This is paid but also very good. https://uphillathlete.com/product/at-home-strength-training-...

The main thing 90% of people will benefit from is learning to activate their glutes, then strengthening their glutes. Clamshells are a great place to start.

A lot of people hurt their knees because their glutes don’t activate and are weak from sitting all day. This forces them to become quad dominate, which puts more strain on the knees.

I want to build some other browser based audio/synth tools. I'll have dig into Tone.js more for one of those, thanks. I'm re-learning to code with these projects, but the goal is to build a multiplayer web-based modular synth.

It is, but bear with me as I'm just re-learning to code so it's a bit of a mess.

A few years ago a friend and I listened to one album a week from r/hiphopheads' Essential Albums List. It got me thinking about having an "Album club" like a book club. Each week the club's playlist would get updated with a new album or songs to listen to that week.

I may use this as some inspiration to make that.

I also built a small app to learn my piano chords. You can play along with a MIDI keyboard. https://www.learnyourchords.com/

I recently moved from the western US to the east. The public/opens lands are what I miss the most. I don't think many people out east even realize what public land is, how much there is, and how great it is. But this map really displays it.

Side note: What's up with Alberta? Same with northwestern North Dakota? I'm guess this is mining and/or oil operations?

I delete all app that I waste time in, but keep one that are useful. (I won't blow two hours scrolling Lyft, and it's very helpful sometimes) I then set screentime permissions to block websites I don't want to use (like reddit), and prevent app downloads. I set a screentime password and give it to my partner.

This way I get all the "benefits" of a smartphone with none of the scrolling and time wasting. It's also very easy to switch it back to a full smartphone, get the password from my partner and turn off screentime. I'll do this when I travel internationally for work.

Hope this setup helps some others.

The chapters are structured so you are building 2 projects at once. One where you follow along with the chapter material with example code and explanations. And a second in the exercises.

I really like it because it introduces the concepts in the context of a project, but you can't get stuck because the code is there too. Then you need to really apply it in the exercises on your own project, without the example code.

If you have a MIDI keyboard you can play along as it prompts you with chords, or if not you can use it like chord flashcards.

They seem to be in obvious, high traffic areas. The one mentioned in the video is a short hike from the Utah capitol building. If you hike at all and live in salt lake, this is where you go. Especially in the winter. It seems like they were asking to be found.

It’s certainly less in the winter, but in the summer hundreds of people would hike or bike past this everyday.

Turns out, about half the copy we are using on the site is coming from ChatGPT. I came up with a few clever lines, but ChatGPT came up with more and faster. It produced some lines my partner and I legitimately laughed out loud at.

My copywriting skills are pretty bad. Even if ChatGPT's are "sort of basic", it's better than me. ChatGPT isn't replacing copywriters, but it's making the work they do much more accessible to people who aren't copywriters.

It felt like ~10 years ago the conversation was that "AI will do the tedious boring work and make more time to do the creative work". What actually seems to be happening is that the creative work is slowly being eaten by AI and giving it to the people who aren't good at that flavor of creative work.

Writing a few clever lines of copy for a indie puzzle company isn't the most creative work of all time, but it is still creative work. And it was done by AI. And it was done better than I could.

A year ago it seems inconceivable that two of the biggest social networks (fb, twitter) would be on their way out. It seemed like such a big ship with a lot of momentum, just chugging along. Things have changed so much since then, what a strange turn of events.
