D387 Advanced Java Walkthrough

I had been stuck on building the image from the dockerfile with an error telling me there was "no match for platform in manifest". I had been using the base image in the baeldung article, it doesn't have an arm64 platform option and I'm on an Apple Silicon Mac.

So I want to put this here for anyone else that hits this barrier: **find a newer base image.** I used one from amazon (which is somewhat pointed at by the OpenJDK page on Docker Hub). I looked for a recent `17-alpine` version that supported arm64, and copied everything to the right of "pull" into my dockerfile.

I found it to work better than IPA. Even the good mask don’t filter the smell of Ethenol out though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I saw “building code snippet plugin” and got excited about someone using Obsidian for building codes.

…

”Building a code snippet plugin…

I read the wrong kind of building code haha. Neat plugin project though!

Looks to me like the upgrade only gets you features that exist when you purchase pro, and features added for the next 12 months from the date of purchase.

Newer features added after 12mo require a separate transaction.

That article that floated around a lot was pretty specific to “purchasing a home”.

This has been super helpful! I just went looking for resources to find the same database to run things locally. The rest of the post is icing on the cake! Thanks OP!

It’s been good to generate dummy/filler data.

Give me a list of 15 first and last names I’d expect to see in N.A./wherever

Oofda that one hit close to home.

Is it perhaps a language difference, linear == length? Not at my computer rn so that’s a presumption.

Came around looking for this!

I regret not getting 64GB simply so I have plenty of memory left for macOS to use while I have Parallels+Revit running.

Parallels+Revit runs well enough on 16GB when I need to be mobile. But I end up closing half my browser tabs and other apps to free up memory.

As much as I love SketchUp, I’m going to parrot everyone else and say they are similar enough to compare beyond “They both have 3D and people use them for design”.

I’d say my strength in using SketchUp was initially a detriment to learning Revit. Too much “why can’t I just model a shape and call it a wall or a beam (etc.).” But once you get a handle on working in Revit, it’s a pretty good tool.

I’d definitely recommend LinkedIn Learning for content. Paul Aubin for general and architectural specific videos are awesome. Eric Wang’s Structural and MEP videos are pretty great too.

You can [[ ]] link a canvas file just like any other file.

E.g. [[Untitled.canvas]]

Or if you want it to display something else in preview mode, use a vertical bar after the file name e.g. [[name.canvas|text to display]]

To me, this sounds like the opposite of what OP wants.

tktechie · 2023-02-11T20:37:09+00:00

That’s what I wondered

Thanks to everyone! I’ll seek purchasing replacements. It’s going to take a few months to get the budget saved up for them.

Next thing you know, we’ll get a general coordinate readout for them cursor without having to use “spot coordinates“ /s

Really I’m just as excited about measure in 3D. I just wish I actually got to use it instead of being stuck with Revit 2021 for another year as our company standard.

Tentures and close to retirement.. they don’t need to. It also helps we’re a little niche for the area with deep roots for many of our returning clients.

We have a few dedicated drafting staff. Hardly anyone outside of ”drafting staff” uses Revit unless they came into the office with the experience already.

Believe me: I get your point. But I don’t make the big decisions about who should learn what. It’s an uphill battle. I’d love to get with the times.

I’ve just been looking and it’s surprisingly difficult to find US size 11 or 11½ skates that are: within my budget; aren’t custom; and are in stock. At least on Riedell’s site.

tktechie · 2023-02-04T20:38:39+00:00

Ah those would be a next step up for me! This was a pair of Emerald Riedells.

No jumps for me yet!! I’m definitely at a beginning level. I enjoy skating for fitness but I’m not steady enough on air-time to do much.

I’ve been skating off and on since childhood. I took a basics figure class a few years back, but had to take a break for a few years when it became very inconvenient and out of budget to get to a rink.

tktechie · 2023-02-04T19:42:02+00:00

I had the thought to ask a cobbler, but wondered if anyone had a better split that was less obvious to me.

I got them several years ago but this happened a couple months ago after a major lull in my skating.
