hey hey, this is exactly what happened to my engineering career right here.
"This code will never be used."
"Oh, ok." proceeds to write garbage to test out various features and different ways of doing the same thing
"Hey, this code is garbage and lacks consistency. Lets show it to everyone to warn them about this guy. We won't mention it until letting him struggle a couple years, but make sure he doesn't get any interesting work."
Every job I've applied for that required any level of physical work had "must be able to lift 50 lbs" as a requirement. It's a little heavier than a step ladder, bags of potatoes, flour, cement and gravel are typically in that range as well. It's not an unreasonable requirement. You typically won't lift them overhead, but floor-to-shoulder is a very common lift.
Extra fun fact about tinkering: The air gap in the transformer means that your GFCI won't detect a ground fault, and your circuit breaker won't detect a short because as far as the mains line is concerned, there is nothing wrong with the circuit.
This doesn't happen under normal operation, because the chassis allows for a short and/or a ground fault. But when you take that chassis off, and especially when you take the transformer out, you're putting yourself into a life threatening situation.
Hammocks are great if you're sleeping on a ship and don't have something gyroscopically stabilized. They change the big and unpredictable swings caused by waves into more predictable swings like a pendulum.
yeah, it's 90% hypothesizing. Don't take it as me saying what you should or shouldn't do. Obviously, I'm not in a position to do that. It's just... if your neighbour pulled up with a car that's powered by cooking oil, you'd probably look at it and go "really? that can't work." and hope that he understands that it's curiousity, confusion and frankly a lack of knowledge of something so foreign.
I've seen a couple guys (father/son) try it out. Dad said it basically reversed his diabetes, son was pretty much OK the whole time I knew him.
I dunno man. Carnivore diets aren't for me. I just don't get how it works, doesn't mean that it doesn't work though.
I would disagree that the kind of data being talked about lends itself to misuse. Management in general, and especially in well run companies, tends to be responsible and judicious in their use of various metrics and getting a good, holistic view of employee interactions and engagements is vital to ensuring that high performers are identified and adequately mentored.
Ideally, this type of data could be paired with a sentiment analysis engine and an emotional identifying model that could help coach negative employees toward more positive and beneficial interactions. This is an area that would require a delicate balance to prevent misuse, but, given most HR departments hesitance to act without strong background information, it would likely be a net positive in nearly every case.
'scuse me I need to go wash my mouth with soap. I just gamed the metrics that would be produced with this and I feel dirty.
Are you consuming entire animals? Just meat?
No snark there, either. Skeletal muscle alone isn't a complete diet. It's lacking in a few areas. Eating nothing but meat does seem to improve body composition, insulin sensitivity, some autoimmune conditions, some people report more steady energy levels... but, scurvy is eventually a problem, as will be hemochromatosis, among other things.
thread poster could include a fourth alternative... the "hesitant adopter," left behind when they missed the bus early on and every goodname they wanted was taken while they took the tour of the service.
not even the badnamers want them. they're not the type to "go along to get along"
I'd be completely flabbergasted if they trained an AI to parse source code while playing a game.
I think it's the "lack of addition" rather than the "expressly disallowed" training rules that are being referred to.
Gravity is not, in fact, the attraction of lesser mass to greater mass. Gravity is the repulsion of lesser mass by greater mass.
In the case of the Earth, this means you are repulsed toward the Earth by the weight of the column of space "above" you, and are only prevented from falling through the Earth by its density. The Earth is relatively equally displaced by the column surrounding it, meaning you do not notice this effect.
Gravity seems to come in waves because all things in the relevant column are moving, but the shifting of mass is almost unimportant to your perception because it is such a small value. The magnitude and frequency is such that it goes unnoticed to all but the most sensitive equipment.
.... completely no evidence available, but, it sounds kind of reasonable.
yeah, Alaska and Sibera are pretty much the only places with worse winters than where I learned. I'll keep this in my pocket for times when I'm spinning a wheel and am out of other options. We only get a few inches a year here, but my traction control might be out someday.
I've never heard of this, and I learned how to drive in places with very rough winters.
You just hold the brake (lightly) with one foot, and gas with the other? This doesn't sound as useful as putting the car in 2nd, or rocking back and forth?
