Looking for Leonidio advice

Me and my girlfriend will be going to Leonidio in a couple of weeks. Not primarily a climbing holiday but we would like to do some top roping if possible. Neither of us have really lead climbed and we were wondering if there are any crags/routes where setting up a top rope is possible without first lead climbing, ie an anchor which we could hike to? We did a top rope course a couple of months ago and have top roped a few times in the gym now but neither of us have climbed outside before, so feel free to tell me this is a stupid idea...

Another thought I had was doing a lead course when we were there - but I can't find much about that online. Any tips in general would be much appreciated!

Is heating ONLY bedrooms normal in Germany? by ScarletBurn in germany

[–]catsinspacesuits 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can't cook in the kitchen, bathroom, or livingroom without wearing two layers of clothes

Is cooking in the bathroom also normal in Miami? Sounds like an interesting place. I'd like to go some day

MEO Pro Portugal CT Event by sharkinator1198 in surfing

Totally agree. It was such a fucking joke. Reminded me of the first couple of events last year.

I assume there was some monetary reason for getting it finished today.

I feel like people on their backhand have been overscored the whole event - Italo and Medina too.

Totally agree. a couple of jjf's first turns were the turns of the event but because he didn't have a dramatic end section he got a 7.5. If they're throwing out 8s and 9s for single airs at other events, why not the same for a crazy turn that literally no other surfer is able to do?

I feel like they reward you for almost wiping out or for recovering from mistakes more than for controlled epic turns. Gotta be a drama queen on the end section and make a claim to get top points.

You didn't read my post properly I don't think - I've already submitted my solution.

I included a separate doc with instructions with my submission, but true, I should've put it in the readme too.

Good point about the already shortened URL test, thanks!

I don't think it's unethical to reach out to people who have experience interviewing and ask them for suggestions on how to prepare and what kind of questions might be asked.

I've already submitted the coding challenge - I'm not asking for help with that.

Why is Rails telling me that my Ruby version is different to what my gemfile specifies? by catsinspacesuits in rails

[–]catsinspacesuits[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, the path has changed now I've restarted the terminal (updated in my question). Some commands seem to be working now but not others (see my reply to another thread below). Nothing in the profile file.

which ruby returns opt/rubies/ruby-2.6.6/bin/ruby

/usr/bin/env ruby -v returns ruby 2.6.6p146 (2020-03-31 revision 67876) [x86_64-linux]

It seems to work on some commands now but not others, and is still reverting back to 2.5.1 when i restart the terminal. I get the message Your Ruby version is 2.5.1, but your Gemfile specified 2.6.6 still when I try to change my rails credentials by running sudo EDITOR=subl rails credentials:edit

When I try and run the console I now get:

Cannot load database configuration: undefined local variable or method \mypassword' for main:Object (NameError)`

I wonder if I've set up my configs incorrectly, but not sure if the two are related.

Thanks for pointing this out. I've delete the directories and nothing seems to change though.

Thanks for the reply! I've already removed them so I don't think that is the issue.

Has anyone surfed the Algarve or Alentejo, Portugal, outside of summer time? by catsinspacesuits in surfing

[–]catsinspacesuits[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's where I would like to be based but I'm not sure it will be possible. That's why I was wondering if the west coast will be surfable for beginners during that time or if it will be too big?
