A "Russian Asset" yet Putin invaded Crimea when Obama was president. Also invaded Ukraine when Biden was president. I wonder what the pattern is.

League is extremely fun and addicting. Its a huge dopamine kick. When I play, I stay hooked for hours on end and have to stop myself.

When I code, I'm mostly just thinking hard and not very happy. The best part is the "aha" moment, and the huge dopamine kick of solving the programming/debugging problem. It is also NOT addicting.

These are two completely different things. I'm not sure why you're so determined to compare the two. They are insanely different.

He takes Adderall my dude. I'm a developer and I use absolutely no cognitive enhancers. If I took Adderall I would be able to code for 20 hours straight. I took a small dose back in college and that stuff is insanely good for long hours at anything.

Also, I'm speculating here, but I think he is on Testosterone Replacement Therapy, which also has insane energy, mood and cognitive enhancements.

Lastly he takes a ton of stimulants.

I don't for a moment think he's working purely off "natural" energy.

Biden directly closed the Keystone XL pipeline after Trump had us at energy independence. Also, he and his democratic party pushed and passed the biggest spending bills in our nations history. You don't think that directly affects inflation and gas prices?

You must be living under a rock, or willfully blind.

We replaced a president that made mean tweets with one that has directly affected our lives via increased inflation and gas prices, to name a few. Crazy times.

Its really not very complex, but its hard. lift weights 5-6 times a week. And be consistent. Consistency is everything.

After about 6 months you'll see incredible results. Keep going.

its crazy how high in the list anti antidepressants are. In my case, I was diagnosed with hypogonadism. A simple prescription of testosterone cured my depression.

Makes me think how often people have been prescribed antidepressants when it could really be a hormonal problem.

Someone needs to write a book "C++ The Good Parts", similar to Douglas Crockford's "Javascript the good parts".

C++ is insanely bloated and complex. If there is a book distilling the best and cleanest parts of the language, I might give it another look. Haven't considered it in earnest since College.
