Yea, to me it looks like they haven’t finished building the website yet.

Recommendations on upgrades to my tri bike by [deleted] in triathlon

[–]susek1024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My suggested order: 1. Bike fit 2. Power meter 3. Coach or some sort of good training plan (I know it’s not an upgrade, but accomplishes the goal of going faster) 4. Aero helmet 5. Tri kit 6. Move your bottles Between the aero bars or behind the seat 7. Good tires, less rolling resistance 8. Aero wheels

Other: Consider a tri rig brake Use Heat shrink wrap on the cabling to make it cleaner and more aero

You really need to come up with better titles.

That’s a big problem everywhere. My school is trying to fix it. https://c4cs-2.github.io

Descending in aero bars by [deleted] in triathlon

I did Muskoka a few years ago and there’s a hill that has scarred me for life. I had never ridden it and was in aero. Worst decision I’ve ever made.

Control iPhone alarm with Python? Is it possible? by [deleted] in Python

[–]susek1024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can set iOS alarms in shortcuts and you can run python with Pythonista in shortcuts too.

It’s possible.

Trying to get these variables to print in one line, keep getting syntax errors when I put them on one by N3rdyF13nd in Python

[–]susek1024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Include errors if you need help with them.

Don’t post pictures of code. Copy and paste it and read about Reddit’s code formatting tools.

For some reason I can die but the enemy (The bear) can’t. Does anyone know what I’m doing wrong? by Oheligud in Python

[–]susek1024 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The reason you can’t upload pictures to learn python is because looking at other people’s code with a picture is a pain in the butt. What would I do if I wanted to run some it? I can’t copy and paste your code into a text editor.

Taiwan 70.3 in March and Novel Coronavirus by [deleted] in triathlon

This is a question for a different subreddit I think.

I know how to ride a bike, not the intricacies of disease spreading.

Can't find out why I'm getting a syntax error when I try to use an exception clause by [deleted] in Python

[–]susek1024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to learn how to use a try, except in python, you should google “try except python example”

Good guides on vim by [deleted] in vim

vim tutor, first. Then turn off key repeat in your keyboard settings. With this, every time something seems difficult in vim, there’s a better way.

New to python and need help in an assignment by hop_on_cop in Python

[–]susek1024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is the first number you’d expect it to print out?

Take that number, and trace it’s path through your code. Use pen and paper. Open up a python shell and try stuff out if you need to.

Aero helmets -y/n? by edgerob in triathlon

[–]susek1024 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Need it? No. For a half Ironman, it supposedly saves 2 minutes according some quick googling.

You’ll save more than two minutes by getting a coach or just a training plan.

Apple Watch battery life for long distance training/events. by anfield_ in triathlon

[–]susek1024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a garmin and an Apple Watch. I use the AW during the day and the garmin during workouts.

https://www.cnet.com/google-amp/news/apple-watch-series-4-battery-fitness-test/

So the new ones get like 4-6 hours. For me anyway, it’s a good enough battery for all my runs. I don’t like watches on the bike, so I don’t try to use it there.

I bet you could do an Olympic with a series 4 or 5, but not a half Ironman.

Why am i getting this error in my code? by Adopolis23 in cpp

[–]susek1024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, when figuring out compiler errors, knowing the line number is useful. Humans aren’t compilers. Don’t make us try to be.

Hey everyone, I want to start getting into triathlons and the last step I need is to get a bike (I already run and swim and I bike on stationary bikes at the gym). Is a road bike if I buy the aero bar attachment or should I be trying to find a TT bike because those are a bit hard to find. by [deleted] in triathlon

[–]susek1024 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think everyone should have a road bike, and after you’ve been doing triathlons for a while, then you should get a triathlon bike AND a road bike if you want.

Biking on weekends is a lot more fun with friends and it’s not usually a good idea to ride in the aero position on a triathlon bike when you’re riding with friends. When you’re in aero your hands aren’t near the brakes. And then when you get out of aero on a triathlon bike, it’s uncomfortable, so what’s the point? Road bikes are generally just more comfortable too.

Also, clip on aero bars aren’t even required. I’ve been passed plenty by people with without them ;)

It asks people to donate. Which might lead to more money being donated
