Toyota has become the number one auto manufacturer by making middle of the road low risk cars that are dead reliable. Any other auto maker could follow this, but the executives don’t want to follow this simple approach. they push for flashy cars. they push for cheap parts. they prioritize volume over quality.

Similarly Microsoft absolutely could streamline their operating system. What’s stopping them? The decision makers don’t care about this. They want flash AI features ham fistedly shoe horned into the ever shittier pile of tech debt. Anyone could say I want to be a manager who prioritizes quality and resource management but if the people at the top don’t care resources will not be allocated and the product will not go in that direction.

Honestly which companies does that leave?

how do you secure it in your roof without damaging shingles?

Not necessarily. Spinal disks can bulge to different degrees. It can be a temporary thing, like you’ve been bent over a computer all day, or a major thing like you fell 8 feet on to concrete. The later would probably result in a herniated disk which would likely lead to severe pain. The former can be fixed with light stretching.

Laying on your stomach is good if it reduces your back pain, but variety is the spice of positioning. Lying on your stomach extends your back and for some people with the right type of bulging disks it will bring pain relief. Possibly more so with pushing up on your elbows or for the maximum stretch pushing up on your hands while holding your hips down and arching your back. Just don’t overdo it.
