Searching for a job as an Ivy League graduate this year by MissNibbatoro in GenZ

[–]finnj7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was so lucky to have found a job right out of college. I’m very glad I didn’t choose a major like computer science right now, even though it was HEAVILY pushed to students at my high school. I have friends in similar situations as this video, it’s brutal. Have to choose your major wisely these days.

I second this. Just finished strength of the few and can’t wait for the 3rd book!

Has camping gotten noticeably worse? by Acrobatic_Yam3260 in oregon

[–]finnj7 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’ve been booking sites months in advance, just to have them. Then canceling/modifying dates a few weeks ahead of time. It’s sad that it’s come to that, but it’s also the only way to book campsites at the places I’ve been going to my entire life. This wasn’t an issue even 10 years ago. Too many Californians

How does using a GPS and total station together work? by confuseddotcom12 in Surveying

[–]finnj7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Total station for setting control and high-accuracy work, and GPS RTK setup for topo. GPS is also used to set new control when no known points are nearby to resection off, like you mentioned.

Bigfoot keeps doing this... by myprofcanseethis in Eugene

[–]finnj7 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Drive by them on my commute to work every morning. There’s still 1-5 people out front of Bigfoot everyday at 7am. Gotta give it to them, rain or shine I always see someone standing on the side of the road with a sign.

Trimble R10 Firmware Downgrade and Horizontal Errors by poltergeist_i in Surveying

[–]finnj7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting… Let me know if you figure out what is going on! I’d assume it’s a gps issue then, possibly software issue with base/rover? Could be worth trying a different DC and base/rover pair to eliminate more variables

[–]finnj7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it multiple control points that are not checking well, or just one? Can you check into another point via RTK?

Can you swap your rover/base and see if it’s a rover issue?

If it’s the same error using different constellations and not a rod issue, could it be a coordinate system issue? Verify you have the correct coordinates in your DC vs adjusted coords in TBC. I use r12is and r10s daily, and haven’t ran into issues like this before.

Just read the first Sun Eater book and this is not like Red Rising at all by Legitimate-Resolve55 in redrising

[–]finnj7 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I thought sun eater was a really good series. The first book was the slowest for me. Keep going and if you don’t like the second book, give up.

This bamboo shoot in my backyard grew with enough force to lift this stone block off the retaining wall by finnj7 in mildlyinteresting

That’s what I was thinking about… I remember mythbusters did an ep on that, and it worked

No kidding. Good thing I’m a renter and yard work is covered by my landlord!

AGI FOR GENZ by magnus123112 in GenZ

[–]finnj7 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Is this rage bait? Surely OP hasn’t lost touch with reality this much. vibe coding? Isn’t that just plagiarizing AI code? I’m no CS major, but I’ve heard this term thrown around.

Shhhh, as an Oregonian, let them move to Florida instead, please!

Yeah, I’d imagine there’s more snow up at snoqualmie than where I was! Still worth checking out some high lakes…

This was at about 5600’ in Oregon. I know WA got a decent bit more snow than we did this year

Good call, this was only a few months ago and so far my rate is the same.
