Yeah it's really hard to pin down consistent numbers on this subject due to both interpersonal differences and demographic trends in data.

That doesn't seem related to my comment, are you sure that you can read English?

I wouldn't say way more. If you cut your weight in half then you can expect to cut your calorie requirements by at most a third.

Alright, but the daily expenditure will go down alongside your current weight. The average* 35 y/o 5'9" man, who exercises at least 30min a day 5 days a week, who weighs 217 will maintain weight at 2,871 while at 165 lbs will maintain at 2,452.

*average is emphasized to help explain why the calorie number is larger than in previous comments, which were a minimum estimate.

It's sort of a scientific grey area. Lots of studies say there is evidence both ways, and magazines take those and run with it to say whatever they want. Another factor is heat creation, particular with cold food and drink. Measurements have shown a varied diet could have a Daytime DIT anywhere between 5% and 50% of energy expenditure, not to mention energy expended on ATP production and various stages of digestion.

Another big factor is nutrient content, such as protein vs carbohydrates.

If you think about it, getting up and walking to the fridge is like 2 calories right there so if celery has 14 then it's not hard to imagine a deficit.

Alright but we're not going to teach people both and we're not going to teach people neither, so you shouldn't be surprised that a large institution picked the corporate product.

Some veggies are actually calorie negative.

Yes, switching to water can drastically reduce the calories in my example.

Daily Calorie use starts at around 2100 for a male 35 y/o at 5'9" and only goes up with physical activity. The number I cited for a big mac meal, 1350, is basically a consumption limit for dieting. Extreme diets go as low as 850 or even fasting. You can in theory still lose weight by consuming any number less than 2100 but the effectiveness will be hard to see and there will be a margin of error in nutritional labeling for calories.

TBH a single Big Mac meal is 1350 Cal, so if you're an adult 5'9" male and dieting then that's already your daily limit.

It sucks but you've basically gotta choose between taste quality and quantity.

AI is the best tool for recognizing satire and sarcasm, it could never ever misconstrue an author's intentions and is impeccable at understanding consequences and contextual information. We love OpenAI.

Because, if you're expected to use or at least understand that software in the work force then schooling should cover it. Open source is nice and some countries have adopted LibreOffice as their standard but Word is still so commonplace in many industries that it is an essential tool for document writing in the age of computers.

My apologies, looks like the first manned flight was on 16 November 2020 after about 9 years of delays. Weather forced them to abandon their goal of reaching the ISS.
