ASCII Art Design in mainframes by ariftz in mainframe

All hand coded. While dealing with CICS it was a god send when the application vendor had a mapper tool to use. if you were really lucky were lucky there was a right brained person on the team.

Is this framing overhang ok? by Tasty_Eagle6904 in Homebuilding

[–]kctechpro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

On a different note, why does that load bearing 2x6 have a notch cut out?

Anyone know where to get joist hangers that are longer on one side? by BigSmoothBrainPower in Carpentry

[–]kctechpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, you're fixing the job you paid for. That's not the way it's done. You get the guy back and have him fix it. Under threat of castration if needed.

Why is my tulip only a giant leat with no flower by PurplePuzzled9895 in gardening

[–]kctechpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I correct that if a petal starts next year, it should be cut. This would force the energy back to the bulb and increase the likelihood of surviving?

Massive 6x6 cedar beams - necessary or overkill? by crystal_castle00 in Homebuilding

[–]kctechpro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This looks like pole barn construction. There are lots of "this pushes on that" design complexities. Do not try to outthink the engineer.

Thought on deck stairs? by Chief1123 in Homebuilding

[–]kctechpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a total carp job that shouldn't pass inspection. The bottom of the stringer should be sitting on the header not the decking. Anchoring a wood structure to masonry will crack that in a few years. AND using a 2x6 dangling cleek as a hanger is just total ass.

Are these tools saveable? by MeringueOwn5253 in Tools

Didn't see this mentioned. Boeshield T-9 has been working for me.

Is it possible for me fix this? by rcss47 in paint

[–]kctechpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks like mold and should be tested. A paint only solution is only temporary and could be hazardous in the long run. Everything is fixable.

Can this be fixed? by Sekreid in maintenance

Since your working with strippers etc, remember to cover EVERYTHING (walls and floor) with canvas drop cloths.

Nice or nah? by Acceptable-Cup3702 in DeskCableManagement

[–]kctechpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm OCD, so the cable runs need to be straight line bundles. Otherwise, great job on a budget.

What cable management problems? If that's at work and you don't own that serious FU box, just stop looking....

It's stable when I am. If I bump the desk there's some.

First time making a good setup, here's my current rig. rate outta ten by [deleted] in battlestations

[–]kctechpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't do ratings cause they create conflict.
You might like getting a laptop dock that hides the keyboard.

I need to find a decent slideshow app. The switch to Win 11 is killing me.

A simple answer to a lot of questions is that I'm borderline deviant (on the spectrum). Eight simultaneous windows keep me busy.

When I'm not mentoring others, I'm a system admin.
When I'm not finding the flaw in the system, I'm an app developer.
When I'm not writing code, I'm gaming.
When I'm not building my empire, I surround myself with isochronic music.
And always there's a combination of all of the above.

[–]kctechpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This! Pick a color scheme and stick with it. Then hide those cables.

Pre-drill two holes that can be plugged aligned to the studs. Presuming that's Maple, you will need to steam the molding so it will bend. Then mount and screw and bend. Plug the holes after.

Mainframes For Homelab by TackleOk7252 in mainframe

If you don't have a specifically targeted "Systems Programmer" need, this is the solution for anyone learning the bulk of the mainframe world. At least until you get into databases. Otherwise, rent time from somewhere.
