSPU against a wall with pretty strict form---head touching ground. I can only do about half range of motion freestanding without a wall, though. It may be more of a balance issue, however.

    So, I want to learn programming...

    I've found that the best way to learn R is just read general statistics books that have R code. General R books aren't that useful. For instance if you want to learn Bayesian statistics: http://www.amazon.com/Doing-Bayesian.../dp/0123814855 Not sure why you need to know any web...

    So, I want to learn programming...

    I'm a Data Scientist. Don't bother with C++. Most data people rarely write production code. You may want to learn Java with the goal of becoming familiar with Hadoop and MapReduce. Generally, you just need to be a good enough programmer to be able to prototype ideas. Then, production code is...

    Help me diagnose this mental disorder

    Here's a paleo approach to mental disorders. It does come with the caveat that this approach hasn't been clinically tested, but there is some science and doctors behind it. http://www.marksdailyapple.com/autism-a-brain-or-whole-body-disorder/#axzz209IgSLFA

    Help me diagnose this mental disorder

    Interesting. May I ask what the allergies were and what dietary changes you've made? I've heard of gluten being related to mental conditions such as schizophrenia, epilepsy, depression, and autism. For instance, see this article: http://www.nutritionandmetabolism.com/content/6/1/10/. I've...

    Couple questions about low-carb

    Did you even read the links? In any case, I imagine that you think that the effect of carb overload is high blood sugar, and therefore, diabetes. Blood sugar is actually better controlled with less frequent meals. Source...

    Couple questions about low-carb

    http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/23/health/23really.html http://www.leangains.com/2010/10/top-ten-fasting-myths-debunked.html There is absolutely no science behind this eating 5-6 meals per day nonsense. I have no idea why it's constantly repeated. I have a theory that it's perpetuated by...

    Do you exceed daily recommended sodium intake? Yes, you do.

    I'm not sure why this isn't more widely known, but potassium is found in more than fruits and vegetables. Meat is a very good source of potassium. If meat, fruits, and vegetables form the basis of your diet (therefore, a somewhat paleo diet), meeting your potassium requirements is fairly...

    Guy at work has dropped 150+ pounds...

    Actually, the two most popular legumes, peanuts and soybeans, were not part of the American diet until very recently. They've only been commonly consumed by humans in US since WWII. It's only because the US government has subsidized them that they have become very popular. Just because they...

    30 Local H.S Students banned from graduation for prank.

    How can you say the same thing about eating meat? Meat has been around eaten since the dawn of human existence, which occurred about 200,000 years ago. Before that, our ancestors also ate meat. Earliest evidence of eating peanuts is a mere 10,000 years ago (source...

    Paleo Questions

    I'm aware that there are many logical fallacies associated with cavemen didn't have these diseases, so if I want to avoid those diseases, I should eat like a caveman. However, I just simply feel better and perform better eating this way. Just because science can't explain why it works so well...

    See above post. If it weren't for government intervention, peanuts would not be a common food.

    30 Local H.S Students banned from graduation for prank.

    Actually, some people question whether peanuts should be considered 'food' at all. If it wasn't for our good friends at the USDA and government subsidies, consumption of peanuts would probably be very rare. They have only been regularly consumed for the past 100 years, a relatively short time...

    Paleo Questions

    Really? I have had the exact opposite experience. I can now get by just eating 2 meals a day with no snacking and feel great instead of 3 meals with snacking. Paleo man probably didn't have the luxury of eating three square meals per day. Our bodies should be well-adapted to go for long periods...

    I've been Paleo for 4 months now

    Paleo is pretty awesome. It does take work for sure. It's not all that convenient to cook so often and turn down cake and pizza I admit; however, IMO, carrying around extra weight and feeling sluggish all the time is even less convenient. This is me...

    So I have a plan.

    I'll have to concede that you're right. I sort of assume that people tend to under count calories or have cheat days where they eat above maintenance, but in this case, that might be a bad assumption since OP seems to have some mental issues with food. Prolonged calorie restriction tends to...

    So I have a plan.

    1500-1800 should be enough as long as you aren't training too hard (doesn't sound like you are) and it's 1500-1800 calories of quality food. Make sure you're getting in lots veggies and a few servings of meat to ensure you get your micronutrients and protein. You need the protein because your...

    2 weeks into SL5x5... my progress report!

    Wow, I thought that I was low on carbs. For me, I typically have about 10-25% of my calories from carbs depending if its a lifting day or not. Looks like you've done your research but have you considered cycling your carbs? I got much better results and put on some lean mass when I added in a...

    Stumpy trying to be less Stumpy this year! Goal: 30lbs off

    Feel free to ignore my advice, but I couldn't lose any inches until I stopped eating so many carbs and eating more fat and protein. Unfortunately, beer is carbs, so you probably can't have more than 1 or 2 per day. Protein is especially important since without muscle, you still don't look too...

    Picky eater needs to gain weight...

    Generally, you just need to eat more. All the foods that you like are pretty dense calorie-wise. It really should be pretty easy for you to gain weight if you don't care whether that weight is fat or muscle. If you eat that type of food and lots of it and still aren't gaining weight, it's...

    high triglycerides level

    Why does your food have to be warm? Sure cold food doesn't taste as good but it's perfectly edible. It's not necessary to reheat leftovers. Also, there's no reason to eat three square meals per day. If there's no good food options, just skip the meal and eat more later to make up for it. All of...

    high triglycerides level

    http://nature.berkeley.edu/hellerstein-lab/pdfs/MKH_COL_2002.pdf Cut carbs, mainly sugar. Fat isn't that big of a concern. This will definitely lower your triglycerides. The paper above says it is ambiguous whether it will actually lower your risk for CHD.

    If this is the case, maybe for you less is more. You're probably burning through way too many calories if you're spending that much time in the gym.

    I'm tired of being fat

    This is a common myth at least when it comes to whole wheat as the link above shows. This myth is probably perpetuated by Big Agra. GI is a measure of how fast your blood sugar rises. As you can see from the data, white bread and whole wheat bread raise your blood sugar almost equally fast.

    I'm tired of being skinny?

    Eat more. You probably think that you eat a lot, but it's still not enough. Count your calories and macros. Most people do this lose weight, but guys like you and I have to do this to gain weight. If you're pretty active, you should probably be pushing 3500+ calories/day with something like 40%...

    Training for a marathon while keeping up with lifting?

    I would do a periodization approach. For half the year, focus on running and only lift 1-2 times/weeks. For the other half of the year, focus on lifting and only run 1-2 times/week with some HIIT. Fall and Winter might be a good time to focus on lifting as it gets quite cold outside depending...

    I'm tired of being fat

    I'm not sure if whole grains are such a good idea. Whole grain bread pretty much has the same GI as white bread. (Source: http://www.health.harvard.edu/newsweek/Glycemic_index_and_glycemic_load_for_100_foods.htm) Adding fat (like butter with the bread) slows gastric emptying and lowers the...

    Since March 24th to today have lost 18lbs! Not to my goal yet though

    I can agree that carbs provide fiber and important nutrients. Well, at least fruits and vegetables do, grains (even whole grains) are pretty much devoid of nutrition, however. The average American that sits in an office for 8 hours/day and spends 3 hours/day watching TV burns very little...

    The Ultimate Weight Gainer

    I wouldn't worry about the saturated fat. No one has ever proven that saturated fat causes heart disease. Nuts tend to be a bit high in n-6 fatty acids however, which can be inflammatory in the absence of n-3 fatty acids.
