There was a paper[1] that showed taking a 600 mg of testosterone lead with no-exercise lead to more gains in strength and muscle size than a control group who did exercise and took a placebo. So some gains may just be "magic", but of course you won't look like Arnold.

If you truly detox from caffeine even extremely small amounts will be noticeable. I knew a woman who couldn't eat chocolate because she found the amount of caffeine to be too high. I didn't even know there was caffeine in chocolate.
Fair enough, "poison" was going a bit far. I do very much suspect it's actively detrimental, but that's just my personal opinion, not fact.
There's plenty of bad human therapists. It's hard to vet quality of care when you're in crisis and bad therapists can cause great harm.

Im pretty bullish on AI therapy agents, at least for mechanistic-ish stuff like CBT where emotional attachment to the therapist isn't super important.

TFA is complaining about cloud software, not AI therapists. Totally agree with that complaint. But LLMs can run locally, and cloud software can be wrapped in enough regulations to stay private.

Squarespace is a great balance between having no website at all and WordPress.

Wix is overly complicated bloat, and you are better off just using WordPress if you need the bells and whistles or Squarespace if you don't.
FWIW the fully 3D Riven rerelease is pretty excellent, and even offers slightly different gameplay from the original, so veterans won’t be able to just breeze through.
Thank you! You're 1000% correct, Graft's approach is not a good fit for high write contention on a single Volume. Graft instead is designed for architectures that can either partition writes[^1] or can represent writes as bundled mutations and apply them in a single location that can enforce order (the SQLSync model).

Basically, Graft is not the full story, but as you point out - because it's so simple it's easy to build different solutions on top of it.

yeah I took a look at the methodology here, it seemed like this should have been accounted for in the plan though maybe I'm missing something. That said this is just one study and will play into meta-analyses at some point which are more interesting

After the 7-day wash-in, both groups followed the same RT program that comprising 3 full-body sessions a week for 12 weeks (Supplementary Materials, Table S1). All sessions were supervised by tertiary qualified exercise physiologists and commenced with a standardised warm-up of dynamic flexibility exercises. Each session consisted of 5 exercises: 2 compound movements each for the upper and lower body, and 1 isolation movement for the upper body. Four sets were prescribed for all movements to ensure an adequate weekly training volume for hypertrophy [32]. Training intensities were 6 to 12 repetition maximums (RM) with 60 and 120 s of rest between sets and exercises, respectively. To adhere to the prescribed RM, an individual’s rating of perceived exertion (RPE) on a Likert scale of 1–10 was recorded. RPE corresponds to the number of repetitions an individual perceives they will be able to perform after the set is complete, where an RPE 5 equates to 5 reps more, RPE 6 is 4 reps more, RPE 7 is 3 reps more, and so on [33]. When a RPE of 8 or lower was recorded, the external load (kg) was adjusted on successive sets to ensure that subjects achieved the target RM. The RM method was used to ensure that training intensities were relative to the individual’s abilities while also standardising the training intensity across all participants [34].

there is guy here who was a wrestler in college, and now 60+.. he eats more protein per day than most people, his muscles are dense, heavy and now painful. I mean back surgery and limited mobility.. He does two minutes of exercise, claims to "stretch" then eats more.. basically, his body is making a lot of muscle but he does not do much work, and it is degenerate at his age.
I think this takeaway is deeply flawed:

> "The sad truth is those on steroids, though sedentary, gain more muscle than those who workout without steroids."

The proper takeaway is something like: "Untrained males without prior AAS use gained more muscle over a 10 week non-exercise period than similar males who performed exercise."

These sorts of adapations are not linear and consistent, similar to the "noob gains" experienced in the first few months by novice lifters.

Anyone who has trained in a somewhat serious gym can tell you that there are many people taking steroids, often times in dosages manyfold what this study use, who have mediocre physiques.

For me, the original eye-opener about civil forfeiture was this NYT Mag article from 1994. Hard to believe it has been so long since I first read it as the sense of unfairness and suspicion of government it delivered to me is still fresh.

SULPHUR [Louisiana], POPULATION 20,552, ILLUSTRATES THE transforming power of civil
forfeiture. It is a modest Southern town with one main drag, but at its north
end stands a modernistic new office building. Outside its tinted windows and
trim lawn, the well-swept Tarmac is crowded with rows of gleaming
blue-and-white cruisers and sporty unmarked coupes, many of them equipped
with video cameras and computers. The building, cars and gear all belong to
the Sulphur Police Department.

The day after my run-in with the drug-interdiction cops, I talk with Keith
Andrus, supervisor of investigations for Sulphur's narcotics division. How
does Sulphur manage to pay for the Police Department's new building, the cars
and computers?

Andrus smiles and points to a framed news item on the wall: "Traffic
Violation Yields Police $532,100." An inset photo shows Andrus with a fellow
officer beaming from behind a table heaped with stacks of cash. Typically, a
speeder is pulled aside. When a lot of cash is found on him and his
explanation is suspect, a drug dog is summoned. If the dog smells narcotics,
the police seize the money. Because dollar bills are routinely used for
packaging and sniffing cocaine, and the minutest trace of the drug will
"infect" other bills, much of the currency in the country now tests positive
for narcotics.

Well just extremely basically, what are you gonna get when "not a democrat" forms a brand new & fully independent polity, completely outside the international system, virtually impossible to have any external insight into, not a signatory to any treaties or conventions, with no peers at all to provide any sort of mechanism for economic or humanitarian pressure and not even the realistic possibility of emigration if you're born inside it. It may not be exactly slavery as we know it historically but there are very few ways this could go I think.

Indentured servitude I believe he proposed himself actually, though I can't find it now I think it was in a twitter thread and I don't think he used those words precisely. But the idea of people taking loans for the transit costs and then working them off on mars he endorses. That could be called a few different things based on implementation I guess but given the other information we have I find it alarming. At the very least it's company town + 21st century state surveillance apparatus + the above paragraph.

And well but anyway the larger point I was making was just that his extreme political views predate covid or his daughter coming out or democrats being mean to him or several other hypotheses that are regularly asserted. If you don't find that one compelling just skip it and check the others.
Or it may be the application of principles that are described or marketed as being these old principles, but are often just junk with a fake veneer.

These giant systems really are fascinating, although I'm glad I don't work in them. And I believe they were massively advanced during World War II. Because besides the obvious task of fighting a war, a lot of military work is logistics. No large scale operation can be accomplished without putting a lot of thought and work into it. A lot of what is required is sophisticated supply chain.

You will not find it difficult to prove that battles, campaigns, and even wars have been won or lost primarily because of logistics. General Dwight D. Eisenhower

Really disagree with this author's take on robert moses. He is by far NYC's greatest hero. The abundance he created is now enjoyed by tens of millions of people every year, the poor and the wealthy. His singular vision is exactly the type of abundance this country needs. The pain brought onto a few by his plans was well worth the payoff.

The problem with Klein and Thompson's vision, as the author teases out, is that it is politically unpopular when you really dig into what theyre calling for. That's why theyre writing this book I suppose, to create support for their ideology.
> I do not understand why would anyone believe that creatine can influence muscle gains.

Simple. Being able to work out harder and longer, assuming proper sleep and nutrition, leads to greater muscle gain. There's no mystery.
Finally got a chance to watch this. LMAO so good!

I think the causality went the other way in that case. I've been roughly caffeine free at certain intervals. Never felt anything from chocolate.

And not even just use that energy, use that in a way that promotes hypertrophy. There’s lots of ways that energy could be used that doesn’t ultimately get you any muscle growth.

For example, you could be using it in athletics, running, etc and it’s not inherently going to give you growth.

The effects have been known to be small. You get a little extra energy that might push you a little further in a set going to failure or with one or two reps in reserve. Maybe you slide in some lengthened partial that you go a bit more through the range of motion that you would have had energy to do otherwise.

And that happens again and again over the course of years and you get a tiny bit extra from it, probably. I’m not sure this study design disproves that at all.
I'm wondering if it's possible to track ANY operational train, not just passenger trains. I'm a railway fan but I'm only interested in fright trains.

Yes.

And the keyword here `database` not need to mean the typical one. In fact, most tools (like git) are databases over the code. IDE, parsers, etc. POOR ONES, and probably in the way of 'any program is a poorly implemented half of lisp', but intentionally create a database interface with a relational(enhanced!) view with intentional CRUD+Queries make a lot of sense.

Supabase was neat to get started with. The moment you need any complex backend logic it all falls apart.

A lot of things, like CRUD editing in admin, is just done for you in Django.

My other issue with Supabase is just how difficult hosting actually is. Requires a whole lot of magic/weird undocumented trickery. Vs Django which just works.

It probably really depends on what you need to build though.

I don't think it's that difficult if you're training a lot and eating accordingly. For someone eating 3000 calories a day, that's less than 25% of calories from protein, which is pretty reasonable.

It's harder if you're not eating a lot overall, but still doable with some planning and the occasional protein shake.

Are you seriously demanding a source for the claim that steroids lead to greater muscle gains?
In f#'s case, there is the trifecta of everything being an expression, static typing and default immutability. This means you often write code like this:

let foo =
if bar then
baz
else
someDefault

Due to it being an expression you assign what the if evaluates to to foo.
Due to static typing, the compiler checks that both branches return the same type.
Due to the default immutability you don't declare and assign in separate steps.
What this results in, is that accidentally using the wrong indentation for something usually results in an error at compile time, at the latest.

Compared to how python does significant whitespace is that it's dynamic typing + statement based, which means you can easily end up assigning different types to the same variable in different branches of an if, for example.

I hope I explained it in understandable terms

> The value equation of a software development team isn't a product of their time and salary compared to the code/features/whatever-unit they produce. It's the theories and knowledge they build in their heads and share through the process of understanding problems and developing solutions. You can't optimize that process in a Taylorist fashion.

There is no value equation for "the theories and knowledge" that developers build in their heads. Value in software happens when customers pay for software. That's how business works. It happens to be true that developers need to build theories and knowledge in their heads, but that isn't unique to software engineering and doesn't prevent deadlines from being effective.

> "It gets done when it gets done," is a glib way of saying that progress is more important than deadlines. The idea that systems take time and what's important is that people know where we're at and where we're heading more than threatening punishment for not delivering what we estimated at an agreed upon time.

I understand the argument, having heard it from teammates ten thousand times in my career. I'm somewhat sympathetic to it, but it is not a full picture of the software business. A business that fully adopts such a strategy has no long-term plan and can't make promises to customers. That can work if you lucked into all the money in the world (Google), but most of us are not so lucky and need to deliver to customers within reasonable timeframes or the customers go to someone else who can.

I get that estimation can be hard, conversations about scope can be hard, and managing expectations can be hard. I don't care. If you still have a job in this industry you are extremely well compensated to overcome those difficulties.

“We’re going to spend the next two weeks working on X, so scope your ambitions accordingly—what’s realistic to expect in that timeframe?” seems like a perfectly reasonable and healthy negotiation to have, one compatible with respectful working relationships.
"string" is a type that only makes sense inside the context of a specific programming language, because programming languages differ on what a string is and how it behaves (is it guaranteed to be valid UTF8, does it carry its own length around with it, is it runes/graphemes and can't be split on byte boundaries easily, is it mutable, etc).

Double quotes are a syntax sugar for string literals in source code, in a particular language, to avoid writing `string.from_byte_array([97, 98, 99])` or `new String({97, 98, 99});` or whatever. Strings are single quoted not double quoted in Dyalog APL, there's several different strings in SWI Prolog depending on using double quotes or backticks and how the flags are set.

stdout is an untyped byte stream which could go to a printer or Braille terminal or anything as you say, but could be terminal control codes, image data, or whatever. The OS doesn't tend to have a 'string type' ... but in PowerShell `write-output "a"` will write a .NET System.String to the output stream, but it won't use "printf()".
