  • Nah, the last few high scoring CVEs curl got were really niche buffer overflows or potential security issues.
    He's been very vocal about this. Yeah it's a bug, and usually an easy fix, but they scored like 8 or 9 on CVSS. Which is disproportionate compared to a lot of other 8s or 9s.
    I can understand the frustration there.

  • I didn't even start talking about that, but yeah, at least to me, form is paramount over weight/complexity. At least until you have a strong enough foundation. Then you can take some liberty to strengthen in unusual moves.

    Mobility and range of motion are also something to work on, it makes many things easier to do in your daily life.
    But that's something for another long post I guess !

  • Being sore doesn't mean that muscle is being built, that's a misconception, it's actually muscle being damaged.

    Soreness is micro-lesions in your muscles, and what builds them stronger is actually the rest following a workout. Because that's when the body goes around to repair these lesions and builds stronger bonds within the muscle.

    What builds muscle is resistance, nutrition and rest, the latter two being the most important.

    You can't build muscle if you don't feed them right and give them time to recover.

    So, killing yourself at the gym 3/4 days in a row, focusing on the same muscle group is actually really counterproductive.
    Rotate your training focus with a split like push/pull/legs/core, or upper body/lower body/cardio, or whatever, as long as you enjoy it.

    Give yourself time, eat right (as right as you can, don't fall into the rice/chicken at every meal madness, balance is key), sleep a lot, take some rest days and deload weeks once in a while, and drink plenty of water.

    And most importantly, be kind with yourself, it's a marathon, not a sprint, you might struggle going to the gym some days, but showing up and doing less is better than not doing it at all.

  • I really like Camus' approach to these questions. Life is meaningless, the world is absurd, nothing matters in the end.
    So, basically, try to find your meaning in life and enjoy it while it lasts. Because as far as we know, it's our one shot at life and it's pretty much one and done.
