So, are companies paying that amount for people at other roles to use it?

Obviously not

You don’t have Parkinson and you probably don’t take that much coffee

Usual espresso from 42mm puck is 18g of coffee beans in, something around 40g of total coffee out. This has 90…150 mg of caffeine. The study focused on people having more than 300 mg daily.

So don’t drink more than 2 cups per day and you’ll be fine.


Also don't smoke or do any of the other things this study didn't control for but do correlate with caffeine consumption in the general population.

I drink 3 moka pots each morning and usually one in the afternoon. I don’t have Parkinson’s right now, but for all I know I am pre diagnosis…. I have been getting tingling feelings in my fingers lately

> So don’t drink more than 2 cups per day and you’ll be fine.

Easier said than done...


Oh 2 cups. Ok.

We’re all fucked.


Try the micronized (even finer powder) version — never had an issue with 7.5g daily

High dosage is not for your daily intake

It’s called a loading phase to quickly saturate the tissues i.e for a week or so for someone who never took the creatine. You can absolutely skip this.

I wouldn’t go higher than 10g daily on a regular basis.

I personally take 7.5g for the last couple of years.


The entire point is that >10G is justified if you're going for cognitive effects. For muscles you don't need to go above 5G. For brain, >15G.

For now there are zero studies that I know of that support this.

The only ones are for sleep deprived.


There are a number of studies on the topic of varying quality but I think that's besides the point.

> It’s called a loading phase

This is not about a loading phase. "It's called a loading phase" indicates that the reason you would take high doses is for the muscular saturation that some people think is required. You're right that you can absolutely skip the loading phase, but that's not the point. The point is that you would take the higher dose for the cognitive effects.


Please give me a link to at least one study with verified cognitive benefits of high-intake creatine which is not for sleep-deprived case.

I'm not going to Google this for you, sorry! They're out there though.

Well, I did. Also with chatgpt agent to specifically go through pubmed and what have you.

The results were zero


Try micronised (even finer powder, maxxwell has them) or even in jelly gummy form.

I take 7.5 g every day for a couple of years now and what I definitely noticed is much lower sugar cravings during hard programming days: previously I would eat almost one chocolate every day.

Though YMMV, as I also bench press 140 kg.



How much time do you think it would pass before that guy comes back to reality and will lay off a bunch of agents? :-)

For windows “Dev drive” (it is a windows feature) is a must.

Also at least Rider makes special tweaks with elevated access and what have you for antivirus exclusions


Install ideavim and press “yyp” :-)


Its "yyP" :-)


The main point of IDE is not code completion but lots of static and dynamic analysis to keep you from writing bad, slow, insecure, what have you, code.

Most of that stuff is proprietary and cannot be plugged into terminal.

The only attempt I’ve seen was actually by Jetbrains with Resharper beta for vscode


That's mostly delegated out to language servers now. There's no need for Zed and Emacs and Vim and so on to each individually have to re-implement renaming a Rust function.

I also highly doubt that any IDE, whatever that is, is better at analyzing Rust code than rust-analyzer is. Not every language will have a language server that excellent, but I hope that'll improve for those users.


Eh, haven't needed it. Especially now that there are AI coding agents, but even before that. If I really wanted to run some static analysis in IntelliJ, always had the option to do it separately from my real editor.
