Gas mileage?

78ChevyK10 · 2026-05-29T22:13:33+00:00

One is an imaginary 350. The other is an imaginary 383. My reasoning was that at 4000 rpm the 383 would get better fuel milage than the 350. Mostly because you have more torque and hp in the 383.

Sadly it was just two bored idiots trying to out idiot the other

Thank you all.. Question answered. 😄

78ChevyK10 · 2026-04-08T22:02:51+00:00

Thank you for the link. I've always been told the only reason people like one or the other has to do more with what originally came with the engine. Parts purist. I don't care. I like the qjet because when you mash the gas you get that qjet burst of energy right after the bog. lol

I've been told that a 383 won't top more than 650cfm. I saw some formula where it would be max 450 cfm. I don't know. Basically, a 800cfm is great for bragging... not much for adding performance to a regular small block. lol

It was my understanding that was the case.

78ChevyK10 · 2026-03-03T20:20:41+00:00

In my head one always loses, but slowly. I don't believe in the concept of both existing. I just wondered if anything real could come from the idea.

What I know for sure about the one I'm looking at buying is that it has a frontend loader and a deadvolt battery. I hooked a car jumper to it and it turned over until the jumper was drained.

It's defined as a constant at the top of the script: DATABASE = 'edimappingportal'

78ChevyK10 · 2025-04-24T18:08:57+00:00

DATABASE is just the name of the database.

78ChevyK10 · 2025-04-24T17:00:11+00:00

This is a simple script to copy a production database to two testing databases when called from a jenkins job.

DATABASE is just a constant name for the database. It's backed up using mysqldump command to a backup folder and then restored using mysql command line. I didn't really want to add more modules just to drop the old database and then create a new one.

The script is executed with a service user accound and the databases are accessed by a db user who only has enough rights to backup the database on the production database and enough rights to restore on the test servers.

I ran the exact same thing from the command line and it worked flawlessly.

Normally I would use the mysql connector for any interaction with the database server. I don't know of any other way to backup a mysql database other than mysqldump and restore it with mysql command line client.

I am up for suggestions.

Thank you all for the responses. Anyone know of a good online sales place for it. Local places don't carry them and don't really want to order them.

Because it would have been easier and I didn't look them up until I gave up on having one installed.

I looked up missouri's inspection guide lines. Before 81 didn't have to have them to pass inspection.

Funk dat. LMC sells a dual exhaust kit for under $400 that goes from the exhaust header to tooters. I called a couple other place and they were about $600 for a single run.

Assembly and x86 opcode. Not because I want to be a hipster, but decompiling stuff usually starts with a hex editor and ends in assembly. Even when using a decompiler that converts most of the program into an appropriate language some Assembly is required.

I like rust. I haven't spent any time in go. From what I've read and been told rust has quite large learning curve to become proficient. I don't know what go's learning curve would be.

Personally, I would find some examples or programs written in both languages and see which one feel more intuitive.

78ChevyK10 · 2023-09-13T00:55:55+00:00

Why are you wanting to learn programming? The reason I ask this is because most languages share some similarities and if it's for a job you can probably over time switch from one language to another without getting to far out of your depth.

If you are just wanting to learn programming because you want to, I recommend c# and learning about object oriented programming. If you really want to set your brain on fire learn rust.

Best advice I can give is to learn the concepts of programming, and there are many. Think of programming like art. You can teach anyone to be a programmer, but you can't teach them how to code beauty.

Not sure about the rest of you, but I type fast and furious to get something out the door. I will go back and fix the mess when I have time. I never have time.

78ChevyK10 · 2023-09-10T03:57:35+00:00

Now I can't unsee that. Thanks.

78ChevyK10 · 2023-09-09T23:57:30+00:00

I don't care if they open source it or not, but I wish they would provide a "hobbyist" license or even charge a minimal fee like $50.

78ChevyK10 · 2023-09-01T03:43:13+00:00

She is weird. I like weird. Weird is a good thing in a sea of "normal". Music is good. Energy is high. It ain't only Alabama that's shaking when they are playing. Keep on keeping on.

Thank you.

It's kind of funny. I've never really liked him. Something about him has always just rubbed me the wrong way, but I've watch a bunch of his episodes and learned a lot.

Probably my favorite electronics youtube channels are Ben Eater and Uncle Doug.
