My favorite part is when he tells them don’t let people tell you the future is decided and then proceeds to tell them the future has already been decide and AI is a big part of it.

I am SO glad he's taking that Reagan quote on directly. One of the more harmful lines and philosophies in US politics. Government is us. It is what we the people choose to do with our collective resources. It can be a force for good if we want it to be.

Fun fact: Listening to a real rich person talk for less than a minute increases the average person's agreement with the statement "Eat the rich!" five-fold.

I am severely in love with how the trump/musk manly-man fans are trying this “people aren’t used to seeing how masculine men argue” thing. yes bros that’s right. being a messy bitch online, that’s real alpha behavior. if Achilles were alive today he’d be in Hector’s mentions on social fucking media

I'm bummed that AllTrails is adding an AI angle as well now. Having AllTrailsGPT telling people what trails are good (instead of using critical thinking) worries me since AI Guiding People Through the Backcountry sounds like the setup for the next "Google Maps Leads Someone Off Bridge" Headline 🙃

If you stop looking at the Robovan pictures and just repeat “A bus, but it can only carry 20 passengers” over and over again, eventually you start to understand the intellectual bankruptcy of not just Musk but most of Silicon Valley.

Oh also, be aware of the side-effects. For some, it results in GI effects at the beginning. It will lead to weight gain as you fill up your creatine stores (it's just water weight, but it will stay with you as long as you're on the creatine) Other than that, it's pretty straight-forward

So basically since you can push a bit harder, you can then proceed to put on more muscle (in theory). Your body has a finite capacity for storing creatine in your muscle cells, so taking the supplement really just helps you keep those levels as high as possible. 2/

Chris Cummings @crankynetmaam.cummings.tech · 13/09/2024

Yeah, some people get fancy with cycling it on and off, and all of that, but at the end of the day, it makes negligible gains, so I just do it daily. The important thing IMO to understand about creatine is that it doesn't make you stronger, it simply gives you a bit more energy to push harder. 1/

Chris Cummings @crankynetmaam.cummings.tech · 13/09/2024

Hi, I do this! Generally anything over ~2.5g of creatine a day is a waste when you’re using it daily for a long time (more than a few weeks). I usually do about that much into a water bottle or shake. Timing doesn’t matter when you take it, just generally do it daily.
