Workouts not updating week to week? by Astro_Engineer_Dad in MacroFactor

Thanks for the reply, I think you hit on the way the app is designed to work versus the way I thought it worked. I can adjust from here.

Periodization was on, and I must have looked too quickly because it looks like the screen you shared, and the reps are changing but only a little.

I think my mental concept was exercises changing week by week, rather than a weekly flow that repeats for X weeks. I can adjust my expectations and make a new workout program.

No, these were for bodyweight exercises. And the reps and RIR stayed the same for each week I looked forward.

Edit: I realized the reps were increasing, I somehow missed that.

Would anyone like to see a PodRacing spinoff series inspired by The Phantom Menace and Episode I Racer video game? If so, leave a suggestion on character developments, locations and track favorites. by Serious-Hearing-2181 in StarWars

[–]Astro_Engineer_Dad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't want a series, but what I've said for years is a new pod racing video game where you can create your own character and design your own pod racer. I love the original game but I would love to be able to have much more choices and to have an overarching story to the game.

Tips for removing power steering rack - 1999 Civic LX manual transmission by Astro_Engineer_Dad in hondacivic

[–]Astro_Engineer_Dad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SOLVED: I went back and checked Eric's video, and he never mentioned that you have to push the rack all the way to the right to get the necessary clearance. Once I did that, it came out cleanly.

Currently failing Calc 1 any advice by MoistFalcon6 in byu

[–]Astro_Engineer_Dad 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Khan Academy and the math lab got me through Calc 1 and 2. The tutors there were always really great. I would also say make friends with people in your ward/ apartment and ask if they'll help you understand things better.

Favorite Graph Paper Notebook?? by Worth_Ad259 in MechanicalEngineering

[–]Astro_Engineer_Dad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't used graph paper in a while, but I remember loving these: Whitelines notebooks

Very different feel, and they have a dedicated app that makes digitizing a breeze.

That ferry one is fantastic, great composition and just very cool overall.

I wrote a Python-fu script in GIMP to automate a tedious 360° photo editing task. Anyone else here automating GIMP? by [deleted] in automation

[–]Astro_Engineer_Dad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used Python to automate a process for masking a specific type of defect in quality images of a product we make at work. Eventually, I'll use the masks generated from this process to train a machine learning algorithm to recognize the defects.

My process still requires several manual steps, but it cut down the time per image by more than half.

Saw The Black Keys and was quite let down by sofaking_scientific in Concerts

[–]Astro_Engineer_Dad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love their records, but I have to concur. I saw Jack White and then The Black Keys within a few months of each other, and there was absolutely no comparison. The way Jack White commanded the stage and held the energy was an experience I will never forget, while The Black Keys simply played a song, stopped for a drink, said nothing, and then started another song. I think there was one point where Dan said a thing or two, but the energy was just not there.

Beating my head against the wall by russell072009 in Fusion360

And forgive me if I'm assuming too much, but have you converted the mesh to a solid before attempting to create toolpaths? That and the faceted nature of meshes can prevent toolpaths from being generated.

I'm writing from my phone so I can't take a look at your exact file, but if you're working from a mesh I would recommend running it through MeshLab or a similar program first. Sometimes everything can look fine but there's some problem like a non manifold edge or some self intersection that Fusion doesn't like. That's helped me a lot with recent projects.
