    No, absolutely not. I would even be for labor organization if it had no impact on this matter primarily because I don't see why it would be a negative.

    I am all for labor organization. I just don’t see how it would be of benefit in this particular case.

    I had to set the language of my google account to English to make it finally stop auto translating YouTube. Setting the language in YouTube had worked for a few weeks, then it woul…

    I have a similar experience. It feels like riding your bike in a higher gear - you can go faster but it will take more effort and you need the potential (stronger legs) to make use…

    Today I tried to use Copilot to go through a code base and export unexported types, interfaces and unions (typescript). It had to also rename them to make sure they are unique in c…

    Yes, I notice the benefit of having the same faces around regularly at the $sport I do few times per week. You don’t say much more than hello and goodbye, but after a while you app…

    If those 30 seconds are the total time the bar is in your hands and off the floor it sounds reasonable tho, doesn’t it? The numbers quoted match about what I personally experienced…

    Agreed, it’s like doing static HTML instead of an SPA for a simple website. It’s not glamorous, it’s not exciting but it’s incredibly efficient. I have been lifting for 18 years no…

    True. The best time was a decade ago. The second best time is now.

    Maybe someone in the HN crowd knows that: Why are these robots moving so slowly? Is it for safety or does speed increase the difficulty significantly?

    This is a good demonstration of how much more work it is to refute bogus statements than it is to make them.

    Yeah, the day you start your linear progression with Starting Strength is the day you stop subscribing to fitness social media and just get strong :) I fondly remember the times
