What tells?

Traversing life without a cell phone is a fun experiment. Here and there I forget mine and spend a day without the distraction - glorious way to spend time.

London city or London and all surrounding small town areas? I’m outside NYC. Tons of apps in NYC market and I can’t imagine another. But the suburban market has fewer or none. My p…

> homohysteria Do men (here) experience this often? Not often? I’ve not stumbled into this problem in many years. Perhaps this is an exaggerated issue. And I’m still making male fr…

I’m interested but then I ask: who pays? Not cynically. Just, is this a hobby for someone? If so, awesome. In my town we have a WhatsApp org for local musicians that helps with gea…

Interesting 0.02. Recents for me: 2020 X5 xDrive40i, 2023 M340 xdrive, 2026 i4 xDrive40i. When I bought the X5, I tried all sorts of other comparable models, both higher and lower …

Just tried this as part of an ask about chronic inflammation. What an enormous difference your tip makes in the reply style and structure - wow. And thank you.

Both suck. I think the entire industry would dump Rekordbox, but it is the tool the matches the CDJs.

I drink Celsius. Not every day, but here and there. Also coffee. So, a real answer instead of "it doesn't" - It doesn't taste like coffee. Relatively flavorful, but obviously a bit…

That’s fair and I’m not saying there isn’t room for improvement. It’s a more general feeling - JIRA just being one example that I hear people hate (and try to make better). My gut …

I’m not an engineer (by trade) so I am not as deep as many of you in the tooling. But this article mirrors my thinking on every new notes app, or new “second brain,” or somehow new…

Neat. Bookmarking to revisit. Does your team do any headline writing and or manual section? Your site reminds me of Techmeme.

I don’t. But I will at least consider the thinking about my kids (8, 4) should look into alternative paths.

Do you do anything else for hair? Like Minoxidil, Finasteride, or other serums/etc. Just curious for other folks experiences as they are on or off creatine in parallel with other h…

I noticed hair thinning too. To be clear I don’t know that creatine caused it. But what feels like a longer period of thinning (I’m 43) coincides with creatine use. It’s not a well…

I am experimenting with less caffeine - not a total cut. Nothing conclusive to report but my goal is to cut somewhat to understand how much caffeine is driving anxious behaviors.

I take 5g/day, through better part of last 9-12 months (don't remember when I started). No noticeable cognitive difference/improvement. And the more I've researched creatine the le…

> 7. Ground Your Emotions Yup. But also - no shame and guilt for experiencing them. And, your expectations of happiness. Something I’m recently internalizing more than I did in the…

I like your take. Do you feel it also a lack of interest in genuine evaluation of hard options? Not all policy is easy to understand, but I feel (anecdote) that lots of folks don’t…

I wasn't familiar with either Oink or What.CD - fascinating to read about them. I spent tons of time on Napster and LimeWire roughly between late 1990s and 2005 when I graduated fr…

Thank you for this reply. I thought the parent comment was blunt, and perhaps honest. But perhaps it could have added some positive and constructive commentary rather than saying w…

Is help narrowly chemical here or is help in general? Someone else replied suggesting psychiatry - curious if that is what you meant.

You are spot on. I see all this in me, too. Very interesting to encounter your take. I try to turn what-ifs into actions. Instead of a what if rumination it is a small task, or a s…

And Substack to that list too.
