Random blue check spouts disinformation about "seed oils" on the internet. Same random blue check runs a company selling "safe" alternatives to seed oils. Yud spreads this huckster's disinformation further. In the process he reveals his autodidactically-obtained expertise in biology:
Are you eating animals, especially non-cows? Pigs and chickens inherit linoleic acid from their feed. (Cows reprocess it more.)
Yes, Yud, because that's how it works. People directly "inherit" organic molecules totally unmetabolized from the animals they eat.
I don't know why Yud is fat, but armchair sciencing probably isn't going to fix it.
A lot of rationalism is just an intense fear of death. Simulation hypothesis? Means that maybe you can live forever if you're lucky. Superintelligence? Means that your robot god might grant you immortality someday.
Cryogenics? Means that there's some microscopic chance that even if you pass away you could be revived in the future at some point. Long terminism? Nothing besides maybe someday possibly making me immortal could possibly matter.
I mean don't get me wrong I'd give a lot for immortality, but I try to uhh... stay grounded in reality.

cows have nanoassemblers
That reminds me. If the world is about to FOOM into a kill-all-humans doomscape, why is he wasting time worrying about seed oils?

The whole ‘trad clean’ market on twitter is wild. You’d be amazed at the mark ups of like, tortilla chips.
