Lean philosophy is supposed to account for those dice-rolling moments. It’s not just “keep nothing in inventory”, there is supposed to be risk assessment involved.
The problem is that leadership doesn’t interpret it that way and just sees “minimizing inventory increases profit!”
While there is overlap it definitely isn’t 1:1 though. There are tons of ff non-linux users and tons of Linux non-ff users.
This isn’t to detract from what you said, just add to it.
F35A is now down to about $70 million/piece now, which further demonstrates the point of costs coming down with mass production I think.
It originally was more like $150 million.
Australian taskmaster is a treasure and there’s nothing you can say to convince me otherwise.
NASA has no control of flight paths. The FAA also doesn’t specify sonic-boom allowed flight paths. They just outright ban it (with a few exceptions) for any boom that could reach anywhere in the US.
FAA also doesn’t want to deal with people complaining about sonic booms like they did back in the 50s when this all started (they received tens of thousands of complaints) so they have an interest in making sure NASA lives up to their promises.
Yes, they would reduce the overpressure. By how much I’m not sure, but that’s part of the research.
They’re promising a perceived 75 dB level, equivalent to the volume of a dishwasher. Sonic booms are normally about 110 dB or about a jackhammer or a rock concert
And it’s not like you’d hear it all the time, just once in a while and only if you’re in the flight path.
I’ve told many (usually new) design engineers that they’re stupid for asking for 0.001" tolerance on parts when they only need 0.005 “or 0.010”. The difference between 0.010" and sub-10 micron is easily a factor of 100 in most parts, ESPECIALLY when you’re talking larger steel components like panels on a freaking car.
I bet you’re a blast at parties.
That station is always an outlier and not at all representative of prices in LA. Right across the street from that place they sell gas for a normal price.
Everyone in LA laughs every time someone references that gas station because it’s clearly either a trap (for tourists/rental cars on an expense account) or a front for a mob.
Just as an example, right now gas prices are around the $5.00-5.40 range (5.40 for premium).
That gas station is currently at $6.60/gal for regular. There’s a chevron right down the street for $5.15/gal
That account specifically is a bot, as it says in its profile and as its creator said.
As always, the tradeoff that money buys, as in almost every case, is time.
Once you do it the first time though it’s pretty easy to do it the next time.
Free for everyone, has links to all the necessary forms and literature, etc. Linked by the IRS on their how to file webpage.
You do NOT have to pay a service, despite tax preparation services acting like you have to.
I’m spooked by the fact that you have no idea how the US enriches uranium, or the difference between a power pressurized water reactor and a fast “breeder” reactor (if you were thinking of plutonium) or a centrifuge.
The US enriches uranium using a gas-centrifuge. The US also no longer recycles spent nuclear fuel, but France does.
No disagreement there, just clarifying that it wasn’t child porn.
Jailbait was the opposite. Technically covered up minors. Adorableporn is unclothed adults.
Not childporn. There’s a community called “adorableporn” that originally had, as part of its description “childlike” (other descriptors were things like “cute”) while being very clear that everyone on that community was 18+ (and even validating questionable posts with age verification). The wording of “childlike” has since been removed to ensure no confusion.
There was no instance of childporn being allowed.
Luxemburg doesn’t anymore
That’s about what YouTube creators would get for the same amount of hits, which still doesn’t make it a lot but I think it’s an interesting comparison.
Modern reactor design also pretty much makes runaway reactions nearly impossible, as in, you have to actually try to fuck it up.
Even Fukushima didn’t have a runaway reaction, it just lost coolant.
