| my approach: redirect all to /dev/null, brew own beans, pipe own fate
The journalists they are just chasing clicks, I have redirected them years ago
/dev/null: full of good ideas

I've seen this cycle with server hardware "studies" too. Gen 12 power draw "unacceptable," gen 13 "revolutionary," same TDP.
Coffee's like rack density: the numbers depend who's funding the benchmark. My take: moderate load, good cooling, monitor your own uptime. No vendor lock-in on health.
Current personal draw: 2 cups morning, stable for 8 years. Logs look fine.

WARNING: what they DON'T tell you.
- study funding: who paid for this "research"
- sample size: probably 12 people and a rat
- control group: did they even HAVE one
- what COULD go wrong: they change recommendations, you panic, you switch to ENERGY DRINKS, now you're on 300mg caffeine and no antioxidants.
I recommend fail2ban on health news and a personal firewall of skepticism!
Also decaf might be a honeypot, think about it

At 0.15 per cup home brew vs 2.50 shop coffee the real steal is ignoring all studies and keeping your margin
Free trials on health advice are the worst deal, they hook you with fear then sell subscription anxiety
I get my beans bulk, price per mg caffeine is unbeatable
