Why is this article showing up on New Year's Day like the flock of newbie gym customers attracted to the gym only to quit 30 days from now? Every year without fail.

Let's ignore this article for a moment.

Overall factors that REALLY matter building muscle: 1. Consistency - Working out each muscle group at least once a week....every week. 2. Diet - Making sure you are consuming enough protein in your diet, approximately 1gram/pound of body weight...or near it or even best you can. Total calories consumed a day should match any online calculator for your age and activity level. 3. Sleep! 4. Sleep! 5. Vary your workout - some weeks high reps low weight and some weeks low reps high weight. Why? Never let your body know what you're doing and shock it as best you can. Always try to exert yourself enough to be sore within 48 hours of a workout.

Now multiply this over a few years.

Stop reading these studies thinking there is some optimal way! It's just hard work over time.

BTW: In winter I bench press 350 pounds or 159KG. I run 10KM or 6.1 miles twice a week and increase it a little bit in summer. I pull my body in two different directions because I love both.

I designed my led system at home in the basement which is not as big but same principle. It all depends on: 1. Distance 2. Type of LED: W, RGB, RGBW, RGBWCCT 3. Brand of LED manufacturer 4. Number of LED per meter aka amperage draw 5. 24v verse 12v

If this is a loop, like a rectangle, you can inject from beginning and end since that is the same point, otherwise, you'll need power injected at some distance. For long distances you'll need to calculate the power loss to figure that out. I used quinled.info site to get all this information and decided upon an RGBW LED setup using 24 volts and injecting at beginning and end of rectangle. This was for 20 meters, fyi, not 50 meters. RGBWCCT was too much amperage draw over distance and this was my first time doing it. Learn how to solder because using the snap-on connectors suck...I am redoing those connectors by soldering b/c two have failed so far.

Genetically, I've dealt with myopia on the -2.x range most of my life till I had lasik around 20 years ago. However, now my eyes have diverged in the weirdest of ways. I have 20/20 in my right eye but can't read up close - due to being in my late 40's - and my left eye can read up close but I have around 20/80 for near-sightedness. I guess it's "good" I can handle any situation with one of the eyes but playing pool with depth perception sucks! Anyway, I have a new problem this article never mentioned. Floaters. My left eye is full of them and reading anything with these blobs blocking my vision is a game of moving my eye so it "shakes" things up so I can read where it was blocked. I have not found a therapy for it. Floaters is protein waste broken off in the eye and mine never settle to bottom of the eye. Don't take your vision for granted.

I have been trying to tackle this type of "Feature" but object detection and action detection seem to be a totally different problem. Use case: I want to "detect" when a car does not stop at a stop sign. I have researched this over youtube, reddit, etc and other than training it myself there are no models already out there, including YOLO. Can anybody offer advice on how to achieve this use case?

Then you have LG’s MLA with WOLED really competing with QD-OLED. Man, I just eat this stuff up! Bring on more affordable MicroLED, Samsung, like Apple is doing in its Vision Pro. I love competition.

What type of AI? AGI? Textual based AI? Computer vision AI? What kind of bubble - the kind that has happened before in the history of AI…a slow evolution of progress just like now with fits and bumps but always progressing over time. It will never fit a business or persons agenda but it will always get better.

I recently came to a fork in the road of being sick and tired of subconsciously picking up my iPhone for no good reason. I turned my colors to black and white. It has made a world of difference. I find it detestable in the best way. I also bought a CAT S22 flip phone and after I figure out how to remove the TMobile bloatware I’ll swap SIMs and try that. People look at me weird but feeling addicted is my answer for tolerating these changes. FYI S22 has Waze which is a requirement for me or some alternative.

I have received almost the exact same message, but not from Coinbase. I’ve never fallen for a scam, but I fell for this one. I was in a rush at work read the message, called the phone number and realized with all the background chatter it was a scam call center and hung up. I was so shocked I had fallen for it, I wrote my family a summary laughing at myself that even a tech guy who watches YouTube scam revenge videos can get fooled.

I have always been involved with lifting weights (4 times a week) and running 10km twice a week. This is pretty intense, I know, but I gravitate to it based on burning cortisol from anxiety and the calming effect it has afterwards. It didn’t stop a full blown two week anxiety episode six months ago but I added therapy and keeping a journal. This helps focus me but nothing is a cure..it’s just a lifestyle to find temporary balance.

Avoid plastic? Is that even a possibility nowadays?

Set it up using laptop and iphone...added VOD Spiderman, tried to play it, and it just sits here loading and never playing.

Why is this being downvoted? It's an opposing view and they are being honest. I ordered a Model X, getting it in two weeks, and am looking for a pickup truck to eventually move to after the Model X. I would not buy this, sorry. People like me will compare Rivian to CyberTruck and I think it's a natural comparison. We aren't going to compare traditional pickups, though, because people like me don't want an ICE pickup truck. With that said, why would I not buy a Rivian? The plan is to wait till they've produced it for a year, compare to current electric pickup market, take advantage of Federal Tax credit of Rivian and evaluate if it's worth it. I am the suburban guy, I am a Tesla buyer, and I pride myself on engineering + beautiful design. Tesla HAD that for all their vehicles, imo. Cybertruck is a niche vehicle, I wish it well, I grew up in the 80's so it is nostalgic but omg it makes me want to vomit. Sorry, I wanted to buy it, really did, but 80's design for cars, clothes, and hairstyles was a nightmare that I couldn't wake up from, kinda like the shirt that stopped halfway down your waist. I am not an 80's fan....born 1977.

I cut my monthly bill from $191 down to $79.99 Gigabit/Fios plus $40 for DirectvNow/AT&TTVNOWVIPASAPPLZ. Plus, I converted my mom, Comcast in this case...can't understand why anybody would settle for cable prices...hurts so bad. Well, I'm also the IT helpdesk of the family and get called A LOT more now that I'm expected to fix issues asap.
