bohrbohra··on Exercise intensity is associated with cardiometabolic health
I was in this same boat. I just walk about 25k steps a day and lift weights.

Didn't really have a form of cardio i liked. I could never be consistent with running. I settled on this combination with stairclimbing and farmers carries.

Same. I found that picking up a 28-kg kettlebell and climbing up a 20-storey building within 6 mins (switching up hands every couple of floors) is an awesome "functional" exercise.

Hits cardio, grip strength and unilateral stability stuff.

bohrbohra··on What happened to Transmeta, the last big dotcom IPO
All I know about Transmeta is that Linus Torvalds moved over from Finland to the USA to work at this startup.

Other than that, it seems to have sunk without a trace.

You're right. "I have a doubt" means "I have a question".

We used to have "doubt-solving sessions" in coaching centres. Everytime one of the students would ask "Sir, I have a doubt" I would always snigger within that the student was insinuating something sinister or nefarious about the instructor's character. I always found it hilarious.

But that's just how English is used in India.

> relatively nutrition-less water

That's what I was thinking. Why would boiled water kept hermetically sealed in a glass bottle for a year go bad ?

> Chevron is, as you know, an enormous fossil fuel corp. The simplest and best method of improving the environment would be simply to shut down their oil and gas operations. The irony is almost overwhelming.

Yea, but that would just make some other player take their place. The game-theoretic choice seems to be to keep doing what they are doing, while allocating some of that dirty money towards research in green tech.
