Live in rural England and have a heat pump with 7kW of solar PV and 16kWh of battery. Any outdoor temperature around 10 degrees the, heat pump keeps the house at 20C using about 1kW of power and is only drawing power for half the day. Warme

Sure. The anterior tilt is typically caused by short hip flexors and weak glutes/hamstrings to pull the pelvis back into a level position. I'd suggest: 1. Loosening up the hip flexors. There are quite a few good stretches you can

Have a look at recover athletics [1], recently bought by Strava, which allows you to specify where the pain is and they give you strength exercises to help strength surrounding areas which will put a stop to the pain. You get pain through m

To provide some anecdata. I started running again a few years ago (I'm late 30s now but used to run competitively when I was younger). Before I started, my Oura ring tracked resting heart rate while sleeping at an average of 55 bpm. Af

According to NHS ophthalmologists at Moorfields eye hospital, I had acanthamoeba keratitis - a rare eye infection which… well… just Google pictures for what happens if left untreated. Theory is, I picked it up after staying in a hot tub too

Very cool. I'm guessing one of the two US athletes! It was a great race - love watching Hassan race too. Also enjoyed the mens 5km and was very happy (as a Brit) to see Josh Kerr beat Ingebrigtsen in the 1500m :)

Oh gosh. I remember my parents hiding my keyboard and mouse after my Dad received a £500 phone bill one month. This was in 1999. We were on pay per minute dial-up in the UK and I was obsessed with playing a game called Team Fortress Classic

Did not expect to see Alan Partridge on hacker news. I'm Alan partridge was hilarious! “Jet from Gladiators to host a millennium barn dance at Yeovil aerodrome. Properly policed. It must not, I repeat not, turn into an all-night rave.”

This brings back memories. In early 2000s, I wrote my undergrad thesis on a survey of SAT solving techniques. I believe the most capable general solver at the time was called DPLL and used a backtracking approach. My key insight at the time

This looks great and I would love to try it but I have an iPhone 7 plus so can't install the required version of iOS - need to upgrade! I currently use Octal but would switch and pay the subscription for an app that: 1) Highlights or l

Yup, it's mad! I pay £2,500 a month for nursery for my son in zone 2. So... to send your kid to nursery you need £40k of spare gross income before paying the mortgage, and everything else. I'm fed up and moving up north!

The this comment amused me because I worked for a company which was working with NPCI to replace UPI with a blockchain based system. NCPI wanted to replace the current system because it was deemed too centralised and they were investing mon

Shin splints are horrid but can be avoided. Increase your cadence to at least 170 strides per minute. More if you can. This forces you to lower stride length. Overstriding is a main cause for shin splints. Also try to think about your hips

M1 reserves are not lent out by commercial banks - they are a liability of the central bank and an asset of the commercial banks or anyone else with access to the central bank's balance sheet. Banks only ever lend you their own liabili

I might add that if I’m racing or doing high intensity work, then clearly I take carbs like everyone else.

I think OP is referring to people with poor metabolic flexibility. If not fat adapted, then you have enough glycogen for roughly 1600 calories worth of running at which point you bonk and can’t continue. If you are metabolically flexible th

Just to clarify. I eat carbs! Just not refined carbs or sugars, and only on days I need to replenish glycogen or make sure I’m topped up. Get most of my intake from super starch, fruit or vegetables. I don’t eat pasta or bread.

I'm 38 and run about 80km a week on average and have run since I was 12 years old. Humans are built for running! Any notion that running is bad for the average person is nonsense (clearly if you have some known underlying issue which m

Actually, they are correct. The only nuance I would add is that, from reading the scientific literature, we are not exclusively in fat or carb burning mode, it's usually a mix of the two. The mix depends on how well your body is adapte

Sample size of 1 but I will do a 20km tempo run at about 4.00min/km and nose breathe the whole way. I also have a deviated septum.

Fair enough. I believe that's commonly called discrimination.

Are you actually responsible for hiring people? If so, it's quite a narrow-minded and borderline silly take on things. I've been hiring people for the last 8 or so years and if I come across a good engineer, I really don't ca

"Proof of reserves" including Vitalik's heath robinson crypto schemes, provide minimal assurance to exchange users. Why? It's what one would call a "limited assurance engagement" in audit parlance. In other wor

Alright, chill out mate! I'm just taking this from a book I read called "breath". The author did this and suggested it fixed his sleep apnea. Also, for what it's worth, I tape my mouth if I have a cold/hay fever and

It sounds silly but try sleeping with tape over your mouth to encourage nose breathing. If you do have sleep apnea, while not as effective as a CPAP machine, it might help. Good luck!

After getting covid last month (not vaccinated), it took six weeks for my resting heart rate to return to normal. Usually it is 45-50 depending on how much exercise I do during the day. After covid it was hovering around 55 for a month then
