That sounds exciting

I had my taxes done by someone this year and the IRS sent me a notice that I owed $1600 for not paying my taxes on time because they didn’t receive the extension.

Training to failure is a pretty great idea for beginners and something that should be done often at any training age. Main reason being you need to take a set to within 3 reps of mechanical failure to get a proper growth stimulus. So you need to lean where the line actually is, and remind yourself often.

I need to admit I didn’t read your post well enough and so my response was a little off. I think it’s important to point out that when you say beginners should train to failure often, this doesn’t mean every workout or every set of every workout, it’s just a tool that lets you learn where failure is and how many reps you can perform. And there’s some debate in all of this, but I think it’s pretty well accepted that training to failure does not in itself provide results above other methods.

Training to failure doesn’t increase strength or hypertrophy according to Jordan and Austin (both medical doctors) at Barbell Medicine. https://forum.barbellmedicine.com/t/training-to-failure/11792

But they do use RPE where you estimate how close you are to failure in order to perform a number of reps for that set.

I think you mean you actually like frame generation even though you seem to be jokingly comparing it to motion smoothing on a TV?

The doctors look down at my boner and ask what I’m going to name it. “Hank or Clarissa” I say.

For me motion clarity is so important. I love frame generation, especially if frames are getting inserted without much delay.

You can list a hundred negative aspects of present day PC use like this article does, but it totally ignores improvements and positive aspects. Like yeah you could use word 95 without it contacting a Microsoft server but office 95 compared to office 2010 or later is like a night and day difference.

They mention DRM and say it’s gotten bad in the last decade but DRM has been terrible for the last 25 years. You used to buy a music CD (in like 2003) and put it in the computer and you couldn’t play it because of DRM.

It’s just not a balanced article. I actually think they have a lot of good content here and they make some good points but they shoehorned all these things to fit their conclusion and there’s no counter-point.

Edit: it’s just factually incorrect that “The PC is dead” You have DJs making electronic music, artists painting, PC Gaming, You can manage your finances, keep photo albums, and basically anything they are being romantic about in this article is just a talking point, I could argue counter points for almost every paragraph. Things are better than they were. Email barely worked, always getting flooded with spam because there weren’t any spam filters. Devices weren’t plug and play, they were very difficult to get working. So what if there are garbage products on Amazon or wherever, that doesn’t make the point the author is pretending that it makes.

We do need privacy rights and right to repair like the author says, but there have always been things to fight for. Maybe I’m just missing the point- since 2001 people have been saying “I won’t use .Net!” Because everyone was worried that office suite would run in a web browser or wherever and people thought the PC was dead, we’d all be using terminal sessions instead (where you just see the remote desktop not the computing is done on a server somewhere else). The point the author is making isn’t any more true today than it was 20 years ago, it’s not a new point, it’s something people have always agreed with. But the PC is not dead.

You know he just wants that check. How much is he being paid?
