Nice to see something simple and useful, I am so tired of Azure/Jira's buggy over complicated platforms

Healing back pain - by Dr. John Sarno.

Yes - unless you have to wake up to pee I guess. Casein is one of the slowest absorbed proteins so it releases over 6 hours in most cases. I think soy beans is probably the same since its mixed in with fiber. If you compare it to whey isolate thats absorbed after 1. This doesn’t have the same effect.

I had sciatica for years and inflation in my hips so bad I could barely walk 500 meters while in college. Basically only kept going by iboprufen, naproxen and paracetamol. I tried everything. Acupuncture/LSD/ultra sound/kiro/physio/yoga had mri’s/xrays/you name it I had dr. Sarno’s healing back pain for 2 years on my shelf before I took a holiday and read the whole thing in one go. Fell asleep for 4 hours and woke up pain free for the first time in 7 years. Started to come back a few times but I would just read the book again and go for a run. Been smooth sailing for 10 years now.

Same - I also read a study saying 22% muscle synthesis increase with 40 grams of casein before bed and one saying protein before bed improved sleep quality.

I have a few mail servers and I have not had your problem but this could be because I use fail2ban, and have it drop requests above a certain threshold in a given time frame.

Depending on how these ddos attacks are getting sent this might help.

This is a very useful answer. My 2 cents: I would add hypnotherapy to the list of possible treatments - with focus on looking at your emotions. Trauma or unresolved emotional issues almost always result in “Body Armouring” or Psychosomatic symptoms of some kind. Depression and back pain go hand in hand. - I’m a psychologist and hypnotherapist.

I remember reading that this was considered, but that there was a significant concern it would lead to passengers spending more time trying to break in to the lockers to get their bags. So it was abandoned.

I'm guessing they are talking about the whale being a weapon, and Russia has admitted to training beluga's.

>a 2017 report by TV Zvezda, a station owned by the defence ministry, revealed that the Russian navy has again been training beluga whales, seals and bottlenose dolphins for military purposes in polar waters. In the past three years, president Vladimir Putin has reopened three former Soviet military bases along its vast Arctic coastline.

>The recent research and training was done by Murmansk Sea Biology Research Institute in northern Russia on behalf of the navy to see if beluga whales could be used to “guard entrances to naval bases’” in arctic regions, “assist deepwater divers and if necessary kill any strangers who enter their territory”.

I completely agree with this.

I think the important thing is to focus on the long term. Pacing yourself.

My ability to focus used to be terrible. But as with a lot of things, what you practise you get better at. Meditation can help you practise this, and also give you a reset when you're running low on focus.

I recommend being preemptive, and getting in mental shape, getting in shape, and not over extending yourself.

I can easily focus for 2-3 hours, but then I will be trashed, instead I pace myself and work for 45 minutes then enforce a 15 minute meditation session. If I'm feeling burnt out, I might go outside or take a longer meditation session.

My meditation style is: I focus on moving my attention back to my breath every time it wanders off, while listening to white noise.
