How to Combat Poor Movement in Your Upper Body Training | Breaking Muscle
In this article we’re going to look at how to improve movement quality in the upper body with mobility, stability, and motor control focused exercises. Sports-specific needs aside, the bulk of my initial programming for my clients’ upper body work focuses on the posterior chain, and there's no change here. I believe in lengthening the front and strengthening the back of the body first.

“The formulation of a problem is often more essential than its solution, which may be merely a matter of mathematical or experimental skill. To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle, requires creative imagination and marks real advance in science.”
— Albert Einstein & Leopold Infeld
https://www.infoq.com/articles/problem-reframing-method/
- Avoid building wrong solutions or products by directly jumping into solution thinking and not empathizing with the problem
- Finding a better problem that fits the customer’s needs better opens up a space for more innovative and sustainable solutions
- Looking at a problem from different angles helps to build more innovative and sustainable solutions or products
- Try different reframing practices and methods, such as examining bright spots or looking in the mirror; there is not a one-size-fits-all approach

My Guilty Perl Obsession
Perl came for free. How much have I contributed in return? Absolutely nothing.
I work as what I’d call an inside-contractor.
I’m a speed-dial (is that still a thing?) phone call away.
Occasionally, a client will call me a dozen times in a day.
I’m closer than their coleague in the next office.
How In the world can I make my voice deeper? : VoiceActing
I'm 17 (M) And It seems like I cannot get a deeper voice for some reason. Puberty did me the MOST dirty and BARELY did anything to my voice. And...
Seek a lower vibration. Practice. Humm
-
Relax your vocal cords, lower intonation is a more open throated expression. More air, more open. If you take singing classes they teach you that kind of stuff.
-
Masculine isn’t necessarily a pitch, although deeper is interpreted as more masculine in context.
-
Know where you fit and expand what you’ve got. Try imitating others, and don’t constrict your throat trying to sound deep.
-
Try thinking of it like you’re yawning while talking.
-
I recommend starting with YouTube and channels like Trans Voice Lessons' older videos.
-
Relax your jaw, shoulders and throat muscles. Feel your throat opening up and your larynx descending. It helps to yawn.
Now spend a few minutes every day - or as often as you like - humming in that state, going as low as is comfortable, then just a bit lower. Don't force it, and don't try to power through any pain, because that'll make your voice tense and high. You can get a tone generating app, and harmonise to a frequency, lowering it carefully. -
You could, however, try to talk better in general. Not pushing for a deeper voice, but for a more relaxed tone. Speaking with more confidence and enunciation. That can actually help you overall in the long run

222. Automating Processes with Software is HARD
We have decades of experience trying to automate processes. The biggest lesson is that automation is not about the easy and known flow, but about exception handling.
The best diagnosis for exception handling I can think of is to wait on line at the post office. If you’ve ever done that, you know the thought of “doesn’t anyone just want to mail a package” comes to mind. As it turns out the entire flow at the post office (or DMV or tax office) is about exception handling. No amount of software is going to get you out of there because it is piecing together a bunch of inputs and outputs that are outside the bounds of a system.
The ability to automate hinges not just on the ability to know the steps to take for predefined inputs, and not even the steps to take if some inputs are erroneous or incomplete, but what to do if you can’t even specify the inputs.
My favorite example of the latter is how the arrival of IBM computing in the 60s and 70s totally changed the definition of accounting, inventory control, and business operations. Every process that was "computerized" ultimately looked nothing at all like what was going on under those green eyeshades in accounting. Much of the early internet (and still most bank and insurance) look like HTML front ends to mainframe 3270 screens. Those might eventually change, just not quickly. It might be that the "legacy" or "installed base" of many processes is such that the cost to change is too monumental.

Honda Civic - No A/C
In this video we have a look at this 2003 Honda Civic 1.7 that came in with a complaint of no A/C or blowing warm air out of the vents when the a/c was turned on. It was a fun fix because it had a little twist at the end that almost got missed but ended up being a good fix. Some times it is a little more than just being low on refrigerant.
