Readit NewsCreatine is one of the few supplements that I can say has noticeable immediate difference on or off. Without it, my recoveries take longer and I have to back down workouts to 4-5 days a week.
5mg a day... time doesn't seem to make a difference but I take pre workout. No hair loss or other side effects.
I have owned a dozen or so printers over the last decade going back to PrintrBot. As with a lot of users, the BambuLabs X1 was hands down the best out the box experience of any printer I own. It continues to be my go to printer while my other Prusa's + Creality's sit idle. As long as the cloud service never becomes a paid subscription I could care less that I am locked into their ecosystem. The additionally functionality that provides is a plus for me not a minus.
The fact they have crammed a bunch of the same features of the X1/P1 into a smaller printer that is sub $500 is pretty amazing.
My last company had all the AWS goodies, spending thousands per month...on a site that got around 50 hits a day.
>90% of companies are overspending on cloud resources. On average, 30-40% depending on provider (AWS is typically the worst).
>75% of IT/Engineering teams have overbuilt their environments to leverage the latest & greatest tech stacks / toolsets with no justifiable business need.
>50% will confidently state they have “optimized” their environment and in almost every case there is money being left on the table. We have only engaged with one customer that we couldn’t offer savings. They spend $30M+ per year on AWS and had a full time staff of 3 engineers solely focused on cost optimization.
>50% of IT / Engineering leaders became incredibly defensive when presented with savings analysis which almost always included reduction in technical complexity of stack. We have since pivoted and marketing/engaging almost exclusively to CEO/CFO as first contact.
>50% of companies had one of more cloud costing/monitoring tools in place that was not being leveraged, or worse, gamed to produce inaccurate reports.
Worth noting, the first one lasted 13 months before the frame became fairly rusty/moldy from sweat. I would put most the blame here on me though as I was only one using it so I didn't always wipe up the pool of sweat after use. I would also say I'm on the extreme end of customers using it once or twice daily.
The second one, which I bought last month, now has a plastic frame instead of metal so should be non-issue. It also now has a washable foam floor panel I take out after each use to dry and can be machine washed.
Nerdy addition, I got paranoid about some Amazon reviews/comments mentioning EMF exposure so I bought an EMF meter to test the sauna. I don't remember exact reading but it rated lower than sitting in my car while idling. While it may still have been high for some, I justified it by the fact I'm driving far less since I WFH so in the end about the same.

I sit in it at least once a day followed by a 10-15 minute cold shower where I drink a 32oz of water and another 32oz of water mixed with popular powdered green vitamin.
For these familiar with Whoop, I consistently have 5-10% better recoveries and sleep performance on the days I use the sauna. I also feel better which is what really matters.
For me, Rizatriptan helped take the edge off pain but I always had more migraines than pills could safely relieve in any given month. In the end, most months I had to choose whether I would get relief in the moment or save the 1-2 remaining pills for the following week(s) before a refill.
I had every blood / allergy test available and none ever showed any issues. I thought there may be a correlation to gluten but there were times where gluten (bread) helped with the nausea side effects.
Ultimately, I gave up gluten, coffee and sugar all at once. Within weeks I felt better and suffered no migraines for over a year until I decided to test the waters with a flour tortilla. Within a few hours I was bed ridden with a migraine for 2-3 days.
I have worked sugar back in to my diet in moderation but gluten and coffee are still out. I have only had that one migraine in 3+ years.
Anyone suffering, the absolute best advice I ever got was to keep a food / pain log. Do it every day no matter what. It may take a week, months or a year but it will uncover something that will help reduce frequency. Also, listen to your body. I had numerous doctors tell me I didn't have any food allergies and to focus on other areas for relief. Every single one was wrong and I could have had a cure years previous.
