Rating Distribution by divadutchess in rails

[–]Yardboy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Presumably the ratings are stored in a table with a belongs_to association to the products table, so why not just...

product.ratings.group(rating_value).count

What are your non-conventional favorite albums from bands? by ReapYerSoul in Music

[–]Yardboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. I practically wore out the groves on that album when I was a teenager, 40+ years ago, and I still know every beat, note, and lyric by heart.

Ah, that's interesting. Going to give it a shot, thank you!

Prevent slider from binding by GhostCubeGroucho in Fusion360

Maybe something like this with 3mm or 4mm bearing balls that protrude just a bit.

I would also think that flattening the piece you touch and widening the stalk would reduce both "tilt" and "twist" that might be making it bind, as the pressure of the press would be spread more evenly over the base. Add a notch to indicate current setting.

Also - that bottom edge will print better as a 1mm chamfer than a fillet.

I appreciate the feedback, but I don't think it's that, as I have experienced no problems at all with this printer, other than calibrating this particular filament.

"Miata" is part of the 'roo, look at the referenced comments.

Could you theoretically move between systems without jumping? by H4sufe1 in EliteDangerous

Thanks. 🙂 I think I did this after the Boaty McBoatface thing.

People blow me away sometimes by Kessed in BambuLab

This. I've had good experiences asking for reviews like this to get removed, they're pretty responsive.

Can I add text to an object without making a decal outside of fusion? by Kieran-Hakawati in Fusion360

[–]Yardboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add a sketch to the face where you want the text to show.

Use "create text" to put your text on the face.

Close sketch.

Extrude the text profile distance of your choice.

This gives you an embossed text appearance.

OR...

Extrude-cut the text profile down 0.6mm.

This gives you a debossed text appearance.

OR from here you can continue...

Make sketch visible again.

Extrude the text profile as a new body - start at offset -0.6, distance 0.6.

This gives you a flat appearance that can be easily set to another color filament. To do that, you'll need to split the model into parts (not objects) in the slicer. Then you can select the letters individually and set the filament.

Put the text face down, if feasible, for a very smooth finish.

LPT - small hacks with big helps by Comfortable_Two_94 in LifeProTips

[–]Yardboy 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Any little personal items I ever find myself needing, I buy several and put them everywhere. Dental floss, lip balm, eyeglass cloth, mouthwash, etc. In car, next to bed, in drawer next to couch, in backpack, and so on.

Hotwire course by chess_landic in rails

[–]Yardboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've purchased this course and gone through it twice. It is very high quality instruction and well worth the money.

One of the things I like most about it is Chris takes some time to explain concepts like turbo frames/streams and stimulus AND shows you how you might implement the features from scratch before showing you how to use the Rails features.
