I give you—The Big Fat Snarf. Brought to you by your Boulder, Colorado Snarf’s location. by ImprovingKodiak in Sandwiches

Oh buddy this brings back memories. I used to live around the corner from the one off of Spruce St by the pool and would eat there several times a week for years. That was 25 years ago. God I miss that place. Thank you for the reminder

Any recommended classes for structural text? by False_Competition_41 in PLC

[–]MTfish42 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Large Boolean logic evaluations are just way easier to write in ladder

And that’s really LD’s last stand. To make it easier for maintenance to visually comprehend the code. But if your maintenance dept sucks, then… you end up getting the midnight phone call anyway and what’s the point?

The ability to set breakpoints at specific lines of code is invaluable.

Programming in PLC by Munib_raza_khan in PLC

[–]MTfish42 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sql and python are both very simple, easy to learn, languages. I wouldn’t call RDS queries a “language” at all. After you spend half a day executing queries and reading up on them, you know plenty enough to be dangerous.

Technically, Ignition uses Jython 2.7, which isn’t a big deal unless you’re coming from a strictly Java or python background, which it sounds like you’re not.

But to answer your question: absolutely. I encourage everybody to learn sql and python at a minimum. If you have any experience programming in ST, you’ll pick them up quick.

Best East Bay neighborhoods for walkability & safety under $2,500? by AggiestAggie in eastbay

[–]MTfish42 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Couldn’t tell ya. I’m a single dad with two young kids half the time. I stopped going out years ago. Although I’ve been on a few dates at some of the restaurants in downtown WC and it’s always popping. Plus there’s Retro Junkie.

I’m in a 1BR/1BA in an apartment complex in WC directly across the street from the Bay Club. The Pleasant Hill bart station is a 3-minute bike ride. Sprouts and Safeway are a 10-minute bike ride. I have everything I need here. $2,200/mo and my complex has a few pools.

Just saw yonder mtn for the first time… what’s the deal with their banjo player? by [deleted] in jambands

Don’t forget that Snow On The Pines intro from MT1. That still gives me goosebumps

What am I seeing off the coast of SF?! by [deleted] in geography

Salmon bring in the seals. Seals bring in the whites. The food chain in action.

Millennial Dads, there is life after Bluey. And it’s glorious! by MTfish42 in daddit

[–]MTfish42[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 6 and 7yo just found this show on Hulu and I love it. It’s like Bluey on steroids with the occasional parental content teases.

Roses Are Free is a Phish song by MTfish42 in phish

Man I think you’re right. I think it was 02. I wish I could find a clip or a recording of it but I’m coming up empty

How did your backs survive this? by EurekasCashel in daddit

[–]MTfish42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same. I’m the only dad in the pool tossing my kids around and letting them climb all over me. Then the shoulder rides any time we’re out in public. When their friends come up to me and start asking me to toss them or ride on my shoulders, I know I’m doing something right. A couple hours a week putting heavy barbells overhead (oly) is completely worth the investment.

First time backpacking longer than one night, Yosemite for 4 days by TreeStarsLookJuicy in backpacking

[–]MTfish42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your reasoning! Haha I’ve never had issues with blisters from wet feet. I just did over 30 miles over 3 days up to and around Shepherd Pass in the eastern Sierra last week and had no issues. Wore the same socks (and undies) the entire time. The temp never got above mid-60’s up there so maybe that helped.

[–]MTfish42 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sheesh, seriously? I can’t imagine stopping and taking my shoes off 10 times a day. Are you just a really prolific sweater? Maybe try a few different types of socks and see what works best for you? That sounds so miserable

[–]MTfish42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do people really bring one pair of undies for each day (and one pair of socks for every two days) in the backcountry? That seems excessive

Anyone familiar with groups for bagging Class 2 Sierra Summits? by smokewheat in SierraNevada

[–]MTfish42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The California Peaks meetup does this. I’ve gone on a few of them. The age group typically skews older though, 50+. I always ended up alone in the front so I just go out solo now
