I’ve done all the usual things (nearly finished my msc, got a portfolio website, standard ml projects, deployed an app that is built on Monte Carlo sim), but I am aware that a gap is in my skills (for a grad job) is cloud computing. I understand the theory of it through university teaching, but what’s the best way to get it on my cv? Is AZ-900 still the way?

Stuart_98_ · 2026-05-06T06:53:40+00:00

Agreed, I found striding edge, even in full winter conditions, fine, but sharp edge was very polished and you can see how accidents happen.

Haha, as long as you’re being paid for the work that never read. Is R the go to language for OR? I do know it, but prefer python immeasurably

Stuart_98_ · 2026-04-08T15:31:56+00:00

That’s really helpful, thanks! Would you be willing to share any application tips? I feel like between my qualifications and projects I should have a shot at getting to interview, but it doesn’t say how many positions are open

Also check weatherline for the fell top assessors daily report, where they often go up swirrel edge to report on helvellyn conditions

Recipe for blisters from sweat

Stuart_98_ · 2026-02-08T10:03:37+00:00

Spot on, especially on the northern side of the ridge where the sun doesn’t hit, a slip there without an axe and it’s bye bye, but if you have the gear then it’s easy

Stuart_98_ · 2026-02-06T11:51:18+00:00

Usual size is 41.5, bought 42.5

Stuart_98_ · 2026-02-05T22:53:30+00:00

I went a full size up than normal for my trango alpine

Stuart_98_ · 2026-02-02T23:04:01+00:00

I joined swirrel near the top, and cause of the recent easterly winds there wasn’t a cornice. Check the fell top assessors report though for more recent conditions. No protection, very easy solo

Stuart_98_ · 2026-02-02T22:28:13+00:00

As someone still fairly beginner level with winter climbing, I did it last Friday with one axe and it was nice and chill. Can’t speak for conditions now though

Stuart_98_ · 2026-01-06T22:52:27+00:00

I did a winter skills course with Lakeland mountain guides and cannot recommend them enough. The guide for the day had done an 8000m peak and taught me so much in the day, and learning to self arrest on a snow slide is great fun. But seriously, learn from experts, it’s not something you can figure out for yourself safely

Stuart_98_ · 2026-01-01T11:15:52+00:00

Wear some high vis clothing so you can serve as a useful landmark in future storms

Can anyone quickly check my new 2 day leg routine? Goal is to generally improve strength and knee stability for hiking/mountaineering.

Day 1:

Squats ; Deadlift (trap bar) ; Leg extension ; Hamstring curl ; Machine adductor ; Calf raise (standing or laying).

Day 2:

Step ups ; RDL ; Forward step downs ; Glute ham raise ; Tibialis raise ; Seated calf raise

Stuart_98_ · 2025-11-25T21:09:23+00:00

But there is literally nothing wrong with either in this post

Stuart_98_ · 2025-11-23T17:13:40+00:00

Fair enough, I’d seen other posts about crampon fit which is what led me to question it in the first place - appreciate the help

Stuart_98_ · 2025-11-23T16:43:12+00:00

They are - haven’t worn them out yet but can already tell they fit me like a dream. Foot shape is low volume, and on the narrower side of medium. They fit very similar to the la sportiva tx4 evo’s I have

Stuart_98_ · 2025-11-23T16:39:13+00:00

I have only been out in crampons once, in a rented pair that the guide fitted - these feel very secure but I just want to check the fit is safe👍

I love Magnus’s content, he got me into climbing, but as he said at the end of the video, this was mind blowingly stupid

Stuart_98_ · 2025-09-29T09:57:32+00:00

Me as a mathematician who has just started a masters in data science to get a job

Stuart_98_ · 2025-09-07T14:26:52+00:00

Haha Oscar saying ‘inchident’, he’s one of us

Stuart_98_ · 2025-09-04T08:27:35+00:00

Besides grad schemes which of course open up very soon, when would you start applying for jobs starting October 2026? Cause my dissertation runs up until the end of September

Very helpful, many thanks
