  • That quote is the second sentence in the abstract and the next sentence is:

    However, the impact of ketogenic diets (KDs), which contain even higher lipid content but reduce circulating insulin and induce ketogenesis, remains poorly understood.

    I read that as saying existing science says high-fat diets that cause you to become obese increase the risk of cancer in the small intestine. Not anything about their findings in this study specifically.

    The end of the abstract says:

    These findings reveal that dietary lipid content, through fatty acid oxidation rather than ketone metabolism, influences intestinal tumorigenesis and highlight the need for nuanced consideration of dietary strategies for cancer prevention in genetically susceptible populations.

    Which I think is implying that they found some difference between their “high-fat” (60% lard diet) and “ketogenic” (80% lard diet) cohorts.

    I can’t find the full content of the paper to verify exactly what they’re trying to say, but I think the only claims they’re trying to make are basically, ‘there’s no point in consuming externally synthesized ketones’. Which, yeah, but good to have proper scientific confirmation.



  • I’m a fairly experienced Rust Dev (I’ve been paid to write it since 2014). I’ve never use Tauri, but damn it looks complicated.

    If your goal is learning rust, I’d suggest learning on something simpler. Avoid complicated “ecosystems”, anything super macro heavy, or async in general. Go write code like you’re a college freshman. Duplicate code, call .clone() and .unwrap() with wild abandon. There’s no reason to throw all the hardest parts of the language at yourself all at once.

    If your goal is ending up with a GUI application, I don’t really have advice for you, I’ve never figured that out myself.















  • Ditto all of this.

    There are no good decently priced domain registrars at the moment. Even porkbun is just a cloudflare reseller now. The only downside of going with cloudflare is that don’t let you use your own nameservers (at least that was true the last time I checked a few years ago), but if you don’t already know that you want that, you probably don’t need it.
