The custom tips should help a lot in all-day comfort. You can also get these for AirPods and other headphones. This will run several hundred dollars.

Exercise most certainly helps you lose fat, and it helps you keep your blood sugar in check. Exercise is often not good at helping people lose weight, but it is good at helping them lower their body fat and increase lean body mass. You'

I've seen other data that says that 50% of weight lost on these drugs is muscle mass, which is high for weight loss. You should expect to lose both muscle and fat when losing weight, but that's a very high ratio. With weight lifti

Welllll, women are saying a lot of men don't do this. They are basically bums. Our great crisis is the growing number of bum men. And rather than work on being not bums, they sit around and complain online and stew.

What kind of bum doesn't take care of your kids? That's no independence. That's a dereliction of duty. Pure incel talk. Pure loser talk. Who wants to go through life being a loser?

I don't know why you assumed they weren't his kids. The article implied they were. It is unclear, but there is no evidence that they aren't his and certainly no evidence that her kids all have different fathers. This is incel

Plenty of men get joint custody, and in many jurisdictions, this is the default. The law cannot help it that there are so many bum men. This article is about that. Whether or not low expectations are the reason remains to be seen, but there

You aren’t escaping life without pain. I torn my quad last year, and then one of my kids did a butt stomp right on that knee joint as I was lying on the ground. Any minor residual vasectomy pain is the least of my concerns.

Yes. I had pain for a while. Mine was not a quick recovery, and I now sleep with a body pillow between my knees (although my back and hips like this). I do a lot of cycling, so I am sure that is part of the issue. Overall, I would recommend

It's difficult and expensive, and my wife and I have no issues conceiving. Why make it even more competitive for people who can't conceive?

A lot of men, particularly less educated men, have bizarre beliefs that vasectomies harm sexual performance or make them less of men. I saw the other day a person asking on the biohacking Reddit if a vasectomy would harm testosterone levels

I got mine done at 37, after having two kids, and they still asked me if I was sure. I can see why you'd be hesitant to do it on a 22-year-old. If you asked me at 22, I'd probably say I don't want kids. But I completely chang

All of our serious decks are produced in Figma. Slides and PowerPoint can't make a good enough looking presentation. Internal stuff, quick stuff to show clients, whatever, use Slides, but for trying to win new accounts, we use Figma.

This is way bigger than trade policies. Intel was the world leader in chip-making until fairly recently. Steve Jobs wanted them to build the iPhone chips because they were a generation or two ahead of any other fab in the world. Today, Inte

If you don't reinvest enough money in your company, eventually, the market moves you by. How many people on here still use Basecamp? I suspect a lot less than ten years ago. I'm at a startup, and we had to select project managemen

If you keep losing customers, market share, and mind share, eventually, you won't have a company. Basecamp went from being an industry-leading product to pretty much something that legacy customers too afraid to switch are still using.

If 37Signals invested more money in their products, wouldn't they be doing a lot better than they are? Basecamp is hardly talked about anymore. I don't know anyone who still uses it. They sunsetted a bunch of their other products.

The people at Levels, who do continuous glucose monitoring, say that oatmeal is one of the worst offenders. You really need to spike your oatmeal with fats, protein, and fiber. I regularly eat steel-cut oats for breakfast. My go-to is steel
