Realistically, people aren’t going to attain their goals trying to do a Twinkie CICO diet though, even though it might be theoretically possible.
I wish people would just move on from posting about CICO already, it’s long since outlived its usefulness as a concept
The best form of exercise for you is the form that you actually do consistently week after week. If this means working out at home, then that’s fine. Given that you’re not trying to break any records, this might just be fine for you.
I’ve done many different forms of working throughout the years, one of which was to work out at home/local outdoor gym. I did this because there were no gyms at what I considered to be a reasonable distance from home, and I considered that to be too much of an impediment to actually get the work done consistently.
I did get stronger from it, and used it as a part of losing weight, which I wanted on account of being overweight at that time.
I’ve since stopped doing that routine and moved to lifting weights at a gym, which I considered attainable since I moved to a place with gyms very close by. I did this because working out at home had basically reached a plateau as far as strength was concerned - lifting weights at a gym will get you stronger at a faster pace.
I think checking out the stuff that Hybrid Calisthenics does could be worthwhile for you. Do some stuff at home for now if that feels better for you, and then evaluate later on if it keeps working for you.
By the power of podcasts, I have become equipped to handle the Sisyphean daily tasks. I used to dread them, now I don’t mind them at all.
As others mentioned it’s diminishing returns, but there’s still a lot of good innovation going on in the codec space. As an example - the reduction in the amount of space required for h265 compared to h264 is staggering. Codecs are a special form of black magic.
Honestly, just never use link shorteners. QR codes have basically completely killed their use-case, and various sharing tools take care of what little QR codes do not.
Ok so they were apparently in Greek but not from Greece. Source: https://news.unl.edu/article-2
Is this fake?
For context, this is the guy who figured out how to see what’s written on some ancient Greek Scrolls without destroying them. It seems slightly far-fetched that he wouldn’t know better.
Just make it a tax at that point, honestly.
Sweden did something similar for a long time, making every owner of a TV pay a license fee. Then the enforcing body tried to reclassify all computers as TVs, including smartphones, since these could technically access the online streaming version of the state-owned media. A ridiculous interpretation that was ultimately struck down in court.
All this did was cause unnecessary friction, and kept a bunch of really useless people on payroll to collect this fee.
We resolved it in the end by just making it a tax instead, and it’s never been better. Rest in piss, Radiotjänst, nobody ever liked you
While I broadly agree with your sentiment,
You can compile Swift on Windows and Linux. There are other tools required to build macOS and iOS-apps bundled with XCode that prevents building those on other platforms, but Swift itself is available standalone.
