What are the drawbacks of this battery compared to a Lithium-Ion battery? I would assume practicality (sizing, installation, etc...) but I would be interested to hear others thoughts on this. This site does a great job marketing the battery but not defining the drawbacks, hence why I am asking.

The timing of when I eat changes, if I gain weight. Eating pizza after jogging? Fat on belly.

Eating as much pizza as I want, but going to bed after on empty stomach after running, or putting the running in the morning while doing about 12 to 16 hour slots of intermitted fasting? Hello, six-pack.

That is a pretty interesting observation. I always thought it was solely on the amount of calories consumed vs burned. For example, you burn ~2500 through just living, if you eat a pizza that contains 3000 calories, no matter the time at which you eat it, will you not still gain fat?

Also, I have to wonder when this fad of loudly announcing when something is written in Rust will finally come to pass. Maybe software written in other languages should loudly announce it in every second sentence? To me at least it's become as self-aggrandizingly cringe as "Sent from my iPhone" at the end of every email...

Think about the implications of the language though. When something is written in rust, management of memory is safer, multi threaded applications are safer, etc... (due to the nature of the language). If something is written in C++, the developer might be more inclined to review the code and tests to ensure proper handling of memory as well as determining if (when there is) non-deterministic behavior is safe. Hence, when highlighting something is written in Rust, it might not be just for the buzzword but also for something like developer confidence.

Seriously contemplating if it is even worth applying in this type of job market. Being young, would it not be more beneficial to just contribute to Open Source projects in which my actual passion for the field comes from and additionally find outside work to just get by? I guess it all comes down to an individual's ambitions and goals in life, but seeing some of my colleagues and friends do nothing but apply to jobs for a straight year seems extremely unfulfilling (mind you this is a perspective of a new-grad in CS).
