Like several other posts I've seen on here, I'm planning on writing my own control software and running it on an ESP32. Unfortunately I do not have any good outdoor space to test it, so I was planning on flying it indoors. From my understanding that's pretty much a terrible idea unless I limit it to the nano / ~40mm / 1S size class.

The small size is otherwise fine for my purposes, but the specific problem I'm having is in finding any standalone 1S ESCs. Pretty much all I see are the AIO boards with the flight controller built in, and as far as I know it's not possible to use the integrated ESC on them with my own FC. The only thing I've found is the [MX-5A](https://www.aliexpress.us/item/

r/linkedin•

When viewing a job posting, there is a premium feature titled "See how you compare to others who clicked apply," with a subsection "Candidate education level." It reads something like:

X% have a Master's Degree (Similar to you) Y% have a Master of Science Z% have a Doctor of Philosophy

I have no idea if this matters, but "Master's" and "Master of Science" are apparently counted separately. I do have a Master of Science degree, but had apparently selected just "masters" under my education. I corrected this a while ago, but I'm still seeing text like the above.

I don't know what the Linkedin experience is like from the job poster / recruiter side, but my concern is that the jobs I'm i

South bay hiking groups?

Events, Activities & Sports

Does anyone know of any good hiking clubs/groups in the south bay area (or where to find one)? I've searched around a bit but the ones I've found are mostly for more experienced hikers. I'm working on getting more in shape but am probably looking to do somewhat shorter ones for the time being.

Also ideally would like to find a group that is mostly a similar age range (30's).

I'm basing it on this design from Prusa, but I'm thinking if I decide I don't need to actually fret the strings it massively simplifies things. The tolerances don't need to be nearly as precise and I can just print the neck instead of buying one. I figure I'll only need the following hardware:

  • Bridge/tailpiece
  • Nut
  • Tuning machines
  • Pick guard(?)
  • Pickup(s) and the usual electronics

I plan to use a Stratocaster-type bridge due to the simplicity, it doesn't seem like I need to put much thought into the rest of the items besides the choice of pickup. Besides generally making sure it doesn't

r/oculus•

Placed an order last week for the Quest 2 elite strap + battery + case. I checked out as a guest and of course didn't pay much attention to the confirmation page, because they send you all the details in the confirmation email. That email never came, I assume because I mistyped my email address, but my card was charged so the order did go though. That seems like it shouldn't be much of an issue though, surely if I provide support with my payment info and shipping address they should be able to find it. Well apparently that isn't the case and they told me without by order number of email there's nothing they can do.

I've of course read all the horror stories about Oculus support on here, so

r/Python•

GitHub link. I haven't submitted it to PyPI yet, I'm waiting to see if people are actually interested in using it. Same goes for documentation (although the docstrings are pretty thorough).

This was done for a particular project of mine but I think a lot of people would find it useful. My specific use case was that I had a couple of library functions which did some long-running calculations so I wanted to display a progress bar both in a command-line tool (using click) and when testing interactively in a notebook (using tqdm).

Essentially this package allows library developers to report progress information from within a function without

r/GradSchool•

I mastered out of my PhD program early last year after a long period of severe burnout left me unable to complete my quals. I'm still sort of trying to process exactly what went wrong and what I could have done differently, but in retrospect I think a large factor was an incompatibility with my advisor. I chose the lab based on research interests alone thinking I'd be able to make it work, but obviously that didn't really happen. However, I did really love the program overall and was really excited about what I was working on.

​

Now I'm thinking about reapplying but I feel nervous about having to address why I dropped out, and especially about convincing them that the same thing

I'm currently using a late-2017 Macbook pro, which overall I have been quite satisfied with (although I got it for free through my grad program, so the price isn't factored into that). However I've been getting increasingly frustrated constantly having to work around the low memory (8GB) and ridiculously small SSD (128GB), which of course aren't upgradable. The Dell XPS 15 is looking like a much better alternative to the current Macbook options, but I'd like to hear other suggestions.

r/seservers•

I've got a ton of hours in single player for this game but have not been able to try the multiplayer until recently due to network restrictions at my previous residence. I've tried quite a few different servers but haven't really figured out how to get started playing properly, I pretty much just end up building the same things on my own and not encountering any other humans. Can anyone suggest a good survival server to get started in where I can maybe team up with some other players to take on challenging NPCs?

r/SCYTHE•

Disclaimer: I've never played Scythe, but I have a friend who is really into it. I've seen a lot of cool looking designs for 3d printed models and additions on here and was planning on making her some for her birthday, but not being familiar with the game it's hard to tell which are the best ones. I believe she already has literally every official addition to the game, plus some 3d printed organizers. Could anyone recommend any upgrades amenable to 3d printing that a hardcore player would enjoy?

I don't know when I lost my social security card but I'm sure I haven't seen it for at least a decade. So far I've gotten along just fine by having the number itself memorized. Is there anything the physical card is needed for?

r/3Dprinting•

I'm just getting starting with 3D printing and I'm finding a lot of cool mechanical toys and designs on Thingiverse, but I've noticed a lot of them require extra hardware such as screws/bolts or bearings. Specific examples I keep seeing are M3 and M5 machine screws of various lengths + nuts and 608 ball bearings. I'd like to just buy a whole bunch of the common stuff up front so I can have it on hand when I find something new I want to make. Can anyone with more experience recommend some things to put on my shopping list?
