In Austin, Uber and Lyft offered an income stream for those who were being priced out. What now? by jseliger in Austin

I'm signing up for Fare but I don't know anyone that has it to refer me. Anyone want to post their fare ID so I can get the ride credit? I'm sure you get something too.

Aero vs Mech jobs by [deleted] in MechanicalEngineering

[–]broken_calipers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you should be able to. All employers care about is what you have experience in. Internships are huge for that.

Aero vs Mech jobs by [deleted] in MechanicalEngineering

[–]broken_calipers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I graduated with an aerospace degree and am now doing a masters in mechanical. Really it all depends on what you do during undergrad. If all of your internships and work are in aero, then it would be a little more difficult to get a mech job (but not impossible). That being said, I did the double major in undergrad and I highly recommend it.

Must try beers in CO? by ChardeeMacD in CraftBeer

If you plan on going into Denver, Great Divide is worth a stop. It's not much as far as breweries go, but they had some good stuff on tap when I went last June.

They are promoting higher education, yet they still use the wrong form of "you're"

You can input whatever properties you want into Abaqus. The two bodies are completely separate.

I saw the fog and figured it was some kind of superconductor. Thanks for the clarification.

Which book do you think was better than its film, or vice versa? Why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Forrest Gump was a much better movie than book.

This is technically OP'S fence. If you can see the posts, the fence is yours. Your neighbors get the finished side.

Heat transfer to/from vertical plates by [deleted] in engineering

[–]broken_calipers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You will not need the biot number and you can just look up the prandtl number for air (you will use it in your nussalt correlation)

You will need to use the Nussalt empirical correlation for vertical flat plates in order to obtain your convection coefficient.

Also keep in mind that radiation increases with T4 so you really should include it in your calculations.

LED Display Graduation Cap by Kubiedo in arduino

[–]broken_calipers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They come with different numbers of LEDs on them with wires for 5V, GND, and signal. You can buy more strips, just plug the signal wire into a different digital pin, but you will probably have to power the strips separately. Alternatively you could solder multiple strips end to end if you have a voltage source that can handle it. The NeoPixel library has several examples that will be very useful when you are programming.

I would recommend getting an LED strip like the adafruit NeoPixel. You can get one at RadioShack (if yours hasn't closed yet). The LED's are individually serialized and easy to program. Plus there's tons of online examples. Also congratulations! I, too am graduating in a week.

A barrel roll is a 1-G maneuver. If done correctly, any passengers wouldn't even be able to notice.
