It’s not perfect . It can get ‘stuck’ trying the same things over and over again . Needs a nudge sometimes . “ hey can we double buffer “ , “ what about a software sprite “ - you know guidance in a direction . Programmers will become obsolete soon

I’m on about it writing the code ! Not using it as a glorified search engine !!

Absolutely! At first ! I corrected it once I did the research . it wasn’t a simple adafruit issue . Getting the right gpio setup for a quality Chinese tft is somewhat hit and miss . This it performed poorly on . But since then - it’s done months of work in 3 hours .

Why an earth not !! It’s been stunning

After the initial hours wasted with ChatGPT getting it wrong we are now in a new era ! . I’m completely blown away ! . In a few hours we have a good start on a completely custom solution . It’s an incredible tool and clearly negates 90% of programmers . Incredible !! Whilst I could do everything we have achieved it would have taken me months !

A load of guys trying to do accurate measurements. None of you know what 6 inches is !

Yes . Then apply some gel . Careful where you put the oscilloscope probe though .

Like sex ; you need to keep going …

(expletive deleted) me ! Taken 3 days to get an esp32 tft screen working . ChatGPT talking bollocks and sending me in loops . Got it working now via human skills !

Bast ! . I’m not technically finished yet . So I’ll keep plodding …

Tinkercad for simple things . Takes 10 seconds to learn

Agree . I was surprised . Just expected a small sample for colour tbh . They might be disappointed with my £150 order 🙄

I mean that’s just a free sample !!

Crumbs ! Ordered sample yesterday. Arrived today ! Not just a tiny slither either ! I will be ordering from https://www.tradewarehouse.co.uk/

Yeah but I’ve got to design a thread and correct size barb - success rate at that design is zero .

I think so . I only stuck that on to test with a threaded tap - so it’s not a requirement to have that .

That’s for a watering system - so has to be a skinny

Won’t fit if I cut the barb off - thought of that So many things . But for now a generic connect any size pipe to any other size pipe magic thingy

No matter how many ‘water’ fittings I have - never the right one . The sump connector output is barbed - way too big . My pipe ( on the left ) with a nice and easy tap connector on at the moment . Cant seem to find a suitable connector which ever way I try it .. What do I need here ??

Thinking this might look smart

How the (expletive deleted) will that look ! Some (expletive deleted)ing brick effect Lino wrapped round a pipe . Rather have a photo of my manhood on the pipe ; pipes just about long enough 😘😉

Perhaps I lean over the coping from above ; do the middle bracket “ as best I can “ then the others to suit as I can lean to get them . Happier with the longest unsupported run at around 700cm then

Leaning over left and right I can reduce the unsupported span to 1.4m . I have been told that standard for all guttering is 600cm for brackets . Though looking at my black guttering ( roofer installed ) I think he must of run out of clips ! - certainly not 600cm gap … Do I risk 1.4m ?

Roof area is approx 15m x 3m . If I tip half the guttering in my favour ( which I think is doable ) then I’ll get water off half that . Cant really lean over the wall to fix anything and drill - way to awkward . A unistruct to span 3m with only 2 fixings will need to be chunky to hold guttering . Going to look pap . Might just have to hire scaffolding ( rather than a ladder ) .

What about something like a unistruct bar bolted to the top of the copings ( I can access from the otherside ) and the guttering clips hang off that ??
