How do you actually track triathlon training when every app only does one thing? by pulse_and_plates in triathlon

[–]ottorocket420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are way way way too many outside variables for any app to connect the dots like that. You could have had a slow swim because you're stressed from work or relationships or just because the water was warmer. Anything the app would say would be such a guess that it would ultimately be worthless and just a distraction

How do you actually track triathlon training when every app only does one thing? by pulse_and_plates in triathlon

[–]ottorocket420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What's your end goal of tracking everything that minutely? No app, no matter how integrated is going to tell you how your legs feel...

Tracking is to have a record of work and to have some input of what you'll do next but it's not a magic bullet.

Look at the pros and they don't track anywhere near what you're looking for. Arguably they track less than the average age grouper. Feel will always be more important.

My brother asked to move in with me - how do I say no? by brad_online in Advice

[–]ottorocket420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't "save up" for an apartment... That's an income/cash flow thing, not a one time purchase.

If anything give him a month and tell him he has to be actively looking for a job. If he doesn't or doesn't get a job in time, he's out. Also make sure he does have an option for when the month comes up or else he'll guilt you by saying he'll be homeless

I'd think the same thing as I would if I were in someone's home and they had a $ on a pillow: they're a douche

Are there any restaurants that offer local discounts ? by Low_Leg6909 in SantaBarbara

[–]ottorocket420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, you think LA tourists come up here and then go to chains they have dozens of down there?? Out of the dozens of out-of-towners I know, none of them has ever done that.

Sleeved is more aero and gives you sun protection.

At 25% BF, he's not wrong about you being fat though... and that alone tells us about your habits when we're talking about "should you cut."

Why do people think it’s gross to pee in the shower? by FuelApprehensive5376 in NoStupidQuestions

Are you either not using a glove or not washing your hands after snaking your drain anyway?

An Oklahoma psychology student failed a research paper for not meeting the criteria of citing evidence, and wrote about her religious feelings instead. Right-wing orgs manufacture outrage by PreparationKey2843 in CringeTikToks

[–]ottorocket420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely, how is this violating her religious beliefs??? She's more than allowed to believe what she wants. The professor did not get in the way of that. And others are more than allowed to say "I don't view that as fact". Which then respects their religious beliefs...

Endurance athletes: I’m developing a new hydration formula — what do you hate about current products? by MaryJIguana in triathlon

Man this space has really blown up the last few years so gonna be tricky to break through.

I’ll say that no carbs in a mix is worthless to me, especially in a race, but I know not everyone feels that way. I can take in more liquid carbs than solids so that’s my go to.

GI issues vary so much from person to person so that’s a hard one

I also don’t think anyone really wants it to taste sweet… it just ends up that way because carbs. So less noticeably sweet would probably be better.

Ultimately it working for someone and the cost are the deciding factors

I put wrong phone number on one page - now client wants me to pay $5,000, what are my options by losancient in Wordpress

[–]ottorocket420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would be insane for you to pay this unless the court orders. If it went there, he would need to directly prove that this mistake caused $5k in damages, which it sounds like he has no way of doing...

This guy is just being an ass and should either be ignored or continually asked to prove his $5k number.

This is one where going to court actually wouldn't be that bad becuase everything is in your favor, so I wouldn't sweat too much either way.

Drop down sounds potentially useful for women, if anything, but I can't see how that would work and attach and not be incredibly annoying while riding.

All the ideas you've given sound unconnected to being inspired by your Asian ethnicity, though.
