    Threadminder

    I don't see the round table in that threadminder. I added a watch, but it still doesn't show up and I don't see a clean way to store a shortcut to the RT

    Hot Tub on Elevated Balcony

    You could, and probably should, tell your client that the design will not be rated for anything like a hot tub should they, or future owners, want to add a hot tub, and possibly document that in your drawings? I'd be concerned that if you don't do so in writing, that they might add a hot tub...

    Looping on a single cell until I reach approximately 100% stress ratio

    Excel also has a Solver that you can goal seek a cell value based on changing one or more other cells. I used that feature quite a bit for work TTFN (ta ta for now) I can do absolutely anything. I'm an expert! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKorP55Aqvg faq731-376 forum1529 Entire Forum list...

    FEMA's Outdated Flood Zone Maps

    Boeing again pt2.

    "broken up" really doesn't describe the condition to me, given the widespread debris field. It was either an impact or explosion; the former would not be Boeing's fault, while the latter might be, but an explosion after 8 years in orbit seems unlikely. TTFN (ta ta for now) I can do absolutely...

    Please help me

    For Youtube, there's also https://www.youtube.com/@pnachtwey who tends to be a bit pedantic, yet extremely knowledgeable in the area of control theory and spends quite a bit of energy on PID, which is the default method for industrial feedback controls and servos.

    Tesla Cybercab reveal

    Pretty much any big city in the US. Almost all of the casinos in Las Vegas used to have free parking, and now, it's rare to find one that doesn't. Almost anywhere you go in California, they charge either a resort fee or explicit parking fee. TTFN (ta ta for now) I can do absolutely anything...

    Uh, yeah, I think that's the point of going to college. Moreoever, for your chosen specialty, you'd also need solid classes in control theory, which could take a couple of classes. TTFN (ta ta for now) I can do absolutely anything. I'm an expert! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKorP55Aqvg...

    Boeing again pt2.

    Few, if any, CEOs ever really get graded on DEI, because they ALL get graded on profits, and no CEO is going to survive by giving up share value. The reality is that corporate governance had changed for the worse by focusing on profits and share values well before most of the people harping...

    MATLAB/Octave

    Not to throw a monkey wrench into the mix, but another possibility is Python, which is a more general purpose programming environment with a huge userbase with community supported analysis packages. Matlab is, of course, fee-based, and they have an incentive to constantly maintain and improve...

    Regadring thermocouple sensor and calibration

    2: Polarity has to be correct; the thermocouple junction produces a potential difference that is a function of the two different metals in the junction, and swapping leads inverts the apparent potential and will result in a bogus reading. This is why thermocouple couple connectors are usually...

    Hot Tub on Elevated Balcony

    Weight sounds plausible https://www.costco.com/evolution-spas-highlands-75-jet%2c-5-or-6-person-spa.product.100730734.html 400 gal + 650 lb (dry weight) + 6*180 lb = 5068 lb TTFN (ta ta for now) I can do absolutely anything. I'm an expert! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKorP55Aqvg...

    Doubt Hard Disk 2.5 + case

    OK, then it might just be coincidence; I once ejected a drive at the airport, and accidently flung it about 5 ft onto a counter side and the floor, without any issues, but YMMV. TTFN (ta ta for now) I can do absolutely anything. I'm an expert! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKorP55Aqvg...

    Doubt Hard Disk 2.5 + case

    Did you actually see the notification that it was safe to remove the disk? I find that my Windows seemingly likes to hang on to my disks and often have to shut down the computer to get "clean" eject". If you didn't see the notification, then it's possible some data got corrupted. Or, it's...
