1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

my manager can't believe that it takes hours or days to build new features and keeps asking to see the code lol. if something takes more than a week it triggers more meetings to talk about why it's taking time

"it's just an entirely page composed of 18 new UI elements to build from scratch with 2 new API tie ins, a new database implementation, how long could it take, 3 days?"

 

Gross

 

I mean, who else but them would know best, right?

 

All too common in different industries - I don't know how these personalities exist, especially in leadership positions.

 

100% it's going to happen.

 

@Kwikvette

perfect the beginner huh

 

I tried but it had a protected left hand turn when I had a red so I couldn't follow it or see it for long

 

That's actually a hell of a deal!

But yeah easy for a beginner.

CAD is where 95% of the work takes place really, and it doesn't change whether you're working on a big table or small table.

You should definitely buy it, I'll happily go over getting you dialed in.

 

oh my god we spent days arguing about a database implementation. they insisted on doing it a super inefficient way because they wanted to shove entire lists of data into one entry instead of breaking it in to separate entries for faster read/writes...so after a lot of arguing I went ahead and built it that way

 

rabble rabble bitch bitch

 

“Crib midget” is usually my go to when I haven’t sussed out the nature of my company

 

Cads easy

 

Yeah it is, so if you've got that down then just buy it

 

Y though

 

Your words aren't working again

 

I fixed it

 

Cause, lack of tools are a big reason why some people can't make what they want/need.

My friend that's committed much more time into CNC than I have moved up to a 5' x 10' and just called me last night to say he sold it.

He's got a 5' x 10' laser and 4' x 8' laser expected in the next 7 weeks and told me a 120T press is in his future as well.

In short, these tools can easily pay for themselves and more. I expect to do the same but at a smaller scale; people are more than willing to support such work (even small businesses) as they often find themselves subbing their work out of state.

I just picked up a new customer yesterday and he's bringing parts over tomorrow for me to make.

 

I just don't think a table is gonna weather well in the empty lot

 

Awe shoot I keep forgetting, no shop yet right?

 

I sold that shit
