  • You just have to add two numbers. With the big number hand you can count hundreds by using the closest segments first, then medium then distant and so on. Hardest additions will make you carry the one once for a case like 19+175 which is easy enough. Also, going from 37 to 38 in binary with fingers you have to close 4 fingers and open one while counting segments you at most move your thumb to the next segments on both hands.

    Binary still works fine and is better depending on the specific case but in my opinion counting segments is usually more convenient and base 10 friendly.



  • For anyone considering running a marathon then they should know it’s easy to train for it. Elite runners train with 80% of their weekly distance as easy and going 100% on that is totally ok.

    So going out there, running at a comfortable/enjoyable pace is all you need as long as you’re consistent. It’s literally that easy. Increase weekly distance by 10% a week and do a long session ideally once per week. Long distances should also follow a 10% per week max increase to avoid injury.

    So basically, you end up chilling, listening to podcasts and plodding along for a year and you end up being ready for a marathon.

    One quick side note: If something feels weird in any of your tendons, just chill and take some days off and do quick warm ups before running.

    I like all of those things but currently I really like it to be light enough so it doesn’t bother my shoulders. On the go I want it to be light, at home I have everything with peripherals such as a USB hub, external monitors etc.

    I really want to get a dock so I can plug everything through a single USB-C port but they are expensive and often have bad Linux support.
