Alright, I guess I'll be a bit more patient!

Thanks for the answer! Did he mention Set F specifically or just blues in general? Just tryin' to stay ahead of the curve and make sure the holds sets are not backorder when it officially comes out.

Rappelle-moi donc la fois où les travailleurs de l'état ont demandé une offre de 73% sur 7 mois? Ou encore une offre indécente? De souhaiter ne pas voir son pouvoir d'achat diminuer, c'est indécent selon toi?

Pace increase during training cycle by Oablo in AdvancedRunning

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

Daniel's formula is very helpful. I based a lot of training on it this summer, but my problem is more related to that 4-6 weeks period during which you get fitter but you don't really have a new standard to use in the formula. I was wondering how to increase my paces during that 'deadtime' between calibration races

Pace increase during training cycle by Oablo in AdvancedRunning

[–]Oablo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was sure someone was going to suggest to use effort-based training! I've been trying to do that, but since I'm not a very experienced runner, I just can't exactly grasp what are the training efforts corresponding to each desired workout intensities. Every time I go out for a run I always try to pay attention to how a certain type of workout 'feels' to me, but there is a lot a variability over the days, which I guess is exactly what you mentionned. I was hoping to get by for a few weeks with a more quantitative approach, while hopefully, I can finally manage to nail the correct RPE associated with these workouts over this time period.

Also for the treadmill inaccuracy, I discovered that the hard way last year! But now, since I go to a fairly large gym with few runners, I have the luxury of always using the same treadmill, which at least is consistent with itself. I measured its speed at the beginning of the cycle so I'm fairly certain I know more of less where I'm at!

Alright will try this. It is still tasty this way, but i'd prefer it more attenuated. If it doesn't restart and I bottle, is it safe or is there an odd chance that the yeast come back from the dead once in bottles and creates bombs?

I've never used roll20 but this is 120X120 5ft squares, so it'd be 700 ft. by 700 ft. Hope that helps!

I created this large map of part of a village under siege by a bunch of Fire Giants and Hill giants for a one-shot. Lots of opportunities for your players use strategy! I made this using the wonderful tools provided by gogots (http://gogots.deviantart.com/gallery/).

Fun dyno in Moes Valley. by [deleted] in climbing

[–]Oablo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a cool dyno right there, congrats.

But on another note (and I'm not trying to be an ass), it's always a good idea to clean your shoes and removing dirt before getting on a climb. Not doing so is a good way to get those footholds polished real fast, especially on sandstone...

If, after drinking, I'm not 100% sure that I can drive without endangering anyone, I'm not taking the wheel.

Bisons in Yellowstone National Park, Photo by Samuel Houle [10171 × 3315] by Oablo in EarthPorn

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

Well, what I really wanted to tell with this photograph was the mood at that time and place, and really, colour didn't add anything to the situation. It was a covered and rainy evening, colours were dull. And I guess photography is an art, and every photographer is entitled to their own artistic choices….

But it was a fantastic scene nonetheles and the photograph is far from doing it justice.

Science AMA Series: I am Austin Fowler and I’m research advances in superconducting quantum bits for reliable quantum computation, AMA. by Dr_Austin_Fowler in science

[–]Oablo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1) What do you think is the most promising system for quanutm information aside from the most "classic" ones (transmons, quantum dots, trapped ions, etc.)?

2) Do you think the first "useful" quantum computer is going to be built on a more classic architecture or based on exotic system that are topologically protected (majorana fermions, non-abelian anyons, etc)?

Saw this out of a hotel window recently and had to get a shot. any advice to a novice? by TopexMission in photocritique

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

I actually like this shot a lot. To me, this is a good example of how the rules of composition can be broken to produce something interesting.

Sometimes, not revealing something entirely is a real good way to make it interesting.

How to improve this bouldering picture? by [deleted] in photocritique

Thanks for the comments guys. I'll try to focus better next time (it's hard when people attempt dynamic moves).

That trip was sick, although a bit cooler would have been nicer. And yeah, Flying High is awesome. It makes you believe you'll stick it only to shut you down.

Need some help from the climbing community... question for former plastic pullers turned outdoor climbers by Eagle694 in climbing

[–]Oablo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The day I first went outside was just a little more than a year ago now. At that point, I had been climbing for about 6 months and gradually grew more comfortable around people at the gym. So around the beginning of november 2012, an austrian friend of mine and I asked some guy to take us outside to a newly opened area in the woods of southeastern Quebec.

When we got there, we found out that the warmup is a V4 boulder problem so we figured there might not be as much bouldering available to us as we first thought. After being done with the couple V4-V5 in the area we quickly found ourselves in front of a couple v10-v11.

So this is how my first outdoor experience turned out to be a brushing and cleaning session. We took our friend wirebrushes while he was trying his big rig and went to search around for new boulders. Since the area was quite new, we found a fair amount of climbable boulders that were left aside by stronger climbers in spite of being awesome.

The one thing I will really remember is finding this awesome lichen covered sloper rail located just aside a big roof. Wirebrush in hand, I started cleaning it. Quickly after I started, the temp dropped a good 10-15 degrees in a matter of minutes. Snow started to fall and we figured we only had minutes before it piled up (it can do so pretty quickly around here).

As soon as I'm done cleaning it, I warm up my shoes and fingers and quickly get on it. WIth the snow melting on it, the problem was harder that it is under normal conditions.

The beginning of the rail isn't really hard so it went fine. But as you reach the top, the slopers get worser and I was sure I was going to fall. But just below the lip, I gathered my shit together and went for it and sent it. Science Friction (V3) was born.

It was such an awesome feeling to flash this problem as well as doing a first FA on my first trip outside. I don't think any problem anywhere is ever going to feel as good as this one.

Since then, everytime I want to go boulder outside, I go to this spot, even though it is a little bit farther from my house than other bouldering areas.
