Specifically the state likes to say "We need access to encryption private keys because of terrorists or to save the kids. If you don't have anything to hide, there's no reason you'd oppose this". [0] So if a lot of

Might be worth going to bed early (~10pm) and getting up at 5.00am to work on your bootstrapped company. The trip is to not look at your phone at doom-scroll sites (which will burn your time), but start coding (or whatever was planned the p

Not sure if ftp is the most ideal way. That's how it was done in the old days and usually got screwed up with multiple people. If you have a server with ssh access, you can set up a 'bare' git repo (obviously you should back

The problem is that the selection of vegetarian options is usually quite crap for regular restaurants. I'm obviously not talking about veg/vegan or Indian places. Generally irrespective of price, vegetarians only get 1 or 2 option

What about fitbit trackers? [0]. I picked up a 'Charge' recently and it works well. Yeah, they are probably a bit more expensive than when you got the Charge2. [0] https://www.fitbit.com/global/us/product

Haah. I wonder how much healthier we'd be, if we removed video streaming services, video games and phones.

>Step 1: Assume people have the time, energy, and discipline to introduce exercise into their daily lives" is not going to work. It really is that simple - that's not how any healthy society works. I'm struggling to respon

I thought when the Nintendo Wii came out, it had the right idea with all those sports (boxing, tennis etc) games (needed that motion controller) I remember sweating, so I guess it was good. Anything like that anymore?

You could also drive to a park and walk around for 45 minutes, or even better run. A dog helps with this.

I have a feeling you're probably right about stress and HT. I strongly believe everyone needs to lift weights. For me it helps with stress. It's a great way to funnel all the days work BS out of your body. I feel super energized a

There's really no reason to take the car for a 15 minute (1 mile walk there, 1 mile back). There's ways to introduce exercise even if you have to drive. At the grocery store, I see drivers drop people right at the entrance. How ab

I get funny looks when I go walk (say a 90min) the dog, without my phone (so no podcasts/music). I find it really helps me solve tech problems. I think my brain is always trying to tell me what to do, if I just STFU for a bit. Also I f
