Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

These guys are big into pseudoscientific fad diets ala ray peat. Also they claim canola oil causes sunburn now. Just bizarre.
(i figure a lot of this is covert status display stuff - class signals etc)
The seed oil / sunburn thing is something I saw going around online just this week. Is there /anything/ behind it at all or is it just another chunk of LessWrong science by anecdata?
I’m not sure but am personally very skeptical because its associated with health grifters.
