US 2016 election map
I made this map because I was inspired by try-to-impeach-this.jetpack.ai/
I wanted to visualize US voting not in blue/red but as shades of purple. So I created this visualization that represents 2016 voting data per county in the US. The heights are total votes cast in that county and the color is a blue/red gradient for % of the votes for Hillary Clinton in 2016.
Hopefully this gives a more nuanced picture of voting patterns across America. I can't wait to see how the map changes in 2020!
I made this with R and www.rayshader.com/ with data from electionlab.mit.edu/data#data

    I've been in that situation and here's how I avoid it now. Every year I crack open each bleeder then every second year I replace all of them with new ones. They never get the chance to freeze in place that way. The money saved by not adding to the swear jar pays for the bleeders.

This is what I do and works every time for me first hit gently straight down with small hammer to crack rust on threads then apply pb or wd at least 3 times over a 24 hr period 48 is best and walla

    Hello, I have considered doing the same thing but I am concerned with propane and electricity. What precautions should be taken? I am strong in C and C++ dev and pretty strong in electronics. I know very little about propane. Are you concerned at all with sparks? Arduino is low volt dc but even +5v can spark. The servo at the top of the propane tank is probably my biggest concern. EDIT: I just saw the fire extinguisher which is good for a fire but my concern with propane is spark+gas==boom

    Lucky that the Easy-Out tool didn't break on you ... it happens and then you are in real trouble! No need spray clean the inside, you reamed out the hole with a paper towel and added anti-seize to the new screw and that is good enough. It won't sieze up again.

    Nice work I found the best way to fill the pinholes is to sand with 50 grit Then wet sand with 100 grit and a slurry made of acrylic and cement. The cement binds with the material you are removing from the concrete and forces it in to all of the holes. Once that dries I sand with 200 and so on.

    Comparisons with the carbo Tenore? I just got in on the drop for the pros whilst owning the Tenore for a while now

    • @nearlynormal007
      @nearlynormal007 5 років тому

      The Carbo Tenore are more 'neutral' tonally, maybe some of the most neutral headphones around, especially at the price point. The T2 Pro have more bass, and more treble "sizzle" which can be sibilant on poor quality material (hip-hop Mp3s tend to be a little too hot in the upper treble). However, on good quality recordings, the extra detail comes across as more air and detail in t2 than in the Carbo Tenore. Materials and quality wise, the T2 Pro feel better and are more comfortable (they don't stick out the way the Carbos do) and the soft cable is comfortable looped over the ear. So, in all, they aren't as neutral as the Carbos, and they like the beautiful midrange of the Carbos, but they are a bit more 'fun' and 'lively'. Depends on what you like, I guess :)

    Hi, could you help me for 2 peace DS 18B20 and arduino corrections? I try 2 way first (pin 1 and 3 to GND and pin 2 pull up 4.7K to 5 V) . and Second ( pin 1 to 5V, Pin 2 to 4.7K via 5V and pin 3 to GND )versions but I read upper and lower temprature -196.6 and servo angle 1520 and servo contuniously turn clockwise. Thank you.

    • @nearlynormal007
      @nearlynormal007 6 років тому

      I suspect that you did not change the address for the sensors in the arduino sketch. Take a look at these lines DeviceAddress upperThermometer = { 0x28, 0x4C, 0xB6, 0x9A, 0x04, 0x00, 0x00, 0xA1 }; DeviceAddress lowerThermometer = { 0x28, 0x3F, 0xF2, 0x9A, 0x04, 0x00, 0x00, 0x96 }; You'll need to find the address for your sensors and replace those lines with your addresses. If you look in the references / inspiration folder on github there are some sketches and libraries that I used to find the address for each ds18b20 sensor. If you are only using 1 sensor, just copy the address twice :)

    • @nearlynormal007
      @nearlynormal007 6 років тому

      Also, make sure you can read the temperature from the ds18b20 in a simple sketch from the library examples before attempting this sketch. You need to ensure it runs when the data line of the sensor is connected to pin 2 of the arduino
