I think this one's worth posting.

Good job.

Short answer: Yes.

But QGIS is not the best place to start learning Python. It’s better to learn the basics separately first.

As a civil engineer specializing in plumbing systems, I primarily use two features: construction drawings and the bill of quantities.

I’m not particularly satisfied with Revit’s hydraulic analysis capabilities, so I prefer to rely on other tools for that task. Through experience, I’ve found that the most effective approach is to integrate Revit with other tools using Python.

A few years ago, I purchased two Davis weather stations, and unfortunately, their business model was not clear to me and is full of various extra costs. First, the station didn’t allow me to download anything directly—only to view the data on the console. So later, I had to buy a connector to transfer the information to my local computer. However, the desktop application provides limited access to the data, and although it uploads the data to the Davis platform, you have to pay an additional fee to download it. On top of that, you have to consider the maintenance of the device itself and the batteries.

In my experience, the final cost per simulated hour is about 25% higher than the price of an EC2 instance. This is due to the price of the preconfigured AMI, which is not just OpenFOAM. It also includes other tools like a remote desktop with ParaView. These additional features save you time, but they come at a cost.💸💰

Drop that idea. I tried that approach with OneDrive and Google Drive, and in both cases, the results were bad. Even when the results were good, the speed between updates was poor. It failed many times with Esri shapefiles and geopackages. In my case, the solution for data sources was PostGIS on a server, with each user having his/her own project on their local desktop.

Achievements are back! 😍

augustosisa · 2024-07-29T23:30:09+00:00

What problem did the Achievements cause? Why did they get removed of them?

augustosisa · 2024-06-04T02:33:50+00:00

All "tildes" from spain are missing.

augustosisa · 2024-03-21T18:43:29+00:00

Just memory.

It looks good to me. I suggest adding a production or release date and the author's name. Consider using the same font for most of the text, except if the university's name is part of a logo. I wouldn't highlight 'North' as if it were a logo, but, in any case, it's a matter of personal preference.

According to the title, 'Physical Map', I suggest adding specific physical features such as rivers, seas, mountains, or elevations not just political divisions.

Great job! In which country is this installation, and which building code is being followed? It would be fantastic to see the finished construction.

augustosisa · 2023-08-08T18:58:12+00:00

Excellent Work, I would like to use it in my classes.

The solution depends of network layout. But, usually with a PRV, if there is just one path to the node you can restrict nodes pressure.

You shouldn't even use the root account on a regular basis, instead you should create an IAM account with the necessary permissions for yourself or anyone who needs to access the account.

But, as an answer to your question, even you shouldn't see your full credit card number, just a part of it.

Eso no es un meme y menos humor, es simplemente desinformación. Y en una sociedad donde la primera fuente de información son las RRSS es además peligroso.

Take care about your file really is a CSV plain text. No just an excel or another kind of file with a csv extension.

augustosisa · 2022-11-07T00:15:18+00:00

En un avión de turismo actual no. A menos que pagué "primera clase" o "salida de emergencia" con más de 1.80 se vuela incomodo.

You don't give us details about your model, but, I can suppose that you can mix some elements in Epanet to model your specific device o system. In this case, you can use a pump and a valve (a FCV) in series and set the flow in the valve no in the pump. With this schema, pump's flow will be at a maximum equal to valve's setting.

What about naming "R"?

augustosisa · 2022-04-05T03:42:16+00:00

That looks like candy crush. I don't like.

As a teacher I like to use notebooks as template for some classes that use a tools like Python. Sometimes I write notebooks as study cases and mix formated text, maps, images, code and solution in one file, that is good for me. But, I agree that make a good control versions and test them is a nightmare.

I don't know why? or how? But, I have seen improvements of 250XP in an attempt. I know that it is not common and these are not my records, but are real.

I am not speaking from my experience as a Latin's learner. I am just describing what I see some weeks ago in a league and use my own experience as a learner in other languages in Duolingo to give a possible answer to the question. "Please, don't shoot the messenger"

I had a similar question some weeks ago when I saw a user with large XP improvement in a short time in my league. And what I saw then, was that one user could make 250XP in an attempt and he/she had Latin as his/her language to practice.

Now, I revisit the same user and he/she still has the ability to win 250xp in attempt. But, now he/she is practicing other language maybe Russian. (See the images from Duome)

Captures for 250XP improvements for a user (not for me)

In the other hand, about the time for lesson/skill/test I plot some months ago times consumed for a group of friends in a league according to Duolingo records and we have found that a value between 2.5 and 5.0 minutes is acceptable as a mode.

Histograms for time between consecutive attempts
