made a pretty fast markov chain library in cpp, then more recently got around to making a python+beautifulsoup wrapper to fetch and insert sa threads

here's the first few lines i got for this thread:

quote:

and then do it for years and that's what is the best: adlib gold 1000

i mean obviously reading stuff's worthwhile (just got my smart dog book) but i dont thnbink ive ever used a 1kohm as the msp launchpad at $22 but transistors seem like they'll turn out it'll let me get back to my hometown's polytech to learn to ejaculate without touch your penis (either directly or indirectly)

what u REALLY need is this mosfet only useful classes. i have

I have zero motivation as a diode with a uC and it was exactly like a week on anything at all. u may not turn your head 45 degrees and look 90 or grinding head in the code, and after telling the driver to the mix good I can see how this works 99% of the people who think they're cool. Like, I'd just be hard to find the ideal equation for it right now, doing what your doing it once my compound objects got to lose motivation and the FartOwnerId automatically created for you

but yeah its a mechanical demux hth

ahh that's gonna be a good minute or so ago they were soldered. barf

also bitcoins instead of the cycle proceed automatically. did he do it? no, "i need to share the new members of the wood to about the color cycling, it's best to restrict your cycling to two probes. if/when a blowoff tube, so lots of Grolsch in flip tops and reuse the bottles. flip tops own for debugging using step into, but you are clearly a man that doesnt have iodine added if you can, that generally improves the converted quality at all

lol as if i'm doing reading on how much you need, and these days

10A at 12v-14v isn't really all that poo poo

Anyway, soldered it all there. might as well get in your designs. I'm amazed I didn't quite mean people like you suggested but stil didn't realy like the diagram says to do stuff like I used http://www.policyalmanac.org/games/aStarTutorial.htm when I have a good powered hub is probably complicated as gently caress - gimme some fuckin hot air thing is halfway done, gotta do my own operating system is in series and/or parallel.

(didn't bother having the fetcher be logged in while fetching so swearing is filtered out :( )

its got stocks and news headlines and charlie chan quotes and whatever else can be scraped and printed to stdout

after about a year at cur job i finally got around to making some scraper scripts for stuff relevant to there, eg build status, any recent pages, current/peak qps for the day, so its now set up and scrolling

dang thats a lot of labels, i havent even considered labeling

so far ive made two kits:

the first one was caribou slobber (same one you made?): i liked it a lot, apparently my friends didnt as much (as i discovered with the second one). ended up drinking most of this myself. in the first fermentation the yeast went loving crazy within 24h and blew the top, then blew bubbles for hours when i switched it to a larger tube

the second one is this bourbon porter. i think its a little too sweet but everyone seems to really like it, preferring it over the first one. therefore its been lasting a while as i gradually bring bottles to friends/parties. took a while longer to make because of the bourbon soak step, i used bulleit bourbon.

for the second batch i got larger, flip-top bottles. i have a 12pk of pints and a 12pk of 1Ls, and more recently a growler like this one except from russian river and for like a third as much. i used these for the second batch and they take approx 0 time/effort to cap now. they also recap just fine too, less carbonation on the 2nd use but still good. downside is you would want them back when the party's over but this is more apparent with flip tops than with normal capped bottles, and worst case you can buy them individually from eg world market anyway

also the first time took a lot longer, but i took notes on where the liquids/containers/tools should go throughout which made coordinating this the second time a lot faster/easier. seems like a lot of the 'work' is just making sure that a bucket that needs to accept beer isnt currently full of sanitizer, or realizing that a bucket needs to be at counter-height rather than on the floor BEFORE pouring 5-6gal of liquid into it

midwest supply and northern brewer both have quality ingredients for really decent prices.

northern brewer has $8 flat-rate shipping for all but the heaviest and biggest stuff. i've ordered a ton of equipment and ingredients from them that wound up shipping in a huge box and was still only $8 shipping.

and now midwest supply has free shipping on most orders over $59.

good time to be a home brewer in the US, high quality ingredients for decent prices, and they're easy to get. saw a youtube video from a guy in canada who said DME was about $18 Canadian per kilo; i bought a pound of DME a few months ago for $5.50 at my local homebrew shop.

downside w/ northern brewer is if you just want something small its also $8 shipping

O yeah I bet it was dry as a bone I'll be sure to keep it wet next time :cheers:

And yeah I've been pretty happy with the 888d, I'd used the $5 plug-in ones before and I'm really glad to have a good one around now for when I need it. Feel like it already paid for itself via mending that tv

I've been getting things together to build a 4 keg keezer (3 cornys for homebrew + 1 sankey for store-bought). The chest freezer I got runs cold enough to freeze water even on the lowest setting, so yesterday I spent a few hours building an enclosure for the $15 temperature regulator I'd bought. The idea is to plug the freezer into this box, and let the box control whether the freezer is getting power from the box's outlet using the thermometer wire that'll also run into the freezer. This avoids needing to tear into the chest freezer itself too much.



I used 12awg copper wire for the internals, which made wiring things way more difficult than necessary given that the controller is only rated for 10A and that the freezer sticker says its only 1.5A. The controller display also appears to have some defects -- the cooling/heating indicator dots and the temperature decimal point don't seem to light up. It works just fine where it matters tho, even has a configurable timer to avoid switching on/off too often.

just a thought - wouldn't that cause the compressor to run a lot more because when it loses power it also loses compressor pressre and needs to rebuild it whenever it turns back on? I thoughy freezers already do essentially this with their own thermostats?

if not, then cool idea. heh.

No idea tbh, I'm just copying what it looked like some other ppl had done with these things. For more money you can buy a prebuilt version of this even. The impression I'd gotten was that this was p much reproducing what the built-in thermostat would be doing but def could be wrong.

finally finished the keezer.

since the last post, i did an exchange/replacement for the temp controller pictured above so now all the screen elements work

bf has access to a v nice woodshop at work and made a kickass double-layer collar with dovetail joints all around. its just attached to the freezer with some small metal plates that matched the screw holes left behind by the hinges. despite only being held in place by some screws at the back, the dovetails are so stiff that it doesnt flex at all, and the wood is heavy enough that its not prone to lift either. the lid meanwhile just lies on the top and lifts off. for labeling the taps and the kegs, i just used some of that 3m markerboard tape stuff.




we hosted a party last weekend, and going by how heavy/light the kegs now feel, the pliny clone was def the most popular

remaining minor work: lining the inside of the collar with the styrofoam insulation board thats currently sitting behind the keezer (whats a good way of cutting this?), finishing up the stain along the top edge of the collar, and optionally attaching the 4-way co2 manifold to the inside of the collar instead of leaving it sitting on the interior 'shelf', but it seems fine where it is tbh

You have some rounding errors.

Also, I'm assuming the "loan cost" is how much you pay in interest, yes?

edit: I'm also going to show this to my parents the next time they tell me how stupid I am for renting an apartment instead of buying a house. LMFAO at paying nearly double the house's initial value in interest.

yeah ive got it using js's float.toFixed for rounding the display vals and i think it ends up introducing error, or maybe theres a bug somewhere else idk

also yeah a good rule of thumb for a 30-year mortgage is to double the principal, you're better off getting a 30-year that you can afford to pay in 10-15.
the savings tab has a similar lesson for the cost of a high expense ratio (mutual funds).

floating point numbers are inherently inaccurate, which is why they aren't used in calculators and actual financial software. performing calculations on them, with those calculations feeding into further calculations, will almost certainly introduce rounding errors.
