"Public health recommendations promoting physical activity should incorporate advice to avoid periods of sedentary behaviour." How do we interpret and apply information like this? Many people work in front a computer these days so

I mean everyone hates homework, but I was a straight A student all throughout gradeschool. I did what I was told, but in college I learned that the professors aren't always doing what is in your best interest. I think it really depends

"Athletic departments are self-funded by donations, TV rights, ticket sales, and merchandise, and they take no money that would otherwise be allocated to academics" That is absolutely not true. At least $300 a semester of my tuiti

If you've efficient you shouldn't try to keep up the same hours. That's just multiplying the work you're doing by your increase in efficiency. If you work 5x as fast as everyone else, but work the same hours, you're

Work doesn't have to mean your fulltime job. Work can mean a side project that you're passionate about, or a side business. When is being more efficient at anything a bad idea? If you can get your day job done in 2 hours vs 8, may

Get out of that toxic relationship if it's not what you want (which it sounds like it isn't). Replace that relationship with a social life that you enjoy, friends that care about you, and be around people that actually make you ha

Holy crap you need to get out of there. I think literally any job can be better than that one. There is so much out there, just try hard and take the leap. I hope you find something soon. Look outside your area for jobs that pay for relocat

Exactly the same experience for me! Conversation at my last job felt fake and forced, and everyone knew it. I don't know how my coworkers still work there. Nobody else left but me. Are people just blind to their own suffering? What is

Well that does suck. I had the opposite experience with Waterfall and Agile. My previous job (Waterfall) used such a heavy process that I was coding 10% of the time. Which is what I was hired to do. I'm a software engineer. Coding 10%

I used to work in a place where I was surrounded by these "normies" for a lack of a better term. I had absolutely nothing in common with any of my coworkers. Maybe one of them because we both enjoyed expensive coffee, but that was

Well I gotta say, I've worked in Waterfall and now Agile and I couldn't even explain how much better it is. I feel like I can actually do my job now instead of worrying every day about process. You won't know how much better

I'm 3 years into my career and I can tell you I felt exactly the same way. A few things: - You don't need to buy a house outright, get a loan. The only big cost is just the downpayment (5-20% of the price) - There are no shortage

Are you trying to justify arguing that they're not actually at a high stress level? That doesn't seem very nice. 3.5 and 4.5 are perfectly within 1 to 5 so I'm not sure what you're getting at here.

I feel exactly the same way. I stopped using social media and reading the news a few months ago and I've never been happier in my adult life. It's shocking how much regular reading of negative news can impact your emotional health

The default text and settings didn't do anything, so I'm not exactly sure what I should be expecting from this site. Did this work for anyone else? Edit: I can't get it to spit out anything no matter what I do.

I've tried mindfulness and melatonin before. Definitely took melatonin long enough to get the side effects. I'll try to get back into mindfulness but it was a difficult habit to form. Thanks for the suggestion, I'll definitel

That salary price is nowhere near the minimum wage in the US. $45,000 is around $21.63/hr. Although most places pay more than minimum wage, the current federal minimum wage is $7.25/hr. Also, you'll be hard pressed to find a

I used this to quit Facebook. It's an almost Pavlovian trick. You start to associate your habit with a negative connotation because you know that a short workout will follow.

Very common in the US unfortunately. And even if it's not explicitly prohibited, it's common courtesy to never discuss your wages at work. It has just become part of the culture.

I tried it years ago, but I think I had too little experience to understand the use case back then. I hadn't ever done any functional programming at that point so it kind of went over my head. I still hate Haskell. But maybe I would li
