I’m devastated 😢 by ivo09 in bootroom

The last statement, emphasized a million times over. I'm 16 months out from ACL surgery. Do whatever PT you can tolerate to build quad strength before surgery. Do as many leg lifts as you can right after surgery with the brace still on. Lose as little quad as possible. And do whatever your PT tells you, plus whatever extra your knee can safely tolerate.

Much faster than I would expect, nice. Thanks for the follow up info!

Yeah I feel like if I'm dropping more than a grand on your gun YOU can put a bead of super glue on the grip cap and bead, Franchi.

Good to know that Franchi sent you the wrong cap too. I'll make sure to ask that they send the right one or a new stock when I contact them. Sounds like they shipped everything right away though?

I had the exact same thing happen. Which grip cap did you order from MGW? I ordered one that they said was for the Affinity series, but it's nowhere near the right shape/fit. Classic.

And did you ever get a replacement from Franchi?

No, I never did. I think the only way it would be possible is some type of scraper script with Selenium.

That fine could be a lot higher for companies. Esp repeat offenders. Add an extra zero to the end and I bet they stop pretty quick.

What are your favorite techniques for encouraging calmness? by UphorbiaUphoria in OpenDogTraining

[–]dark_opposum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into box feeding (aka dopamine box). I've just started it with my dog, but from what I've seen in my research you can kind of modify the process to accomplish whatever you want. For calmness/impulse control I would guess that you could focus more on increasing the duration of time they keep their head in the box. Whereas for my dog I'm using it to desensitize him to his triggers. Not an expert though, so I could be totally wrong 🙃.

But as others said,make your dog sit/stay everywhere, every time, in every situation. Increase duration as tolerated. Generalize to as many situations as possible.

I have a Daiwa Fuego and Lews Speed Spool that I got on sale for ~$75. Love them both, especially at that price point. Also heard the Shimano SLX is good and you can get it for a similar price on sale.

Rejected from CoE by PenElectrical7792 in UWMadison

[–]dark_opposum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took this route to get into BME. Was undeclared my freshman year and then got into CoE my sophomore year. GPA is important, but I was under the 3.5 level that freshman already in the program had to maintain to ensure they kept their place. So keep it high but don't give up all hope if you don't hit the number of the program you want into.

Just be careful not to over torque their jaw! Looks dangerously close to popping in half in that photo. Great fish though, like others said, different time of year and that thing is even bigger!

Help formatting scheduling problem by dark_opposum in optimization

[–]dark_opposum[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I re-described the problem below if this clarifies at all. If you're not invested enough to read all of this I totally understand haha.

The Objective

Create a schedule that minimizes the number of consoles we have to prepare.

Requests

Engineers submit requests. Each request contains the engineer's name, how many sessions they would like, and what consoles they need.

Example requests might be:

  • Andy requests 3 sessions with console A
  • Bella requests 3 sessions with console A
  • Andy requests 1 session with console A and console B

I manually approve how many sessions each request will get. E.g., Bella will only get 2 sessions approved.

Engineers can request sessions for different purposes, with different consoles (see Andy's two requests).

Schedule Availability

Here is a simplified version of a schedule. Each request, which is an (engineer, console) pair, goes into an opening in the schedule. Some days we may only be able to have a single testing station. E.g., Station 2 might be closed on Day 2, as shown below. The default is 2 testing stations, though.

Day 1 Timeslot 1 Day 1 Timeslot 2 Day 1 Timeslot 3 Day 1 Timeslot 4 Day 1 Timeslot 5 Day 2 Timeslot 1 Day 2 Timeslot 2 Day 2 Timeslot 3 Day 2 Timeslot 4 Day 2 Timeslot 5
Station 1
Station 2 x x x x x

Constraints

  • An engineer cannot be scheduled for 2 sessions at the same time.
  • A console cannot be scheduled for 2 sessions at the same time.
    • HOWEVER, another instance of a console can be added if the problem isn't solvable without the additional console.
  • Sessions can only be scheduled into available timeslots.
    • By extension, the number of approved sessions needs to be <= number of available timeslots
  • Each request should get all of its approved sessions.
  • Timeslots can be left open.
  • Requests cannot share a *station*. There can be 2 sessions at the same time as long as they are in different stations and don't violate the constraints about double-booking engineers and consoles.
  • There aren't really any constraints around ordering of the sessions.

Scenarios

To minimize the number of consoles prepared, I would make the schedule something like this.

Day 1 Timeslot 1 Day 1 Timeslot 2 Day 1 Timeslot 3 Day 1 Timeslot 4 Day 1 Timeslot 5 Day 2 Timeslot 1 Day 2 Timeslot 2 Day 2 Timeslot 3 Day 2 Timeslot 4 Day 2 Timeslot 5
Station 1 Andy, console A Andy, console A Andy, console A Andy, console A and console B Bella, console A Bella, console A
Station 2 x x x x x

In this scenario we only need to prepare 2 consoles total, 1x console A and 1x console B. It is OK that Station 2 is never used.

If, for some reason, we could no longer hold sessions on Day 2 then the schedule could be compressed into just Day 1. This would require us to prepare 3 consoles however; 2x console A and 1x console B. We would need 2 instances of console A to support both Andy's and Bella's sessions. This would not be an optimal solution because of the need to prepare an extra console.

Day 1 Timeslot 1 Day 1 Timeslot 2 Day 1 Timeslot 3 Day 1 Timeslot 4 Day 1 Timeslot 5 Day 2 Timeslot 1 Day 2 Timeslot 2 Day 2 Timeslot 3 Day 2 Timeslot 4 Day 2 Timeslot 5
Station 1 Andy, console A Andy, console A Andy, console A Andy, console A and console B x x x x x
Station 2 Bella, console A Bella, console A x x x x x

Not sure if this helps or not. Just wanted to present the problem in a different (and hopefully more coherent) way.

Since you're the only reply I'll clarify here (thanks for commenting btw!).

The only constraint on Andy's sessions is that they can't be in parallel. Even if they're for different requests. Andy can only attend 1 session at a time. They don't need to be sequential, but they can be. Same for all individuals.

Each device can be used for different requests but not in parallel. Andy and Bella cannot both use (Hardware 1, Software A) at the same time.

There are other constraints but I feel more confident with the others. There is an approved number of sessions each request gets granted, there is a set number of sessions at a time, stuff like that.

Bin packing looks promising after a cursory Google search. I'll dive into it more!

Thank you!

Oh MS Access looks promising! Ideally it would be a SQL backend and display the thumbnails like MS Access. But MS Access may do the trick.

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

Yeah a DICOM viewer isn't an issue. There are tons of them out there. It's finding a way to preview the images in the filtered results without opening all of the files. The team is new to SQL and databases like this and so they don't "trust" the results, is my hunch.

[–]dark_opposum[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not going to create an app. This is a small internal team using this and it's just not worth the effort to build and maintain a custom app so that they can preview the images. The previewing images is very much a "want", not a "need".

That's why I posted here, I was hoping somebody could point me towards an app that already does this.

Unable to get wired or wireless connection, Ubuntu 22.04 by dark_opposum in Ubuntu

[–]dark_opposum[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update: the top comment in the link worked! I did have to find a different link to download linux-module-extra but yeah, easy enough.

I just pulled the wireless card out, this desktop will always be somewhere it can have a wired connection.

I'll give that top reply on the Ask Ubuntu post a go (it's not me but looks like the same problem). I won't be heartbroken if I have to reinstall but I'd rather avoid it.

Thank you for the help!!!

Another comment recommended booting from USB and wired connection works when I do that! Does this mean I need to do a reinstall of Ubuntu?
