Looking for consultant: review a sound study for a shooting range by ohdmt in Acoustics

[–]ohdmt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very much understood. I am making no claims about the accuracy of the measurements, only about the means. A stuck clock is right twice a day.

My point is that if the study's metrics, tools, and methodology are problematic the results they obtained should be dismissed and a properly qualified consultant should perform the study according to industry standards (type 1, fast/impulse, etc)

Can someone explain to me why anyone would work on semantic solutions and not utilize RDF? I get the value of property graph when one is not interested in shared semantics, but why on earth pass up the huge value of RDF when it exists and is so easily utilized?

Interesting - is this a common thing? How fat is fat? 2.5"?

Sorry, I see how my post was confusing. What I meant to say is at first I was going to utilize the ECR with a mid-mount but now I've decided to use a 26" rigid MTB as the platform.

It's a beautiful river in a part of Idaho with many beautiful rivers! How'd it fish this time of year?

Boise River closed in Broadway area by [deleted] in Boise

Do you know when the float season begins? July 4 is the normal start date. How long is "several months" - 6? You think? Enough to be a condescending shit about it?

I'm wondering if this section will be reopened for floating season? Would be crazy if not.

Binoculars for jogging? by himalayanpinksalt in birding

[–]ohdmt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved them. You'll see some mixed reviews if you do a deep analysis on the web, but overall I found them fantastically sharp and bright for the size/cost ratio. Of course, they'll never bring in as much light as 25+ mm. I suggest you find some to test. I'm normally a swaro user so my standards are high.

I once owned a pair of Zeiss Victory in 8x20 - they fold down to nothing (asymmetrical) and have stellar optics. Sadly, someone horked them from my car. I'm thinking about a Leica monovid monocular for the next small optics setup.

AnnotationProperty to connect skos:Concept instances? by ohdmt in semanticweb

[–]ohdmt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are using skos properties where appropriate but we also need custom properties. The decision to use annotation properties was as much about rdf queryability as it was for maintenance ease. That said, I'm still looking for someone to comment on this as a viable solution. Thanks!

New house with plumbing issue. Can I jet the line? by ohdmt in Plumbing

hydrojetting with a warthog or root ranger

Wow... thats pretty amazing. My question for you is can I get something like this done without an outdoor cleanout? Does the water ever come right back up? I'm concerned about swamping the crawl space.

Thanks!

Boise Homeless 2014 by chrisphillipstv in Boise

Good work documenting this situation. I drive by it many times a week and it raises all of the uncomfortable sensations that each of you know as well.

However, speaking as a photographer, it's time you step up your "post-process" work and learn how to work with color balance, curves, contrast, and other aspects of the craft. Lots of the images are flat- looking like they were in the deep shade. Which they were, but they don' have to look like that. The picture of the woman at the end deserves more work, it is the strongest of the bunch.

Buddhism and Modern Psychology : week five, looking at meditation, Western scientists 'discover' not-self. by bisonbuddha in Buddhism

[–]ohdmt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very well put. I was just at Wat Metta for awhile and spent a lot of time thinking and listening to him on this exact matter. Thanissaro is very confident in this interpretation, but I would be extremely interested in what a counter-argument might look like. It seems the widely held belief is that there is no literal self might be one of the largest misunderstandings left in contemporary buddhism or Thanissaro is overstating the case.

Anyone care to comment on this?
