I've made a new video against low-carb diets

[awty]

Oh look, a new diet from my cardiologist. Stop taking heart meds, wrap a stick of butter with bacon and sprinkle liberally with salt. Deep fry if you can figure out how.

Said he read the fascinating 'research' by the Galileo of the forum and realized his years of study and working as a practicing cardiologist mean nothing.

How it does not? The fact is that a significant percentage of people (if I remember correctly, around 41%) having a heart attack also have low blood pressure. If the relationship is causal (and it is hard to imagine it is not), that means that, had those people eaten something that increases blood pressure (such as salt), maybe they wouldn't have gotten a heart attack, right?

OK, I'll weigh in here. When was the BP measured? Was it clinically diagnosed prior to the patient's admission for a heart attack? Just maybe heart failure results in lower BP during admission to the hospital for said condition? Maybe some of them flat-lined. Guaranteed to give a low blood pressure reading. How much med school have you been through? What makes you actually competent, other than some hearsay that you read? You come here asking for programming help, and you claim to be a programmer. Do you get the gist of what I'm saying, here?

Surely you aren't suggesting they may not be the expert they think they are?

That program prints:

Code:

P=0.001 that I am dead wrong.

I don’t know why he hasn’t already been recognized for his breakthrough work in the field. ?

 You guys are killin' me!

ETA- Paleo, I've seen some shit code in my time, but this is truly precious!

The compiler I use is libertarian.  It doesn't tell you code must be written any certain way.

Funny! But when I look back at all the FORTRAN code I've written, I'd beg to differ. Like the honey badger, FORTRAN compiler doesn't give a shit.

Hah!  It did exactly what the punch card told it to.  That bastard.
