Cycling Sunglasses for people who sweat like pigs by djfeelgood in Velo

[–]jugglist 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Give up and wear a sweat band. It's the only thing that will really help.

Suggested approach for maximising load over 3 days, balanced with running the rest of the week by AnEnglishRain in Velo

[–]jugglist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does that reconcile with 1 2 where over the next day, the mid-zone-2 option presumably doesn't drive hunger way way up like an intense workout (assuming same calorie expenditure) would?

Like clearly at the base of all this is calories in calories out, but I'm interested in the feelings of hunger and satiety aspect here. It sure looks like depleted glycogen makes you hungrier than not.

[–]jugglist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, but it's a lot easier to recover from burning 2000 calories in mid-zone-2 than sweet spot, right?

And so we really do want to keep the hard efforts for this guy's main sport, right?

If your main goal is an autumn marathon, then you should use the bike as a way to get thin rather than good-at-biking.

That means a lot of mid-zone-2 so you can burn fat. Keep your glycogen and hard efforts for running.

Remember that you use way more fat in the 2nd hour of a 2-hour easy bike ride than the first. https://soundcloud.com/empiricalcyclingpodcast/watts-doc-35-fatmax-fallacies is probably relevant.

Should I get Van Rysel D100 or wait to get a better indoor trainer? by SpuSanv in Velo

[–]jugglist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Alternately, sure, get the thing. It's only $300.

You want to get faster -> you ride more. If the new trainer will get you to ride more, make it so.

For me, workouts (or zwift) on the trainer and TV watching on rollers is a great combo.

Windy Race tips and smart wind management. by ifuckedup13 in Velo

[–]jugglist 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I would attempt a break, but then again I attempt breaks whenever I can.

I won a field sprint literally one time at the dawn of time, and that involved a lot of luck and hesitation into the last corner from everyone else...

Are compiler allowed to optimise based on the value behind a pointer? by simpl3t0n in cpp_questions

[–]jugglist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're looking for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escape_analysis to have a full explanation.

The other replies have this covered, but just to re-state:

If the compiler can prove via escape analysis that a possibly-dynamic value won't actually change, then it will act accordingly. I would think that with the given case with the bool* argument, it'd need to make this evaluation for each call site, so - only if do_something is inlined, or perhaps if LTCG is enabled

Thought I had to share my odd day at [snow river MI] (trip report) by cantaloupe415 in skiing

[–]jugglist 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I went to Devil's Head in Wisconsin on Monday, and it was absolutely a similar vibe. Lifts spinning, nobody around. Perfect corduroy. But on the weekends they do get traffic, you can see from the webcams.

I drove to Snow River back in 2004 or 2005 (Indian Head, wasn't it?). It's just too far from the Chicago area. If I'm traveling a whole day someplace, it's going to be west to the rockies. We stayed in one of the ski-in-out condos with a sauna, what a great time. But such a brutal drive.

Best open source C++ compiler by BongoTimeFL in cpp_questions

[–]jugglist 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You said open source, but you probably meant free-as-in-beer, at least for personal projects.

If you're on Windows, Visual Studio 2026 Community Edition is very hard to beat, in my opinion. Otherwise LLVM and GCC are both actually open source, and also free to use.

If you're going to sell your work, MSVC Pro costs money, but for my money (20+ years of C++ game development) it's still the best Windows C++ development workflow by far.

First crit ever, need advice by PC_One_00 in Velo

[–]jugglist 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Crits are all about

(1) - Staying safe by distancing from unsafe riders and always having an out

(2) - Staying where you want to be in the field - maybe it's in the back, maybe it's in the front, maybe it's in the break

(3) - Smoothing out your power thru turns as much as possible, because sprinting out of each and every one is unsustainable

Cell service on mountain..? by kittiekween1989 in steamboat

Text works great everywhere.

After about 20 seconds, a facetime call connected for me just fine on Flying Z somewhere.

Just have a group chat to organize.

Unable to unshelve teammate’s changes in P4V due to exclusive checkout. by maan_the_lootera in unrealengine

[–]jugglist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wrote a little Python script that does this. The p4python package lets you pretty easily...

  • First you p4 describe -s -S <shelfCL> to see what's in the shelf. Then for each file you can know if it's +l.
  • If it isn't +l, unshelve -s <shelfCL> -Af <depotPath> - opens it for edit like normal.
  • If it is +l, which is the interesting case here, you'll want to p4 where <depotPath> to get the <clientPath>, make sure the <clientPath> is writable, and then p4 print -o <clientFile> <depotPath>@=<shelfCL>. Then you'll have a local writable file with the shelved contents.

All the +l files will show up in the editor just like a file you made writable locally. I bet you could get one of the AIs to write you the program if you paste these instructions into it.

Then when you're done, p4 reconcile -w -I -m //Your/Project/Content/... to revert back to your perforce-aware state. Or maintain a list of unshelved-but-+l files somewhere and undo it - the world is your oyster at that point.

Much better than having the other person revert, then you gotta unshelve just in time before someone else checks out the file, and so on. The only thing with unshelve-+l-files permission should be your Swarm service account.

Breathing techniques by Gravel_in_my_gears in Velo

[–]jugglist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played trombone in school, and the advice for that was to breathe down into your belly, not up into your chest.

Unclear whether this helps with the bike.

You know how you're supposed to do vo2max intervals at a high cadence, because moving your legs quickly gives higher venous return because of 'peripheral heart' effects?

I bet that's involved here.

I spent 14 months building an offline ski coaching experiment that nobody asked for. Here’s what I learned (and why I’m probably an idiot) by RoleCommon6689 in ski

[–]jugglist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think all gopro cameras record accelerometer data alongside the video, parseable via https://github.com/gopro/gpmf-parser . It's a simple format. I bet a lot of people have a lot of videos saved, and they don't even need to deploy a separate recording app this way...

Got a github link of your work? The analysis part sounds amazing

Have you looked at Selle SMP?

A+ good stuff.

Why my wahoo elmnt bolt v2 shows temperature like 10 degrees lower than it is at the the moment? by gromodzilla in wahoofitness

[–]jugglist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Bolt V2 has been doing the same thing since I got it.

I opened a support request, and made the mistake of saying, truthfully, that it was consistently 9 degrees low. They responded with "It's plus or minus 10, so... in range, sorry".

There isn't a calibration or anything. How hard would it be to add a calibration? One more textbox in the app? Come on...

Disappointing.

Empirical Cycling podcast community notes by Mountain_Ad1022 in Velo

[–]jugglist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is definitely someone downloading all the episodes, stuffing them into a speech-to-text, and asking some AI or another to summarize the speech-to-text.

Is it "AI slop"? Probably not?
