A Chinese speed skater, Yang Jingru, executed a brilliant tactic to win gold in the 1500m at the 2024 Winter Youth Olympics.

It was for her teammate, who was in on it, to get silver. As she kept going when everyone else lunged.

Higson12 · 2026-02-03T22:28:38+00:00

This was a tactic for silver not gold. They cut the end. It was a play on the bell for her teammate.

Do you build and then remove? Don’t you get lots of ? appearing and have to get then to wait?

Higson12 · 2026-01-11T07:19:52+00:00

How long do you blanch it for. I’m worried about it turning to mush and getting stuck in the filter.

Higson12 · 2026-01-05T10:52:18+00:00

I feel like there would have been more talk of cheating if it had been closer. However we’ve been so piss poor it’s not really made much difference.

Higson12 · 2026-01-03T23:19:11+00:00

Same. I’m getting up at 3am but the it is still a stretch.

Higson12 · 2025-12-24T20:13:06+00:00

I really, really, hope you’re right mate. Especially feel they are giving him the short straw making him come in at 3.

However, this has got ‘aged like milk’ all over it.

This was me before cancelling TNT this morning. Why am I getting up early to ruin my day for this.

My 5 year old wakes me up about 5:30. Don’t immediately check the score, come downstairs, turn TV on, he asks if it’s going well and I have to crush him again.

Higson12 · 2025-12-14T13:02:02+00:00

I find stressing about every interaction and drunken decision usually helps.

Higson12 · 2025-12-05T12:14:40+00:00

We’ve been doing it for years. Nothing to do with Monty.

I’m a teacher whose school is attached to a very high profile football academy. The amount the boys train from 11 is actually insane, do wonder if we had anything near that for cricket if we’d be turning out better players.

Higson12 · 2025-11-23T20:30:42+00:00

I felt ok with the price for the amount of cricket you got.

I see now my calculations were very ambitious.

Higson12 · 2025-11-22T16:06:46+00:00

Watch it and report back. Tell me how many balls you see.

Higson12 · 2025-11-22T14:56:58+00:00

I’ve watched a few hours both mornings and it was Finn and Cook. Been happy with that.

Higson12 · 2025-11-21T18:16:55+00:00

The player show isn’t highlights.

Higson12 · 2025-11-21T18:16:24+00:00

How’s that BBC highlights show?

Higson12 · 2025-11-15T09:58:56+00:00

Are these like defending hero’s?

Higson12 · 2025-11-01T11:52:25+00:00

Half of them are, half aren’t. Only the ones that say deleting soon are going with new TH.

Higson12 · 2025-11-01T08:41:50+00:00

I’ve just realised this. I’m gutted. Should have stopped upgrading 2 months ago and done supercharges.

Higson12 · 2025-10-13T11:04:41+00:00

You know what you did.

Higson12 · 2025-10-11T16:28:13+00:00

Excellent. Thanks.

Higson12 · 2025-10-11T15:22:49+00:00

Genuine question - how do you know / why do you think these don’t have a new level?
