171·7 days agoI’d like to interject for a moment. There is also a tool called bat that is just cat with extra features. It prints out and works just like cat, but when the contents get too big, it works like less. The is syntax highlighting and works with git.
It’s replaced my need for cat and less.
I love birds, especially ducks!
I agree with ‘superfoods not being real’. The only thing that I can definitely say qualifies somewhere close to a ‘superfood’ is black pepper and long pepper.
Black pepper and long pepper have a compound called piperine. Piperine drastically improves nutrient absorption.
Curcumin/Turmeric is often taken as a supplement, however, it has a very very low bioavailability (like 1% gets absorbed or something – don’t quote me on that). So it is commonly paired with black pepper, or more distinctly, piperine. Piperine increases its bioavailability by 2,000%!! Which literally means that you absorb 2,000% more than if you were to take curcumin/turmeric by itself!
I am unsure how it affects other nutrients, but I am certain that it also improves absorption. There are products that sell piperine itself. Most notably Bioperin.
WARNING: Piperine also increases absorption of certain drugs as well. Do not take piperine with any drug unless you know what you’re doing!
Ncdu looks pretty cool. I’ll give it a spin! I’ve tried a good handful of TUI file managers but most of doesn’t feel right, so I made my own little script in attempt to scratch that itch. Not completely satisfied with it but it works ¯\(ツ)/¯
