Should have turned down the volume on my phone.
psygn89•4mo ago
I wonder if the phone has an auto volume off feature after no sound plays after n minutes? I have an app on my mac called AutoMute that does similar, but it just mutes my mac whenever my headphones get disconnected.
unsnap_biceps•4mo ago
Macs remembers the volume per device
psygn89•4mo ago
True, but it's for my forgetful self where I raised the volume on the mac speakers to play something aloud, then plug in my earphones and play some death metal only to get up and walk away quickly accidentally yanking it out. At least 10 years ago it would continue playing the music at whatever volume I had the mac speakers on.
numpad0•4mo ago

Forces volume on speaker to stay at zero unless temporarily disabled or headphones are connected. Works great.

katdork•4mo ago
I find the audio-visual experience (tilted elements, slightly blurry or shaky, semi-kinetic and burpy cronchy weird noises) of this website jarring as the act of over-consumption itself. Nicely done.

A perfect metaphor.

breakingcups•4mo ago

How do you track all of these data points per day?
aeturnum•4mo ago
I would also love to know how OP integrated logging these! I'm interested in this kind of tracking but I haven't found an ergonomic way to use it (not that I've tried hard).
burkaman•4mo ago
Not my site and I couldn't figure out who the author is. Some of it could definitely be automated but I know I would have a very hard time recording food consistently like this.
cryzinger•4mo ago
This seems to be the creator:

fishgoesblub•4mo ago
Websites really need a warning before they play an incredibly loud sound without any notice. Infuriating.

Actually this is not needed, because you can configure Firefox to block autoplay of audio and video content on all websites by default.

Please eat some protein
OisinMoran•4mo ago
Yeah, it's quite worrying. The best I'm seeing is just two eggs, which is about a tenth of the total protein they should probably be eating.

If you're reading thus, the general rule of thumb is 1.8g/kg of lean body mass. Works out as around 4 meals per day of 20-40g of protein each, depending on weight.

Wonderful website! I would like the creator to continue existing for as long as possible.

0_____0•4mo ago
That's way more than the US RDA, which is 0.8g/kg.

I try to hit 2g/kg when I'm actively training as an athlete, and it's not that easy, and the tradeoffs to diet probably aren't worth it for most people.

OisinMoran•4mo ago
And how's that going for the US?

Public health recommendations have a notoriously poor record (take the food pyramid for example), so RDAs aren't exactly the way to build a healthy diet. [0]

For example, here's a paper uncovering a statistical error in the calculation of the RDA for Vitamin D (600IU), resulting in it being over 10x lower than it should be (~9000IU). [1]

[0] From Harvard Health website: "The RDA is the amount of a nutrient you need to meet your basic nutritional requirements. In a sense, it's the minimum amount you need to keep from getting sick — not the specific amount you are supposed to eat every day."

[1] https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4210929/

xdfgh1112•4mo ago
Lol that is a broscience number that is barely relevant for most people. Where did you learn this?
OisinMoran•4mo ago
It's not bro science, and the number I gave is actually less than the standard recommendation of 1g/lb of bodyweight per day, which you can see explained here [0].

Most people should be doing some form of resistance training, so not sure how this can be "barely relevant for most people".

turboponyy•4mo ago
You only need that much protein if you're trying to build muscle. The amount needed for a generally healthy diet is much lower.
OisinMoran•4mo ago
There is no generally healthy diet that doesn't include building muscle.
std_vector•4mo ago
this is an amazing set of websites, coherently designed
zeryx•4mo ago
That can't be all the food their eating right? That's like 1/5th of the calories I eat as an athletic man
progbits•4mo ago
Some of the days are pretty wild.

... and for someone who's watching The Bear, a show about food especially aimed at food lovers.
rpgbr•4mo ago
I thought The Bear was about a bunch of people yelling at each other.
wavemode•4mo ago
It's a show about the food industry, so you're correct.
snicky•4mo ago
Wow, this diet looks very healthy, but on some days the calorie intake seems very low.
ikesau•4mo ago
I love this.

Maybe these are incompatible desires, but I would really like some kind of system that allows me to own and present my own music listening data while also allowing me to interoperate with a broader music listening culture.

Newsletters and blogs are great for discovery, but I also really value the way my last.fm has allowed me to recall a band I used to listen to a decade ago because I can remember a few of their contemporaries that are neighbours in the Similar Artists graph.

wrayjustin•4mo ago
Do you mean something like last.fm with their API [0]? Or did you have something more in mind?

[0] https://www.last.fm/api

RealStickman_•4mo ago
I think you can self host ListenBrainz, or use their public instance. I started scrobbling all my music consumption a few months ago.

Being part of MusicBrainz, they also have metadata for most tracks or you can amend it yourself.

ikesau•4mo ago
Ah, this might be exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!
bakztfuture•4mo ago
Very cool - how is the data being integrated under the hood?
ge96•4mo ago
