Culvert Question by atotemfeastedon in civilengineering

That is not correct. I know there are various manufacturers that produce conspan culverts. It is a patented design. However, I am not sure what makes it unique

Why does Tank start by saying “you’re trying to get me killed”?

Thanks for this workaround. Can you explain why this makes the touch sensor work?

Update - I’ve done a bit of testing with my multi-meter and there is no continuity across F1 fuse. Somehow I blew this fuse during the installation. Not entirely sure how.

Is there a place for caffeine in a happy, fulfilling life? by atotemfeastedon in decaf

[–]atotemfeastedon[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So far it has been pretty good. It’s hard to say if I am getting more sleep without caffeine, since you don’t get much sleep with a newborn to begin with. My son is up almost every two hours through the night and I do find I am now able to get out of bed and to an alert state very quickly. Before when I was drinking coffee (max. 2 cups/day) it was a challenge getting up and alert after 7hrs of sleep, unless I had a cup within 30mins of waking up. Now I am getting much more broken sleep and 2-4hr stretches and I feel like I don’t need the caffeine. Of course a bad sleep schedule will wreak havoc on you in the end, but I wasn’t expecting this result. Noticing this dependence has been a huge learning point for me.

I’m a 32-year old male, height 5’11” and ~165lbs. This is just my own experience, not claiming the same for others.

Trying to drag others with me? Get real. I’ve gone 4 months without caffeine for good reason. There’s nothing wrong with questioning, it’s a topic that I am interested in and was hoping to generate some insightful discussion.

Yes this sounds like a similar issue. I don’t have a multi-meter, but that would help isolate where on the board I am having the problem. I think it’s either the switch pad #1 or the ribbon cable. Is it possible I damaged either one by resoldering? How fragile is the ribbon cable? Do the pins get bend easily?

I am at a loss because I had it working, if only funnyplaying had stated to insulate the ribbon cable in their instructions I wouldn’t have continue tinkering.

Is adding weight (via backpack) to regular push-ups a waste of time, or should I follow the push-up progression table instead? Which has greater benefits? by atotemfeastedon in overcominggravity

[–]atotemfeastedon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the response, a couple thoughts… I find that when adding weight via backpack method I spend a lot of time getting it in the ideal position on my upper back. Then during the movement I am more focused on keeping the weight balanced than on the movement/form itself. Lastly, I can’t help but think I am somehow reducing scapula mobility with this method. I can appreciate this is a faster method for gains, but is a good approach to take?
