It does not matter.   A tiny packet has 1 gram, or about 3.5 calories. The sweetness is irrelevant. The rounding down is because it's less than the allowed threshold




Cooking spray doesn't have zero calories, but the reason people think that's true is essentially due to a loophole in nutrition labeling requirements. Essentially, the label says it's 0 calories because of the declared serving size. For any foods, if the declared serving size contains less than 5 kcal (calories), the manufacturer is permitted to round down to 0. This is exactly the reason why Tic-Tacs - probably the most well-known example of this - indicate that they have 0 calories per serving, even though technically each Tic-Tac mint averages about 2 calories. Since the serving size is <5 calories, it can be rounded down to 0.

Calories are the literal energy content. The subjective taste is irrelevant.

interesting how both our comments were downvoted despite being at odds. goes to show how it's irrelevant what you say, but who says it. respected members can post anything and always gets lots of votes.

For what it's worth, i can easily eat a lot of the stuff raw without it affecting me much . Sweetness is subjective, i guess. During my diet I was unwittingly adding 200 calories a day by using too much of it, so the calories do matter. I originally thought it was  zero calories, but  I was wrong.

Debates do not matter that much. Even Biden's polls did not budge after the  worst debate performance ever. Swing states are what matter, and this is why trump will win. Her problem is that expectations will be higher compared to Biden.

because he's not white. looking good on video typically requires fully European phenotype , although blacks pull it off too. Jews look the worst. that is what I have observed at least. whites tend to have a more angular or square face and solid lower jaw  which looks better on video. But jews make up for it by being articulate, high verbal IQ.

All i am saying is that elite are necessary. People overreading into my comment to mean they are better, and heaven forbid some  bad people are promoted, as this this doesn't happen for non-elite roles too or anything else in life.

People getting way poorer  from stocks crashing than from tariffs, which aren't even going to be that bad in terms of projected increase in inflation (2-3% overall). Whole thing feels like a huge overreaction. Stock valuations are based on multiples, so a small loss of profits can mean a large decrease in share price.

Why is modern architecture so bad, and so common?




This is more like one person's opinion than a matter of fact


the WTC facade, composed of tridents situated above the square aqueduct-like arches of the foyer, was an example of visually  pleasing modern architecture. it does not always have to be bad.

A holistic  approach is better. does the person have a history of only ai-assisted posts or a mix of both?  A lot of people use AI to assist with writing when stuck. An account that only posts ai-like content should be banned though.

Be charitable. You know what I meant. Appetite goes up, metabolic rate goes down, and then yes, people either eat more food and regain the weight, or their metabolism slows down so much that it doesn't make a difference how little they eat, they still regain the weight.




Yup. And where this plateau occurs controlling for height and sex is determined by genes. Some ppl have such crappy metabolism genes they are still fat cutting to 1500kcal/day and cannot lose more. many such cases. ironically, being a bigger glutton makes wight loss and leanness easier. A guy who maintains at 250 lbs eating 5kcal/day will find weight loss easier than the same guy at same height and weight who eats 3kcal/day.

no one cares. it's evident that when even celebrities can launch coins that crash and burn and not face the consequence that the threat of the law is a paper tiger. The worst worst thing that can happen is it's a civil matter and he pays a fine. afik no one has been prosecuted for promoting or launching a coin.

the price keeps going up. the performance is better than 99% of 'legit' coins . sure it can crash, but this is true again of legit coins. Trump is savvy enough to play into this demand. he stuck to his pledge in 2024 of not selling DJT stock.

agree, Among top chess plyers in general, a super-high IQ is not that important  , but to be among the absolutely best in such a crowded, competitive field, then IQ matters a lot, i would assume. CHess is  not as g-loaded as math, but still g loaded to some extent given you need to memorize moves and think fast enough or ahead .

He doesn't want to sell because he still wants to retain voting rights. If he wanted $100 billion liquid cash he could get it either with loans (using tsla as collateral), selling tesla shares, etc. Due to the inherent volatility of Tesla, likely such a loan would need to be double collateralized , so the OP is right that he could not access all of it, but I think if he wanted $100 billion he could get it.  This is what many billionaires do. They pledge stock as collateral to borrow billions of dollars without having to actually sell the stock on the market, and without paying taxes. He came up with the funds to buy Twitter.
