# Key Points from #hplusroadmap IRC Discussion

• Jay Freeman (saurik) discovered a root exploit in Google Glass and criticized its security architecture, noting that Google's design decisions created "a security nightmare" that required fundamental reconsideration in the UI design.

• The Google Glass Mirror API was criticized for its severe limitations, forcing developers to deploy applications exclusively to Google App Engine, creating an unnecessarily restrictive development environment.

• Participants expressed skepticism about claims that increasing EEG electrode count would significantly improve EEG-based typing systems, noting that if this approach were effective, it would already be widely implemented for locked-in patients.

• A detailed discussion of ketogenic diets explored how muscles become insulin resistant during ketosis to spare glucose for the brain, with participants noting cognitive benefits from stable blood sugar regardless of meal timing.

• The group compared ALCAR (Acetyl-L-Carnitine) with regular L-Carnitine supplements, highlighting that ALCAR crosses the blood-brain barrier more effectively and potentially offers greater cognitive and metabolic benefits.

• Participants discussed various intermittent fasting approaches, with some practicing compressed eating windows as extreme as one meal per day to avoid hunger and blood sugar fluctuations.

• The SENS Research Foundation's 2012 Annual Report was shared (http://www.sens.org/sites/srf.org/files/reports/SENS%20Research%20Foundation%20Annual%20Report%202012.pdf), indicating ongoing interest in longevity research.
