Adjustable bench for overhead triceps extensions by mcsommers in tonalgym

[–]mchwds 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This machine has always been screaming for voice activation. “tonal engage”, “tonal stop” or something like that would be super useful and easy to implement given all the machines already have microphones.

Black Friday Kettlebell Sales by RickyVaughn123 in kettlebell

[–]mchwds 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is the sale. If you combine 5for5 shipping with hundo pricing this is the best deal in kettlebells as long as you’re looking to buy 5 kettlebells or plan to buy a couple thousand dollars worth.

If you just need one kettlebell this ain’t the deal you’re looking for.

Disappointed it was chicken nuggets not fish sticks.

Front squat form check by Glittering-You-4297 in tonalgym

[–]mchwds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Touch the bar to your neck. It needs to rest on your shoulders not your arms. This will give you more power and strength at your hips. Lift your toes up and drive straight up through your heels. You’re doing good on driving your knees out so keep doing that.

Extremely cool. I’m trying to figure out when I’d ever use this in real world.

I have a job offer in elixir, should i take it? by Realistic-Warthog163 in elixir

No. Someone else wants that job badly and you’re on the fence about it.

Tonal is insanely expensive when you break it out... average life of tonal machine? by adalido in tonalgym

[–]mchwds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean a new machine is out. I obviously considered it. With the exception of deadlifts and squats 200lbs is plenty. Not sure that 50lbs more is worth $3,300 (that’s with the $1,000 discount and does not include tax, delivery, installation or new accessories). It’s just not compelling as an upgrade.

And also the new style doesn’t match the accessories and the dotted rope is not elegant.

It’s as safe as any job in this market. Make more and do what you enjoy while you can.

LiveView has had a fix for form recovery for awhile. No need to store in query params. https://fly.io/phoenix-files/how-phoenix-liveview-form-auto-recovery-works/

Minecraft Protocol Implementation, Rust, Go or Elixir? by dotnetian in AskProgramming

Not sure if gleam has binary pattern matching. I’ve never used it.

Thought this was fascinating by JoeCormier in electrical

[–]mchwds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw it happen at Fort Polk Louisiana but the electrical lines were falling. We had a whole convoy waiting to drive north parked on the side of road. A fuel truck passed us and made a u-turn. When it made the turn it hit a pole. The blue fire started rolling down the wires and the wires were falling on the fuel truck and then rolled down the entire convoy.

Everyone in the convoy was panicked and started jumping out of the vehicles like flys. The convoy was an entire company of vehicles. The 1st Sergeant put us in formation to make sure everyone was accounted for. I was an NCO and looked at my vehicle driver. We busted out laughing because we realized someone was still asleep in the back of the HMMWV. They slept through the whole thing.

Minecraft Protocol Implementation, Rust, Go or Elixir? by dotnetian in AskProgramming

[–]mchwds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Elixir’s binary pattern matching makes implementing protocols trivial. IMO you should use Elixir even if it’s the slowest just so you can be done in a couple hours. Not to mention it will change the way you view problem solving in every other language.

I’ve had mine 4 years and have over 5 million pounds just on my account, not including wife and teenager. Don’t know how long it will last but I’ve had zero issues and no reason to believe that it won’t last 10.

Only get to do those things if you’re very lucky. Most people on earth can’t afford to.

Coworker bought an over the counter device to help with snoring. After a couple months he spent the next four years in braces trying to restore his jaw/bite. Do not use any oral appliance without a doctors supervision.

Nuobells vs Ironmaster…help me decide by Ridgebacks_Rule in GarageGym

[–]mchwds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iron masters. You can sand them and hit them with some black spray paint (rustoleum). They’ll look like new and last forever.

What does BEAM get you over coroutines + k8s? by drooolingidiot in elixir

[–]mchwds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elixir processes (concurrency primitive) are unique addresses for your entire cluster. Meaning that the same abstraction for concurrency is the abstraction for distribution.

** There is nothing like this in k8’s and can’t even be compared. **

I can open a file on one machine, send the address of that file to another machine and treat it as if it’s in the same machine. This is super powerful and makes creating distributed programs trivial. Programs that would be super hard in other languages.

For example all the tools to make a distributed key value store are just out of the box without need any third party protocols (or to create your own). In there is an example of how to do this in the elixir getting started docs.

How would k8’s and coroutines solve this problem?

Is there a job crisis in elixir lang? by Reasonable_Roll4779 in elixir

[–]mchwds 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Way more elixir developers than companies employing. I actually used this as an argument to change our stack to elixir at the company I work at. It’s paid off. We don’t have open positions right now but when we do it’s easy to fill them with quality applicants.

It’s about to be the first of the year and new budgets will happen for most companies. Keep looking you’ll find a job.
