I work for a training department for a large financial institution. I think I could explain it as teaching people how to do their job better. Though I don't actually do much teaching, personally.

I've liked the Jackpot series, but I absolutely adore the Sprawl series. I also loved the bridge series.
I had to look up:
HHGTTG = The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
I've had a Leap V2 for the last couple of years, and really like it so far.
I tried to do a bunch of small things. No single thing was the key.
- started drinking my coffee black
- drink more water, and drink water instead of other things
- I take the stairs instead of elevator/escalator whenever possible
- I try not to eat seconds at dinner
- "Real" exercise (like running, rowing, etc.) every other day, but if I can squeeze in extra ones, (e.g., 2 days in a row), I go for it
- If I'm not up for real exercise, I'll go for a walk
- intermittent fasting in the mornings, so often no breakfast, but not necessarily every day
- No snacking after 19:00
- At restaurants, if 2 options look good, go for the one with fewer calories
There are probably more, but those are the kinds of habits we're talking about.
Also important: if you don't stick to all habits, don't beat yourself up about it.
With the above, I was able to get from a high of 235 lbs down to around 180. I'm a bit more than that right now, but pretty close still.
I work at slice 13/14
Shoot, that would have been nice to see on PlayStation too.
I've done both, though I have been typing mostly over the last couple of years.
There are those who feel that the act of writing by hand, while slower, can have benefits that typing doesn't. Not sure I believe that, though I do believe that for some, hand writing is just the more enjoyable way to go.
For me, I write in Org Mode, which for this purpose is kind of like Markdown. I use Emacs on my computer, and an app called Plain Org on my phone.
Oh, I hadn't heard of that.
BTW: what do you use now?
It's definitely been big news for a while in the Gran Turismo community.
And even though it's safe, it doesn't feel safe. I think they have replaced the glass from what you see in this picture. I think they have new glass that doesn't require the cross piece that you see here. Not that it makes a difference from a safety perspective, but you do feel like you're floating out there. Lots of grown people who refused to step on that glass!
No Country for Old Men was great too, and it made a better transition to film than The Road, in my opinion.
