I was going to comment the same thing, rather than push off harder, I'd hope it help brace for impact and relieve some of the weaker muscles.
Yes, I should perhaps be doing strength training, but I have limited hours to exercise and I'd prefer to spend them running rather than training so that eventually I could be running.
Another thing that happens is that your technique gets worse during longer runs, making you more prone to injuries. Maybe a device like this could either support you so you can run longer runs or compensate to make sure you don't hurt yourself.
So if this device helps with reducing running based injuries, I'm all for it
I have an electric cargo bike that I put in one of the lowest settings, if I cycle at the top speed it doesn't help much if at all. But accelerating from a dead stop is nice. This could be similar
Off topic, but for what it's worth I'm getting myself a rowing machine to try and alleviate my running cravings, especially as winter is coming. I'm not sure if it will be able to reproduce the feelings I get from running as I haven't done rowing enough, but running seems to be the only thing I've found that puts me into this flow state. Cycling is too limited, legs only, HR doesn't get high enough, so hopefully rowing is better due to it being full body. Rowing won't be outside and I won't be physically moving around so that may be the downside. But the metrics to achieve should be much more consistent and comparable compared to if there's many weather changes otherwise, so looking forward to seeing progress there.
It’s somewhat funny that you mention shin splints and technique breakdown, both of which can be helped through regular gym going but also want a shortcut rather than the obvious solution.
Shin splints really do suck though, I had some that put me off running for about 12 months.
Maybe they can be helped, and I've read suggestions like these as well, but I used to do a lot of strength training, including not skipping leg days, and still got shin splints. So strength training might decrease odds for some people, but I don't feel like it would be deciding factor for me.
This library builds upon pygfx and wgpu-py. Unfortunately, the latter doesn't support running on WASM, pyscript or pyodide yet, but there's an issue about it:
Thanks. Yeah I've been baffled as to why just interactive Matplotlib with a Colab kernel is so slow. The Colab CPU is fast (enough), the network is fast, I haven't been able to figure out where the bottleneck is either.
I just remembered, I think there is something weird with Google's servers or the network because performance was very poor even with a custom Google Cloud instance running jupyterlab, see this: https://github.com/vispy/jupyter_rfb/issues/95#issuecomment-...
Is google colab slower than an equivalently powerful kernel running on a remote jupyter kernel? Are you running into network problems, or is it something specific to colab?
A big holdup seems to be who would maintain this in the CPython project. Perhaps some Astral folks could become core devs as well and maintain it upstream
Hardly anyone who does real work would want to contribute to CPython these days. The reputational risk is too high, the work would be taken, modified and slowly ruined by the mediocre influencers.
I would advise against Astral for maintaining anything inside the Python organization. Too much talk, power plays and no real software engineering.
The parent comment is inflammatory. That said, moving anything in the Python project requires a lot of energy, there is high friction and it's probably not wise to try to do that until something has established itself outside.
The discussions around lockfiles, dynamic metadata or PyBI (the PEP that wanted to address what python-build-standalone does) are good examples of how hard it is to cause change in that space.
I could never justify the time investment to upstream a lot of my python-build-standalone work. I made some attempts. But it always felt like I was swimming against a heavy current and the talk to meaningful action ratio was too high. The payoff would be there. But it was the kind of work someone would have to pay me to do: not how I would choose to spend my free time on nights and weekends.
I’m optimistic the Astral folks will have better success than me and I support them in their efforts. They have viable, popular solutions in hand. Hopefully that helps convert others to their cause. “If you build it they will come.”
If you've submitted a 510k for your medical device, you can advertise it as "510k pending".
There is a risk that you never receive the clearance or approval, but in this case Apple probably knew they had already addressed any feedback the FDA had so it was very likely there would be no further stumbling blocks
