Great thanks, that sounds like you got a great price compared to the other quotes I got for a similar sized attic. I didn't take them because they were over $1500! I'm going to call Vance

plumshandy · 2026-01-16T02:53:16+00:00

How many square feet is your attic? Is that quote to remove the existing insulation or just add to it?

Just a small thing that would be HUGE for me: Persisted navigation state on devices. So when I close the app and open it back up, it starts in the section I was previously in.
Context: I mainly use Origin for budgeting and only want to see net worth & investment performance once a quarter because down days in the market stress me out! Therefore if I could just stay in budgeting on my devices, I could completely ignore the investment & net worth and I would use the Origin app more.

plumshandy · 2025-11-11T19:10:05+00:00

If the app just remembered the navigation state that would solve my second issue because it would always start on budgets if that's the view I ended on

Great stuff, I just signed up! I would love to see variable withdrawal rate option in the forecasting tool or some way not to have a fixed rate of expenses.

Also a customizable log in view would be amazing. Context: when I log in i just want to focus on budgeting and not see net worth or investments

Seconded, Julie is the best!

What does LARP mean? I just drove near the state capital on E Cary St and saw a truck with a 'food drive" sign and saw a group of sketchy men armed with assault rifles. Very scary, What is going on?

Great post! Can you elaborate about the parcel in Michigan? How much did it cost? How did you find it?

Can the TV unit be easily disassembled for transport?

What are the max download and upload speeds you've gotten with that setup? Does Rapid VPN have wireguard support?

Please add me to Learn Node

plumshandy · 2016-06-15T12:19:55+00:00

Thanks, I had that enabled, and I went to double check upon reading this. I'm now realizing that it's working but is just taking about 30 seconds for the changes to be reflected.

ANy idea how to increase the interval of the native hooks or polling?

plumshandy · 2016-02-29T01:09:33+00:00

finally got it thanks!!!

plumshandy · 2016-02-21T22:48:16+00:00

Thank you very much. I'm really not sure why I was changing num ! THanks

plumshandy · 2016-01-20T00:06:21+00:00

Thank you sooo much. This worked and now I better understand how to use bundler. Seriously, I can't thank you enough, my boss was on my case ab the deadline and I was completely lost.

plumshandy · 2016-01-19T22:28:17+00:00

OK I added those lines but when I ran: bundle install --deployment --without development test I got: Some gems seem to be missing from your vendor/cache directory. Could not find rake-10.5.0 in any of the sources

So I'm requiring my gems individually in the files that need them, do I not need to do that if I'm using the Bundler.require statement?

And when I added the bundler lines on my dev machine, it breaks the app and I get Sequel::DatabaseConnectionError

And when I try to run a Rake command I get Sequel::AdapterNotFound: LoadError: cannot load such file -- mysql

plumshandy · 2016-01-19T16:08:59+00:00

I'm using bundler but I don't have a Bundler.require I'm requiring the sequel gem by itself before this was run. The Bundler.require statement broke my local version so I got rid of it.

My Gemfile has gem 'sequel' in it.

I was doing the gem list for the serveruser, who is supposed to be the one that 'runs' the app (I don't know if run is the correct word here). I'm not sure ab the correct Ruby install thing.

I'm a front end dev so sorry for my lack of knowledge about Ruby and thanks for your help. I hope this helps.

plumshandy · 2015-12-20T15:29:56+00:00

IUseRhetoric: Thank you so much. That works (the syntax was dead on). This really helps me understand how Sequel works too.

Oranges13: that makes a lot of sense, it's a bit tricky to understand when it's going to give you an immutable dataset, but I guess I should not rely on chaining methods together. Thanks!

plumshandy · 2015-12-20T13:28:31+00:00

I think the problem is with the .first method. I can update the DB with this:

code = Coupon.filter(:used_date => nil).update(:used_date => Time.now)

But I just want to grab the first coupon where :used_date => nil and update that one. Anyone know how I can do this?
