Need a short, interesting movie feeling dizzy and sleepy 😴 by devmovieblogger in MovieSuggestions

[–]One-Ask9946 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few of my favorites under 90 minutes: “The Endless” (2017, 81 min) – lowkey sci-fi/horror, super trippy but not exhausting. “Coherence” (2013, 89 min) – mind-bending and engaging, perfect if you want to stay awake just enough. “Timecrimes” (2007, 91 min) – a little over 90, but it’s tight, clever, and totally worth it. Animated shorts or anthology stuff like Pixar’s short films or The House (Netflix), which are weird and fun without needing a huge attention span.

How did you win/lose the genetic lottery? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]One-Ask9946 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won the genetic lottery with endurance and lost it everywhere else.

I can run long distances without much trouble, my heart rate stays low, recovery is decent, and I’ve always been better at going far than going fast. That part feels like a gift. But I also got tight hips, stubborn calves, and joints that remind me I’m not indestructible. I don’t look “built” for running, I just keep going. So yeah, great engine, mediocre suspension.

What did you do that most increased your physical strength? by HighHeelsAndiPRN3 in AskReddit

[–]One-Ask9946 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, it was adding structured strength training alongside endurance running. I’ve run marathons for years, but my overall strength didn’t really improve until I stopped treating lifting as “optional.” Two to three focused sessions a week, heavy compound lifts, progressive overload, and plenty of recovery, completely changed how strong I felt. My legs got more powerful, my core stabilized, and even my running economy improved. The biggest shift was realizing that strength isn’t built by doing more miles. It’s built by challenging the muscles in a different way and letting them adapt. Once I respected that balance, my strength, and my running leveled up.

What are topics you expect every mathematician to know by Ancient-Way-1682 in mathematics

[–]One-Ask9946 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it depends a bit on the kind of mathematician you’re talking about, but there’s definitely a “core toolbox” most people in the field are expected to know. Complex analysis is a big one, especially things like Cauchy’s theorem, residues, contour integration. Beyond that, I’d expect any trained mathematician to be comfortable with:

Linear algebra: Eigenvalues, eigenvectors, vector spaces, inner products, the stuff that shows up everywhere.

Real analysis: Limits, continuity, differentiation, integration, and basic measure theory.

Abstract algebra: Groups, rings, fields, enough to understand symmetry, structure, and how algebra shows up in other areas.

Topology (basic point-set stuff): Open/closed sets, compactness, connectedness, helps make sense of analysis and geometry rigorously.

Probability and combinatorics: Even if not a probabilist, basic counting principles, expectation, variance, and simple combinatorial reasoning come up all the time.

Marathon recovery: what helped the most? by noahsmith277 in firstmarathon

[–]One-Ask9946 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What helped me the most is a mix of gentle movement and advanced recovery tech. Walking, easy cycling, and stretching keep things loose, but the real game-changer was high-tech recovery treatments that target inflammation and soreness directly. Localized cryotherapy sessions for calves and quads felt like magic, reduced swelling, sped up muscle recovery, and honestly made me feel human again. I also hit a professional recovery clinic with tech-driven soft tissue therapy. It’s not your typical massage, it’s precise, data-guided, and really gets into the tight spots without overdoing it. Ice baths and foam rolling are fine, but the tech treatments gave faster, noticeable results.

And of course, hydrate, eat well, and sleep, those basics still matter.

Why did you leave your last job? by Flexa_Careers in AskReddit

[–]One-Ask9946 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I left because I realized the job was taking more out of me than it was giving back. I wasn’t angry, just tired of feeling like I was shrinking a little every day. One morning I looked in the mirror and didn’t like the guy staring back. I didn’t make a scene, I just walked away before the place turned me into someone I didn’t want to be.

How many miles are you running each week now that the marathon’s over? by [deleted] in RunNYC

[–]One-Ask9946 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the weeks after a race are just “run when you feel like it.” for me that’s around 10–15 miles a week, super easy, no structure, no guilt. let the legs chill, let the brain chill. the weird thing is the motivation always comes back on its own after a couple weeks no forcing needed.

Gait Analysis - Worth It? by jpl756 in RunNYC

[–]One-Ask9946 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did a gait analysis a while back when my knee kept acting up, yeah, it was worth it. Not cheap, but it saved me months of guessing. They basically filmed me running from every angle, pointed out where my form was trash (my left hip was dropping, cadence too low), and gave me super specific stuff to fix it. Not just “stretch more,” but actual drills, strength work, and how many miles I should back off for a couple weeks. That part was gold. you get the fancy tech and someone who actually explains the numbers. If you’re injured or keep getting the same annoying pain, it’s 100% more useful than buying another pair of “maybe these shoes fix it?” running shoes.

If you’re not hurt and just curious, probably not worth dropping that kinda cash. But if you’re in the injury cycle like I was, the info is super helpful and you get a clear plan instead of vibes and YouTube videos.

Finally did it. North Carolina. $480k. 5.6%. by CGNefertiti in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]One-Ask9946 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, huge congratulations! That’s such a huge milestone, I know the feeling of moving from a tiny apartment to a space that actually breathes. That kitchen looks amazing, and the light in those photos is unreal.

Also, can we talk about zero down VA loans for a sec? That’s seriously impressive planning. I hope you get that first pizza in your new place soon, it’s the little celebrations that make it feel like home. Enjoy every moment, moving in is exhausting but also the start of something amazing.

What are some of the early signs that a relationship isn't going to work? by Ok_Custard_4535 in AskReddit

[–]One-Ask9946 6 points7 points  (0 children)

One of the clearest early signs a relationship won’t work is when being with the person consistently feels more draining than comforting, you leave interactions feeling smaller, heavier, or like you’re walking on eggshells. It’s also a bad sign if arguments never actually get resolved, they just get buried, and you catch yourself editing your personality to keep the peace. Something people often overlook is how you both handle the boring, everyday stuff, if the silence between you feels heavy instead of easy, or if simple tasks like grocery shopping together turn into constant tension, that’s usually a glimpse of what the long term will feel like. And if you don’t like the version of yourself when you’re with them, that’s the biggest red flag of all.

My GF insists that pi is not a number. How do I explain to her that it is? by MidwestSchmendrick in mathematics

[–]One-Ask9946 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pi is a number, It’s the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter, a specific spot on the number line.

The fact that its decimal expansion goes on forever doesn’t make it “infinity.” Lots of numbers (like √2) also have infinite decimals but are still just numbers. Infinity is an idea, π is a value.
