<p>with 2.5 grams of creatine monohydrate, 15 grams of whey protein isolate and 5 grams of carbs per serving.<p>Male trail runners already eat breakfast exactly like this on the trail they just have to prepare the concoction themselves from disparate ingredients to best preserve muscle and muscle function. Putting it together in a cereal "for men" is not just about being keto friendly (20g max carbs per day) it makes it simpler to choose your own carbs (sucrose goes direct to muscle) right for the muscular activity or recovery level ahead.<p>A century of stale big breakfast propaganda at this moment is easy to stir up. What's jarring here is not that "ballsy" tagline being used in more niche health food, it's that some random kid's random idea of masculinity should not be the first clear one to arrive in your son's head.</p>

<p>>we expect to be misled for the purpose of entertainment, and rightly decry illusion in what is presented to us as documentation<p>Believe in unbiased documentation at your peril. When you desire a peek behind the curtain into random people's lives you are going to get taken for a ride everytime. That makes scrolling heavy on entertainment value and all users know it.<p>Social media algorithm scores are just a way for us to outsource easy reputation management, that puts a lot of hops in between you and authenticity and can't really be called a "shared reality" with a straight face. Perhaps now something better can come along that doesn't favor Image marksmen.</p>

<p>It's more that big money going towards a clear and desirable endgame is a fairly sure thing. I choose to avoid lots of tech and I won't download the app but it's very hard to see how fighting a promising open tech like LLMs is the "pro-humanity" stance here.</p>
