i mean im still here ive also been trying to write some r code to create optimized lineups for betting on baseball on draftkings so far i have lost like 50 bucks. i just have it taking whatever quantile from a sorted list of past daily fantasy scores tho the real analysis of actually parsing through not only past contest results but also baseball-reference stats to outperform random chance plus the house's cut is still ahead of me. its kinda fun. i guess oystertoadfish has issued a correction as of 04:02 on Jun 10, 2016 |

dc and uva are quite bitterness-inducing to really care about the sports teams of especially when you get that umd is life undeserving of life uva won college baseball that's kinda like winning a aa minor league championship so my enjoyment is somewhat measured. even i don't care about the loving lacrosse championships we have lol idk i made a lot of e-friends on sas 10 years ago and i just kinda talk with them on twitter nowadays i dont even go in sas now

Mayor Dave posted:what a coincidence i literally started this program today, but i started at the bare minimum because it's been almost a decade since i last worked out in any serious way ive previously tried to cut ahead and started having nagging problems in later weeks so this time i also started at the absolute minimum, exactly the weights he's listing also i spend like 5-10 minutes before and after the workout kneading my quads and back muscles on a foam roller, im probably overdoing it but its so far prevented some unnerving knee problems that scared me when i started getting to heavier squat weights in past attempts at this poo poo and it also really reduces post-workout aches and pains edit: idk it was like tightness in the muscle on the outside of the knee, felt like something was twanging back and forth over the bone as i went up and down, i talked to a trainer who seemed to know some poo poo and he told me to foam roll the quad muscle above that spot and it seems to work so far. its all a bit of an unknown to me tho oystertoadfish has issued a correction as of 05:28 on Jun 10, 2016 |

Homework Explainer posted:starting strength > stronglifts imo. i should probably ease back into things with that routine rather than the bodybuilding one i was using before, but whatever. fortune favors the bold and so does muscle strain phase 1 is very similar to stronglifts. not identical tho. fewer reps, and i've had gym people give me feedback along those lines too. people who mentioned the name rippetoe, which i've read before, and turns out starting strength is his poo poo. so that's meaningful i know mostly i just need to keep moving weight and developing good habits but as i start to hit plateaus or w/e i guess ill keep this in mind ty

ive been lifting 3x/wk, skating 2x/wk, it's been p sustainable, my weight hasn't changed in a month and while that's not my priority, i'm focused on increasing the lifting #s and gaining hockey ability/endurance and that's happening, it's becoming clear that i need to get my poo poo together on the dietary front i have a really hard time not falling off the wagon wrt cardio unless i'm engaged in some kind of purpose ie a sport, hockey has helped in that regard but gently caress it. buttfuck it. i just wanna look like 80s comedians with like towels under their sweatsuits oystertoadfish has issued a correction as of 05:37 on Jun 10, 2016 |

oh lord i know that feel, these hockey people are the only fuckers i know in this town outside of work and all the engineers i work with are staunch anti-work drama people apparently since not one of them has ever said anything interesting and neither have i. so theyre not my friends i always liked soccer at a real low level as a motivation for cardio, im not any good tho so i dont want to play in an organized league. i guess ill run into it someday

WINNINGHARD posted:I don't know how you guys put up with lifting. It bores me to tears. I used to do a lot of lifting until I quit smoking weed and since then it's been maddening to show up at the gym. im the opposite, lifting keeps me engaged but when i was getting high i just wouldnt show up, and as for the biking i've owned a bike but ended up not using it and regretted the purchase actually to be specific my bike lock wouldnt unlock outside of nationals park and the loving nationals stole my god drat bike but i still love them sports are a lesson in the evils of capitalism so obvious even newt gingrich couldnt avoid it but im still here i know r 'cause i did my phd in it, and it turns out you can do a lot of poo poo, like scraping the history of rome podcast site even tho you have to let the links on the site redirect or else you get garbled mp3s, but when you try to share your rad script on twitter some "real programmer" will show up and be like 'why didnt you use python?' and it MAKES ME SO GOD drat ANGRY apparently idk i always was just brute-forcing my way through getting actual poo poo done and real programmers were always whining about tiny little details and im like d00d i just ran a trillion monte carlo iterations and you want me to have run a trillion and one gently caress you BUT GRAD SCHOOL DIDNT LEAVE ME A BITTER HUSK OF A MAN OH NO SIR EE oystertoadfish has issued a correction as of 05:55 on Jun 10, 2016 |

WINNINGHARD posted:"real programmers" mostly muddle their way through poo poo helen keller yeah i was just psyching myself out. it's all good. all im really doing is offering drunken specifications on the general truism that grad school can be traumatic, if anybody's in that position believe me i understand Goetta posted:ALSO if you knee makes kind of a squishy noise or feeling when going up or down then you probably have patella tendonitis, which made me take a long break from lifting. Squatting is kind of scary really with a squishy sore knee because you feel like one time it will just stop working and you wont be able to stand up. my knee problem was almost the opposite of squishy, it was tight; i felt like a tendon or muscle or something on the outside of my right knee was *twang*ing over a bone and back again on every rep. it was eerie and i always stopped after it happened once or twice. i think my gym's trainer might've given me the right advice bc when i started using the foam roller on the knotty spot on the quadriceps above the place where i felt the problem i could feel things loosening up and i haven't had the problem since, although i'm not up to the weights i've been at when experiencing the problem before. we'll see how it goes. but the more i know the better so thanks for sharing your knee fee-fees fee-fees was probably the stupid ycs phrase that pissed me off the most and it seems to have died off but i always thought that should've gotten wordfiltered. at this moment however it rhymes oystertoadfish has issued a correction as of 06:30 on Jun 10, 2016 |

i used python or more specifically arcpy for a task at an old job once, python seemed fine, im sure every language is fine, i dont hate python it just seems like whenever i google and ultimately end up on stackexchange trying to find an r package to do some poo poo i end up finding it but if i were a programmer as opposed to an engineer i get that the choice of language could be much more important and thats cool. lord knows most engineers just do poo poo in vba+excel and i get that that's not optimal

my parents friends were making fun of me for being afraid of turning 30 once, i dont think there's anything special about 30 its just one of a trillion different opportunities to feel insecure that people latch onto for a couple years another example of an opportunity to feel insecure is starting a conversation about online dating in the loving ycs chat thread i just got the Stable joke
