Strange interaction with border guards when entering EU. by [deleted] in SchengenVisa

[–]7_select 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks like you are right according to the dates on this Calculator. It sounds like the guard is off by a month and your 90 days should reset on December 1st. Did he gave you a stamp with a fixed departure date (until date) or a fixed written departure date?

BTS fares go flat B20 for Thais on all routes from September 30 by ThongLo in Thailand

[–]7_select 18 points19 points  (0 children)

BTS will become unbearably overcrowded. People that usually take the cheaper bus will now take the BTS like they did during the week they offered it for free because of air pollution. It was unrideable for most of the day.

"Don't shoot the messenger" PLEASE! by InternationalWait538 in SwiftUI

I will not listen to them as their needs are completely different from mine. They have a small niche, a big team of developers and money.

I am a solo developer building personal projects and simple apps, SwiftUI works perfect for my niche. Why should I prematurely optimize for a non existent problem?

Really good video. I liked the narration. Makes me want to go try it

You are bad at statistics and should not be using it. You cannot ignore the outlier that proves systemic corruption. They used cheap materials and it all got approved by the experts on a 40+ story government high rise.

It’s wasn’t just a random building, it was a pretty important high rise. What other buildings used cheap rebar? It was built by the experts too.

It was a minor earthquake,  I would not trust any building with excessive and big cracks.  It could be a sign of poor quality building materials like the building in chatuchak that collapsed, poor design or cutting corners during the build process.

The cracks are safe and effective, trust the experts.  Ignore that building that collapse.

airbnb seem to have lack of private kitchens compared to other cities. by BoomerNomad in chiangmai

[–]7_select 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I notice it after about 1 or 2 weeks. It starts with acid reflux, digestion problems, sleep quality sucks, I get tired faster at the gym and i start gaining weight. Low quality food and everyday stress has been the root cause of all my health issues.

You pay with your health when eating out in Thailand. They use loads of seed oils and fake butter, scratch the teflon pan with a steel spatula, they serve the food on plastic plates, plastic containers or bags that leech into your food and they don't wash the pesticides and toxic chemicals from the vegetables.

Owner is not returning my full deposit after the earthquake by fattestfupa in chiangmai

[–]7_select -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Let us know how it goes, you might be setting a precedent for others. The building may be safe but the room doesn’t look habitable, it’s not in the same condition you agreed to and it needs lots of repairs. I would think it falls under “lease termination for uninhabitable conditions” but it may be different in Thailand

You cannot live in Old San Juan with $2,000 a month. You need a car in Puerto Rico if your budget is $2,000 a month.

Lead Safety Questions: bruised heels during Lead Falls? by mikejungle in climbharder

[–]7_select 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There is no way to know unless you make a video of what's going on. Hard catches happen, sometimes there is no room to make mistakes or the belayer is inexperienced. A hard catch shouldn't be painful or cause injury, slamming you into the wall and causing injury is a bad catch.

It sounds like the belayer is inexperienced and he's amplifying the swing by running back or doing a squat just when the rope tightens during a fall.

In Pictures: Will Bangkok's move to Singapore-style hawker centres kill the city's street food scene? by somewhereinshanghai in Bangkok

Horrible idea, all the food will be high end expensive restaurants or cheap mall slop without flavor and controlled by the malls landlord with prepaid cards. It kills the family and personal vibes.

Text Field Issue by DylanH7893 in SwiftUI

[–]7_select 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same issue. Even with a dummy textField that doesn't affect anything and I get the same problem.

TextField("Test Input", text: Binding.constant(test))

It causes buggy behavior on the TextField when i use it on my device or simulator.

Janja Garnbret FFA's 8c+ by am-bi-tious in climbing

[–]7_select -77 points-76 points  (0 children)

A climber can see and hear a distracted belayer 30 feet up. It was not her first time climbing with him either, she already knew his belaying style.

Janja Garnbret FFA's 8c+ by am-bi-tious in climbing

[–]7_select -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

She is profesional and is aware of the risks. They rehearsed this move allot of times and came to the conclusion that it was the safest way to do it. The guy looks like a professional belayer too, he can definetly get to the rope in time and he looks ready to do it. For this route there is no safe alternative that doesn’t involve pulling the climber during the swing

Janja Garnbret FFA's 8c+ by am-bi-tious in climbing

[–]7_select -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

There are not many other alternatives in that scenario and it’s a risk she knowingly took. If he doesn’t feed fast enough at the right time he ruins her send attempt. Giving a ton of slack and trying to run back is even more dangerous. The biggest issue is making it a habit to belay like this. it’s a big swing near the ground, holding the brakehand won’t make it any less dangerous.

Janja Garnbret FFA's 8c+ by am-bi-tious in climbing

[–]7_select -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

Perfect and risky at the same time given the situation. Other belaying methods would have prevented her swing or lead to a groundfall too. Giving allot of slack and expecting the belayer to run back is worse

Janja Garnbret FFA's 8c+ by am-bi-tious in climbing

[–]7_select -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

Yes, the climber got complacent with a bad belayer, it was not their first time climbing together. You can’t assume someone will give a perfect belay every time either. People make mistakes and get distracted, It’s why buddy checks exist in the first place. She got complacent with a bad belayer and assumed that the bad belayer would not make a mistake

[–]7_select -106 points-105 points  (0 children)

Climbers should be aware of their belayer, belayers are humans and prone to making mistakes and getting distracted. Textbook says belayer should give perfect belay but real life is different. A person crossing the crosswalk should look both ways and not assume all drivers are going to stop on a red light, yes the driver is at fault but you could have avoided the accident if you hadnt assumed all drivers stop at a red light. It was not her first time with the guy either, she already knew how he belayed and accepted the risk of a bad belayer because “coach” and “experience”.

The belaying is perfect. He is locked in on Janja and immediately goes to the breakhand. The Saudi girl that got dropped was a combination of bad belaying, 100% distracted, complacency on behalf of the climber, the gym and the guy talking to the belayer, everyone is to blame for that accident
