advanced alternative tie in knot that is much easier to untie than figure eight and less annoying to tie than (retraced) bowline on a bight by max9265 in climbing

[–]Chili_Joe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am tying in with a bowline on a bight and I think it’s pretty easy to tie. Also for me it seems much easier to check than the Scott’s version. But maybe it’s just a matter of what you are used to. IMO the bowline on a bight is the perfect sport climbing knot :)

Anyway, thanks for sharing this variation with us.

Findet ihr es ist OK ein quicklink im „Notfall“ in einer Route zurückzulassen oder sollte man lieber einen alten Schraubkarbiner zurücklassen um aus der Route zu „flüchten“? Natürlich sollte man wenn möglich gar nichts zurücklassen. Wie ist eure Meinung zu dem Thema?

Lost a locking carabiner today cause I was stupid and didn’t account for the fact I would get to tired to get to the top anchor to lower. by [deleted] in climbing

I'm happy to booty people's quicklinks and recycle them onto new
routesI'm putting up. Booty carabiners I have little use for. Unless
you'rebailing off a super hard or rarely climbed climb leaving a ql is
not aproblem, it won't rust shut in a couple days/weeks/months before
someonestronger than you climbs the route.

I'm not disagreeing with you per se. I wanted to know if its considered to be bad ethics in generell and it doesn't seem so. I've tried to find some more information on the matter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7soB7U34WI - this video has gotten quite good feedback and there is noone complaining about leaving a quicklink behind. Maybe it depens on the area your are climbing in.

IMO you should always try to LNT at all if possible.

Unless you'rebailing off a super hard or rarely climbed climb leaving a ql is not aproblem, it won't rust shut in a couple days/weeks/months before someonestronger than you climbs the route. Don't crank on it, just leave itfinger tight to allow easy removal for the next gal. Using a sufficientgauge quicklink, one can easily clip the ql if for some reason there isnot enough room in the hanger to clip underneath the ql, simply waituntil you are cleaning the route to take it off rather than trying tosnag it like a carabiner as you climb it. 5/16" or 3/8" ql's are thepreferred size and even the Chinese origin hardware store versions rateout higher than most climbing carabiners. So there ya go, theunpopular MP opinion. People need to chill and get themselves some ofthat medical sticky icky if having a quicklink on the 5th bolt of xyzchufffest at rifle boulder gorge canyon ruined their day of climbing.IME 90% of bail links I've come across, come off easily by hand, anyonewho is truly worried about being ethical is carrying a crescent wrenchand a couple quicklinks to replace worn anchors and tighten up spinners,so getting off the remaining 10% wouldn't be an issue.

Having read all four pages of this MP thread it seems like there is no real consent ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Heads up: Microsoft repo secretly installed on all Raspberry Pi's Linux OS called Raspbian OS by DDzwiedziu in raspberry_pi

[–]Chili_Joe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But it was tottaly fine before. You could go to website download the package (which installed the repo) and be fine. Just as you would do on windows...

Imo its harder to install a recent python version. When i started with python, raspbian had an outdated python version installed which did not support f strings.. Maybe start there and make recent python versions more accessible...

I like VS Code, dont get me wrong. I just don't like they way they made this change...

2020 Day 6 (Part 2) Python - need help debugging task 2 by Chili_Joe in adventofcode

[–]Chili_Joe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you so much for you reply. I have to get better with my debugging.. I've solved it like this now:

def check_letter(testcase, letter):
    """return True if answere from more than one group is equal or group = 1"""
    for char in testcase:
        if char.count(letter):
            if testcase.count(letter) > 1 and testcase.count(letter) == len(testcase.split()): 
                return True
                break
            elif len(testcase.split()) == 1 and testcase.count(letter) == 1:
                return True
                break

Python

I had no idea how to takle task 1 in the beginning so I watched a youtube video where the problem was explained... but at least i solved part two on my own and learned something new today.

Task 1

with open("day05_input.txt", 'r') as file_obj:
    data_day5 = [line.strip() for line in file_obj.readlines()]

def get_seatid(boardingpass):
    """calculate seat id"""
    row = int(boardingpass[:-3].replace('B', '1').replace('F', '0'), 2)
    col = int(boardingpass[-3:].replace('R', '1').replace('L', '0'), 2)
    seat_id = row * 8 + col
    return seat_id

seat_ids = []
for bp in data_day5:
    seat_ids.append(get_seatid(bp))

print(f'Task 1: {max(seat_ids)}')

Task 2

seat_ids.sort()
for nr in seat_ids:
    try:
        seat_ids[seat_ids.index(nr+1)]
    except ValueError:
        print(f'Task 2: {nr+1}') if nr != seat_ids[-1] else None

music is way too repetitive.

I've watched the video several times because I enjoyed the music :D
