If u are increwasing the intensity/frequency of workouts and experiencing discomfort/pain, sounds like you should slow down that acceleration of your training.
Easy to overtrain and reduce gains.
In Jack Daniels book of running he talks about increasing workout intensity, you should only increase intensity of one variable of your training every 6 weeks, that way you give your body time to adjust to increased stress levels, you know what is/isnt working.
Rather slowly ramp up than try go too fast, get injured, and spend weeks sitting on the couch waiting to heal.
All of my work programming related queries have been like this, i end up reading their answer which sounds like it makes sense, but it just isnt relevant to the question i asked.
I had a job that wasnt a great for me, about two years into it i paid off all my debt and was hoping to make a career pivot to get into software development.
I just started taking longer lunches, was always polite and civil, but stopping making effort to communicate with directors when we were in the same room together.
I work on a keyboard all day for about ten years now,
I got into PC gaming again after work, stopped because i didnt want to sit at a PC after work hours/carpal tunnel symptoms started up.
I got into doing pushups with bad form, stopped because i started getting wrist pain/carparal tunnel stuff from my bad form and then working on a keyboard all day.
To try prevent my desk job from turning me into a human potato:
I try walk before the day starts, run 4 miles at some point during the day, and end the workday with a walk to try keep the blood pumping.
Well we saw a lot of that happen in US during covid. Why work at all if i can collect $X more not working? Its rational not to work more for less so i dont blame them.
I think this is also happening in USA long term, lots of "low income" americans who are knowledgeable of navigating welfare programs earn more than middle class workers if you factor in their entitlements.
I read an article a while ago that said for high net worth individuals there is a backlog of people waiting for US to process giving up US citizenship, US is under no obligation to hurry processing.
Quick google search shows articles citing "30,000 backlog" of people wanting appointments to cancel.
Yes it would be more efficient. But we know bad actors would manipulate the process. If i could make a dummy profile, see a question, then create a new profile after having time to prepare i could ace interviews for jobs im not really qualified for. Ive attempted to hire multiple devs over last year that clearly had someone else on a technical interview call so we ended up just cancelling their start date after discussion.
But if company has good relationship with recruiter it works,
I interviewed through a recruiter, company X gave me some questions, answered them correctly, did one or two algo questions correctly. X hiring manager wanted more experience regardless of my decent performance.
Recruiter shared results with company Y, Y hired me and was happy to avoid sitting through an additional 1 hour interview session with me.
Not a research env, but my approach to learning the env at new jobs regardless of industry:
-learning what business processes i need to try understand that will eventualy get converted into code. This is the hard part, requires relying on talking to other devs, any documentation, and learning what they need you to do.
-technical things i dont know but will need to know soon like we will do X written in Y to do Z (if i had never done X Y or Z i would try get familiar with that when time allowed).
