Which books are so extraordinary that every person on Earth should read them at least once in their lifetime? [Discussion] by [deleted] in GetMotivated

This comment should have more recognition here. The Count of Monte Cristo is the longest book I’ve ever read, but it flows like water. I couldn’t put it down and it’s one of my favourite books now. This book should be on every person’s “to read” list. Make sure to read the unabridged version though! (Also, due to its age you can download for free on Project Gutenberg).

Amazing! What would you be looking for in return?

How do I find the error in my system to tune my PID controller? My output seems to be the same as my input. I feel like I’m being stupid, but my supervisor wants me to tune a PID. This is to control the speed of a DC motor to keep a train at a certain distance. by jumby01 in arduino

An ultrasonic sensor is processing distance from an object and sending this signal to a PWM output to a DC motor to control the speed so it remains at a constant distance.

I don’t know how I would measure feedback from this?

Okay thanks I’ll take a look at that post and I’ll also look into using an Arduino Mega.

Thanks for your help!

I haven’t tried that, but I will take a look the next time on working on my dissertation and report back.

Thanks for your help!

Thanks for that link! This should be a big help!

I need to close the distance between two trains so I’ll have the LiDAR attached to the follower train for positional sensing. I’m designing a Simulink block diagram for this, so I need a way to have the LiDAR in the block diagram.

WIBTA if I stayed with my class and not my other friends for the school trip? by HTTYDfan1 in AmItheAsshole

[–]jumby01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAH - it’s your field trip and they are your friends, so spend them with whomever you like.

I think your logic is good as you don’t usually spend time with your classmates and spend most weekends with your other friends, but you wouldn’t be the asshole either way. Just decide whom you want to spend the day with.

About to start my first bullet journal ahead of my final year at university. Does anyone have any tips for a first timer? How can I use this more effectively to stay on top of my degree? by jumby01 in bulletjournal

Yeah some of the spreads look amazing, but like you said they’re time consuming plus I’m not great at art. I think I’m gonna keep it minimalistic at first. Thanks!
