I'm in Baltimore area and in Philly and NY areas often enough. I too have similar aspirations to make it out to the bay area eventually with gf. I was just in Lake Tahoe area (and SF) for climbing last week.

There's also ccons[1], which is a similar idea but built on top of Clang/LLVM. [1] http://code.google.com/p/ccons/

Do you do this for yourself or for a second employer? Is it mostly social engineering or just being very steadfast? I'd love to know more about it.

Whoa, I share every one of those except scuba (Trying to get into sailing now). Where are you physically? Edit: based on posts, I guess Seattle. Haha and objc dev also.

Re: never stopping to learn, when I was meeting people at my local flying club, the 89-year old Chief Flight Instructor Emeritus welcomed me and showed me around. We were chatting about flying, and the man's been flying for literally 70 yea

How far long are you on your license (and physics for that matter)? I took my break earlier this year right before stage 1 check, hoping to return soon.

Where do you sail? I have been looking to get into it. My goal was to help out on current races and get into it that way. (I hear people need all the help they can get and will let you come along for free). I'm near Baltimore so there are a

At the risk of not conveying mahmud's true reasons, I'd like to chime in since I share all of his hates. If I had to pick a reason to hate video games, I'd say because they are mental sugar. They are a huge time sink and when you are playin

My contact's in my info page. The Philly gyms I've been to are a bit subpar, but should be alright as an introduction.

And I guess I can start: mine are rock climbing, flying single engine planes (hoping to get into gliders) which is currently on break, and neuroscience (at an extremely amateur level). If anyone wants to get an introduction to climbing and

This sounds like a great idea if implemented well, but I just see the potential for a gigantic amount of noise. I mean the set of all topics is mostly highly-specific and uninteresting. If you would subdivide everything into clusters and

Every time climbing comes up, I am still surprised how many HNers climb. I've been gym climbing for about two years, climbing outdoors (sport and top rope) for a little over one, and I'm just starting to learn how to trad climb. I have a wo

Crossfit-style work outs are great. I used to participate in a class that did very intense work outs three times a week. Also, look up what tabata runs are, they did wonders for my endurance.

I try to eat not a lot, and mostly stuff that doesn't come in a wrapper. I climb two to three times a week and some weekends, for 2-3 hrs at a time. I supplement climbing with two to three 30-45 minute lifting gym sessions. I used to run, b
