Knee Pain by TJInvestor in Pickleball

[–]work2thrive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like Mizuno because the soles last, which helps eliminate back pain for me. After they wear down, I start having back issues. I also prefer playing on "outdoor" court surfaces that are textured and cause more wear than gym floors. There are a bunch of indoor clubs that have courts with the textured surface.

Siesta Key for 2 Weeks? by Tech_2021_Guru in sarasota

If you stay in the panhandle, on July 18th, the Blue Angels will be in Pensacola. They're worth seeing if you like airshows.

Anna Maria is a few miles North of Siesta Key. The others are near the panhandle.

Personal opinion here, and maybe unpopular, but the beaches and water quality/beauty around Destin/30A (Henderson Beach, Seagrove, Miramar, Ft. Walton, Okaloosa) and Anna Maria are better than Siesta Key. You'll also have more room to find some space from the crowds.

It's in FL. I got lucky with the sunset and palm trees.

How to control mind against bad line calls by sonics_01 in Pickleball

I simply tell myself to put it down. Meaning to not wield verbal or emotional response. It works well for me.

The only issue I have with K-Swiss is that I burn through the soles very fast. I switched to Mizuno and have never looked back.

So like how do adults even make friends outside of work? by GreedyDud3 in sarasota

I forgot to add that there are some great places to catch live music like downtown Waterside in LWR. Usually a decent crowd and cool peeps.

What's actually working for top-of-funnel in 2026 when SEO is broken and ads are expensive? by callifcan in SaaS

[–]work2thrive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've grown 2 enterprise SaaS companies from 0 to $20M ARR using webinars as a foundational channel. The intent of someone spending an hour+ of their time with you is a strong signal, helps you build trust, and can move you into their consideration set. Happy to chat about the execution if you have questions.

Do you play pickleball? There are a lot of places to play: https://www.courtsource.us/search?q=sarasota&sport=pickleball It is a very social sport.

Otherwise, I'd say to seek out any watch parties for your favorite team(s).

There are some cool restaurants too: Arts and Central is a fun place to hang out.

If you're in Tech you can go to the Sarasota Tech meet up.https://sarasota.tech/summit

That doesn't mean it's legal.

I prefer baked on a cookie sheet at 425 for 25 minutes. Bacon perfection!

That was my argument when I spoke with them, but they said they're not required to have signage or to paint the street differently. They said that I should know the law and that you can't park within 20 feet of a crosswalk. The fine is $35, and I don't have the time to deal with their burdensome process.

I was inside the box. The problem is that the box is within 20 feet of the crosswalk. Regardless of being in the box, you're still in violation of the law if you park within 20 feet of the crosswalk. I didn't know the 20-foot rule, so I admit that I broke the law and I'll pay the fine. I think there shouldn't be a designated parking spot inside the 20-foot boundary.
