   i have kyphosis (moderate) and scoliosis (mild). i had debilitating pain at times and thought I’d need surgery. I was lucky and ran into doctors that wouldn’t give me pain meds and insisted I not pursue surgery. Finally in my early 30s read

   there's a great bit from Louis CK on this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1-7AKx_4Ug "You get to read to kill a mockingbird." when he says it is hilarious and I often remember that when moments seem shitty.

   chop wood, carry water. this is inherently hard in a world of performance reviews, and corporate ladders to climb. especially when it’s heavily implied that you need to advance or move on.

   a house isn’t a particularly good investment. it’s just the one everyone, in america, makes because they’re financially illiterate. anyone can buy ETFs now with zero commission and zero gate keeping.

    not the case with cdk. i hate IAC in general. terraform being one of my least favorites due to mostly being declarative, verbose, and the way it manages state. cdk is a large improvement and moves towards just being code.

    "But CDK transpiles into CloudFormation templates. For that reason alone I can’t recommend it." CDK is superior to terraform for a glaring reason: it's a first class citizen in AWS' eyes and terraform is not.

    you’re asking for them to remove the part that prints them money. the only reason they’re going this route is the whistle blower leaking and hopes to appease regulators before regulation.

    this gets brought up every few years. it’s basically click bait at this point. the only way we see change on this is if the corrupt people who can make millions doing almost nothing vote against their own financial interests. there could be

    union dues create a huge conflict of interest for union leadership. it turns it into a career path and you become a politician. if union leadership was volunteer, and dues weren’t required, maybe that sort of union would be less susceptible

    i’m in a similar spot as the OP. lifting helps, but i’m still pretty fat. 5’11” 250lbs. worksets are 355lb squat, 225lb bench, 425lb deadlift, 175lb overhead press. it’s hard to tell i’m strong, but i’m slightly more slender at this weight

    pagerduty on a nexus 5 brought the phone completely to it's knees due to low ram, and probably some amount of responsibility on the pagerduty app not doing something gracefully. this was the google flagship phone at the time, pals with

    google doesn't control for device screen sizes, software that other vendors load on, or the CPU/ram/storage on the phone, watch, or tablet. they also allow 3rd party app stores. this creates an experience that is out of googl

    while recent headlines make this seem truer than ever, will there really be no hope from the massive incentives showing up now TO do something? could there be a manhattan project like event that invents our way out of this?
