callipygous : having shapely buttocks

They used to have a reputation for employing smart people… Dumbass middle managers took over a while back and started making the stupidest decisions.

That’s what happens when you do it yourself. You notice the flaws more.

I spent months redoing my bathroom. I moved a wall, re-routed plumbing installed a new tub, and tiled. So much tiling. I ripped some out I was so pissed at how it went in. I still see every spot that I didn’t like.

After that experience I went into the bathroom at my work and looked at the tiling in there. The tiles directly in front of the unrinal I’ve been peeing in for 6+years. They were way worse than some of the stuff I was fussing over, and I never noticed.

Give yourself credit for finishing the fucking job. Learn to not make the same mistakes, and go out and make new mistakes to learn from.

Maybe the CCP is paying the difference?

This is very helpful, thank you.

No fucking way. It’s a PMA device. The rub is that M. it stands for market. As in clinical trials have a lower threshold.

RIP

Really liked the fire upon the deep and it’s sequels.

I can’t believe I haven’t seen that yet.

Gen Xer here…

It didn’t use to be this bad. The FCC (and ftc) dropped the bag (regulatory capture), letting clear channel gobble up stations.

When I was a kid had a couple great local stations back in the day. One was a highschool station that local bands could send in cassette tapes and they would play them on Tuesdays. They had a Mosh Monday curated by local metalhead kids/young adults (there was vocational training at the radio station in evening classes).

Even the commercial channels were better. Not great or anything, but they had a lot more variety.

The marketing team for those over priced bike tires probably.

You can change the Af temp, but it is not relevant in this case because they are using the superelastic properties, not the shape memory properties if Nitinol.

I question many aspects of this design for the consumer market, but not as you describe. Seems to me it’s likely to be very expensive, and while you might not get flats it is still going to wear no matter what.

SEO spam gives them ad clicks

It does? I thought the point of SEO was to show up in search results without having to pay for keyword placement.

I would hate to submit a report to a federal agency that said, “we paid the hackers and they said we could use our equipment again.” Wrenches would be trash after this, (maybe send the back to the factory and ask them to recert them).

Gotta call bullshit here.

Skilled workers make mistakes. Give them all the time in the world and they will still make mistakes because they are human. The trick is to give them feedback loops, as short as possible, so they can recognize their mistakes. This should be part of process controls based on risk.

Don’t get me wrong, I would not want to validate this network wrench solution. There is a fairly narrow band where it makes sense to me which would require a fair amount of DFM (design the assembly to have unique bolt heads for each torque setting etc). But when you are making things that people rely on for their life… You have to have layered systems and these are a legitimate layer.

I haven’t even heard of these. Except Who cloned Tyrone (really good)

Is harvest moon just seven samurai in space?

If you dig into the links in the article, there is one study finding data entry workers in India worked only 87% as hard as their in office counterparts, however, the studies authors are quick to point out living conditions and management styles are significantly different there than in the US. There is also a study in the US which found that approximately 40% of time saved by not commuting went to additional work. Guess which study is brought up in more articles by FORTUNE?

Yes but that can be adjusted. The factory can provide what you need. The design is the limiting factor here. Flat panels are simply bad design.
