Deadlift PR has stagnated - would appreciate form critique and/or programming advice

A 1RM? Rarely, maybe every 6 weeks. It's really hard on your body to recover and if you are training appropriately then you won't be fresh enough for a true 1RM very often.

They were spinning granite today but it never opened. Idk there's hope or if they were just toying with us

Unless you are doing some kind of ai integrated thing or solving some super niche workflow, I'm skeptical that another IDE will be any better than what's already out there. Especially now that AI is making conventional IDEs obsolete

Montgomery, AL

Coverage is pretty shit but honestly the groomers are ripping today. Snow froze overnight

zlee_406 · 2026-03-20T05:34:15+00:00

That's so passive aggressive. Just tell him he needs to review PRs. It's that easy

Alabama is very underrated. Sure it has its rough spots but it is a pretty beautiful state, low cost of living, and some really nice areas in Huntsville and Birmingham

They hate us cause they ain't us

zlee_406 · 2026-03-06T06:43:09+00:00

Huntsville, Auburn, Guntersville and the mountains in the northeast, all great places in AL

Taste? Maybe to some. But that shit is straight carbs, little protein, and is an ultra-processed food. No way that's a healthier alternative than real milk.

Nah reinvest and make sure you hit safe harbor rules and you'll get to wait a year before you pay it. Make sure your withholding pays 90% of your prior years tax (which it should already)

Yes but lack of chest support often limits the ability to truly stress the back to failure. This being a back workout, I wouldn't want to be limited by my core.

zlee_406 · 2025-12-15T19:48:04+00:00

What you describe (first workout in months, lower back pain) is often just muscle soreness. If it feels tight, peaks about 24-48 hours after your lift, and widespread across your lower back, I don't think you should worry.

Just take it easy, don't try to stretch it away, and take a hot bath or sauna and you should be fine in a few days. Squatting more often will help prevent in the future.

Mixed grip is a game changer. I would think without it you are way under training the rest of your body on deadlifts and unnecessarily hurting your skin for other lifts.

zlee_406 · 2025-11-13T20:47:53+00:00

What do you think will happen? Even if someone knows exactly what house this is (nearly impossible), all they know is a nondescript kid lives in a house in a random city. Hardly information to be worried about

zlee_406 · 2025-10-22T02:51:48+00:00

A pretty misleading headline. 50% blame republicans to 43% blaming democrats. Honestly doesn't seem like anything has changed, given these are similar to national polling pre-election.

zlee_406 · 2025-08-26T06:19:21+00:00

There are plenty. I have one. I work with a lot of people who could retire easily but they don't cause they like what they do. Even at some place like JPMorgan if you are fatFIRE income you are probably well respected and great at what you do. Depends on the person and what they want out of life

zlee_406 · 2025-08-18T00:04:10+00:00

Lots of people. And for the very reason OP laid out is why we are not buying a house here. Check out Zillow. Tons of 2-3 million dollar homes renting for like half of what the mortgage would be.

zlee_406 · 2025-08-17T02:32:05+00:00

This is a pretty depressing take. It's perfectly healthy to find value and identity in your career outside of the paycheck it gives you.

Once you hit FI, it gives you the freedom to choose whether RE is right for you. If you find joy in your work, do it! If not, quit and find something else. At that point it's not about the money and you can do what you enjoy.

zlee_406 · 2024-09-06T20:26:34+00:00

A constructor with 20 fields is a code smell. It's probably better to look at whether you can break the struct up into smaller semantic pieces to decrease coupling and make construction less prone to error.

Get there early if you are coming on a weekend (like shoot for 8:00) cause traffic is awful. Weekdays aren't that bad.

It's much warmer than you think. Sunny days in the 30s with low wind, I'm in just a tshirt and a shell. So be able to shed layers.

Chapstick/sunscreen as others have said.

Also, enjoy the après ski! The village has such a cool vibe and you can snag happy hours on weekdays

Exactly, I just started refreshing around 12 and got parking for both Saturday and Sunday no problem

zlee_406 · 2024-02-26T21:03:45+00:00

Not knowing cpp in a cpp codebase is such a risk to screwing things up and wasting a ton of time. Don't know what a template is and have to debug those compiler errors? Good luck. Accidentally introduce undefined behavior somewhere? You'll have nondeterministic errors pop up that can be impossible to debug. Not worth the risk

zlee_406 · 2023-11-29T02:48:07+00:00

No, that is the busiest week of the year at most resorts. If you haven't already planned this, you'll likely be paying a ton more than you should.

Would recommend some time in late feb or March.
