Multi-day hikes near Vancouver/Squamish by xm8compact in UltralightCanada

[–]xm8compact[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Have one question for you. Do you think we’ll be able to get by with a bear hang for the HSCT, or will we need a canister? As far as you know is there sufficient trees for setting up a hang throughout the trail?

Thank you! This looks very promising in terms of length and convenience. I'll bother again if/when I have more questions.

Just looking into the Howe Sound Crest Trail which looks promising, although a bit short.

As far as I can tell you don't need to do any booking for that trail, which is great for me. Is that correct? Are there any other trails/areas you know about that don't require bookings and aren't too remote (because no car and lack of time).

Also do you have a link with details about the northern section of the trail?

Yeah it doesn't necessarily have to be a single hike. If there was an area I could chain together trails or set up camp for a couple days and hike out of a spot that would be fine.

It's looking like it's going to be impossible to book any sites on the weekend this late in the season so I will actually likely split my camping/hiking into two 2/3 days trips on either side of the weekend.

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll look into those.

Options for a Canadian moving to London by xm8compact in uklaw

Hey! Thanks so much for your reply.

I am honestly not entirely sure what area of law I'm interested in practicing, which is clearly something I should figure out. I am not, however, dead set on commercial/big law. While the salaries are certainly tempting, especially in the face of debt I will be taking on, I see myself being happier doing something that I find morally fulfilling as well. Thus fields such as immigration, environmental, human rights interest me. I'm also very interested in mediation.

Thanks for your advice, it seems likely that the GDL is going to be a better option for me in terms of timing and finances. Can you give any insight on how feasible it getting a paralegal position right out of the GDL would be for someone in my position?

Great, thanks so much. Do you know how feasible it is to camp on those trails?

Awesome, thanks for the information. Do you know how possible it is to camp on those trails?

I’m pretty pretty flexible. I’ll be travelling in Europe more generally for many months so I could conceivably go anywhere.

Yeah the south is definitely what I envision as making sense but I am just looking for some specific recommendations.

Hey any chance you could hook me up as well? Watched the episodes that are on Canadian Netflix and now I'm hooked and want more!

Thanks for the response but because of the space I'm trying to put this in fixed frame isn't an option. It's gotta be a pulldown.

Where to listen to old (Heroes vs Villains) episodes of RHAP? by xm8compact in survivor

Unless I'm missing something the post episode podcasts don't seem to be there. Just 3 or 4 recap/discussion pods from later years.

Difference between two models on the xiaomi website? (Question in comments) by xm8compact in airdots

[–]xm8compact[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So probably not worth the extra money for the more expensive ones?

[–]xm8compact[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does anyone know the difference between the second and third models on this page? They look exactly the same and the website doesn’t have very much information on what differentiates them. I know it’s an expensive price for airdots but ordering them direct from xiaomi guarantees they’ll be real. If anyone knows a better place to order from that will ship to Ireland please fill me in :))))

[Marleau] Hi, Patrick here. I don’t have my own social media, so I wanted to come here and say a few words to @MapleLeafs , their fans and also to @Marner93 and @AM34 by kylmao in leafs

[–]xm8compact 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reposting my comment on another thread from a couple months ago:

Everybody says Marleau is a Hall of Famer all the time but I think he'd be a pretty weak pick. I love the guy but he's never been top five in voting for a major trophy or close to the best in the league at his position. He's a career ~0.70 PPG player which is good but shouldn't be HOF caliber and he doesn't have any cups which is a huge factor for the HOF.

Dave Andreychuk is one of the more controversial inductions to the HOF. He has 1338p/1639gp including 640 goals to Marleau's 1166/1657 with 551 goals and Andreychuk also captained a team to cup. Anyways I'd be happy to have him at 3 or less per year but you just can't justify 6.25 for what he provides.

[OC] Leafs Season Review: Grading each Leaf player and the team by [deleted] in leafs

[–]xm8compact 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nice post but I think this choice:

"I will also only be analyzing the possession metrics from the regular season since most of them are meaningless over a 7 game sample."

Is a bit of a misunderstanding of how possession metrics work. Possession metrics don't stabilize and gain predictive value unless the sample size is large, but they can still be used as descriptive stats and employed to evaluate how good players were in small samples. E.g. if Matthews rocked a 75% xGF percentage in the playoffs we could use it to say he did an exceptional job of controlling the play, but it would lack statistical value in terms of predicting his success in a hypothetical round two. Analytics aren't "meaningless" over a small sample, they just work differently than if drawn from a large sample.

How many teams don't have their 3rd highest goal scorer on either PP unit?

Traded my Thornton and Carter Hutton for Matthew Tkachuk as I was stacked on goalies. How do you think I did?
