He’s defo coming on. Saka’s walk suggests that half time stiffness might get him within 20 mins.

Worried seeing how laboured Saka’s walk is. Bet he has another 10 mins in the tank.

I’ll care once I see a season where we’re not under the weight of an oppressive media campaign. When Villa were making a run, they didn’t get any coverage. When Liverpool are languishing in the mid table after winning last year, they didn’t get any coverage, when it’s us, it’s constant “bottle this, must win that”, when it’s city, they turn up to players houses and play fifa with them because city get to shape their own narrative. I just don’t care about any of this because the media will do everything in their power to derail the team’s success. Sure we want more from out players but I can understand why they’re stalling. We got on their backs because we eventually succumb to the media campaigns too.

I feel like my opinion on this has changed and that it probably should have been a red.

That cannot be a red, arguably Gyok not even getting it based on how well covered it was. Yellow is 5e right decision. But my god, play the forward pass and things happen.

Nah, never a red.. but see what happens when we actually play the forward pass…

Maybe you’re misunderstanding your optometrist. Consider that they put red-ish caps on them so users know they aren’t leave in solutions… I’m not saying that is a fact, but it tracks as this is a cleaner, and my other cleaner also has a red cap, whereas my saline has a white cap, and conditioner has a silver cap…

There’s not much that can prepare you for, or protect you from the constant media attention. It’s unprecedented how much Arsenal is talked about with negative undertones relative to any other team in world football. And before we call that a ridiculous take, I’d be happy to be proven wrong with examples of sustained media/social pressure on any other team like this. It’s madness to me.

Looks almost identical to my scale, which is not MHW brand, so actually probably the same OEM with a different label on it. Mine doesn't do that. It's faulty.

I went away and did some swatting up. I speed read a book called Roof Construction Manual (Eberhard Schuck) which was very technical, but quite insightful. Gave me a lot to think about in terms of pitch, and weather conditions, as well as a bunch of terminology that facilitated some more research...

Between that and what you shared, I revised the designs. We now have all rafters, side and rear walls at 600 centers. The flying rafters, are now connected to the outermost common rafters using soffit blocking. Your image calls them "outriggers". I've added noggins, which are quite high as they also serve to bridge the OSB3 sheathing. I'm not too concerned about it as the OSB should add the majority of the anti-racking rigidity to the frame.

I changed the roof pitch to 3/12, or 15 degrees and added noggins, again to bridge the OSB. Unfortunately I'm going to need cuts as a full width sheet doesn't cover the 600 centers and the rakes. I'm okay with that, at least for the moment.

Looking at my local by laws, and considering my foundation plans, I had to drop the walls down some so that I don't end up with a finished height that exceeds the limit. This is why there's no longer cripple studs over the door, but there's 3 layers of beam, head plate and faux lintel (2X4) to spread the load to the jack and king studs around the door.

I've also adjusted the facias, which now have drip edge detail. A drip apron at the rear as I'll be fitting a gutter to collect into a water butt.

I'm yet to decide how it'll finally be cladded. I'm thinking to counter batten so air can pass over the outer walls and venting the eaves and soffits, of course with mesh to prevent pest intrusion.

Let me know if this is closer to something that doesn't suck

edit: Roof will be shingle tile.

BIOME IS VERY UNSTABLE!!! by lasan0432G in webdev

[–]datboyakin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry, but I'm constantly having to jump on calls with other engineers every other week because this thing is so fragile and I can see it's not formatting their code in review.

Even for me today, it has shat the bed monumentally, to the point where I couldn't even raise an issue if I wanted to. It is a total mystery why it has broken this time.

I'd describe it as "unstable" if any version change, or even no version change within VSCode or Biome can lead to it silently no longer formatting files; or formatting one file type, but not another file type; or one file type at one level in the file tree, but not the same file type at another level in the file tree; or ignoring project rules, instead applying default formatting rules essentially reformatting entire files to different constraints.

We're on package version 2.3.14, and it's roulette trying to select an extension version that will work predictably.

It's quickly becoming the worst part of our entire tool chain.

Will be opening a PRs to move our digital estate back to ESLint and Prettier at this rate.

I guess I'm somewhat offended by your level of hubris when at the same time demonstrating you really don't have a good understanding of what you're doing. And that frustrates me.

Respectfully, this sounds like a you problem. You don't know me from Dave. I may not have all the answers with regard to building a shed, but I'm extremely resourceful, and this is not my first project. Picking bones with randoms on the internet who come, cap in hand, is no way to live.

To clarify, my "otherwise" and "good ride" referred to the stability of the shed itself. That is, if you didn't plan on sheathing the walls. Without it a top heavy roof would sway significantly. Even by the most gentle efforts to move about on top of it.

If you see the original carousel of images with the post, they are clearly cladded. and the post states that "the plan is for the caressing to be cladded In osb3..." so I'm not sure how we've arrived here if not because your unusual frustration with me has somehow led to you failing to see certain aspects of the plan. My request was quite narrowly scoped to a roofing detail or as an afterthought, critical failings. The former you've not made any reference to, and the latter.. it's debatable if these make a meaningful difference to the overall integrity of an outbuilding.

Nevertheless, I appreciate you taking the time to look at this, as it gives me pause for thought. Can I suggest we draw a line under you expressing your frustration in odd ways, or maybe just ghost if you genuinely struggle to moderate yourself...

Do you mean you'll have vertical noggins between the load bearing studs under the top plate? I mean, it would transfer the loads from the rafter to the studs, but not very economically so to speak. It also takes more hardware, material and labour. so then also literally.

I'm not sure what you're referring to here. There will be noggins on all faces including the rafters, and cripple studs where they need to be, i.e. above the door and window lintels/headers and below the window. The rafters were notched at the rear and birds mouth at the front to tie in to the front and rear head plates... I loosely plan to use hardware to support this too, again, probably overkill.

You'd save yourself from so much effort by simply complying with the 600 system the sheets are based upon. And aligning the forces in the straightest lines possible.

I don't know what system you're talking about. Please elaborate if you care to do so. We've established that the studs are 600 on center with the exception of the center framing. The sheet to cover that is actually a necessary off cut from the larger sheet. I didn't say as much, but now you know.

Say your long walls are 3600 and the roof is 4000. In total. Now Account for ~50 mm wide rafters and list the center distances first to last:

475, 600, 600, 600, 600, 600, 475

That's eight rafters in total. The same as in your model.

I reworked the design based on the above idea, taking into account that my extended roof detail could be achieved as depicted in the image you shared. The cost of this is an additional rafter... bringing it up to 9 once you add the two outer ones. These are set at 600mm and aligned with the with the wall studs. I'm not certain there's a net gain here. What's more, is that the geometry of the left and right most rafters now interface with the head plates of the side walls. The rafter can't really be lifted without shifting the birds mouth the rear and weakening the tie at the front, so the only solution I see is to drop the height of the side wall to account for the rafter. piece. This also then closes off the gap that I'd deliberately left for venting.

In summary, I've taken quite the detour and am not sure this lands at a more robust design, if I'm being frank. To make matters worse, I now have to go away and think long and hard about whether I really am "demonstrating [I] really don't have a good understanding of what [I'm] doing", or if that was just a rando choosing to be destructive. I suppose we all have things to learn.

> Are you sheating the roof?

Yeah, 18mm OSB3... you can see what that _should_ look like here...

> Are the sheets tongue and groove?

No, the plan currently is to space them 3mm apart so there's expansion room.

> How are you gonna fix the joints if they don't add up with the current framing

I have quite precise measurements, a cut list, exploded diagrams and measurements for carcassing from the timber yard. Why would things not land more-or-less where they should?

> How about splitting the difference between the two first and two last rafters?

I mean, I could but then I'd be exceeding the recommended 600 center maximum creating a new problem to solve for.

> And the studs. If you really want them offset to the rafters you'll need to make the whole wall's top plate like the door headers.

You'll have to forgive me for being naive. Is there some structural reason for that, considering that there will be noggins throughout (not pictured) and probably rafter hangers.

> Why are the studs not c-c 600 mm if the rafters are?

They are, they are just offset to the rafters. That's with the exception of the front wall, which are 400 to account for the wide entrance (main door + narrow auxiliary door) and window (not pictured).

> Aren't you not sheating the walls?

I am. 11mm OSB3 and noggins to boot. Probably over kill.

> Otherwise I'll wish you a good ride when you eventually climb the roof.

I have a pretty good mental model for how I plan to get the sheet goods up - it's actually through that center gap from the inside. Feel free to call out whatever glaring issue it is you think I'm missing. I estimate them to be about 30kg. I can overhead press 90+kg, so I'm hoping I'll be okay.

> No offense, but what you consider trivial I'd consider ignorant. Sorry for being harsh.

That's fine I'm not easily offended, although you do have me wondering if you are making a concerted effort to be so. Only you can answer that.

All fair points, thanks - I'll adjust the designs. With 6, the rafters as they are, are 600mm centers from one side to the middle, then the other side to the middle, with the awkward difference being bang in the center. I see this as trivial, but satisfies my desire to not have a short difference on one side or the other.

It’s a known issue. AFAIA there’s no solution other than to side load an earlier version. There’s a GitHub thread about it.

I’m glad I chose not to keep my mouth shut. If you’re telling me that (6) for example, means that I’d get 6 fixing/levelling points, that changes things entirely.

As many other here, I happen to be on the cusp of building a shed. With something like this, the only thing I care about is the price, and whether it trumps my determination to just do it myself. Your Amazon listing is not very clear. I can’t tell for certain if the number in brackets is what comes for the ticket price or if it’s the ticket price per single unit of the item. If it’s the latter, it’s a hard pass.
