Find a different form of exercise that you enjoy.

When you're in the impact zone, returning that way can be pretty unpleasant. But yeah - its the fun that compels you to keep going.

1) Almost all 7 billion humans on earth don't have a problem with not going outside. Just the Hacker News crowd. 2) I'm not assuming anything. Alaskans can snowmobile or dogsled. Stop making excuses and go outside. You will thank me for

Hackers are inside all the time. You're telling me 15 minutes on a treadmill beats 15 minutes outside for your well being?

Yes, only the opposite of what you suggest. You are in a state of permanent withdrawal right now. You feel like crap, way worse than you're supposed to, and you don't know it. Your body requires exercise and you aren't giving it what it n

I don't think data on this is available, just experience.

That is why I started surfing. Nothing motivates you to max your heart rate than another set coming that will put you through a spin cycle if you don't get back outside the impact zone before it arrives. It has to be a part of your life.

You have to do it regularly. :) It sucks at first.

Go outside.

Definitely going outside is required. The gym does not give you the same benefit, imo. Its definitely also about connecting with nature. Editing now to clarify, thanks!

Agree 100%. Also caffeine. Not doing anything, and getting pep from caffeine is like a recipe for a Paxil prescription.

Some other posts at www.datasyndrome.com are less fluffy on the same topic. The 3 founders one was written to suggest a 3rd founder to a startup. Data hackers tend to underestimate the importance of hustling and design.

Flagging an entire thread by clicking 'troll' would help. The up/down voting tends to promote trolling, as the first controversial cliche is the top comment, having spawned a deep threaded conversation with lots of emotions and voting. A di

Based on the title, was fully expecting top comment to chastise you for child labor. Deeply disappointed.

Yes. Aggressively. rjurney at linkedin.com Rubyists, javscript hackers, the data obsessed, information designers... all badly needed.

I have flagged this post as inappropriate. Who do you think you are, anyway?

Is there a special flag for 'early cliches' ? Oh wait, thats the behavior the system promotes. Hacker news has become a system highly adept at promoting the most obvious, most common kind of trolling... provided that it happens soon as the

I got hammered the day before my Moscow residency permit expired and changed the blue expiration date with purple pen. Smeared it a little. Problem solved. That made the next few months fairly exhilarating each time I was stopped by the mil

The key point is that you've done all your processing in batch, and you're only displaying the most prominent or interesting properties and links for each record. Hadoop/Pig/Python together are much more powerful than SQL if you don't have

I can help. Which bit wasn't clear? I was trying to explain the human interaction consequences of batch processing and NoSQL in presenting mined data in web applications. If you're not into any of those things, I could explain but... its a
