This makes me feel old. I learned Fortran on the Dartmouth Time-Sharing System back in 1980. While I think of Fortran now and again and think about re-learning, I haven't thought of DTSS in years.
The host segments with Jonah aren't too bad. I don't care for the host segments with Felicia Day & Patton Oswalt; but, I didn't care for Pearl and Bobo, either. I don't care for the changing voices and characteristics of the bots, either.
I think the riffs are more "generalized." In the original, there were riffs that were regional or more obscure (e.g. Hamdingers).
Since becoming disabled and not driving anymore, I use an app on my phone to read ebooks, rather than carry a book. I'm always reading two or three at a time; so, I can decide which to read depending on the time I am waiting (for a ride, for an appointment, etc.).
I thought it was the same thing until I tried it myself, especially in dark rooms. Having the light from my phone hurt my eyes after reading with an ereader. It’s a really huge difference
At this point, it looks like 2025 will be the first I neither bought nor read a physical book. I still read every day; but, they've all been ebooks this year. Since I read on my phone, I don't need to carry a book or ereader. I used to read physical books before going to bed; but, this year, I found myself reading fewer books at the same time. (As opposed to a couple on my phone and a couple of physical books before bed.)
> Has anyone? It's got an August 2026 publication date. Is there even a first draft?
I'd guess the book is an expanded version of the blog. (Which I don't recommend - I do think this is conspiracy theory territory and of negative value.)
>You can't really diagnose by levels, though, unless you knew what that person's previous levels were.
Exactly. Before suggesting it. my doctor had more than a year's worth of data. (I have some blood tests done quarterly; so, he added one for testosterone.) Even then, he sent the results to my urologist.
But also - say over your 55th year your levels were 800, but when you felt your best and most confident at 35, your levels were 1000. What is the correct level for you?
TBD. I was told you start TRT and then check the level in three months. Based on the new level and symptoms, the dosage gets adjusted. That's the difference between doing actually in consultation with a doctor, as opposed to a one-time phone/internet "consult."
