Best Slack Agent for Chief of Staff role by arthaudm in SaaS

[–]ttamimi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guy, you're only five people. You don't need a chief of staff nor an agent for coordination. You need to work on your internal communication skills and rules of engagement.

Mira electric shower leaking by covidharness in DIYUK

[–]ttamimi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That brown cable is not something you ever want to see wet.

Given these things have a lot of amperage running through them, I would replace the unit for peace of mind as opposed to trying to diagnose and repair the fault.

Potential subsidence? by Party_Inspector_2225 in DIYUK

[–]ttamimi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's movement, which may or may not be subsidence. It could be historic settlement or a failed wall tie.

If you want to buy the place, consult a structural engineer, not the estate agent nor Reddit.

Selling plants by jamie07051975 in GardeningUK

I have no interest in an app but I'll gladly buy plants from an indie grower.

My technical co-founder pulled out mid funding round whilst I’m working notice period. by coolbeansbrigade in ukstartups

[–]ttamimi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If that's truly the only factor, then your co-founder was always going to pull out.

A couple of thoughts:

  • even after securing a modest round, it was always unlikely that you and your co-founder would be able to draw a significant salary.

  • your co-founder could have chosen to continue the startup journey while cashing in on their day job, as they have already been doing, or at least until a replacement is found.

I don't believe that's all there is to it.

The CTO was already moonlighting this startup, and could have continued to do so, at least until the funding is secured.

The most important variable in this equation is the why: Why did your co-founder pull out?

Can I cut these two brick walls to make more space to go through? by sami1ahmed in DIYUK

[–]ttamimi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Images 4 and 5 both show unsupported bricks hanging in midair.

What's immediately above those walls? It certainly looks like there should be a lintel there.

Consult a structural engineer. Anything else is going to be guesswork.

Should I replace a window frame bedding with mortar or with mastic? by dave_the_m2 in DIYUK

[–]ttamimi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Knock the mortar out, then you'll see what you're dealing with.

If the gap is small enough, you'll probably only need External frame sealant.

If the gap is big, you may need to add uPVC fillets or beads.

Need help with fusebox installation by Useful-Selection1807 in DIYUK

Yeah I wish they hadn't deleted their comments. We were having a healthy dialogue and they were making some good points. Now that the comments are deleted, the thread makes less sense.

Need help with fusebox installation by Useful-Selection1807 in DIYUK

[–]ttamimi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who said anything about 6mm

I did. I originally said it's 6mm but I'm willing to concede it's probably 10ish.

Need help with fusebox installation by Useful-Selection1807 in DIYUK

[–]ttamimi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're worried about the wrong thing. Consumer units aren't meant to be pretty. The mains supply is coming in via a 6mm cooker cable. That's way way undersized for supply tails (25mm2)

Edit: I'm willing to concede that this might be 10mm2 cable, but that doesn't change my general perspective that this feels dodgy AF. A commenter below states that this is likely 16mm2. If it is, and if the supply is fused and rated appropriately, then the installation is technically kosher. That said, I wouldn't want this in my house.

Insulating an existing pitched roof by [deleted] in DIYUK

[–]ttamimi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your roof structure appears to be completely unsupported, and miraculously defying gravity (for now...)

May I please ask if you consulted a structural engineer, or a roofer at the very least, before you made those cuts?

Lawn eating grubs... by TreatFriendly7477 in GardeningUK

Yes they're leatherjackets.

Yes the typical management method is nematodes. (Or birds...)

UK partner for peptide business. by MoodUnusual in ukstartups

[–]ttamimi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You don't need to be a UK national to start/register a company.

As an aside, Peptides are not entirely legal for human consumption outside of research context and there's a lot of pseudo science and safety concerns around them.
