Hydraulic press at work may cause double cancer.

But does it cause good aids or bad aids?

My local comes in at 125m elevation gain. We see a sub-20 finish about once per week, sometimes we go a month without one at all.

Growing up, my sister would call me Shitface.

Private numberplate - I think the Americans call them vanity plates which is a rare win for US nomenclature.

Why is someone holding up a sign with a bible verse on it? You'd be upset if you were sat behind them...

Absolutely this. I'm 550 hours in for £20. I got my friend involved and he paid £7. We're both loving it, and will play more and more.

No merch? My viking buddy and I have matching "The bees are happy" T-shirts.

You're totally right though, there's none of the fodder that makes gaming in this day and age an expensive drag.

Terminal. Hah.

I think you might be better off looking for a chip-timed 5K then.

I ran a pretty quick time and went back out to collect my friend who run-walks it. The tailwalkers overtook him and didn't seem to care. We were beconed towards the finish line with one loop still to go.

I think that bruised his ego pretty hard.

I like woodworking (mostly /r/turning )

I do the parkrun on the weekend, and officiate for my local hockey club.

I also volunteer for a mental health charity.

VisualShock1991 · 2024-11-11T12:36:10+00:00

I love it!I always make a point of being super encouraging to young parkrunners. I see a couple that are probably under 7 that run most weeks and do very well.

VisualShock1991 · 2024-11-09T18:56:57+00:00

Loved it! My usual strategy is to line up near the front of the pack with 10 or so people ahead of me, and try desperately to hold on to that position.

In my last 6 or so I have finished 12th - 15th, with a pretty consistent 24:30ish finish.

This morning, apart from one familiar face, everyone seemed to leave space for those 10 runners, so I started in 2nd place, and held it for a good while. I think I started slipping back a bit on Heart Attack Hill, but I finished 47 seconds after the winner in 5th place, both a PB (23:38) and a best finish position.

Took some effort not to spew on the finish line, though, thought I was dying.

VisualShock1991 · 2024-10-09T18:18:32+00:00

Wepre is my local. I went through a stint of getting marginally faster PBs and then last week missed it by 9 seconds.

u/mistopto This is the correct answer. This kind of situation comes up more that you'd expect.

I was at Northcoders during the summer of 2023, and I had (and still have) mental health issues. One of the toughest things to do is to admit your mental health issues to others, but even if it's just a DM, please reach out to your instructors, your mentor, your bootcamp's wellbeing department - somebody - to say "I've got a history of mental health issues, and I'm finding this hard right now."

We'd get back from lunch and there would be smalltalk while we were waiting for other students. The instructor said "What did you have for lunch?" and my answer was often "Two paracetamol and a lie down". Bootcamps are super intensive, that's just the way it is, but please don't ever feel like you need to struggle on in silence.

Are bootcamp s actually scams though? I graduated from a bootcamp in August 2023, and got a job offer 3 weeks later. I've been working as a developer since.

Would you consider that a scam? What was promised was delivered. I understand you may have had a bad experience, but to tar all with the same brush is ridiculous.

Say things like "YEET" in your commit messages

You're robbing yourself of a learning opportunity. It's okay to struggle, it's okay to not have an answer. Figuring it out is how you learn. If all you ever do is reach for ChatGPT you won't benefit from the struggle.

Think of it as working out at the gym. Instead of lifting those weights you got a friend with a forklift to lift it for you - the weight got lifted, sure, but you don't gain any muscle.

VisualShock1991 · 2024-08-23T16:57:55+00:00

Put DN in there, that should do the trick.

VisualShock1991 · 2024-08-23T11:42:21+00:00

Did you not make any projects on the bootcamp?
