it's also so aggressive about taking out debug log statements and in-progress code. I'll ask it to fill in a new function somewhere else and it will remove all of the half written …

beetroot juice was a few years ago and it's for a different purpose - nitric oxide to relax smooth muscle in the airways. the red recovery drink at recent events is tart cherry jui…

I've seen this exact pair of coyotes three times now. I have a few blurry photos of them. They're about the size of my dog, who is roughly 60 pounds, so they are sizable and could …

it's also true for people in cgs (centimeters, grams, seconds) sports like running, cycling, and lifting. if you look at the best in the world (pogacar, ingebrigtsen, blummenfelt) …

I recently spoke with someone in biotechnology who was doing a deep dive on "exercise pills". she told me that it would only be approved if it treated a specific disease, like musc…

what if positive feedback loops are on short timescales (1k years) and negative feedback loops are on geologic timescales (1 million years)? then for current human purposes the neg…

I considered this for my pet's medical care. I did some things at a very expensive private equity owned bay area vet clinic, and other things at a much cheaper location quite a dri…

probably a significant amount, otherwise private equity wouldn't be buying veterinary practices all around the nation. I know that the service I receive at a veterinary clinic I us…

Someone who has never thought about off roading or 4x4s may be very surprised that the dirt matters so much because they have never thought about it. So it sounds like an important…

inside my office bike storage room, and inside my apartment building basement. the even more expensive carbon road bike goes inside my apartment. the city bike can be locked up for…

I don't like riding heavy bikes with mechanical brakes because they never stop as reliably as good hydraulics. The ultimate limit is always the tire grip on the road, but it's easi…

I would only buy an e-bike with a premium brand name motor and battery. Bosch, Panasonic, Yamaha, Shimano, Giant. The next thing I would look for is 2 or 4 piston hydraulic disc br…

depending on the failure type (shear, compression, tension) carbon fiber behaves differently. but when the fibers actually break it pops so quickly that it exceeds human perception…

the comment above you is correct that consumer goods will often brag about "aircraft grade" when referring to 6061. like flashlights, tools, combs, pens, cufflinks, money clips, et…

it takes incredible engineering to make a 10s video have 360p visual quality but still require approximately 500mb of data to load

There are a lot of men in tech with lots of money, engineering expertise that they believe will carry over to biology, and a fear of becoming old and irrelevant.

Exercise moderates negative feelings and hormones and often causes people to maintain a better sleep and diet routine. Everything in life becomes easier with a light/moderate regul…

Or, if you're working in a multi story office or apartment, take the stairs instead of the elevator. It seems silly but it actually makes a big difference to go from mostly sedenta…

They will still function but a 12spd Ultegra / Force road bike will eat the chain and cassette and lose shifting precision if they're not maintained regularly. And high end road bi…

I have my high maintenance carbon road bike, but I also have a belt drive commuter bike. Belt drive bikes with hydraulic disc brakes and internal gear hubs rarely need maintenance,…

The questions in this specific midterm, and the readings and expected answers, also have a strong ideological direction.

"Takes a New Midterm" I think this is attempting to imply something interesting, but the questions asked in the midterm don't appear to say anything novel or interesting about gpt-…

one other to add: claim high-value projects/tasks, but don't finish them. when another team starts working on the same problem, schedule a meeting over their head and tell the othe…
