I use Abbott Freestyle Libre 3 and it has been deeply insightful about my progress with T2D. An increase in fasting glucose over 2-3 days tells me I need course correction (more movement, choice of food).
I also noticed consistent correlation between bad sleep days and raised glucose levels over the day. Made me internalize how important sleep is.
I believe, next major uptick will come from CGM in wearables like Apple/Samsung watches [1][2].
I hope, even non diabetic folks use it to improve their health.
My read on lot of justifiable criticism of langchain is, that it is rooted in trying not to lose out the lead it established since Nov 2022.
Pace of updates in LLM space have been staggering.
Langchain hasn’t invested enough in quality of lib. A good lib needs good deliberation to build right abstractions that add value, then “get out of the way“.
Strangely, no traction on this HN post in last 3 days.
None of Github posts explain, if GPT-4 is now being used instead of Codex for code generation cases.
AFAIK, GPT-4 is not fine tunable, and GPT-4 is more general trained than for code. So I wonder how did they achieve a GPT-4 switch.
Or maybe GPT-4 is only used for other use cases.
A neighbour might need help with groceries or meds.
Look around, see how you can help others. Don't expect anything back.
Know that you made super tiny winy dent in the world. It's powerful energy.
If early waking up is your thing, go out and look at dawn sun.
Simple things.
See anything negative? Toxic gossipers? switch off, skip. Period.
You are making choice to see and accentuate the positive around you.
This is hard time for you - and it is finite.
Sounds like you have good thing going (your PhD). It's supposed to be hard. Get positive energy, buckle up and just run that course with support system in the research group.
Not all calories are equal.
Calories from carb rich food are metabolized different than calories from “healthy“ fat rich food.
Metabolism of former also raises insulin + glucose in blood stream, which influences obesity more than later.
The only way those differences really matter, as long as you are getting enough protein that you arent catabolizing muscle mass, is in what they do to how much you eat and perhaps exercise. Even if an insulin spike makes you crave junk food and not want to go for a walk, it's all still CICO to more than a first approximation.
Not to mention how different foods might affect different hormone levels and even the microbiome in your gut which seems to have a lot of affect on the brain as well as other systems.
