You'll get the best learning by staying off the crutches. The duck Ai is the only llm you're permitted to use, and for a very good reason. However it is better for you if you try to avoid using it, or at least only ask it syntax questions.

Same thing with search engines. Syntax questions should be about it. "How do I write a loop in C" would be fine. "How do I print an ascii pyramid" is not.

Without studying engineering, "the biggest that won't make your project look bad" is a decent staring point.

It's all about strength and how that screw will be acting. If it's acting as the hinge it'll need to be beefy. If it's just to stop movement so friction can keep things in place, it doesn't take much.

They wouldn't find mine, because I only have one of the three and it's under a pseudonym.

Some coworkers might be able to figure it out, except I don't think they're active on the same communities.

If your name is on it, you'll be found. If your name is not on it, you probably won't be found. There are exceptions to the rule of course, but as a generalization that's how it goes.

A company's main concern is how your behavior will affect their image. If there's no obvious link, they won't care. If you're constantly deriding them from an anonymous account with inside info, they'll figure you out, even if it takes a mole hunt.

A print server should have an exception to this rule.

Pointit out, in an email. "The following servers are print servers and will need tk be exempted from this rule... Otherwise it would severely disrupt user operations." Your own manager needs to be cc in it.

If they press the issue, send a final "per security team instructions we will disable print services on <date>. Cc service manager for visibility." Then call the SM and lay out what will break, let them deal with it.

Stay hydrated. Drink lots of water. Alcohol is a diuretic (dehydrates you). Don't catch syphilis. The food there is expensive, but some of it is pretty good. Bathrooms can get sketchy.

Looks like it's going I be a scorcher this year. Bring extra water.

It would open the door to low effort posts. A link to a video of a story, or a meme. So some rules might be in order around that if they are allowed, and it would likely lead to an increase in moderation requirements.

Now, adding an image as part of a post, like "the hoa won't let me install this - here's a picture" is probably OK as long as the post as a whole still meets community standards.

I'd probably at least replace it with a "no low effort posts" rule and have a meme day to keep things from being flooded with noise.

Really? Damnit! Here I thought I'd made it past the temptation window.

The hoa had the authority to make the rule. I don't disagree with the ruling - the letter of the law is pretty clear - the condo comes with a rule you agree to. It's the core problem of an HoA.

My issue is with the rule itself. It is an insane rule, and was almost certainly enforced as retaliation for something else or to protect questionable activities of board members or their buddies. Which is why I think she should have agreed and found a better way. Don't they make cameras for the peep hole in the door? Those are hard to spot.

Having never touched python, I want to think it's because you're trying to index into a list with a string. At least, that's what the error says. Also, win+shift+s to draw a box for a cropped screenshot, instead of a photo of a screen.

Perhaps you meant to create a hashtable? Because your print command looks like dictionary or hashtable syntax. Maybe you should check the syntax to declare the object you're trying to use? That declaration statement really does look like a list or array.

It's an asinine rule. There is no expectation of privacy in a public place. The common areas of a restricted access building are still public spaces, and security cameras provide a valuable deterrent to unlawful behavior.

I suppose she could have played along, returned the camera, waited a bit for things to cool down, and gotten something more discreet. But it doesn't change the fact that this is an HoA power trip. If they don't want residents installing cameras, then they shool install a full camera system in all common areas to be managed by a third party.

You mean where it rubs the nozzle on that little flange at the back? Yes that's normal. It's also a non printable area, so any damage to the pei coating is a non issue.

Did it even manage to extrude? Man, that must have printed terribly.

I've printed pla at petg temperature. At least it prints, even if it sags and blobs like crazy.

That bambu petg basic is problematic and I should have just ordered that material from Amazon instead. (I can see why they've discontinued it.)

In storage with the rest of the accessories.

In case a screw stripes or is lost on a later swap.

A while back in one of the sql subs a user had asked why chatgpt switching a cte to a subquery fixed their query.

It didn't. The LLM did fix the query, but it ALSO downgraded the cte the error was in to a subquery, masking what it had fixed from inexperienced eyes.

Readability is king. Their original query was easy to fix. The "fixed" one was actually hard to figure out.

Spares.

Screws are tiny, fragile things. Easy to lose, somewhat easy to damage (even hex screws can strip, they're just don't very often).

Switches don't route.

Broadcasts won't find each other because of the different network ID.

Hosts in different subnets on the same switch CAN still talk, however they can't find each other by IP. They can find each other by NetBIOS Broadcast (provided there's no vlan settings in the way). NetBIOS pre-dates IP, iirc.

If your computer wants to talk to another host, and has the IP (we'll assume it's either by IP or DNS succeeded and it now has an IP), it goes down its own internal routing table.

A routing table that, usually, has MySubnet->local and then a number of other subnets with their gateway, eventually ending in the default gateway.

There might be other gateways in between local and DGW, depending on network architecture.

So, network stack says "this IP isn't on my local subnet. So I'll go down my routing list to find the closest gateway to serve it."

It finds the upstream gateway that connects to the switch that other host should be on, sends the packet there. That switch can't reach the host, and the connection fails.

In the majority of cases, nothing will be able to reach that incorrectly connected host, because all the traffic is going to a different switch.

This is tangible even when house hunting. Equivalent homes with a significant price difference - the cheaper one often has higher fees.

And it really is the fees. Those fees come right off the top of your monthly when figuring out your budget.

Nope. They want to sell you a new vehicle and then sell your old vehicle for even more profit. This was a thing even when lots were always over stocked. Only difference now is the margin on the used vehicle is even higher, and it's easier to bully people into add-ons they don't want.

Only trade in when you are wanting to replace AND can't be bothered with selling it yourself.

It looks kinda cool going from a color to transparent.

That's excellent! Addictions can be hard to break, and you're proving yourself to be even harder!

Keep it up! It's something to be proud of!

They'll intentionally starve it to create delays and overruns. Then swoop in and "save" it right before an election.

The Herald knows its market demographic.

The Herald employs Bell.

Because Bell writes tweets sized for twitter.

So the Herald's main audience is Twitter users.

Does that mean Bell writes for Twits?

Up here in Canada we're enjoying the quiet of our American clients having their party.

I'm hoping to add a crapton more to an automation today.
