There is an incredible amount of evidence for creatine being beneficial for making you stronger/muscle growth. Which is probably the primary reason it's sold. So it's not as if it's not studied or there are no known effects of supplements.
It's not very comprehensive at all, the regions I know well in France are missing almost all of the actual castles. The site lists 180ish castles in France, when it's estimated there are 45,000 castles + chateaus in reality. Of course this depends on your exact definition of castle.
I wonder if it's only scraping english language Wikipedia articles?
Authorized/unauthorized simply describes whether the subject works with the author or not. It's just the common terminology for it.
Lots of overuse injuries in calisthenics:
Even quite a bit cheaper than that, I buy 1000g of creatine for $30 USD, which is 15 cents per 5g serving. I think it's a no-brainer for most people.
This article isn't PR for the Iranian regime, it highlights how unstable and non-business friendly the region is. If anything it's a warning...
Refusing to accept a culture of optics is tantamount to not understanding optics though. The reality is that if you work on any kind of product, optics do matter - the perception of something working is often just as important as it actually working.
The Galaxy S7 definitely had this feature.
The problem is, it was basically useless. The main use case for heart rate monitoring is continuously throughout the day/night, or during exercise. A watch is very good at this. An optical sensor on the back of your phone is not.
Periodically checking your heart rate by holding your phone in a specific way is not a useful feature for that many people.
Doesn't seem like it's that stable at all

"Still, if exposed to the high humidity present in some parts of the US (less common in Italy)"
Italy is basically a massive peninsula and some islands - it's quite humid! The humidity in Parma itself today is 65%, which is the same as Miami, Florida today and more than New Orleans. it's fall in Italy, and in Palermo it's 80% humidity, in Bergamo 84%, Bologna 83% etc.
"there is not, and never has been "a tragedy of the commons situation"
I kindly invite you to visit the kitchens of undergraduate house-shares. I think you may soon appreciate there are "tragedy of the commons" situations happening all the time :)
The piratical benefit may be particle cannons? Yarrgh!
Certainly not a sustainable amount if every class is giving a similar workload.
Crime and Punishment alone is over 500 pages.
With 5 classes assigning a book each, that's 2500 pages a week, or 357 pages every single day.
I certainly did not read that much during my undergrad nor my master's degree.
Perhaps the expectations on students are a bit unreasonable?
"Twenty years ago, Dames’s classes had no problem engaging in sophisticated discussions of Pride and Prejudice one week and Crime and Punishment the next."
Reading Crime and Punishment alone is estimated to take about 11-12 hours at 300WPM. Then consider your average student is taking 4 or 5 classes per semester? If they all assigned that much reading, that would be 60 hours a week of just reading, not even including time to process what's being read, or write assignments, revise etc.
No, I've had this happen multiple times using various bluetooth headphones with my Google Pixel 8. So it's definitely happening on Android as well.
All professionals I've ever talked to seem to agree that videos are a terrible form of reference information
It really depends. For most software things, I'd prefer to have written documentation. If it's purely for reference, then yes I agree text is better.
For working on my bicycle or car, often I like watching videos because you pick up on little ways the pros make the jobs easier - for example, the steps might do a poor job of describing the angle and movement of tyre levers, but it's easily understood via video (just an example).
As a result, it can be a much richer experience when you are building skills as opposed to just following a checklist.
Ah yes, the two nationalities, Taiwanese and American.
Horizon Europe funds many of the research projects my organisation works on, such as cancer research, COVID-19 and general microbiology research...
home cinema is pretty much purely an enthusiast thing these days (the casual user won't plug anything into their smart TV)
Except a gaming console, a laptop, a roku, apple TV...
Every single person I know has some external media source plugged into their TV, even my tech illiterate mother.
What do you mean? Even in the linked article, the food critics consistently pointed out that restaurants make food very rich so that it's more appealing. And how they suffered from eating so much rich food.
There is "yestereve" but it's archaic and never used. Despite not being used, totally understandable to English speakers.
Never played Blood and Magic, but it sounds like map control would be a lot less important. Most RTS games are all about expanding and controlling resources as fast as possible, so you can out produce your opponent.
Turtling might be more viable in this game?
Sorry but I'm fairly confident it's spam - they just want you to look at their startup/substack links. That's why they included the links at all.
The compliment is a "foot in the door" so you don't immediately dismiss the email, and keep reading until the links.
I get the same type of comments on all my blog posts. Here's 2 examples directly from my blog:
"Awesome post! Keep up the great work! " (+ a link to their SEO service)
"Nice website, love the theme! Can I use it?" (+ a link to their WP service).
From the health perspective I agree, but there's a pretty clear reason to tax the second person more, since they have a car: more emissions, road use, infrastructure costs etc.
I'm surprised it took Google this long to come to this conclusion, there are so many UX downsides to infinite scroll, especially for SERPs.
Heel strike - heel lands first
Midfoot strike - heel and ball land same time
Forefoot strike - ball of foot lands first
I use Figma every single day for work, and have virtually no performance issues, even with projects with 100s of frames.
I just tried using the marker in Figjam, and it works perfectly fine for me. I think you may be running into an incompatibility between your browser or settings and Figma.
As for the infinite canvas, this is very handy as a designer, it makes it much easier to work across multiple frames at once, such as quickly zooming out to look at the flow or building a prototype, all the while zooming in to fix issues.
Paper tickets are anytime tickets, so charge a premium for the extra flexibility. Whereas the contactless payments take into account discounted off-peak time periods, calculated exactly based on your entry and exit times.
Basically they are different classes of tickets, it's not really to do with the paper.
If anything, MKBHD is minimizing harm, by discouraging people from wasting their money on a very poor product.
How does one rationalize such wind-falls.
By accepting that life isn't fair, and capitalism certainly isn't fair either. Working hard, and doing everything right, does not guarantee success. And when someone does have success, it's not necessarily to do with their actions.
It can't really be rationalized. All you can do is maximize your chances of living the best life you can.
