Math Academy has some of that but remains a calm and distraction-free learning environment that still actually teaches anyone who shows up to regularly and consistently do the work. Worth checking out.

Software Design by Example sounds like what you want [0].
There's also NAND to Tetris [1], csprimer [2], and/or lists like these [3] or codecrafters [4].

Here's a 10% clone of Mathematica - https://mathics.org/
This reminded me of one of the greatest posts in the history of the internet, and I am devastated to report that it no longer exists: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6516114
Have you seen a psychiatrist?

No, I mean for some, a high saturated fat diet can do amazing wonders. And for others, it causes horrible issues. The studies are not well segmented genetically and by body state since that is signficantly more expensive and genetics only got cheap in the past 10 years or so, so they wash out these large sub-population dynamics.
It's the sort of thing you can just experiment with and see for yourself.
Try eating the usual health-promoting diet high in fiber and low in saturated fats from animal sources, mostly whole foods, lots of fruits and veggies and legumes and whole grains, lean meats, etc.
After a few months, check your blood work.
Then reintroduce fattier cuts of meat into your diet and see what your numbers do after a few months.
Thanks for posting this. I was able to plug in all the required values from my last checkup and blood work. Even EGFR was there, I've never paid attention to that before.
I learned about it on the Barbell Medicine podcast! They had an episode dedicated to it.
Highly recommended to search their episodes for anything about health or fitness you've been curious about.
Alzheimer's too.
If you made a Venn diagram for the non-genetic risk factors for heart disease and Alzheimer's, they'd basically be a circle.
Being worried about dementia but ignoring things like heart disease, diabetes, poor sleep, getting enough exercise, eating a health-promoting diet, etc. is like worrying about paying for retirement but refusing to save and invest.
There are a handful of high-impact habits that meaningfully lower your risk for the major killers people are worried about: https://www.barbellmedicine.com/blog/where-should-my-priorit...
Very interesting, but do the numerous mentions of taking action in your 20s, 30s and 40s mean it's too late for someone in their 50s?
Nitpick: he mentions LDL-C but the test results don't mention that at all. Only later do I see that is "LDL Cholesterol".
It's like time in the market.
In a real sense, you've spent decades likely increasing your risk unnecessarily when taking action early would have given you the greatest leverage to lower your lifetime risk.
But you can't change the past. If you didn't plant a tree 20 years ago, plant it today and you'll still get some benefit, minimizing any future increase in risk and maybe even lowering it.
You could realistically have almost half your life left before you, and you can still end up being fitter and healthier than you've ever been in your life if you adopt healthy habits around diet, strength training, and endurance training.
They both come from the Racket school of pedagogy and focus on systematic program design [2]. The first resource is free and excellent, but the second goes into more detail.
