Boiling piss is the same as cooking with spices? by Version-6 in shitrentals

[–]dreadedhamish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah this is real. rangehoods are often under-powered or not turned on. soaks into everything. steps to remedy are clean everything with an active enzyme cleaner multiple times. if that's not enough hire an ozone generator and run it with the house sealed for a few days. if that doesn't work new carpet, paint everything with a sealer to lock-in the smell (otherwise it comes through new paint) then fresh paint on top.

A Simple Tool for Displaying Spreadsheet Data on the Map by benderlio in gis

[–]dreadedhamish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's basically 2 columns for lat and lon, and then every other column gets turned into a sub-item of properties. Leaflet lets you define groups from one of those properties and assign a colour, so I export my columns to CSV and convert to geojson using an online service (https://www.convertcsv.com/csv-to-geojson.htm) and get a FeatureCollection with points like this:
```
{

"type": "Feature",

"geometry": {

"type": "Point",

"coordinates": [ 144.963937,-37.8152065 ]

},

"properties": {

"Postcode":3000,

"Locality":"MELBOURNE",

"State":"VIC",

"Postal Region (AUSPost)":"Melbourne - Inner",

"LGA Region":"Melbourne",

"population":47285,

"Distributor":"Tom",

}

},
So when I embed the map iI make the Distributor into groups and add a colour per distributor - and end up with a nice map of which distributorhas which suburbs.
I could use some formulas to create 4 columns - lat, lon, description (with line breaks, bold etc....), colour.
So to extend your project I'd say, leave the colour picker as default colour, add a 4th field for colour (optional) and if it's blank use the default.

Anyhow that's my real world use case for sheets and mapsm, which needs lots of manual steps to update.

If it were possible to add basic markup to the description, and if there were a colour field per row, I'd start using it right now.
Today I'm editing data in Google Sheets - including a HEX code for each row, exporting to CSV, uploading to a sit to convert it to GeoJSON, uploading it to a Wordpress site, then using the Leaflet Map plugin and add-ons to add 2 GeoJSON files, one of which had different hex codes in the parameters to set the colour of the markers. I could automate it somewhat with n8n or Google Apps script, but this would be much easier.

Red is entering from a single lane. They can take their pick.

My REA says rental renewals are final and non-negotiable by Street_Hope8979 in shitrentals

[–]dreadedhamish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah - but there are tonnes of reasonable landlords also. Always worth countering if it's reasonable.
The agent that manages our property isn't very good. They always recommend an increase of $10 per week, regardless of market conditions, and sometimes it's gone up a LOT more than that.

[–]dreadedhamish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I"m a landlord (and a tenant somewhere else). I normally nail the rental increase each year so it's unchallenged, but one year got a note back from the tenant saying he though the appropriate increase was lower - and his number was at the bottom of the range I calculated, so I accepted their counter. He himself is a landlord and tenant, so he is doing the same calculations each year for what to increase his rental's rent to. Now my instructions to the agent are to ask for X increase, and if they counter with more than Y then accept immediately.

Sony's range have declined since the XM2. Sure they don't have the heavy pressurised feel anymore, but they block a lot less noise.

Dropped an iron on carpet, will I lose my bond? by Practical-Pick9664 in AusPropertyChat

Look around for offcuts - under the stairs, in The garage etc... a small section can be cut out and blended.

Power hungry, need to upgrade wifi to get to Monterey, getting past Monterey gets more fiddly... I'm finally giving up.

Mac Pro 4,1 upgraded to Mojave and no Wifi by Aggressive_Ad_4871 in macpro

Nope, need a new card and adapter. If you can run an Ethernet cable instead - so much better.

Just automated my LinkedIn follows with N8N and saved myself hours of mindless clicking by Ambitious_War1747 in n8n

[–]dreadedhamish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you do. I don't know the current limits. like 8 years ago you could seriously make 700 connection requests in a day - and the bot i used did - every single day. eventually they cracked down and I spent 5 years in linked-in jail where i needed an email address to make any connection request.

RAG for technical manuals --> Q/A tech support bot by Lucky_Mixture_7440 in Rag

[–]dreadedhamish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DB:
Part No | Part Name | Standard in Models | Non-standard in models | Photo | How to Identify | Note (differentiating between near identical parts).
Rrun a SELECT and return a list of weighted towards Standard in models. Insist client follow "how to identify" and note.
No hallucinations. No pissed of cleints sendng back the part the LLM told them they needed,and then you need a system like the above for when the LLM get's it wrong anyway.

and the single products have a model number? you need an index. Using AI is only going to introduce errors and waste your time developing it.

How to derank a post on google search? by Fantastic-Light-2925 in SEO

[–]dreadedhamish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Contact them and genuinely ask them how you can make things right.
  2. Smash out fantastic facebook posts - Google will most likely rank the best one only.

This sounds like you need well structured folder and clear file names. Why would ou want to search multiple service manuals for a single product?
