That doesn’t track with reality as far as I can tell.

Post-Cambridge Analytica, yeah, a smidge surprised.

The story from Hunterbrook is also pretty crazy with Muse having much more access to Meta’s social graphs than I suspect most users would hope.

The only mention of red light jumping is the victim’s opinion that it’s a factor.

I don’t think that’s true given how many people do it with their own bikes.

Let’s not be too harsh, 3 years should be sufficient.

We also need a points-based system on the tube, if you’re walking slowly in tunnels blocking traffic at rush hour because you’re staring at your phone you get a point. 5 points and you get a 6 month ban from the tube.

Set up some automated scanners for cyclists jumping red lights in the City as well.

No comment on the joint thing.

As far as tendons are concerned, they require proactive rehab and you have to load them. There are various loading strategies that a physio is best placed to advise on. Shockwave therapy has also been found to help.

Some pain during tendon loading during rehab is generally expected and not necessarily a negative sign, somewhere around a 4/10 at most.

Recovery is slow in the order of months, not weeks.

There is some evidence that taking a collagen peptide based protein along with vitamin c an hour before loading the tendon can help.

I take creatine daily, have done for well over a year. I also run 5-6 days a week and lift twice a week.

I’ve previously stopped taking it for a couple months and noticed no real difference in physical or mental ability.

Go drink Margs with friends.

Cures both your scurvy and your social scurvy.

And you’re mostly only seeing them because they’re paying Amazon to be promoted in listings.

What you are talking about is marketing and advertising. You’re not solving anything.

Pink boots is because of the strong contrast against the green grass, no?

He’s referring to jerseys sold to fans, not those worn by the athletes.
