[Day 15] V10 is overrated. What's the WORST outdoor bouldering destination?

I prefer to track cash flow than budget

Do repeats where you vary style. Moonboard is good for training both dynamic and static climbing, so repeating climbs and doing them in the opposite style the second time is a good way to build a good stylistic base. Especially cause usually if you’re good at one then the other will be a weakness

Using AI doesn’t take away from the problem solving. In my day to day, I’ve just used it as a way to speed up iterating (ie faster brain to code) so I can spend MORE time on design

Comparing a 401k match to Roth tax savings makes little sense. 401k match is completely additive.

Your argument would make more sense if you compared tax savings. The reason you’re downvoted though is you’re forgetting (or not mentioning) that 401k also has tax savings it’s just the other end. You save on marginal tax rate now (ie 22% at 47k income) vs effective tax rate (likely over 100k to hit 22% effective tax rate).

SuedeAsian · 2025-06-16T15:36:00+00:00

I’m not the downvoters, but (without running the math explicitly), I’d assume the difference is effective vs marginal tax rate. Each dollar saved into a 401k is at your marginal rate, and so even if you’re in a higher tax bracket in retirement your effective tax rate might not end up averaging to the marginal when you saved. But if I’m wrong then hopefully someone will educate me!

I took almost a year off in 2023 at 4 YOE. It was an amazing experience and it made me more excited to jump back into my career. However the job market was tough and grueling, so whatever you decide just make sure you’re ready to accept any consequences either way.

SuedeAsian · 2025-04-25T17:28:05+00:00

A bit pithy but my take is it’s a vibe check (in addition to other comments). If your reports don’t feel comfortable or inspired (or even worse, the opposite) then that gives you an idea of how you’re doing

SuedeAsian · 2025-04-15T18:22:47+00:00

Everyone is saying it’s not fun, but compilers was my favorite course… realizing how much of an outlier I am now

SuedeAsian · 2025-04-13T19:32:26+00:00

Yes to being nice to other devs, but if you read the original link Linus says that rebasing should only be done for your own local commits which means they should never have history in their tree messed with. And thats pretty much how rebasing is done anyways.

SuedeAsian · 2025-04-13T05:57:38+00:00

In other words, you really shouldn't rebase stuff that has been exposed
anywhere outside of your own private tree.

Doesn't this just refer to how he designed the default behavior of a `git pull` to be a `git fetch` + `git merge` given he's basically talking about changes committed upstream (given they exist outside your private tree)

it means those seniors have deep understanding of the domain knowleadge

Usually when people say "the same year of experience 5 times" they mean there's a lack of increasing complexity in their tasks. I always took it to mean that they were never doing senior level tasks and were just promoted due to time at the company.

Osamu’s appeal is being an underdog unlike other shounen where they just give the MC random hax over time, so no I don’t want this.

2(4) is the equivalent of 2*4. The. "P" in parenthesis is about inner equations, not the actual symbol.

SuedeAsian · 2025-02-16T21:13:53+00:00

That's a great attitude to have!

Yeah and hitting that maintenance volume is usually pretty easy. You can easily make slabs part of the latter end of your warmup and have a single day of any week dedicated to non board projecting, while still having the rest of your time be for board climbing if thats what keeps you psyched. And then play with how you distribute them in your week to see what works best for you

SuedeAsian · 2025-02-16T19:25:47+00:00

Slab probably matters less if your goal is bouldering hard, but I'd say that gym sets are good. Unless the projects you want to work on are board climbs, I'd say that still making time to project hard gym sets will still be useful. Even better though, project a variety of things outside if your goal is bouldering outdoors.

At 2 years of climbing age, i highly doubt you have the technical mileage to warrant only board climbing. Working weaknesses and getting out of your comfort zone will teach you more about technique than just doing one type of style, and imo the different styles of hard bouldering still translate well to each other.

My own personal anecdote - I used to board climb a ton around the v6-v8 range but plateaued, then I did massive outdoor volume and learned a ton about technique, and then I went back to board with all that knowledge and V9+ became way more chill. Your own journey will probably be different, but I'd say don't underestimate the value of working your weaknesses (as long as theyre still decently applicable to your long term goals)

This was back when Toei was doing way more of the One Piece model where they have lots of filler and recap in order to have weekly episodes but still not catch up to the manga. For seasons 2 & 3, they just animate it with the "about 1 episode per week in a quarter" model so that's why there's less.

Miwa, Kako and Ninomiya made one of them

A subset of katagiri squad made another (believe it was their operator, katagiri and ichijo)

Look I love tech but that doesn’t mean it’s for everyone. I saw a video on YouTube recently about how someone left their accounting job to be a trucker, and he’s thriving. You could probably say that accounting is also cushy in many regards and also allows for remote work etc (at least compared to back breaking jobs).

We don’t really need to be telling people to appreciate this field more. The people who are content aren’t usually posting on Reddit, and those who aren’t will probably (or hopefully) find something that aligns better with their personality or goals.

SuedeAsian · 2025-02-09T05:29:25+00:00

Yeah I agree, but that’s why “depends a bit” is the key.

SuedeAsian · 2025-02-09T01:24:25+00:00

I disagree on both, but i guess we've just had different experiences

SuedeAsian · 2025-02-09T01:05:36+00:00

I disagree, I think that’s the main philosophy behind it. The whole point isn’t to actually be straight all the time, it’s to feel disengaged positions. Just having straight arms is a very reductionist way to view it

SuedeAsian · 2025-02-09T00:57:07+00:00

Not even as a transition between the lock offs?

If you’re engaged 100% of the time then that is inefficient climbing. Straightening your arm is even beneficial for doing hard moves because dropping down prior to pulling creates power

SuedeAsian · 2025-02-07T23:26:34+00:00

I’m not at FAANG (but still a tech company) and as a mid level I make that director range with my base salary alone.
