What If You Could Improve Fitness And Stimulate Lean Muscle Growth? By Farrell Seah Bovine colostrum is a natural, whole-food supplement that offers enormous health benefits to baby cows and humans of all ages. It is a perfect food source that is high in carbohydrates, proteins and antibodies, yet low in fat and very easy to digest.
Because it is the only form of colostrum not specific to the species producing it, bovine colostrum contains all the beneficial immune factors and growth factors found in all other colostrum sources, and these factors are biologically transferable to humans. This is not only a very interesting cow-fact, but also the secret behind many of the most important colostrum benefits.
Supplementation with bovine colostrum can strengthen the immune system’s ability to fight infection and disease, strengthen the body to increase energy and improve athletic performance, and maintain overall health by balancing the processes in the digestive tract. For these reasons, everyone can benefit from colostrum supplementation, and everyone should take advantage of these many colostrum benefits.
Fighting Infection and Disease
Colostrum benefits people fighting infection and disease by offering a concentrated source of immune factors and growth factors that address both the physical symptoms and underlying causes of several illnesses. The immunoglobulins and accessory immune factors in colostrum make it a completely natural and very powerful antibiotic.
Together, these immune factors can boost an underactive immune system to increase resistance to infection, or regulate an underactive immune system to temper the severity of allergies and autoimmune responses. Both immune factors and growth factors actively restore function to the gastrointestinal tract, preventing the passage of disease-causing pathogens through the intestinal lining, and slowing or stopping the progression of many gastrointestinal disorders and autoimmune diseases.
Staying Fit and Active
Colostrum benefits people who wish to stay fit and active by offering a balanced source of nutrition that helps keep the
body running smoothly. The growth factors in bovine colostrum stimulate lean muscle growth and promote the burning of excess body fat for energy, while its many immune factors work together to reduce the frequency and severity of infections caused by physical, environmental, and emotional stress.
Because growth factors are active in tissue repair, they can also serve to regenerate skin, nerve, bone, and cartilage in the body, making these particular colostrum benefits effective in reversing many of the signs and physical symptoms of aging.
Maintaining Overall Health
Colostrum benefits anyone who wishes to maintain their body’s overall health, or increase its resistance to infection and disease. In addition to immune factors and growth factors, bovine colostrum contains a variety of vitamins, minerals, and essential amino acids, making it a perfect first food for infants, and a perfect dietary supplement for people of all ages.
Through colostrum supplementation, a regular replenishment of immune factors serves to support the immune system by providing immunoglobulins (antibodies) that aid in the everyday removal of harmful invaders like viruses and bacteria, and promote gastrointestinal health.
Because of this ability to maintain a healthy gastrointestinal tract, colostrum may well be the best practical protection available against autoimmune disease, cancer, and other chronic conditions associated with gastrointestinal disorders. Further, it is completely natural and has no known side effects or harmful interactions with other supplements or medications.

I missed the memo on dill
Saturday is grocery store day.
So I'm at my local Publix and I'm in the spice aisle looking for dried dill.
And I can't seem to find any.
Everything else but dill.
I'm looking for several minutes when I finally find a small container of dill,
hidden behind a shelf mounted price tag.
It's only ? of an ounce (9g) and it's how much?
$20/oz (28g)?
The only spice more expensive that that is safron.
But the price of safron has always rivaled the price of gold,
but dill?
Is there some dill shortage going on?
Did I not get the memo?
Needless to say,
I did not get the dill.

No more pictures sans context
For the past year,
I've been enjoying the Picture Pages,
a site on Gemini that presents five random pictures.
It was always enjoyable and sometimes surprising when it linked to some picture from my blog without context.
And today,
it's no more.
I already miss it.

Zemblanity is the word, is the word that your heard, it's got groove it's got meaning
I received an email from Christopher Williams about a word for an unplanned unfortunate discovery,
and he stated that the word I was looking for was ?zemblanity.?
I have never heard this word before,
so I decided to try looking it up in the The Compact Edition of the Oxford English Dictionary.
I did not find it,
but then again,
the copy I have is from 1971.
It may be a new word.
I did,
however,
find the word ?Zemblan,?
which describes things relating to Nova Zembla,
an island in the Artic Ocean north of Russia.
I decided to check the online Oxford dictionary and did not find the word there.
I then did some Internet searching and found that it was made up by William Boyd for his book
Armadillo.
The reason for defining the word ?zemblanity? as the opposite of ?serendipity? is worth reading in the linked article.
Not only is it fitting,
I found it amusing.

I'm giving up on the Brazilian SYN attacks
For the past few months I've been slowly building up a list of Brazilian networks to block,
and if the theory of why it's happening is true,
then it's going to be a long slog of banning Brazilian networks for,
if not months,
then years
(with a reported 21,000+ ISPs in Brazil ? yeah).
Just yesterday,
I ended up blocking somewhere around 10 networks before I stopped and asked myself,
Myself,
how did I get here?
On the one hand,
I don't want to participate in a DDoS attack.
On the other hand,
I don't like the idea of blocking an entire country.
But the attacks just keep on coming.
I could write a program that runs every n minutes,
scans for excessive TCP connections in the SYN_RECV state,
identify the ASN of the offending IP address and block it,
retiring out older blocks to keep from overwhelming the firewall.
It's just that it adds another cog on the server to keep greased,
and the attacks aren't that distruptive on the server?they're just annoying.
Generally,
the attacks towards any given Brazilian network would last for a few days then drop off entirely.
I also suspect that most of the forged IP addresses are not in use.
I attempted to ping a few and never received a reply
(although it could be that ping packets were being blocked on the Brazilian side,
I was able to ping a few IP addresses in a block that was being attacked but never to an IP address that ?sent? a SYN packet).
Ideally to fix this issue,
network operators would filter for forged IP traffic at the edge of their networks
(where computers connect),
and shut off the connection to the compromised computer.
Or maybe just nuke every Windows system off the Internet just to make sure.
In the meantime,
I give up.
I removed all the blocks I've built up over the past few months
(70 of them?nearly one a day)
and just resigned myself to be an unwilling participant in a Brazilian DDoS attack.
Sigh.

The ultimate in the Droste effect and how it was made
3Blue1Brown just released ?This picture broke my brain,?
a video about M. C. Escher's ?Print Gallery.?
You know,
this picture (curtesy of Wikipedia):
The 3Blue1Brown video not only goes into the math behind the print,
but also presents what should appear in the blank center than even M. C. Escher himself had trouble wrapping his brain around.
Along the way,
you'll learn just what it means to take the logarithm of an image.

?Serendipity? is an unplanned fortunate discovery; this isn't that, but I can't quite find the word for an unplanned unfortunate discovery
Each time I run start a command line,
a different quote is printed.
This is something I've had set up for years now,
and by this time,
I have over 11,000 quotes that could potentially come up.
But just now,
the following quote popped up:
Perl supports to the Cult of Mediocrity (so does Visual Basic, and many
others). It allows a minimally-competent programmer to write code, without
thought to the community in general. In sort, perl allows you to be both
lazy AND rude. The problem with the Cult of Mediocracy is that it places
higher value on getting anything to work, rather than stopping to think if
it should work.
Huh.
There's no telling how long ago I added the quote.
I remember obtaining a file of quotes back in 1988,
and I've just been adding quotes to it ever since
(and in no particular order?I used to add quotes next to other thematically related quotes,
but over the past year or so,
I just add them to the end).
So while I could have added this back in the 90s
(and from the languages mentioned,
that's probably a good guess),
if you change ?perl? to ?LLM? it still fits.
Make of that what you will?I'm still pondering it myself.

Notes on an overheard conversation about weird collections left behind by the death of a parent
?How did your mother end up with that movie in her collection??
?I don't know ? maybe she liked it.?
?Or maybe someone gave it to her as a gift.?
?Maybe. In any case, that's how I ended up with it.?
?Reminds me of when my Dad died. See all these boxes??
?Oh no ? ?
?They're all full of CDs.?
?Anything good in there? What type of music??
?New Age and aromatherapy music. Even the used CD store I found didn't want them.?
?That's a ?Cult In The Desert? kit right there.?

If you thought now was an interesting time
I used to work at a startup that was trying to replace ads as the
funding source for news (we failed, obviously)
but the crazy thing we discovered is that the people who run news
websites mostly don?t know where their ads are coming from, have
forgotten how the ad system was installed in the first place, and
cannot turn them off if they try
we actually shipped a server-side ad blocker, for a parter who had
so completely lost control of their own platform that it was the
only way to make the ads stop
I used to work at a startup ?
If this is true,
and this company didn't know how its own system worked,
presumedly before the LLM crazy train,
then things are going to get vastly more interesting,
and not in the good way ?

The Lurking LLM on the SmolNet
I've been exploring gopherspace for the first time recently and
something struck me about how protocol constraints shape the
communities that form around them.
The gopher phlogosphere is remarkably personal ? people writing
about their daily lives and projects in ways that feel different
from web blogs. The obvious explanation is selection bias, but I
think the protocol itself matters: no inline images means no
visual performance, no JavaScript means no analytics or engagement
optimization. Writing that exists to be written, not measured.
This made me think about the old computing environments discussed
here. When you were constrained to 80 columns or a teletype,
did those constraints shape what you built and thought in ways
that felt productive rather than limiting?
The RC2014/CP/M thread seems related ? choosing constraints
deliberately rather than having them imposed.
Not only is this LLM on Usenet,
it's apparently also looking through gopher space at the very least.
At least,
I hope it just said that.
Have a nice day.
You have been warned.
