  • While it's probably true that there are people who might struggle with porn, there are plenty of people who struggle with addictions of all kinds - alcohol, gambling, opiates, etc.

    But there are certainly valid questions that come up with stuff like this:

    • Is the government's place to enforce a mandatory 18yr age requirement to view porn?
    • If so, what kinds of unintended ramifications are possible from imposing such a requirement? I can think of quite a few, but I'm curious what others think.
    • Could it be argued that this is an attempt to legislate morality or impose censorship?

    I think that these are fair questions and perhaps the meat and potatoes of the issue lies a bit deeper than anyone's sole opinion on whether porn is "bad for you" or not.

  • Always call the closing attorney's office before initiating the wire transfer on closing day. Back when I closed, I called their office and did a read-back on the wire information they had sent to make sure it was genuine. Once that money is wired there's no take-backs

  • Hyundai and Kia car thefts fall sharply after software upgrade, study finds

  • Well I mean actuaries are like savants. Years ago in uni my calc III college prof was one. Amazingly sharp dude. Do I think insurance companies over-generalize their risk assessments? Yupp. Do insurance companies likely ignore their actuaries and set premiums to make outrageous profit? Probably.

    Disclosure: I hate insurance companies. Also that professor was super weird

  • Hyundai and Kia car thefts fall sharply after software upgrade, study finds

    Jump

  • It's funny that even though theft rates have plummeted since the mass software upgrade, premiums have stayed high. They have savant-level mathematicians (actuaries) evaluating risk and even with compelling data showing otherwise, they choose to keep labeling these cars high risk and continue to charge exorbitant premiums.

  • From Tesla's owners manual, referenced in the article:

    Immediately remove corrosive substances (such as grease, oil, tree resin, dead insects....

    I find it really funny that the folks at Tesla consider grease to be "corrosive".

  • Anyone running 5/3/1 variations?

    Jump

  • I know you asked this 3 months ago, but just wanted to give my two cents:

    I ran 5/3/1 for 6 years. I started at 27 and stopped it when I was 33. I saw huge gains with it and it was fun for a while. But it wasn't sustainable. Jim Wendler explicitly markets this program as one you can do forever. My experience completely contradicts this and your success with this program entirely depends on your age and quality of recovery. I would never recommend his program if you're not in your prime.

    After the spike in gains over the first two years, the constant push for PRs absolutely burned me out and left me bored. And then I ended up getting seriously hurt in a number of different ways. My body just couldn't take it anymore. I had to get shoulder surgery. Then I had to PT my knees. Then finally I fucked up my back in a way that won't ever fully recover.

    I spent a year going barely 1x/WK because I was so tired of the program and the intensity constantly aggravated old injuries. I finally got 100% back to the gym regularly, but I did so by throwing that 5/3/1 book away.

    I just want to look good naked. The old school thinking was that hypertrophy was hugely dependent on lifting low volume, heavy weight. More recent studies contradict this and show that high volume lower weight can have the same effect. So that's what I've chosen to do, my program focuses on this, I'm getting good gains in mass and I'm finally not leaving the gym in pain anymore.

    I guess what I'm saying is, use 5/3/1 and all variants at your own risk. It might be perfect for you depending on your goals & age, but consider a different approach to lifting if you want this to be a hobby you'll enjoy for many years to come.
