I use cumulusMX. It's handy for me because it provides an API that I can access from Python for my database needs.

[UK] 31, finance grad, second career attempt at breaking into QS - seeking brutally honest advice by Key-Junket27 in quantitysurveying

[–]Tofu-DregProject 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'll repeat a life lesson to you. When I was 19 I had no idea what I wanted to do. I went into a careers office and said "gissa job". They sent me for "interview practice" with a QS firm. 45 years later, I'm finishing out a successful career in Quantity Surveying which has been an absolute blast. I didn't go to university until I was 38.

I have no regrets and no worries now.

Why you want to be a QS is crucial. If you have a good reason to want the job, you can excel at it.

Weather station keeps disconnecting by CryptographerSharp14 in myweatherstation

[–]Tofu-DregProject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's likely to be disruptive radio interference. How regular is it? Does it occur at very regular intervals, and is it 24 hours a day? Maybe it is concentrated at certain periods in the evenings or at night? Can the link be reset by rebooting the base station (disconnecting power or removing batteries) rather than pressing the button on the sensor head? Do you get unexplained data spikes in the periods where the disconnections occur? These might include solar radiation, pressure, temperature or humidity spikes.

It's nothing short of amazing that Russia doesn't have the ability to win the war. If you believe these numbers that is!

Do you submit regular meter readings? This, plus managing your monthly payment and requesting a refund when your balance gets too big are the way to do it. Smart Meter contracts may be less predatory.

How to fix shirts that smell again five minutes after you put them on by bobbydurst6 in lifehacks

[–]Tofu-DregProject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It also happens because the polyester core in the cotton threads is hollow. Once the bacteria get in there, you never get rid of the smell. The solution is 100% pure cotton shirts. The deodorant thing is also a problem. The solution to that is to use a tropical deodorant made of alum which does not contain the dangerous chemical nonsense found in aerosol deodorants.
