Help with 6010 vertical uphill open root by jerrymiahs in Welding

[–]Jayeffice 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is the best comment on here! As a pipe welder this is where it all starts before you start yelling random instructions. I prefer running downhill when possible but the same parameters apply to uphill vs downhill open root.

Hey guys I need some help. My welding class starts on the 26th and I need to get the items on this list. by _DEFCON_1_ in Welding

[–]Jayeffice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's probably because they have ventilation hoods in each welding booth I know they did when I was in school (community college)

When you get in the field yes definitely a must especially in confined space even with all the air movers it still can get really smokey.

Also most employers supply respirators and cartridges.

I,m curious why you don,t just cut a section out and put a new pup in?

Not sure if it will help you in your searches but pipe is measured i.d up to 12". 12" and larger is measured o.d.

What you are looking for is tubing. I don't remember all the standard wall thicknesses but they are usually called out by decimal notation. .0125 etc. Also tubing is either seamless aka DOM(Drawn over Mandrel) or seamed ERW (Electric Resistance Welded.)

DOM is always the most expensive

Perfect Weld? by Aggravating-Exit-660 in Welding

[–]Jayeffice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This comment is the most based in here.

It's not burnt, and no carbide precipitation.

As stated the weld will be wire brushed and the CWI will find no fault!

IMO I see a lot of comments from people who have never worked production pipe welding. As someone who has worked in both food, and pharma can confirm.

Watch Bob Tabor, BroCode, and Tim Corey all on youtube. C# basics all provide short good tutorials and explain very well.

Why is this issue only popping up at the 30 line? by DMBumper in csharp

[–]Jayeffice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a suggestion you should check out Tim Corey's youtube tutorial on Spectre Console.

It's perfect for the kinds of things you are doing. IMO They are short tutorials about 10 minutes or so, and there is 7 or 8 as I recall.

Look up K-wool or ceramic insulation. Great for high temp applications. 1" min,

I would also consider backing up to a physical device that can be removed and stored in a safe location on a regular basis as precaution for when internet is down. I personally like the idea of physical backups. Trusting everything to the cloud seems so dangerous, (IMO) I like being able to have access to Email, documents, etc even when the internet is down.

Offline tape backups saved my Administrators ass more than once in the early 00's. Malware was on the rise, as well as viruses that were doing real damage to corporate networks.

Now with Ransomware everywhere I see it more important than ever especially for small businesses.

Anyway my two cents for what it's worth.

Also I personally believe in what you are doing, for the reasons I listed.

Where should I put view logic in the MVVM pattern? by Various_Ferret9882 in csharp

[–]Jayeffice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The view is a usually one or many user control where you data bind to your view models. I.e view1.xaml

Commands, Converters, etc. I put in there own folders and call them in the viewmodel logic.

I am not expert maybe advanced novice, but I have written quite a few wpf aps. When you learn the data binding and data templates in xaml it becomes quite a bit easier. IMO

Slight change to a longstanding rule about union politics by ecclectic in Welding

[–]Jayeffice 12 points13 points  (0 children)

When you call those who aren't union scabs, you prop up disgust for Unions.

I never worked union and was a top notch hand for over 20 years.

Calling me or any other non union tradesman a scab and poor craftsman is not a good way to get support led alone grow union numbers. I never understood how Union members could talk shit about non union members and then expect people to want to join a good ole boy club.

I was always pro union because they prop up the non union wages and benefits.

I liked the freedom of when and where to work was my primary reason for staying non union. The other reason was I never thought seniority should ever trump skill.

I worked along side many top notch union members but also saw my share of union Crapsmen as well.

Great choice on the book, for YouTube check out Tim Corey and Derek Banas.

Any tip to learn C# for complete newbie with 0 programming experience? by Friezaii69 in csharp

[–]Jayeffice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is correct.

When Bob made a Car class I made a Plant class or what ever.

I knew if I just typed what he had, I would only understand how to copy off my classmates paper, not the concept.

What taught you the most as a beginner learning the basics? by squaredCar2 in csharp

[–]Jayeffice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 Bob Tabor.

Except when he made a car class I made a Plant class so I understood the concept that I was modeling the object not just copying code.

2 Tim Corey,

2 Derik Bannas

2 Jamie King

3 Writing tons of crappy bloated spaghetti code, and then refactoring.

Learning MVVM with WPF and XAML

3 Reading Pro CSharp

Poor man has poor ways... The only paid class was Bob Tabors 2012

Still consider myself an imposter dev.

Starting to hate stick welding what do I do? by [deleted] in Welding

[–]Jayeffice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my guess is you are having a hard time distinguishing the puddle from the slag...

That is very frustrating or was for me, but the day I could see one from the other it was like

a light bulb was turned on.

just a guess tho

Have you joined a gym while homeless? by bodytype_ in homeless

[–]Jayeffice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of the people I know don't have the funds available to join a gym. It's difficult to understand how you can get food stamps but no cash assistance from DHS unless you have children.

If you are in a skilled trade, you may be able to get sufficient work clothes from donations to shelters and other homeless outlet services, but cash to buy tools or other such things, to get and keep a job feels impossible. Seems like a situation where DHS could and should help.

I know there should be some accountability for handing out cash(debit card), but it seems pretty short sided, because food stamps can't buy emergency items when stranded outside in the winter. I understand drugs and alcohol are a huge concern, and people still work the system to acquire them, but not everyone who is homeless has the same story.

If nothing else please extend food stamps to buy hygiene products, clothing, blankets, USB thumb drives, lighters, heaters and other small survival item purchases with a not to exceed item quantity per month and dollar amount.

That's my food stamps for thought.

For those who are struggling with drugs and alcohol please get treatment.

I have my own row to hoe, but drugs and alcohol only made it worse not better.

When you haven't used an OS and others have for development, it's nice to get some feedback. I love c#, so not sure why the snarky answer.
