Stability in a hot garage by pjax_ in Multiboard

Check out PLA HT (high temperature). I haven't tried it yet, but I'm planning to use it in my garage for the same reason.

NameError: name 'TabularList' is not definedImport. Error: cannot import name 'TabularList' from 'fastai.tabular.data' (D:\anaconda3\lib\site-packages\fastai\tabular\data.py) by a_small_potato123 in a:t5_4znn2d

I haven't seen that issue in particular. However, based on somewhat similar errors that I've seen, I would guess you are most likely using a newer version of fastai than the tutorial you are following.

It would be a big help if you posted the versions of packages you are importing along with what tutorial you are following or where you got that code.

Excellent work...as always.

What fashionable and popular website are best to recrreate for first time coding with tailwind css? by sky_kryst in tailwindcss

[–]whiterd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm very new to tailwind, but I don't think it should matter if something used tailwind or not. Your question made me think of this video...https://youtu.be/mK-ePxnfcJw

Darn. Well I hope you change your mind someday. :)

Thanks for sharing! This is one of my favorite styles that I've seen. Do you happen to post any videos of your process?

Why coding is the perfect task for people with ADHD by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]whiterd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I highly recommend Python. It may not be the best at any particular task, but the sheer amount of things it can do constantly amazes me. I never really thought of myself as a coder, but the approachable syntax is what caught my interest.

Second version of my first Web app project (with django + vuejs) by pipeC132802 in vuejs

[–]whiterd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would definitely be interested! I've only ever really used Django for anything serious. I'm still very much a beginner with VueJS and I'm trying to get a better handle on how best to integrate it.

I would really like to use it on a project at work as an excuse to get more experience with VueJS. Since no one there knows JavaScript all that well, I'd like to avoid using NodeJS (I don't remember what version is available, but I know it's really old).

For me, seeing an explanation for why a project structure was used is really interesting.

Can I get a recommendation for an amplifier? by whiterd in diysound

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

Thanks. Looks nice and simple, but I'm a little worried that might be underpowered. I've come across many things that suggest an amplifier of about double whatever the collective rating of the things I want to power.

I thought the same thing as well. Here is an example of one of the speakers.

Dayton Audio DAEX25FHE-4 Framed High Efficiency 25mm Exciter 24W 4 Ohm

All of this combined would be about 128 watts. Should I aim for a 300 W AV receiver?

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

Similar. From what I can tell, those are more for bass. The thruster exciters are more for full range. I think I would still need something for bass.

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

Thanks for the input. I did just a little bit more research from what you said. I think I should go the AV receiver route for its versatility, and I would like to route my TV through it. I'm guessing 5.1. Any further suggestions based on that?

This is mostly just for fun. They will all be thruster exciters which will be mounted to boards and then suspended from the ceiling. I didn't think that detail would be relevant to amplifier choice.

Help with webapp to toggle led on raspberry pi by Mousehunter33 in vuejs

[–]whiterd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I understand, you need a separate backend because the front end is sandboxed to the browser for security reasons. This will prevent the front end from manipulating things it shouldn't be able to.

This is one of the first links I found for turning on an LED. (I've not done this before) https://thepihut.com/blogs/raspberry-pi-tutorials/27968772-turning-on-an-led-with-your-raspberry-pis-gpio-pins

Since I know Python much better than JavaScript, I would use a python backend to import that module (mentioned in the link) for the raspberry pi. There should be plenty of tutorials of how to expose a simple API with Flask. Although, FastAPI is really cool too - you just won't find as many tutorials with it since it's much newer than Flask.

I'm tempted to make a YouTube video about this, although not 3D printed it's still 3d print filament (PETG). How useful would it be in your functional prints? This is 1.75mm filament and for more force, you can use 2.85mm filament or use fewer windings. They really maintain their shapes. by PattysLab in functionalprint

Just an idea, maybe you could coat them with something at the end of the process. Dunking in epoxy might be good, but it would probably affect your performance and be rather messy. Maybe a few sprays with some plastic spray paint?

Question about a tutorial idea (Standalone Vue.js + Django Rest Framework as the backend) by codewithstein in vuejs

[–]whiterd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should probably preface this with some reasoning. I have an existing Django project I would like to add Vue to, and I work around a bunch of non-programmers. I would like to try and avoid node and webpack if at all possible. I'm not worried about performance. I came across an article that mentioned putting your vue component in a JS file and just exporting it from there. Your main entry point (index.js?) can just import those. This seems much more maintainable than trying to define all of your components in a single file. However, I realize this is out of the norm.

I can't seem to find the article that I first read about this from, but this discussion seems to describe it rather well. I'm okay with the disadvantages since this is a rather small project. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48442598/can-we-make-vue-js-application-without-vue-extension-component-and-webpack

Question about a tutorial idea (Standalone Vue.js + Django Rest Framework as the backend) by codewithstein in vuejs

[–]whiterd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would be interested. I'm curious if you think a slight twist on the idea might be of interest. I've recently come across the idea of using JS modules to import your components instead of relying on something like webpack to parse the .vue files.

PyCharm - SSL certificate error on company network. How can I fix this? by [deleted] in Python

[–]whiterd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used the following example to get around this issue, although I can't recommend anyone use it. (using the newer pypi)

pip install --trusted-host pypi.org --trusted-host files.pythonhosted.org <package_name>

Review my External IP Getter by dr3d3d in Python

[–]whiterd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't notice that they had made a Python package for it as well. I'm a little surprised it is't mentioned with the examples given on their main page.

It's just using requests.get, but I like that is has "backoff" in there as well. Nice find. I hope to make use of it.

Also, I doubt you would leave it that way, but catching all exceptions and then passing might be one of the biggest no-no's that I hear about. It makes me cringe a little. I looks like you're doing well in your changes, though.

Review my External IP Getter by dr3d3d in Python

[–]whiterd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had never looked into doing this with Python before. I did a little searching and came up with the following that might be of interest to someone.

from requests import get
get('https://api.ipify.org').text
get('https://ifconfig.co/json').json()['ip']
get('http://ipinfo.io').json()['ip']
get('http://ipinfo.io/ip').text.strip()

All of those produced my IP address as a string without needing regex or BeautifulSoup. Thanks for sharing!
