EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

Summer complaining is real complaining, I-am-gonna-die complaining. In winter it's more just our national pastime without any real meaning. :lol:
And all this time I thought the national pastime of Canada was watching a fight hoping a hockey game would break out.
 
Thank you, MC!

I was once an automation engineer and taught robotics combined with automated resistance and projection welding, painting, gluing, sealing and material handling.
All those different machines had to talk to each other as well as the logic controllers managing the systems and PCs.
In addition to binary, some spoke octal, some decimal and some hexadecimal.
Different brands of robots had different proprietary languages. If you were lucky, some used a derivative of C++.
Everything still goes down the wires as 1s and 0s.
Eventually I could convert octal, decimal and hexadecimal in my head. One could say, you would you want to be able to do that?
Octal was used in the early days of automation and some of the biggest suppliers still use octal. Newer platforms use decimal.
ah, :th
Mediterranean see, we usually gets the fringes of the big European rain systems.
lol, he was yanking your chain
