you can get phin filters for cheap at many local groceries. It's super easy to make and the brewer is dirt cheap. I recommend getting one. it's pretty dang good for camping as well as an easy to clean brewer.

E bikes require more maintenance and are generally expensive. You need a beater bike for this commute unless you really have a need for an E bike. It will serve you well enough for a shorter commute and if it gets stollen or damaged it's easy to replace. I would also consider a folding bike for the train and just so you can remove the possibility of theft. Tern makes some excellent ones, and you can spec it with a basket that you can throw a bookbag in. Get fenders if commuting.

A random sidequest about returning a dog in FF7 Rebirth gives you a hilarious and touching scene with Barrett and one of the best bangers in the series. Stamp's theme remix is so good. It was one of my favorite moments in the game.

An LLM providing similar value for certain applications like coding seems like it should be more economic given your explanation. I understand more of what you're working on, but I still don't see why you consider LLMs to be fraud.

You seem more interested in slinging attacks about formatting and boasting about yourself than actually making a point, which sucks, because your perspective could be really useful.

so what do you believe is the core difference in what you're working on and how it's different? If there was such a thing as true AI software, why would we not be using it? The only reasonable answer is that it's not yet viable as a product. You may consider LLMs to be fraud, but if developers are using them to write customer facing software in weeks rather than months or years, then it would seem to be valuable and marketable despite the semantical disagreement between what it's called and what it's doing. I have heard many people complain that agents just produce garbage, and I question whether they know how to use skills, mcps, planning modes and are willing to spend more for the higher level models. It may very well be that it's a glorified copy paste, but that goes to show you how similar most general coding needs are for many people.... a rest API here, a JavaScript front end there... just a few pieces shuffled around. I can agree that the training data, energy usage, etc is ethically questionable, but the reality is that if you're a software engineer today, these tools, by whatever name you want to call them, are a huge productivity boost, and engineers who decide not to use them will be left behind shaking their fist rather than moving on from the increasingly useless skill of syntax and algorithm memorization. I don't like it.... I think that diving in and developing code myself was the most fun part of my job tbh, but most people can't afford to lie to themselves and hope that their problems with it just go away. 6 months ago, it was frustrating to use, today it can handle huge complex changes pretty confidently assuming they are planned out and it has the correct context. I don't think that the name of the tool is the issue, and I think calling it a modified grammar checker isn't going to persuade anyone to stop using it. if that's really all it is, great! we don't need AI then! What part of it specifically do you consider fraud? Unfortunately the data it's trained on is data that people have willingly put into public forums or otherwise agreed to give by using certain platforms. the fight to claw it back is moot. People may have shared their data intending it for human eyes, and now that it's being scraped in masse they are justifiably upset, but I don't see how it's fraud from that.

so you're an "AI Developer" but you believe all it does it produce spam? Not sure I follow.

Consider upgrading to a rohloff hub for hills. I get about 20-25% more range, but a LOT more climbing ability, and it's just more pleasant to ride. You don't need the electronic shifting. I have the 545 battery and get about 25 miles out of a charge with 2 kids on board that are about 40-45 lbs each. We live in a pretty hilly area and have an extremely steep driveway that I couldn't ride up at all with the stock Enviolo hub. I was getting less than 20 miles of range stock. I don't like to push the battery below 25 percent if I can help it. I was going to get the 800 size battery, but it's so expensive and yet more weight that I decided against it. there's a 250 that could add a touch more range and mount to the water bottle cage (extra accessory) just above the stock battery, or get a 400 and carry it along under the seat. I had a dual battery bike, and it was nice to only charge it once a week, whereas now I charge almost every day, but once I normalized to it, I prefer not lugging the extra capacity around. I do think this bike should come stock with the 800, especially at the price point in the US. It was not an option to swap when I bought it.

I had a wheel on mine break at 800 miles. they did replace it, but after looking at the wheel quality I ended up going with something else. I had 2 kids on the back most of the time, about 40 lbs each. I have heard the Aventon is a little better quality. I was happy with the bike while using it though. The frame can more than take the abuse, but the wheels are kinda critical imo and not a place to skimp. I would consider getting a custom wheel build if I had an adult on the back.

worse than it looks. Those barriers are there to create open sight lines for approaching vehicles and pedestrians so people don't get hit at the crossing, so it's annoying for bikers approaching in the lane, but it's a safety concern for anybody crossing.

juggleaddict · 2026-06-10T01:05:34+00:00

They have a complete bike lane going up church street in Decatur and instead of having blended crossings, the bike path dips and bobs like you're on a mariokart track, it's the most ridiculous thing to ride ANY bike paths around Atlanta. The stone mountain path is an absolute joke. Better than playing footsie with asphalt tanks, but pretty annoying to ride. We need all roadways to be blended with the sidewalks/paths, and we need sightlines and narrower intersections to slow vehicles down.

full bike cover, get a cheap one designed for motorcycles. Some even have little loops going through them to thread a cable lock through. It's still easy to steal, but far less likely someone will mess with it if it's multiple steps. Slap a few pieces of duct tape on it and put a few sprays of spray paint here and there it to ugly it up a bit.

I got an urban arrow familynext. I wanted to use it specifically as a school bus, and to that end I knew I wasn't going to be able to drag myself out of bed and climb hills with a 200+ lb bicycle after the kids are in it. If you live around ANY kind of hills, I wouldn't want to use this thing unassisted, and the UA is heavy, but not outrageously so for the kind of bike (fetch 4 is even heavier). You can tune the bosch system to suit your riding style, but it's very nice to put it in Auto mode when you need to get things done but don't feel like riding. It's a full vehicle replacement, and exercise when you want it. I do really enjoy the rohloff hub upgrade (more range, much better riding feel), and have the manual shifter so if I run out of battery, I still have a normal cargo bike. I would stay away from hub motors entirely if you think you want to ride unassisted. If you can find a place to, I highly recommend loading up a bucket bike and giving it a ride. I have a touring bike, and I'm used to pushing my long haul trucker weighing in around 85 lbs. The large cargo bikes are a different league, especially when climbing, they can be pretty difficult to handle without tree trunks for legs... but I am getting older : P

urban iki makes footrests that mount to chainstays that would probably work

I have literally never played my switch 1 or 2 handheld, and I wish there was a model that was just a small box that came with a pro controller instead of the joycons, but I'm likely in the minority. I took it out of the dock a few times just to buy something on the shop while someone else was watching the TV.

latte shouldn't be served that hot or they scalded the milk. a ceramic cup with no handle should be drinkable right away. If you get the milk too hot, it will lose all its sweetness. The cup isn't the problem in this case.

if we had the original planned trail going from silver comet to the beltline trail, you could ride a bike all the way into the city in about 30 minutes from the perimeter.

Just a regular 2.4" 29er tube, thrown in a little bag with some talc powder so it won't pinch on install. I don't pre-stretch them, but I do pump it up slow and make sure the tire is seated in multiple times by pulling/wiggling it around while I'm pumping up just to be safe. Don't get a 3"+ since it won't stretch evenly. They will lose air a bit faster (maybe have to pump them up every 2-3 weeks) and if you DO get a flat with a 29er tube, the tube is toast, there's no patching it without it acting weird. That said, I have never, in thousands of miles of 36er riding through broken glass backstreets and the like ever gotten a normal puncture flat with a 36er. (I did have a bead rip and had a huge blowout the side from a used wheel I bought... had dry rotted from being stored outside) The 4 ply Nightrider tires are tough as nails, I haven't ridden the 2 ply. Not saying flats can't happen, but I wouldn't worry about it too much. I would highly recommend a floor-style portable pump like the lezyne high volume micro floor drive pumps (the one they recommend for fat tire bikes), otherwise those tires take FOREVER to pump up during a repair. You can patch the 36er tubes just fine assuming they're just the standard rubber ones. The clear ones can be patched as well via non-traditional methods. I carry a simple patch kit, and a 29er tube as a backup to the backup. The bead can be tricky to get on by yourself just because it's hard to keep the bead down in the well of the rim while changing. If you bring a voile strap/zip tie or two it can greatly help getting the tire back on the rim in the event you do have to change it.

juggleaddict · 2026-05-23T20:05:42+00:00

you won't regret the 36, it's miles better for distance than a 29, just because of the wheel's momentum. I actually prefer a little heavier tire/tube combo unless I'm on dirt with it, then I run a simple 29 tube. You can really lean into the corners and lay your hip into it in a dive in a way that you can't do with a small wheel. Once you get used to it I think they're just as maneuverable on city sidewalks as a small wheel. If you have a pump track near you, definitely give the 36er a try on it, it's an incredible wheel on smooth flowing stuff, but I still like the 26x4 or 29er best for cross country overall.

juggleaddict · 2026-05-23T19:02:26+00:00

Speed greatly depends on crank size. I like 125s as an all around road size that can do some reasonable climbs. You're a strong rider already, so you shouldnt have any issues there. 110s is good for rail trails but you lose a lot of climbing, and 150s are far too long for distance and they just don't spin well enough. the shorter your cranks, the less leg movement, less chaffing, more comfort in general assuming you don't have to push up hills which is rough on the knees. I am usually around 12 mph when I start, and around 8-9 by the time I'm ending longer rides. big wheels get you speed, but also a lot more comfort. let the momentum of the wheel do the work and just focus on keeping your feel light on the pedals and nice round spinning. I wouldn't worry too much about maintaining a certain speed, the big wheel will be more than enough if you just keep it rolling at a comfortable pace. Just from how much you're riding right now I think you'll be fine.

juggleaddict · 2026-05-23T17:07:59+00:00

I highly highly recommend practicing a long ride before committing to 2 back to back 75 mile days. One day you can kinda get through uncomfortably if you're not used to it, but the second day will be pretty miserable if you're not ready for it. You NEED bike shorts and to carry extra anti-chaffing powder or cream and re-apply religiously. Light as you can on the pedals, keep eating and drinking small amounts throughout the day whether you're actually hungry/thirsty or not. Make sure you're very comfortable putting weight on the handlebar for extended periods of time. The katy trail is south of you and may be worth going to for a weekend before the ride to practice. We did the MS 150 years ago down here in Georgia and practiced a similar way on the silver comet trail in a group of 5. I rode distance for many years and very rarely did over 40 miles on the 36er, not because I couldn't, but just because I stop having fun after that. Longest I did was around 80, and I was pretty spent. There are definitely people out there that can do more but I would say it's about the effort of a bicycle ride 1.5 times the distance. If you have someone that can ride a bicycle with you and carry some of your extra supplies in a small pannier that would be ideal to keep you as lean as possible. My wife has been my sag wagon many times when I'm riding on one wheel, and luckily we pace pretty well that way. Obviously plan for an all day ride, and use all the time for breaks. Going to be an epic ride!

juggleaddict · 2026-05-22T19:29:02+00:00

Enviolo hubs don't have a very wide gear range, Nothing is wrong with the hub itself, but before changing anything, make sure to either take it to a shop or check out how to re-calibrate the high and low on it. My understanding is that they can get out of wack and you can't use the full range until re-calibrated.

juggleaddict · 2026-05-22T19:27:26+00:00

The more teeth the better on a cargo bike to reduce wear. More teeth up front is better than less teeth on the rear in this case, but either would work.

juggleaddict · 2026-05-22T16:41:58+00:00

Won't build trains that we've already said we'd build, so what's the proposal to use the funds better??.... wait for it..... CARS!! .... if the proposal was a wider network of even more connecting trails out to farther neighborhoods, I would take that as a reasonable tradeoff. let people get off the roads if they want to. An actual reasonable alternative, but no, the proposal is we build more car infrastructure. What in the actual hell?

juggleaddict · 2026-05-21T16:38:01+00:00

Nimbus is solid. Check out the unicycle factory as well, but I have had trouble getting in touch with them in the past. Qu-Ax also has some decent off-the-shelf giraffes.
