damn, sorry friend. Must be terrifying to feel your body essentially betraying you.

I mean if something doesn't ever work in real life then its not good. Intentions aside.

I have never seen Agile used correctly in practice. Its just mini waterfall with additional annoying ceremonies lumped on top.

Question to the OP or anyone else that has experienced something similar. Have you tried grey area or Peptide space medications like Dihexa, P-21, Semax, etc to see if there are any benefits there? Very much self experimentation but they do

Such an odd reply. I say people would benefit from working out and your response is simply excuses? "are you going to finance that?" I pay $18 a month for my gym membership. "are you going to make sure other people at the gym

I'm pretty good without friends. I'm sure it could be helpful but I don't see any negatives currently from not having them. Been 20 years and I've gotten used to it. I completely understand that for other people this may

sure but if we always put things off because its hard or stressful then we will never make any progress. People are free to put barriers in front of everything or they can just go ahead and do it. Its your life, and your responsibility

Most people would really benefit from going to the gym. I'm not trying to downplay serious mental illness as its absolutely real. For many though just going to the gym several times a week or another form of serious physical exertion c

I had the same thought. Some of you have 5+ close friends? and before you had 2 - 3? Where are you finding these people :) I don't think I have had an IRL friend let alone a close one for 20+ years. So since my mid 20's Happy for

Been working with Claude Code lately and been pretty impressed. If this works as well could be a nice add on. Its probably a smart market to enter as Excel is essentially everywhere. Just like Claude Code allows 1 dev to potentially do the

I think you have hit on the fundamental reason for the rise of Trump and MAGA. There is no where else to go. I am going to try and present this in a way that is politically neutral but still captures the reason. I will probably fail. For a

This is actually a good thought experiment. In your example, democracy is actually fully working. The people though are voting to override the law (essentially something akin to jury nullification on a massive scale) and the prosecutor is b

Respectfully your thought experiment is meaningless as the president already has the power of pardon. See Joe Biden’s pardon of his son. Tariffs are due to be deliberated on during this session by the supreme court and as such checks and ba

I would argue it is working. The democratically elected congress just agrees with what he is doing. Whether they agree due to genuine belief or fear of him calling them out, doesn't really matter. We should be electing people that have

The executive could be stopped at any time by the courts or congress. But the democratically elected congress chooses not to. So the majority that was elected are doing what they think is right. That's how our US democracy works. Same

The voters keep voting for them. That is democracy. The people elect these same people over and over again. We get what we vote for.

Which is awesome for the dems then correct? Reps will lose seats and then the Dems will have the house and enforce whatever checks and balances they choose. If the reps win then the people have spoken and current actions continue.

Lots of people seem to think Trump is some sort of king or going outside the law. Fact is he was democratically elected and working within the system of checks and balances established by our founders. Congress can stop him from doing thing

This is an excellent argument against the British style request for a state level back door to encrypted data. It will be exploited and it will likely be quite some time until they learn of the exploit and even longer if ever until we do.

I'm on 200 mg of testosterone. Perhaps a tad over TRT for some but really in the ballpark. We can call it TRT++ to avoid argument :). My heart is fine, pulse is perfect. BP is perfect. I get blood work done every 4 months. The thing th

Its a standard ARB BP medication, not a witches potion. How do I know it worked? I test my BP at the same time every day.

Overall I agree with you but I think its an individual by individual basis. For me it started when I asked my doctor for a glp1 prescription a year ago. She said no and said I would need to see another doctor for that in the same medical sy

by wonderwonder 1y ago
Correct. Most of them just charge a nominal fee to have a in house doctor rubber stamp a prescription for you. There is of course a limit, I can get blood pressure or cholesterol meds but not something like Adderal

The UK has gone full thought control. They have also gone full immigration. Going to be a very different place in 10 years.
