1/Optimal Foraging Theory predicts the evolution of the supermarket, takeaways, microwaveable food, home food deliveries (even easier with apps), and whatever ease of food delivery system comes next.

Yet another survival mechanism which modern abundance has turned against us.
2/ WILD (scarcity): Obtain energy with the least relative energy cost.

MODERN (abundance): Calories should be earned (for health)

Our anti-harm protective mechanisms are working against us; the immune system, fat storage & IR
3/
* Insulin Resistance - a protective mechanism deranged by modern food environment.

* Obesity - a protective mechanism deranged by modern food environment.

* Inflammation - a protective mechanism deranged by modern food environment.

1/ Repeat:

Non-hyperglycaemic Insulin Resistance is an evolutionary *protective* mechanism against scarcity -designed to spare glucose for brain oxidisation

The 'predispositions' that lead2chronic disease in a modern environemnt are protective mechanisms in a wild environment
2/ ...your predispositions are good. The problem is the mismatch btwn the modern (abundant food/abundant comfort) environment and our hunter-gatherer physiology.

Modern science/medicine says your predispositions which lead to disease means the problem is with you -so you need
3/ to have drugs or surgery to correct you.

But the problem isn't your physiology - it's doing it's job, the job it was designed for.

What is your body telling you? It's saying, "I don't like this environment, I can't cope with it"

You need to recreate a wild environment...

1/ Most people think of Visceral Fat as the 'harmful' fat - this is incorrect, it is a protective system

I'll say this until I'm blue in the face - the human body is designed to deal with harm/scarcity not comfort/abundance. The mechanisms which are Protective in the wild are...
2/ harmful in an abundant (modern) environment; Inflammation, Obesity, Insulin Resistance. PROTECTIVE RESPONSES.

A predisposition to these things is only bad today, not 50k yrs ago. The cure to maladaptive/deranged protective mechanisms is not drugs but...
3/ replicating the supply of Nature.

Visceral fat was an angel for our Hunter-Gatherer friends but is the devil for us.

People don't understand that what is good at one level is bad at another; and they don't understand that scale changes the nature of the beast

Compulsory vaccination is just the start.

One day all children will be chipped: Firstly, it will be optional - benefits will be touted as healthcare, national insurance, credit, biometrics, personal details, etc.,will be on the cloud "to give the individual a better service"..
Secondly, it will still be optional BUT to access medical, benefits, schooling, etc you need to be chipped. Thirdly, it will become compulsory. Lastly, individuals who aren't chipped will be deemed criminals, fined, imprisoned, not allowed to travel...
[2nd order effect of compulsory vaccination for school is that more parents will home-school their kids].

Has Doordash really overtaken $GRUB & Ubereats, per this @FortuneMagazine piece? "Though DoorDash is top when it comes to consumer $; it trails Uber Eats in total # transactions."
IMO, data seems suspect due to my informal polling.
#delivery $uber
1. According to bit.ly/2WjB5ZY @jonathanmaze, $GRUB is still top
2. Restaurant give delivery co too much power. Contrasts $GRUB & $UBER mentions vs no mentions of $SYY Sysco
3. Shouldn't $10B delivery rev be / by 15% take to get correct rev comparisons w/ restaurant
1. Delivery attracts new customer for restaurants $MCD: 70% of delivery were ppl who don't dine-in, ~30% cannibalization
2. Avg check per delivery 2x dine-in check; offsets $ to $GRUB
3. $PNRA spent $100M + $2 net variable exp for own delivery

Happy Monday! Let’s kick it off w/a Bernie Sanders accomplished a bunch list!

We see folks parroting old smears spread by that nasty Super Pac, saying the Bern achieved nada bc he’s an uncompromising ideologue who doesn’t know how to get things done./1

occasionalplanet.org/2016/03/04/a-l…
Bernie’s in the midst of a distinguished career as a social justice activist & elected official. He’s been a mayor, member of Congress, and a senator.

Bernie’s life has been honed by decades of hard work as a public servant on behalf of poor & middle class Americans. /2
Bernie ran for president-without taking Wall Street $, corporate $, or having a Super Pac for unlimited dinero.

He’s had the integrity to live his life according to progressive values. He’s never shilled for big banks & corporations. That’s quite an accomplishment in DC./3

It’s easy to feel helpless in this world we live in— so many people always so busy and distracted by the tasks their every day life demands.

They don’t even have time to ask themselves why they’re always stressed out, much less “listen to politics.”

That was the plan.
2)
You were designed to feel helpless but empowered.

“I spent 50 K on school so that I can make that much a year for the rest of my life!”

“Omg I’ll own my house in 30 years!”

Not really because you also owe property taxes yearly. So really the government owns your home. Yay!
3)
“I pay taxes because I’m a good person and care about people and the environment!”

Well, you openly hate babies and families, so why do you even care what’s going to be around after you? What comes next?

Not your cats, and you already killed all the babies.

@entreprenenture
Let's have our weekly #GlobalEChats and discuss the topic of #foodtech #delivery.

As #food is a necessity, it is natural that #entrepreneurs are lured into venturing in the F&B business. What more with #IR40, we often think of taking business one step ahead: by involving tech!
Now let's break this down into two types of niche within #fooddelivery and #fnb industry.

1. You own the restaurant and you are providing an additional delivery #service.

2. You don't own any restaurant and you are merely the delivery service.

The two are very different!
To help put points into perspective:

#1 is a classic example of pizza stores such as @DominosMY. Any #eatery can set up its own delivery system.

#2 is a rather new invention. Such examples would be @foodpanda_my and @GrabMY's GrabFood service!

Home
no one leaves home unless home chases you
fire under feet
hot blood in your belly
it’s not something you ever thought of doing
until the blade burnt threats into
your neck
and even then you carried the anthem under
your breath

#home #warsanshire #poems
#WhereAreTheChildren
only tearing up your passport in an airport toilets
sobbing as each mouthful of paper
made it clear that you wouldn’t be going back.

you have to understand,
that no one puts their children in a boat
unless the water is safer than the land
no one burns their palms
under trains
beneath carriages
no one spends days and nights in the stomach of a truck
feeding on newspaper unless the miles travelled
means something more than journey.
no one crawls under fences
no one wants to be beaten
pitied
