<p>The answer is simple - you price in the chance that an insider could have an edge on you when making your prediction. It's all part of the game.</p>

<p>I had my real-deal moment recently.<p>I was getting Claude to implement a popular TS drag and drop library, and asked it to do something that, it turns out, wasn't supported by the library.<p>Claude read the minified code in node_modules and npm patched the library with the feature. It worked, too.<p>Obviously not ideal for future proofing but completely mind blowing that it can do that.</p>

<p>Deadlifts are how I got into that mess. There are two types of deadlifter: those who have ruined their back, and those who haven't yet ruined their back.<p>Romanian deadlifts are much safer. Also hip thrusts and weighted back extensions are good enough unless you're a competitive power lifter.</p>

<p>For hamstring stretch I find using a back extension station works well, doing one leg at a time (<a href="https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61TQEGNUgQL._AC_UF894,1000_QL80_.jpg" rel="nofollow">https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61TQEGNUgQL._AC_UF894,10...</a>). Let gravity  pull your torso down, which will stretch your hamstring. If that's not possible, using the corner of a wall works too (<a href="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/2U4ChnuL3JM/maxresdefault.jpg" rel="nofollow">https://i.ytimg.com/vi/2U4ChnuL3JM/maxresdefault.jpg</a>)<p>For the McKenzie stretch (<a href="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e556aadfe97d3364e789f90/1593630609498-PNFLELOEW2WCU1N3QD65/mckenzie.jpg" rel="nofollow">https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e556aadfe97d3...</a>), instead of just holding the stretch, do reps between laying flat and then going into the stretch. At the end of your final rep (I would do 8), rotate side to side gently when arched.<p>Dead hangs: hang from a bar for 30 seconds, completely relaxed. Then 1 minute of rest. Repeat 3 times. This decompresses your spine.</p>

<p>I had a bulging lumbar disc - pure agony for 18 months. I had become used to carrying a lumbar pillow around with me everywhere I went. I couldn't lean forward for more than about 30 seconds without it being unbearable.<p>Then someone suggested I try dead hangs, stretching my hamstrings, and really cranking the McKenzie stretch. I'm not sure which one made the difference (all 3?), but pain was gone in 2 weeks.<p>Maybe it will help, maybe it won't. But since someone took a flyer telling me, I always share this with others in the small chance it helps them.</p>

<p>I think intent comes into play here. Grok was not created to create CSAM, just like photoshop. But both can be used to create it.</p>

<p>What would happen if someone used photoshop to create CSAM? Should Adobe be held responsible because they didn't prevent it?<p>Grok is just another tool, and IMO it shouldn't have guard rails. The user is responsible for their prompts and what they create with it.</p>
