A great basic formula I stole from NorCal Cycling's YouTube channel for coming up with a nutrition plan for a bike ride is:

TRAINING TIME(HOURS)x60=CARBS(GRAMS)

Don’t tell people how to think. Sums it up perfectly.

This screenshot[1] is a great example of what you're talking about.

* Awful typography (especially bold text)

* Ugly gray background in foreground window

* Windows 95-era buttons in the foreground window

* Weird left padding in the (ugly) dock

* Terminal window has window controls on the right for some reason, and they look like they're from Windows?

All that said, it's still in preview (v0.4pre4), and these things can all be corrected. But I think they'd do well to slap "early preview" all over the place so people don't write it off.

> smart body weight scales

My experience with their index scale is that it's garbage for anything other than weight.

Agree with everything else you say though.

I had a similar experience until I learned about the importance of setting a correct Activity Class. Don't think that's actually even in the manual. https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?faq=DJEru6ns626MZTh2kvUXZA

> and comes out behind in the end.

As someone in the tri community in vc funded silicon valley, I haven't heard of a better alternative to strava? would genuinely be interested in trying something better but all my running clubs still seem to be using strava

Garmin Connect actually has all the useful (to me) features Strava has.

If all your buddies have Garmins and post public rides/runs, you get segment leaderboards, friends news feed, popularity routing, kudos, a training calendar that connects to TrainingPeaks and all the stats you could want.

Plus Garmin has very capable sports watches and smart body weight scales to consolidate all your fitness indicators in one place. Also, it's completely free.

The downside is the user base is much smaller so less segments and who knows if your KOM is the fastest time. You also won't get randos on the internet kudo'ing your rides/runs and boosting your ego. Also, no cool extensions like Elevate, StravaSauce, etc.

What the heck happened to The Verge? Haven't visited in a while and it doesn't even seem like it's the same site.
