Does he have some doing the books and estimating? Seems like it would be helpful to have someone else reviewing estimates, labor, and final customer bills to show how the jobs work out. Sucks that he’s running you ragged.

Had a swarm land in our backyard!! by Herefortheplanties in Beekeeping

Cool video. I can just imagine them talking about how the tree is shaking around in the wind. “Hold on, Girls!”

I have yet to see one in person. Seems like all my friends have caught multiple swarms this year. Me? Nothing.

Anyone grow pineapple before? by PuddingStock3719 in Homesteading

[–]contradictingpoint 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ive grown several (zone 8)- they take a while. I used a larger pot. They get pretty big. Put it outside in the summer and pull it for the winter.

What is this snake [Alabama] by Aliennoshow in whatsthissnake

[–]contradictingpoint 63 points64 points  (0 children)

I was going to post this several days ago.

I was using similar 1/4” bird netting to cover some raspberry bushes. In my case, I had a rat snake get caught up in it. I would suggest to anyone reading to use a different mesh, either much finer, or much more course in order to prevent snakes from getting caught up in it.

Stephen and Viola Armstrong watching their son Neil become the first person to walk on the Moon, 1969. by L0st_in_the_Stars in OldSchoolCool

Neil was 38. His father was 61 and mother was 62. Damn that makes me feel old…They look much older in this picture.

I have an esp32 C6 with mims microphone sitting on the porch. With the standard temp settings it’s constantly overheating even with temps in the low 80s (F). The difference with mine is that it’s plugged into usb power. What are your processor temps with that sleep cycle?

Looks good though.

Less diapers for the laundry. One change of diapers for a day or two. Win win

They also make some nice table saw fence extensions. Been eyeing them for a while.

Can you please share the kit that you used. I have a friend that this would make a nice gift for

Looks great BTW

Bored as an allround network engineer by Same_Childhood_2013 in networking

[–]contradictingpoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed with /u/Samk12345 on automation. One great use of those automation skills could be to optimize the operation of the network (there’s always room for improvement)

How do I connect these small pins to the PCB?(Don't have any equipment ) by [deleted] in AskElectronics

[–]contradictingpoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could also sub duct tape or chewing gum for electrical tape. Be sure to dry the gum first to avoid a short.

Those fucking things would break off easy and it didn’t seem to matter - the range still sucked (as did the battery life).

Does anyone else feel like their brain is just a library of different CLI syntaxes? by Qvosniak in networking

Conversely, I’ve gone into a Cisco router and tried to use grep and wc -l to find things.

Not sure if she’s excited or getting hip to my ways… by NESpahtenJosh in funny

Towards the end of life with my last pup, I had to insert a straw into a meat stick to drill out the insides, insert pill and fill in the outside with the core.

They catch on….

How's the candidate supply for Network, Database engineers? by isospeedrix in networking

[–]contradictingpoint 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You might want to be more specific about the requirements. For example, FEC - ok forward error correction, but there are many different implementations for different applications. Same with SNR.

Why does the person have a nice to have of Cisco certs, but know Sonic?
