Moving camps and space/weight an issue (backpack, xc ski, kayak, bike), instant coffee.

Base camp with day trips or car camp.

What about the Flyers version, Bernie in the Nets?

Two weeks, a few times. Backpacking in the sierra, kayaking in Baja, and climbing trips to j-tree. Except j-tree, trips included swims but no soap. DYK salt water kills most bacteria that cause body odor, some salt rash but no odor kayaking in Baja.

Damn fine country there

Systems analyst is like a programmer analyst without the coding. I agree, in my experience small shops were more likely to have just programmer analysts. Often also responsible for hardware as well.

If it’s just you I hope you didn’t need a systems analyst to gather requirements and then work with the programmer to implement them. If you did, might need another kind of analysis. ;)

Don’t know if actually Saturday mornings but The Gumby Show, The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle, and Thunderbirds. Spiderman was Saturday mornings for sure.
All were rare, TV was in parents bedroom until I was in middle school and I needed permission to watch.

True.

A good systems analyst can effectively translate user requirements into accurate statements, does not need to be a programmer. Good systems analysts are generally more adept in asking clarifying questions, challenging assumptions and sussing out needs. Good programmers will still be needed but their time is wasted gathering requirements.

Wouldn’t that be ass down?

Hear me out, toasted onion dill rye bread instead of a bagel. Room for more lox, creme cheese so holds together and a better crunch. Also rosemary sourdough bread.

Hai!

Grade 5 or 6, teacher was introducing a project about the wisdom inherent in proverbs (not biblical, traditional sayings). In discussion I opined there was no wisdom in contradictions like “look before you leap” versus “he who hesitates is lost” and “many hands make light work” versus “too many cooks spoil the broth”, the wisdom was knowing which proverb applies to the situation at hand. Sent to the principal and received a beating with a paddle for being a disruptive smart aleck.

Computer is long gone but still have this on the bookshelf

All true except T2 is not just a lifestyle related illness.

T2 is not just a lifestyle related illness.

Some people are genetically predisposed and get T2 no matter what lifestyle changes they make.

Some people have a damaged pancreas and develop T2 no matter what lifestyle changes they make.

Some people with disabilities can’t really change their lifestyle.

The lifestyle change first regimen without medication would kill many.

I understand for many, if not most, the lifestyle change is all that is needed, I even advocate lifestyle changes in another comment. I spent 5 years on an organization committee for the ADA’s tour de cure and have given presentations on the ADA’s Choose your plate, nutrition for life. You don’t need to convince me lifestyle changes are important.

I also know many people that developed T2 in spite of a healthy lifestyle. I know people that would be dead if not for their medications because T2 is not just a lifestyle related illness.

Again T2 is not just a lifestyle related illness.

It’s an ornithological avatar. I’m trying to raise mass awareness of a certain avian variety.

Without medication some people will die, others will be permanently disabled. No amount of lifestyle changes will help them with out medication.

Naw, one size fits most is a horrible way to practice medicine. All treatments should be geared to the individuals situation and needs.

Keep at it, it can help prevent. Even if it does not prevent it can make symptoms less severe. Also long sessions of cardio are very helpful, hikes and bike rides can be fun ways to get cardio but treadmill and stationary bike work as well.
