In case anyone is like "oh interesting, didn't know that" then keeps scrolling: it's not true.

Gut bacteria seem to cause and cure everything these days.

Diastatic Malt Powder is magic. I really need to pick some up.

I didn't like Jira before I used everything else. Now I like Jira.

From what I've seen it means the game used to be good (or had good potential), then the developers messed things up.

Honestly a great recruiting stunt.

This. There's a huge different between AI's shallow transliteration and an actual translation that respects the culture and context.

If you want weird, look at the Athanasian Creed. Here's a snippet:

"... For there is one Person of the Father; another of the Son; and another of the Holy Ghost.But the Godhead of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, is all one; the Glory equal, the Majesty coeternal.Such as the Father is; such is the Son; and such is the Holy Ghost.The Father uncreated; the Son uncreated; and the Holy Ghost uncreated.The Father infinite; the Son infinite; and the Holy Ghost infinite.The Father eternal; the Son eternal; and the Holy Ghost eternal.And yet they are not three eternals; but one eternal.As also there are not three uncreated; nor three infinites, but one uncreated; and one infinite.So likewise the Father..." and it goes on and on and on like this, never actually saying what they are. It's a headache to get through.

Topical prescription of Finasteride and Minoxidil (they come in the same bottle) nightly. Just enough drops for good scalp coverage. Derma roller weekly. That's it.

I've done endless hours of research through studies and whatever else I could find, as well as visits to dermatologists. The following four things reversed my hair loss:

  • Finasteride (this is the biggest one). I take it topically, but you can take it orally too. Prevents balding from getting worse.
  • Minoxidil
  • Derma Roller, 1.5mm. "Wounding". This may be placebo, but it hasn't made things worse.
  • Seeing a good dermatologist to get a proper diagnosis and proper prescriptions for the first two things.

In my work place we hired an intern who was pivoting careers and wanted to learn a new skill. The company was doing well, so we kept her on so long as she was trying. We patiently worked with her for years, but the skill NEVER clicked. She came from a robust background, so she was clearly capable, but we eventually figured out that she didn't have the talent for it. She eventually decided that career wasn't for her and left for another company - and in her new position she picked up on the different and required skill super quick. Our brains are elastic, sure, but they're also hardwired in all different ways.
