> Consciousness, which nobody really ever defines clearly
"An organism has conscious mental states if and only if there is something that it is like to be that organism -— something it is like for the organism." [1]
One thing developers of products like this can do is offer an accessibly priced license for individual users in a corporation. If it's an indispensable tool for me that I use at work, and the bureaucracy for obtaining even $0.01 USD from the company is not going to happen, the individual license can be a nice middle ground. I can write it off at tax season too.
I saw the Black Triangle UFO [1] in Duluth, MN about 10 years go. It went from a low altitude hover to a slow glide across the night sky. I was standing almost directly under it in a parking lot. I thought it was a strange pattern of new streetlights for a few moments until it started gliding. Always wondered what that was.
QT is more accessible than you might assume. The QT Designer comes with a number of templates to get you running quickly. Connecting UI elements to backend code is fairly straightforward as well, and you can do much of it using the designer UI itself. Documentation is also pretty great.
As much as the size, placement, and car integration of my vehicle's (2016 CX-5) dash GPS is ideal, the fact that it cannot display Waze renders it mostly useless for my everyday commuting. Until I can do so via Carplay or Android Auto, I'll be using gaudy cell phone mounts.
One editor feature I've been looking for is the ability to lock down a region of text so that the user can drag the region around within the text or add text before/after the text. However, the contents of the region can't be edited nor deleted.
The author went through keto flu, which is a series uncomfortable adjustments your body makes as it transitions from glucose fuel to ketone fuel (ketosis). People who begin ketogenic diets know this well. Fasting feels very similar. The most acute symptom is often "brain fog", which manifests exactly how the author described.
Ketosis takes several days to begin while the body burns through its reserves of glycogen, at which point the symptoms begin, then lasts several days while basic adaptation takes place. Full adaptation to match one's athletic performance while glycogen fueled can take months.
The author didn't even mention the words ketosis nor ketones, so I have to imagine she went into this quite blindly. Once you've gone in and out of ketosis several times, you don't experience flu symptoms nearly as much and sometimes (me) not at all.
For most people a fast starts to feel magical after about day 5, where keto adaption has taken place and the mental habit and craving for food starts to subside. Obviously this will vary from person to person, so maybe the author didn't quite get far enough along to get out of the woods, so to speak.
