I needed a transom bracket for my boat. I didn't want to buy one (they are ~50USD) so I figured I could print one using nylon. Don't worry, this is only holding a rudder.

Anyway, I couldn't find one that would work so I just asked Sol to design one using free cad. It used 12% of my weekly budget ($20/m plan) and spit out something nearly perfect. I imported it into OnShape to add some chamfers and make a few tweaks.

Am I the only one who just uses Privacy.com and the pauses the card when I want to cancel a subscription? They have no way of charging me....

"You cannot invalidate individual JWT tokens". Which every time I've implemented, the general guideline is to check for invalidated nonces somewhere. Which resolves that random blog posts second point too.

100% agree. This is common sense to me and I'm always surprised to re-learn people don't do this

I currently have a desktop with a 4060 ti (16gb of vram). Most models I have tested that fit within that are not good enough for anything other then type completion (in regards to coding tasks)

I have been considering getting the 58gb Mac Mini but that is a decent amount of money to spend without confirmation on a) how fast is it and b) will it work for well-defined tasks.

When? I was a kid...7ish.

Why? Thats harder to answer. Because my parents told me about Jesus, and the Holy Spirit opened my heart to receive it. I didn't weigh the evidence. My eyes were opened and I "saw". The "why" is ultimately that I was pursued. My heart was changed and I was given faith. I wasn't smart enough and definitely didn't pursue him on my own. That's the best thing about it.

That's the only honest answer I can give.

Interesting. I lost 100% of taste and smell months. I never found anything I could taste. Spicy has zero effect. I could cut onions with no tears. Literally nothing with any food

The only “sensation” I had eas texture which I found very gross without flavor.

It was like that for about 2 months and it slowly came back over another 5 maybe 6. Salty was the first thing I noticed.

5 years later and I still don’t smell coffee, gas or a few other things. It’s weird walking down the coffee isle at the store and not smelling it at sll

Yesterday, I determined to move to Zed because they weren't pushing this stuff :(

That is different that signing something and being held to it.

You waived a right by saying that but you can choose.l to not speak after.

Even if the paper waived an attorney you should be able to change your mind

He said he was asked to waive his rights and when he asked police whether he needed an attorney they said no because they were only asking a few questions. He signed the waiver thinking he was going to help, but a few questions turned into a nearly nine-hour interrogation

How is it we are able to legally "waive rights"? That should be addressed - under no circumstances should a not-yet-convicted person ever be stripped of rights. Voluntarily or not. Otherwise, what are they?

Sure, someone can choose to not exercise them; maybe cooperate with the police, but if at any point they choose they should be available.

Am I missing something?

Mine isn't listed. My takeaway is that it isn't rated for cold climates. For what it is worth, I know the HSPF rating is 8.8 but I don't know at what temperature that is calculated at.

This made my night. I read it with my daughter (a genz potter fan) and we still have tears. Thanks for sharing:)

It is a Trane. Sadly switching isn't like distro hopping :/

I live in the pacific northwest. Winter are low 30s at night for 3 months out of the year :( Granted, highs are mid-high 40s so it works fine during the day 90% of the time

I don't :/ I do have a smart home setup but it is local-only. I think I am capturing most of the data I need.

I know when my HVAC is running. I know how much power it is using. I know the temperature of every room, I have a stat outside so I have realtime temp/humidity of my location...I just don't have a way to capture and record how much heat is being generated. I'm wondering if putting a temperature sensor directly on an air vent would let me capture it over time

I'm considering it. I have an energy audit scheduled next week. Depending on what they find I may consider buying something new. This one is 13 years old and I'm sure they've improved a lot since it was installed.

Sounds like it was undersized for your house (unless your doing something crazy like trying to hold 80+).

It was set to 69 and held steady at 67 running for 8.5 hours. It wasn't until the temperature outside broke 36 that the inside temp slowly started to climb. It is a 3ton system for a 2500sqft home. From what I have read it should be enough. I think the problem is that it is an older heat pump and just doesn't perform well below 35.

FWIW I was able to get efficiency charts and such at various temperatures from my salesperson, but I gather most don't bother.

I think this is my point? This was here when I moved it. I shouldn't have to go to a salesperson. I should be able to look it up in the specs or even the manual. At a minimum the manufacturer should provide it when asked.

It's a simple matter, therefore, to calculate the CO2 and financial cross over point for a heat pump vs. a furnace. I did that calculation when I had one installed in my house (for ductless AC; heating is an added bonus). It's somewhere between about -5 or -10 C, if I recall correctly.

How can I do this? I know my heat pump can only maintain (not raise) my house temp at 36F/2C. But I have yet to figure out at what temp it is cheaper to run my natural gas furnace. I suspect ~40F/5C but that is just a guess (see my comment on parent)

This is borderline a tangent, but I think manufactures should be required to provide data regarding efficiency at specific temperatures. We moved into a house with a heat pump almost 2 years ago. For the most part it is great, but I noticed that in cold(ish) temps it can't keep up. I'm not talking single digits temperatures.

I called the manufacturer and asked for data about my model. They refused to give it to me because I wasn't an authorized installer.

It took me a long time and many sensors and calculations later but I have learned that below 36F it can't pull heat fast enough to raise the temperature of my house. The house doesn't get colder - that is the "break even" point. To be fair, it was installed in 2010 and I'm sure it was good for its time.

Why can't they just provide a spec that says how much heat/kw can be created at given temps? Even in steps like 10, 20, 30, 40 etc... I think that would go a long way to debunk the myth

It's a GE. That's all I know :/

does it beed every +30 seconds

No joke, I bought and returned 4 microwaves before I found one that doesn't. I'm picky, and finally found one that does a quick double "beeep beeep" and is done.

Ha! I didn't know he had adhd. I watched one video of his last week and ever since my feed is all adhd stuff. I was so confused, but now it makes sense.

Isn't there the same chance that any domain has that chance? I'm struggling to see how Slackstatus.com is any safer than status.slack.com. Genuinely curious - I'm not trying to start an argument:)

You totally can! I have a couple of apps that were made using it. There might even be a showcase on their site

The Godot engine. Don't have to build games with it. Gdscript is just as easy as basic, too. I suggest making a weekend app with it and learning

You can use the Godot engine to build apps. It has a very similar drag/drop UI. Double click for events, and gdscript is very easy to pickup. Reminds me of VB everytime I use it

Absolutely. My point is that it doesn't always go that way. He had his faults, but he could take string feedback. If I recall, he said something to the effect of "not many people speak to me like that. I forget how helpful it is to be challenged"

One thing I'll add - or maybe it expands on too technical of a leader - is when a brilliant outside hire is brought in to fill the arch/principal/whatever role.

Then they start looking at the app and questioning every decision calling everything they don't have context on "technical debt"

I've seen it a few times. I told a new VP of Eng he was being asinine because he wasn't there for the original problem, decision, or timeline and saying we made a bad call is just showing ignorance.

Thankfully, He pulled me aside later to thank me and asked for more background on it. After hearing the whole story he agreed. We did the right thing.

Now, that could have gone the other way. And I've seen it happen. When it does, it sucks.

So in other words, a feature flag? Widely used trick - if you want to call it that - in software

I work in climate tech and the product my company produces monitors electricity usage in the home. The average user reduces their home electricity usage by 7% in the first month, solely due to becoming aware of what they are using.

What product is that? I'd like to learn more
