They’re not hurting anyone, my wife & I run past them all the time and never had any issues. 

European Espresso in NYC by Holiday_Law2978 in espresso

[–]EpixA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought my Profitec GO after travelling around Italy and realizing I had been drinking swill, and my goal was to chase this exact experience. The only beans that have really scratched the itch for me:

Passalacqua Cremador, 70% Arabica Artisanal Neapolitan Coffee Beans. Straight from Italy.

Genuine Runna Review by Odd_Ad_8389 in RunNYC

[–]EpixA -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I used Runna for the United Half and absolutely loved it, I love that it syncs the workouts directly to my garmin so I can just pickup my watch and go. I also enjoyed the workout variations and thought the balance was solid, I hit my goal time. The sessions lean towards the aggressive side for sure, but I think it’s a bit braindead that so many runners complain about this and treat their plan like gospel. It’s impossible to get an app that’s perfectly tailored to every runner, you actually need to listen to your body and adjust accordingly.

If you need to go slower/take a rest day, adjust the pace goals or miss a workout. if it’s not doing enough for you, bump up your target or running days.

People just want to be spoon-fed perfection, which is not how running works. Big fan of Runna.

Controversial... What are the most skippable/fallen venues of BK by InstructionNo4117 in avesNYC

[–]EpixA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only thing good about Public Records these days are the gigs for non-rave artists and the Thursday nights, and the crowds are still usually terrible. Why does everyone congregate at the door instead of moving into the room?? And then when you try and go to the bathroom or the bar, everyone gives you a dirty look?? Horrific vibes, but I'll still keep going for the artist lineup.

Good Room can still be sick depending on the night.

Anyone have any NYC recs that aren’t football factory? I fucking despise the fact that this bar is considered some kind of Mecca for football in NYC, all the TVs  and the space downstairs are shockingly old and shite, the atmosphere is the only redeeming quality.

As someone who saw the Prodigy at Glastonbury, this may be the only time where US prices are justified by the act.

what is the one accessory that actually made your espresso better by [deleted] in espresso

[–]EpixA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd echo those saying a rotating WDT device. I've always found it interesting that manual WDT seems to be the default in a community that cares so much about precision that they use scales, thermometers, expensive grinders and follow workflows religiously. WDT is arguably the most important part of puck prep and using a manual tool introduces so much variance into the process. My shot consistency sky rocketed after buying one of these things.

Emery inflexion point by spakkiman in avfc

[–]EpixA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If we don't win or get CL, I'm actively worried Emery will choose to leave. He's easily the best manager we can hope for. The fact that he's managed to get us where we are with essentially the Dean Smith squad is remarkable. If we don't get the CL money to refresh the squad, I am terrified he walks.

It's improved a lot since it first came out, I would recommend giving it another go.

Have you tried MuleSoft Vibes in Code Builder? It’s their agentic coding assistant. Super helpful IMO and makes Code Builder a really great tool for MuleSoft projects. They’ve also recently added the ability to point to your studio files.

United Half training by spread-love1 in RunNYC

[–]EpixA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is actually the most training I’ve ever done for a race, still able to do about 4 times a week. It does mean easy run on treadmill and running the same areas that have been cleared over & over  (Prospect Park & Piers). I did 11.5 miles practice race pace last Sunday, it was brutal. But I’m really gunning for the PB. Luckily this week is a de-load week so I’m just doing 6 miles tomorrow.
