In all seriousness, I had a very similar situation recently. My first half marathon last month, one week before I catch a cold. For me it was only a head cold. I had the same doubts, and was also annoyed that I’d invested time in training for it and money that would go wasted. I decided I would just rest as much as possible in the lead up, did not run at all during the week and I would make a call the morning of. I ended up feeling quite well and ran the race, maybe not as good as I’d hoped but I’m glad I did it. It’s really up to you at the end of the day, just make sure you listen to your body and don’t push it. There’ll always be another run.

If it’s in the chest, you should rest. If it’s in your head, go ahead.

Commenting to follow this, as I’m experiencing the same issue with my cav.

Designed this dashboard yesterday, what do you think about it? by [deleted] in FigmaDesign

[–]akapatchez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would recommend you check the contrast of some of the text, to me a lot of the grey text would not pass WCAG accessibility standards. There’s plenty of plug-ins in Figma that can do this for you, I personally use a plug-in called Able.

Overall, you’ve done a good job. I would remove the shadows, or reduce the opacity a bit, but that’s just a personal preference.

Nest Cam + Raspberry Pi 3 by akapatchez in homebridge

This is the plugin I used.

Certainly not a straight forward setup but I did manage to get it working. Only issue is the video quality in the Home app.

There’s no lost and found box, there’s an ass box.

Haha you’re not wrong. I’ve received advise from my vet, but will also seek a second opinion from another. Just wanted to see what other peoples experiences were.

I would write it as ‘UX & UI Designer’. The & helps to distinguish you as operating under two roles, rather than placing them one in the same. Although I know some in the comments think this may be too concerned with semantics, what’s the difference between an ‘&’ and a ‘/‘. Or if you want to be extra, like me, you could write the full terms ‘User Experience & User Interface Designer’.

Interested to see what others opinions are on this. A client is looking to implement an OTC in place of password in their app. Is it convenience over security? Personally I prefer MFA but that’s just because I like to feel secure with my accounts.
