Done. Let me know what you think. BTW, it's also possible to add feeds or stop them or etc, on your own by sending messages to the bot, as long as you're a moderator for the community where they're getting sent to:

I’m especially interested in getting the abstract into the post.

This is a little more complex, since it's not completely trivial. The HTML that comes in via RSS has to get converted into Markdown for example. But I can take a look at it, there's probably a way to do it and it's probably a good improvement.

Ahh I see the syntax now. I didn't see it in the side bar before!

Thank you

Yeah, I should probably add it to the sidebar. I should also add a sidebar. :-)

I should say also: I'm pretty sure the keto diet is very bad for you. I've seen someone mess themselves up pretty badly by doing a low-carb diet to lose weight. I don't have enough knowledge to really say, which is why I'm not getting involved in saying you shouldn't run this community or have an RSS feed or anything, but that is my understanding, if you are interested in it.

Thank you for the heads up! I know its a divisive intervention, but I've done as much research as I can and my data is very much in favor.

I'm happy to discuss it, here or in !ketogenic@dubvee.org if you want to have the discussion.

Here is my default reference, a guide for doctors, written by doctors covering many of the reactions to Keto. https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/skeptical-doctors

How did your friend mess themselves up?

Yeah, I have basically 0 formal knowledge about it beyond a vague impression and some pop-science stuff. I also know a woman who did an intense low-carb diet to lose weight and really enfeebled herself by sticking to it. When she first told me about it, I was alarmed and tried to tell her not to do it, and her response was more or less "Well I don't really care about any of that, I want to be skinny." So that's hard to argue with I guess... she did achieve the goal to some extent, but she messed up her health also.

I'm fine with anyone doing whatever they feel is right for their own situation of course. Even if I was basing this on knowing the full science, which I don't, I probably wouldn't try to tell anyone they're not allowed to learn about it or talk about it and so on, just because I didn't agree with it.

Enjoy the RSS for it! Let me know if anything seems amiss or needs changes.

Thanks for the RSS tools

Yeah, I think people jumping into a diet without a good guide are setting themselves up for failure, no matter what the diet is. i.e. no matter what people are doing, they should map out their food in something like cronometer which shows them the breakout of the nutrition of what they are eating. If anything is deficient they need to satisfy themselves its ok, or to cover it.

I sent a link that gives a quick guide to it.

Hm, it looks to me like it's double posting.

Currently, the code doesn't use the Atom standard for how to detect duplicate stories, it just checks the URL. I've always gotten away with it so far, but Pubmed definitely changes the URL on articles when it updates the RSS feed, which means the bot will spam stories I think without end. Let me try to fix that and also take a look at how easy it is to get the abstract into the post content in some fairly-okay way.

I'll get back to you. But in the meantime, you might have some double posts, sorry about that.

[–] jet@hackertalks.com 2 points 2 months ago

No worries! I'll use admin powers to remove double posts for now.

Thanks for checking up on it!
