@valigo Scroll-wheel jumping in games got me in the habit of using a mouse this way too. I think it's pretty common, at least in fps games

@shiroakabanii Yeah, I got sick of it and once I was no longer using it for config files I had no reason to keep it so I just fully removed it from my config.

Ten years ago, I stopped using P99 and switched to P100, always. - it’s easier to calculate (just take the max) - it’s easier to understand (this is as bad as it gets, there’s nowhere to hide) - optimizing for P100 tends to optimize for all percentiles (especially over time)

Most developers know that avg latency is misleading and they should use percentiles instead. They also know that if 90tile response time is 200ms, then 10% of the requests had response times higher than 200ms. Well, the last sentence is false. Or rather, true in theory. The

@justalexoki gonna disagree on squats (back and zercher squats are great lifts). deadlifts are a lot of fun and feel powerful but I'm currently favoring single-arm and zercher deadlifts for muscle development with less CNS strain. (I like to balance optimal and fun for my lifts)

@NewAgeRetroNerd Just generally eat a good amount of meat and the rest falls into place. Multi-day (2-3) fasting is the easiest option for weight loss (stay active during fasts) and if you're a hard gainer don't be afraid of eating some extra ice cream/cake/cookies to get the extra calories in.

@NewAgeRetroNerd nutrition and sleep isn't too hard, just don't overthink it and you'll get it sorted quickly enough.

@0x45o I may be a weird exception, I've never enjoyed listening to music while I run. I just listen to my breath pattern, my footsteps and the birds in the trees. Once I've got a good rhythm going, my mind can wander and leave me with ideas to try when I get back to my PC.

@justalexoki nice thing about natty gains is they're hard to lose unless you completely stop training for an extended period of time, and even then they come back relatively quickly once you start training again

Writing your own Compiler is an unbeatable learning experience for anyone who wants to understand low level fundamentals. Not just for understanding how hardware and operating systems work, but also for security. The best way to start is to use what is an available and LLVM is

I've changed my mind about memory management when prototyping. I used to think that you should just wildly malloc everything when you prototyping until you figure out the overall flow and logic, so that memory management stays out of the way. But after forcing myself to use static arrays (or their variations like non-growing arenas) for everything - they are just better. They force you to actually think which things go together, and also they are a great way to gauge explicit limits of your program. Seems like I owe Joran Greef another apology!

Add some salt to your water and keep active on fasting days and you won't see any real muscle loss. Break the fast on the final day when you're done with all your work/exercise/chores with a small high-protein (I like a sirloin steak) meal.

You *can* do this. You can also just do a 2-3 day fast once a week and just generally try to eat a protein-focused diet on the other days without having to stress about how many calories you're consuming.

if you actually want to lose weight you need to meticulously count every single calorie in and out for two weeks. no cheating. count everything. every meal every drink every little snack. i promise you your whole world will change forever
