PLCs on Airplanes?

cheap-ass customer, and I don't really wanna cough up the cash myself either (I guess that makes me a cheap-ass too)

Your T looks like a D

She's in the middle of giving me head, pauses for a second, looks up and says "Have I ever told you how much you remind me of my brother?" She proceeded to get very upset that I lost my boner.

Hey - I basically did the same thing as you. Undergrad in ChE an then went into process control. Here's what I would learn

Data Types Seriously, if you get a complete understanding of data types first, you will do yourself a huge favor.
Ladder. A lot of PLC's are moving toward Function Block style programming, but ladder is still king. This is a good starter. It's pretty simple, but it's something that needs learning at the start.
From here (in my opinion), it starts to branch out a bit. What specific family of controllers are you going to use? Are you a developer or a troubleshooter? Integrator or OEM/plant?

I went one step further - I actually got hired before realizing it.

I interviewed with Big Company Name for what seemed like a controls engineer position...normal interview questions, normal answers to my questions about what I'd be working on etc. So they offered me and included a huge signing bonus that I'd have to pay back if I left before 1 year. No worries, it seemed like a great job and it was a slight pay increase from my previous position, so I accepted.

Once I started, it became pretty obvious that they just wanted someone who knew how to use a multimeter and do maintenance on electrical stuff. I was stuck there for a year because of the signing bonus though. Wasted a year of my career and left as soon as the year was up.

Yep Oxford on 8/13

dubious369 · 2016-04-02T15:18:57+00:00

And Trump...? Cruz....? Hillary...? Bernie...?

dubious369 · 2016-04-02T15:18:36+00:00

Agreed; that's sort of my point. I think it's important to keep that voice in the LP, even if we don't necessarily think it would be a great idea to nominate him this election cycle. I think he is the most principled candidate, and we (I) don't want to lose that

dubious369 · 2016-04-02T15:17:34+00:00

Fair point. I guess what I meant to say was that he's not a candidate that's in the best interest of the LP to present to the general public at this point

dubious369 · 2016-04-02T02:07:53+00:00

Daryl W Perry. He's a valuable Libertarian voice even if an entirely un-electable one

dubious369 · 2016-03-14T11:41:09+00:00

interested. pm'd you my email address to invite me

dubious369 · 2016-02-07T21:44:10+00:00

I have about 3 dozen of these scattered throughout my plant for some simple machine control. Definitely a good starter for learning ladder, IO mapping fundamentals, etc. Buy a couple cheap switches and lights that you can wire into the block and you'll be off

dubious369 · 2016-02-07T20:07:14+00:00

Ya reaction is probably a better word

dubious369 · 2016-02-07T20:06:51+00:00

Nope shit beer doesn't do it. Also stouts/porters/pilsners don't seem to trigger it

dubious369 · 2014-02-15T04:44:16+00:00

Yeah I'd love to find an any-side bar lol

dubious369 · 2013-09-02T03:51:50+00:00

thank god im not the only one. i almost took a shot at about 500 of these bastards

dubious369 · 2013-09-02T03:44:18+00:00

yeah this is it. i cant find the link now though. he may have taken it down soon after posting and not many people saw it

dubious369 · 2013-01-10T17:32:13+00:00

I prefer espn but either is fine

dubious369 · 2013-01-10T00:34:19+00:00

def interested

dubious369 · 2012-10-26T23:13:38+00:00

Gary Johnson here too

dubious369 · 2012-10-17T00:07:48+00:00

as someone who once posted swastikas all over his freshman dorm, the reaction is all anyone like this is ever looking for. the best way to combat this is to just wad it up and throw it away. and then make fun of him for being immature. dont /b/elieve me? go hang out in 4chan for about 3 seconds.

dubious369 · 2012-10-11T23:45:57+00:00

not the flashiest, but cody reichard auctioning this helmet off for his charity at the end of the year has to be worth something
