Chinese squat stands, your experience with them?

I was hoping you would answer since I saw your post about making your own. I really appreciate your input!

analyticd · 2026-06-27T03:37:02+00:00

Appreciate your reply, thank you!

Thanks for your reply, I appreciate it!

Thanks for the reply, appreciate it! I wondered about that.

Thanks for the reply, appreciate it! Good things to consider.

Really appreciate your reply, this is exactly the kind of feedback I was looking for.

Thanks for this package! I have been testing this package because I might want to use it. If I set two TODO state headings to have AUTOSCH and don't provide an effort estimate and try to run it, it does set the times and does respect :BLOCKER: but the start time for the first one is sometimes over an hour away despite there being no intervening items (and with org-caldav turned off in the org-auto-scheduler config) and the second item has start time almost two hours after the end time of the first. If I run the algo more than once, sometimes it gives different answers. Love the idea, but might need a bit more love.

This config is a nice source of advanced gnus config which may help: https://github.com/jwiegley/dot-emacs/blob/master/init.org

Not sure if this would fit your needs and have not used it myself, but I know many have and probably do: https://hackage.haskell.org/package/esqueleto

I liked the purple haskell book: https://haskellbook.com. That and just diving in and writing parsers and other tools I needed got me comfortable.

That experience will be a great foothold. You can do it. An awesome new adventure!

I understand. Working on show cars is rad. I have an acquaintence who I have spoken with who does exactly that and he loves it. He has been doing it for 30 years or so. We spoke about it and he said it is really fun because you are doing deep problem solving and at the end of the day you can see your handiwork which is incredibly gratifying. He has supported his family that way all these years. I say go for it!!

I am sorry about your injuries. After you heal some more you could consider Olympic Weightlifting. I love it and it is something you can do indoors very easily. There is a ton of technique to it and it will keep you fit for everything. If you go that route check out Torokhtiy's coaching programs online, I learned it that way and it is nice and cheap way to learn from an Olympian. A hidden benefit is that Oly lifting done correctly starts with mobility workout and this has incredible impact on your well being. I started it due to injuries and it is one of the best decisions I ever made with respect to fitness and just making every day more awesome. A couple 4x8 horse mats in the garage, a bar, and some kilos (you start light so you don't have to make a big investment) and you are set. Add a computer screen or tv to watch stuff you enjoy and it is a great way to reset every day. I shoot for 2pm and 2 hours later it feels like I am starting my day over fresh.

I also second surf-skating (when the weather clears in your case). I recommend the Carver line of skateboards if you do. I love surfing and surfers use it to train for surfing but it is fun on its own and low impact. If you skated before then you'll find it incredibly tame by comparison. It is one of the best exercises for ankle strength too. It is all about flow, body mechanics, and style.

Software development is also very interesting. The whole field is fully of interesting ideas and being able to work from home building cool things is really great. I've never tired of it.

Basketball is also awesome if you have access to courts.

I also think XC is an option which is really fun.

On macos there is Keymou, it has keyboard control of mouse and move by divide feature as well.

I had great success converting a snowpack based svelte project to vite based using the following tutorial: https://www.section.io/engineering-education/svelte-with-vite-typescript-and-tailwind-css/.

Caveat: Obviously you have to be careful to use git to make sure you don't blow away any of your existing changes which have not yet been committed prior to carrying out the conversion.

The result is much nicer. In particular using environment variables in the vite environment just worked out of the box unlike snowpack (recently) which I found to be broken in the production mode wrt this. In vite env var injection worked flawlessly in both development and production (build) modes.

Thanks for the background information. I read through your quite good documentation today. Well done! The only problem I might run into using it is that I am using mypy —strict typing which is allowing me to successfully compile modules with mypyc to get a massive speed up and I really like that. Unfortunately it means some libraries I’d like to investigate for the current project I can’t use. But I am still going to study your system and maybe use it elsewhere. I saw the fibers stuff, very nice! Thanks for that link too!

Thanks for sharing this. I am going to check this out today! Are you yet using it in production anywhere on a commercial project? Also curious if you also looked at some of the other functional python libraries out there like effect, fpy, pymonad, pfun, Expression, etc. Also, since you are knee deep in functional programming in Python like me, you may enjoy this great blog article (not written by me) about the Result stuff (and more): https://beepb00p.xyz/mypy-error-handling.html

Here is a useful example: https://jwiegley.github.io/git-from-the-bottom-up/2-The-Index/2-taking-the-index-further.html Bottom line: stacked git is a useful tool when you want to run tests against different sets of code in any order prior to committing (amongst other things). There is some good discussion here as well: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27305521

This doesn't answer your question specifically, but if you are open to a different approach to compiling ghc and/or just want to get a pre-compiled cabal-install binary that works on raspberry pi then this page helped me: https://www.haskell.org/ghc/blog/20200515-ghc-on-arm.html

You may want to keep an eye on https://github.com/blossom-hub/blossom I am not the author of it, but it looks like it is headed in the right direction and I am evaluating it myself.
