I am trying to figure out how to improve running uphill (and down), both faster and more economical.

What I understood so far is that low cadence will demand more muscle power while high cadence more “heart” power. I also read here and there that 90 spm might be the magic number.

When I check the numbers on my last 10 weeks runs, I run with high cadence (higher than 90).

Any recommendations or word of advice from more experience runners on running uphill?

Update on , my Godot sailing game! I have refactored the wave code and made some more under-the-hood tweaks. I also set up a pipeline to automatically build the game and host the builds on . The repository is gitlab.com/TKK13909/nautilism and the website is nautilism-c15fcc.gitlab.io/

Please try it out and tell me what you think! I'm still trying to figure out the direction I want to take the game but I am happy to hear suggestions.

Hey WebAuthn and passkeys community, just checking in - I'm here and listening! The way things have gone lately I've ended up splitting my time between here and Bluesky. If you find my profile here and wonder if I'm active or not then rest assured I'm around.

If you're of the Bluesky persuasion you can find me at bsky.app/profile/iamkale.mille

A semi-sorted list of ways to contact me, can always be found at blog.millerti.me/about/

How to subscribe to a thread?

Several days ago FEP-efda: Followable objects was published. I don't like this solution because ActivityPub spec only talks about "following" in the context of actors, and the proposed "proxy-following" mechanism forces us to change some well-established practices.

So here is an alternative: FEP-f06f: Object observers.

Object observer is an actor that can be followed to receive object updates. If conversation thread is a collection, its observer will broadcast Add and Remove activities that have thread collection as their target. Observer's followers will have an up-to-date view of the thread.

**Конструктор**

Зовні начебто цілий
Усередині наче й зламаний
На ділі ж вийшло, що я жодного разу
Так і не був складеним

Довго тягнувся — вишень
Слово за словом — вірші
Кожен рядок писав, аби мене чули
Поранені діти

Хоч-не-хоч — ніч знову
Всі ці казки для дорослих
Залишимо їм трохи того о-
собистого простору

Я все ж так прагну тиші
Начебто прагматичний
Хто що казав, хто як брехав
Все це поглинено миттю

Десь загубили конструктор
Розкидали навколо деталі
Звісно ж, десь там залаштунками
З мене щось та зібрали

Зовні начебто цілий
Усередині наче й зламаний
На ділі ж вийшло, що я жодного разу
Справді не був складеним

Can't even put into words how excited I am right now.

It's frickin' cold but I'm out for the second night out with clear skies this week.. Imaging tonight.

Polar alignment was a bit tricky at first, but worked well in the end.
Getting the small kit zoom lens of my camera to somewhat decent focus was more of a fight.

Taking 30 second subs now, till the battery dies 😅

Picture taken of a camera display at night. It shows some information about the camera mode, ISO, etc. 

Also there are some stars, very faint but visible. It's the pleiades cluster.

Acabo de mudarme de mi cuenta previa (@moshtodonAlberto Ⓥ), aunque llevo amenazando años con ello al pobre @roberRoberto :verified_gay:, a quien le agradezco enormemente el espacio ❤️ si me he venido aquí es precisamente porque confío plenamente en su criterio y me parece un gran moderador y si no lo he hecho antes ha sido por comodidad y por ver si se hacían avances en este ámbito, pero ya iba tocando un cambio de aires.

Ante este suceso, creo que es pertinente repetir la que hice el mes pasado:

Yo llevo aquí desde hace "sienes y sienes" de años, pero me presento igualmente:

👋Soy Alberto, andalú que hizo Física en lugar de informática porque creía que me obligarían a usar Windows.

🤯 Descubrí el Aula de Debate de mi universidad (y pude competir internacionalmente) y me llevó a tomar 2 grandes decisiones:
1. hacerme vegano (ya llevo mi primera década) 🐣
2. crear una cooperativa de fomento del pensamiento crítico usando el debate como metodología 🤔

📚 Académicamente: tengo 2 másteres en: profesorado de secundaria y Lógica y Filosofía de la Ciencia (rama de Argumentación), y estoy con el tercero y último (Big Data y Ciencia de datos). También os digo, parece que soy una mente brillante y en absoluto; soy una persona completamente normal 😅. Si me seguís lo iréis viendo jaja

🎵 Musicalmente fui muy purista del metal y no escuchaba otra cosa que no fuese metal extremo, pero ahora considero ese purismo una chorrada.

✊ Políticamente hablando, me considero de izquierdas.

😺 Vivo con mis gatos y mi novia.

Por último, qué maravilla tener tantos caracteres para hacer esta presentación. Espero que esta nueva era sea maravillosa ❤️

US pol meta - the 20 lessons from the 20th century

I think everyone, but especially USians right now, need to keep the 20 lessons handy and reflect on them often.

Even if you don’t read the book, graphic novel, audiobook etc.

Two images included because I think they both have shortcomings but were what I could find. Plain text in the alt text.

The cover is displayed at the top, the table of contents with the lessons below are:
1. Do not obey in advance. 
2. Defend institutions.
3. Beware the one-party state. 
4. Take responsibility for the face of the world. 
5. Remember professional ethics.
6. Be wary of paramilitaries. 
7. Be reflective if you must be armed. 
8. Stand out. 
9. Be kind to our language. 
10. Believe in truth. 
11. Investigate. 
12. Make eye contact and small talk. 
13. Practice corporeal politics. 
14. Establish a private life. 
15. Contribute to good causes. 
16. Learn from your peers in other countries. 
17. Listen for dangerous words. 
18. Be calm when the unthinkable arrives. 
19. Be a patriot.

"Do what you want, the risk is yours."

Could that be the shortest and clearest license - with no strings attached about things I create and is judged by laws like copyright and ownership to fully have control over - possible?

My goal is to eradicate all and every dependency between me and everyone else. Including having to repeatedly take time to explain what the not comes with.

If it holds I think I should be able to really focus my flow to the way of life.

FYI I've set up auto-posting for my media reviews to this account (finally). They'll go up at 10am, 11am, and noon (depending on media type).

They'll all be tagged with , plus each of the three types will be tagged with:

📚

You can mute any combination of those tags to see only the subset of reviews you're interested in.

If you've got any feedback about the format of the posts, do let me know!

Good health is a temporary privilege. Some people get to enjoy it for most of their lives. Others for a shorter time, or not at all. If you're healthy now, and it's *possible for you to mask up to protect others, but you don't, you're either an asshole, or a short-sighted fool.

Even if there *weren't* another pandemic starting, if you live long enough, your health will deteriorate so you'll need others to protect you. If you don't help normalize that behavior today, why do you expect other people will take care of you when you need it?

*Acquiring masks won't keep you from eating or paying rent.

Welcome to my little corner of the web! These little comics depict the weird and wonderful moments that happen in my life (mostly featuring my parnter). I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

I've made quite a few before this account's creation so the art style may seem different between comics :)

(I've decided to switch to Mastodon as a full account so if you've seen any of my comics on here previous, they were from Bridgy Fed!)

I'm blown away to see readers from all over the world buying my book to read about my journey! Who would've thought? I'm both startled and immensely grateful to all of you who picked it up. (Hiding the numbers as the intention is to share the experience, not to boast 😄). 😍
and this post is about the international purchases, not the ones from India. 😌

The book is available on Amazon Flipkart Google play Google books Kindle

I can tell you from experience of hosting many people's Fediverse server instances for a number of years now that —

Many Fediverse software (at least currently) do a poor job of cleaning-up their various caches

Caching other people's profiles, images, posts, etc

And, this often ends up filling up the storage drive

And as a result, this is a very common thing that causes down-time for people. Probably the most common

What shall we call our new band?

Pigs?

Already taken

I dunno - Pigs Pigs?

Sounds a bit like sigue sigue like Sigue Sigue Sputnik and we really want to stand out

God OK what about Pigs Pigs Pigs?

3 pigs? Like the 3 little pigs, are you mad? No we need something that sounds like noone else. Something that noone else has or will think of.

I've got it! Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs!

Agreed. Saying the word Pigs seven times seems like an excellent name for a band. Let's do it.

Im @riffreporter wollte ich von meiner Kollegin mit deutsch-polnischen Wurzeln wissen: Was wurde eigentlich aus dem Fischsterben in der Oder?

riffreporter.de/de/umwelt/riff

Patricia Friedek hat den politischen Fallout im Sommer 2022 analysiert. Und wir lassen uns von einem Biologen erklären, was genau die Fische umbrachte. - Obwohl damals die rechtskonservative PIS regierte, wird unter der neuen Regierung von Donald Tusk die weiter massiv ausgebaut.
