4x5 deadlifts @85 lbs., 12 pull-ups, 10 burpees. Gonna keep it light for safety!

I don't like the Rolling Stones at all, but this Mick Jagger pandemic song was pretty good.

I guess that's kind of a lot for a git comment.

I think I fixed a thing, but I don't really want to review the huge git diff, so I have to break until the evening to check it in.

5-mile run, 12 pull-ups.

10-4-4-4-4-12. I think deadlifts last week might possibly have made the burpees feel easier. I tried to do the pull-ups more explosively, unsure if I actually did. Why? I’m not sure. I haven’t done any combat sports in ten years and will probably never touch them again.

I figured out that the cause of a rather confounding bug could be solved by doing the exact opposite of something I said in a comment right above the problem line.

I said before that web server log referrer values were completely worthless, but I keep clicking on them only to be redirected to TraffiC BoOsT, etc. stuff. I gotta remember that it is all fake now!

Viking's Choice moved from Substack (the newsletter service, not the cool programmer) to Buttondown.

Apparently, Substack likes to cultivate an image of being respectful to all people, but not at the cost of opportunities to dominate markets.

First the why: Doyle says they left Substack because they were upset that Substack was publishing — and in some cases offering money upfront to — authors they say are “people who actively hate trans people and women, argue ceaselessly against our civil rights, and in many cases, have a public history of directly, viciously abusing trans people and/or cis women in their industry.”

This is very similar to the Joe Rogan and Alex Jones thing on Spotify.

There's a lot that was terrible about Reagan. I've never drawn a clean line between him and the subprime crash of 2008, though. I mostly think of terrible tax policy and corporatism when I think of him.

In this episode of Talking Politics, Adam Curtis frames what's commonly called neoliberalism as "management politics." He talks about it being practiced in China as well. You can't get people what they want, but you can manage their perception of things in order to keep things stable.

Reagan blatantly failed to get the lower and middle class more better wages and to reindustrialize it. (To "make America great again, so to speak.") So, his administration made it easier for people to borrow money to get all the things they want. And so they did, and they were mostly happy.

And of course, that had consequences, many of which did not land until after Reagan was dead.

One does not expect to find a leading consulting detective in a state of stupefaction. When Dr Watson enquires as to his flatmate’s drug of choice, Holmes replies that it is a seven per cent solution of cocaine. The doctor declines an invitation to partake, making clear that he considers it a health risk. However, Holmes tells him that he needs stimulants to stop him getting bored when he is not working.

The guy and I are almost done reading Hound of the Baskervilles, but I guess we won’t read The Sign of the Four next.

We got the word that they were giving one-shot vaccines to neighborhood residents at a nearby church. So I went, and then I got the additional word that they were only for people with at least one medical condition or an age over 54.

I asked the guy if he remembered the song he used to sing about fruit salad, and he said, “Don’t get me into the past!”

Growing pains in children

A 6 year-old boy is awakened at 02:00 AM, screaming of painful legs. His parents appreciate severe pain, but do not see anything wrong with his legs. They rub his legs and give him acetaminophen and he returns to sleep with pain resolution within 30 minutes. In the morning he is running about as if nothing occurred at night. The following week he has a similar episode. This causes significant anxiety in the family, and they immediately visit the primary physician.

Even though they conclude there's nothing that can really be done about it, I'm really glad the government funded and publish this research this, which lets people know it's harmless. It really cuts down on anxiety about what the problem might be and the meta-problem of possibly getting an MRI.

Thanks to WebMD, et al flooding the web with garbage, a search about a medical issue rarely yields something reliable. Getting more research out there could help a lot with this.
