On: Omega-3 is inversely related to risk of early-onset dementia

[aedrax]

unfortunately the effectiveness from Omega 3 is from DHA and EPA but ALA (seed based omega 3) is minimal effective. Algae based omega 3 might be fine though

Ok, interesting. I did some research about those studies, claiming that. And it seems best to combine Linseed with Fish or Algae!

TBH this sounds way to complicated. How could we survive? My guess is, all the studies are incomplete and flawed in some ways.

" Linseed oil, but not fish oil, leads to a desirable reduction in arachidonic acid (Omega-6) concentration."

I'm working on a tool specifically for viewing log files, it started when I wanted to open logcat files and have filtering but I couldn't really do that with a lightweight tool, Wireshark works well and I found a cool tool called lognote. so I started making my own, and I wanted to display things different ways and make it easy to add features. it's still a work in progress but I'm proud of it so far

I thought rust was supposed to be backwards compatible?

[demurgos → aedrax]

2014 would indicate a version before Rust 1.0

[huntaub → demurgos]

Correct -- we were using like Rust nightly before 1.0.

On: Apple Silicon Macs now natively support Unreal Engine 5

[aedrax]

I only mean this in a friendly, helpful way, but you mean silicon rather than silicone

Of course :) as always autocorrect twist my words :)
