    Icing injuries no longer recommended

    HEALTH 
    Multiple books that I've been reading plainly state that icing an injury such as a sprained ankle is now considered a bad idea --- that it delays healing and in nearly every case provides no tangible benefit other than pain relief (at the cost of delayed healing). Apparently, even the inventor...

    My reading list about exercise/sports and the mindset required for it

    HEALTH 
    Here are some real gems. All of those are filled with specific, actionable ideas. Thomas Kurz. "Stretching Scientifically." Extremely solid information from this Eastern-European coach and author. If you want to kick very high, this book will teach you how. It did teach me. You can also...

    3-step diet idea

    HEALTH 
    This year I had a breakthrough how to think about diet. It can be summarized in 3 steps. 1) Eat enough calories for your activity level. 2) Eat enough of each necessary nutrient. 3) Limit the harmful nutrients / harmful quantities. That's it. If you are not eating enough food, you will not...

    How a new cafe in my building became successful

    STORY 
    This year, a new cafe has opened in my high-rise. Another coffee-and-sandwich place on that same block closed within weeks. Absolutely destroyed by the competition. Now I find myself spending about $500/month on takeouts from the new place. And it's not like there were no other restaurants...

    2-year old Volunteer project seeks programmer

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Hey forum, so there's this volunteer project, a computer game, a city builder focused on the climate change theme. I can share link in DM. (Hence posting in off-topic because it's currently not for profit.) It's been in development for 2 years and the main programmer wants to move on, so...

    Climate Change-related Industries

    IDEA 
    According to a World Bank Report, just Indian cities will need $2.4 trillion for climate-related infrastructure by 2050. Most of it is just adaptation to the consequences, not even talking about slowing down the impact, carbon accounting, carbon removal, etc. India already has a "Ministry of...

    Stop reading self-improvement books

    MINDSET 
    As someone who has read a lot of non-fiction, my advice is know when to stop. Somebody asked on this forum, what book to read after TMF, and got very insightful advice: don't read any. Just take action. Just because a book is in a self-improvement section at Barnes & Noble does not mean that it...

    Setting health goals

    MINDSET 
    Once I got this idea from Brian Tracy that one can set health goals. I tried this idea at some point in the past, and it worked! Certain health difficulties used to consume hours of my time every week, sometimes more than 10 hours. I cannot say that I have solved the issues completely, but...

    My experience going to a Timeshare sales presentation

    MARKETING RANT 
    Watched the fake guru video. It is simply excellent. I think it's the quality of the editing and the artistic presentation that made it successful, among other things. Let me share my own experience of attending a Wyndham hotel "timeshare" presentation — maybe you make a future video about...

    Become a freelance tutor and make $50-100/hour or more

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    This forum has taught me much, and I would love to give back and share some of my experience. Why tutor? If you are a college grad with a decent command of English, math and/or a particular subject, this is a great way to make side cash when you need it while meeting new people and building...

    Value for employees other than money

    PEOPLE 
    What can motivate a great employee to work for a below-market salary? In other words, what would be a way to hire someone brilliant on a limited budget? Some options I am aware of: 1. Equity / profit sharing / other forms of financial upside in the future. This is not always practical if e.g...

    The SlowLane of yoga, pilates, and fitness classes

    SLOWLANE HEALTH 
    Background: I have 10+ years of dance training. I perform ballet, and I have taught Argentine Tango and yoga. I did not, however, start as a kid; my first background was in math and programming. I have been through more than my fair share of open classes in dance, yoga, pilates, and a bunch of...
