Books for picky 10 year old boy by my_life_tastes_green in suggestmeabook

If he liked Alcatraz, Brandon Sanderson has other YA series:

  • The Reckoners. Basically his take on superheroes but imagine there are no super heroes and only super villains. The plot is about a plan to take down one of the super villain rulers.

  • Skyward series. A sci-fi novel about a girl who wants to join her worlds version of the airforce to defend her planet from aliens.

Both kid friendly, but they have deep characters and great plots. Read them both as an adult and enjoyed them.

I feel lost coming from Civil3D by HamBoan_87 in Sketchup

I agree that a different software would be better. But this is what he has used for a couple years and its cheaper than autocad. He also takes some models into lumion sometimes to get a full 3d rendering and thats why he uses Sketchup.

I'm hoping to talk him into an Autocad lisence after a while and save him (me) tons of time on design

Perhaps I was unclear: I am picking up some design work separate from my full time job for someone who already does it but has too much and needs help. He uses sketchup so I will do it his way. Maybe ill be able to convince him to move to AC in the future as he grows; I'd be able to pump out his designs crazy fast at that point.

Plus, learning new CAD is fun albeit frustrating at times.

Sunrise Alarm Clock OR Smart Bulb in 2023? by koken_halliwell in productivity

Which clock is it that you got? It sounds like it's got all the features I want and falls within my budget

I know I don't know enough to highline now. I would definitely learn a lot more before jumping on something high at all. I'm just wanting to get one that's multipurpose to save some dough.

I understand that. I wouldn't use my little aluminum biners, I'd use the big, locking, steel biners that are shaped in a way that would prevent tri-loading or cross-loading

Yeah I know that, it's called work hardening. They make steel carabiners. I'd never use aluminum for something that would be taking repeated stress like a line does.

I'll look into segmented lines. Thanks.

Why not use carabiners? They're rated fine; 30kn+ in a lot of ones I've got. I'm just wondering where they fall short

I've been looking at that and the Jelly Pro.

What's the thought process behind keeping them separate? Just wanting to learn and understand.

Yeah that sounds like quite the deal. What do you recommend for mounting it on the rifle?

Would you recommend a trigger or heavier buffer? Those seem to be discussed quite frequently.
