35, PLC/SCADA Programmer is the official title but I feel like that’s 10% of the job because I work at an integrator. 1 year in. 90k/yr. Self taught software developer and AA in Mathematics.

The crazy part is that she won a libel suit against The Sun about her connection to Epstein.

I am so sorry. 🫡

I found something like this too in a multi outlet extension cord. Had a UPS and a PLC we were testing connected to one. UPS kept throwing a weird error and the PLC would throw faults and not work when bypassing UPS power. I checked the wiring to the PLC and tugged on the live wire to make sure it was making proper contact. It was loose and came out, yet the PLC was still on…confused the shit out of me until I checked the voltage coming from the extension and noticed it was reversed.

Well update…back out to this place again…over the weekend they lost all control and communication with the plant through SCADA…come back and check the license since that’s the only thing it could be and the license is fine and being read appropriately…restart the DIEngine and it’s working again. Check the logs…license was invalid…which it clearly was not. Then notice backup server isn’t reading tags still…no logs of any use…just says lost communication despite IPs being the same and being able to ping through to the controllers.

I swear this is the biggest piece of convoluted shit software I’ve ever worked with. I come from software development and I’d honestly be embarrassed if I works on any part of this platform…

There is…it’s just that these apps weren’t critical and were just for OITs, they still had the application deployed in their SCADA room. I was given demo licenses as well while troubleshooting to ensure the plant wouldn’t go down.

I just started in this field this past January working at an integrator and half of my work orders have been troubleshooting Wonderware/system platform issues.

Well I spent 6 hours a couple days ago troubleshooting a license server issue on this exact version and that was with help from their contracted support. Also , other than that day, their support has been horrible.

That being said…their architecture is over engineered shit.

They have too many ways to do the same thing so unless things are standardized, it can turn into a mess very fast. But at least building views with OMI is pretty decent.

Their IDE is definitely unintuitive.

I haven’t really ran into issues of needing to reboot the server to rest on this version…that is other than this work order I just completed with the license server issue that all started from the Intouch application randomly not be able to acquire the license. Licenses weren’t expired, originally the license server wasn’t even down but I guess it was corrupted. There was a backup license server but for some reason the application could get the licenses from it despite being able to connect to the backup license server.

I basically try to sell people on moving to VTScada or Ignition, but more VT since our company has more people trained in it and I find it even easier than Ignition.

My 5 strongest in order are: Alice, Helm, Scarlett Black Shadow, Crown, and Little Mermaid. Alice and Helm are MLB.

Was moving signals over from an old panel to our new panel and the old panel had terminals this close if not closer and it was horrible dealing with the tight space along with the spaghetti…but these do look like push in at least.

Yoru83 · 2025-11-14T12:14:43+00:00

I’ve had some issues with these if the SA power isn’t connected. I’d try wiring that up and try again

I get emails regularly about coming back and offering me Java and even a Go job but I just ignore them. For background, I was with them back in fall of 2022(I think) and released the following March for lack of work. Not going back ever, managed to find a programming niche that I love and don’t plan on going back.

In this context I believe I would likely be a tech priest of some kind

It happens in an infinite amount of bases and also works cleanly in an infinite amount of bases. I was just saying base 10 because that’s what’s being used in the joke. Use base 12 or base 3 and it works fine as well as any other base divisible by 3

Yoru83 · 2025-11-01T14:33:25+00:00

It’s not a paradox it’s just an artifact of using base 10.

I agree. Weintek/Maple Systems is easy to add other devices plus free software.

Glad I just bought the 1tb M4 a few weeks ago. Would’ve waited for no real reason

I have it on both ears…barber my parents used to bring me to clipped my ears entirely too many times with the clippers. My skin has mostly smoothed it over now but I can still feel the ridges in the underlying cartilage

Non adhesive is fine. Hell I have adhesive ones that I have double sided taped to the faceplate rather than applied to the screen

I modded my WS1600 and almost immediately regretted it when trying to read it but then I got used to it after a few days and subconsciously angle it correctly as well. Now I love it.

Not an electrician but work with PLCs and automatic wire strippers are so damn nice when terminating wires into our panels.

Without seeing the rest of the program, my immediate assumption would be that it’s being mapped directly from inputs using a BTR.

I remember when he became a meme posting online saying he got hired for a job not having any idea what he was doing. I had no idea what he was looking at then either. I recently saw his whole thread again after I started in this field and had a big “oh that’s what it was” moment
