38999 is a bad example, because the standard came first. Better example might be something like LEMO F-series connectors, which might just be called LEMO connectors in some contexts, yet have compatible connector series from at least a coup

Bill Nye was an aerospace mechanical engineer before he got into SciComm. I think it's important that there be a path from tinkering into engineering, if the individual desires it, perhaps in addition to "just go to college."

Terminal dwell time is a huge factor. Terminal dwell for Indianapolis for example is like 20 hours on average. Trains can be faster, sure, but there is a tremendous amount of time that a particular railcar will spend simply waiting to be as

A lot of connector series are are multi-sourced because big clients tend to require this. For example the 38999 series connectors used in military and aviation applications are made be TE, Amphenol, Souriau, ITT Cannon, Eaton... So it'

I work a lot with connectors and I'm not really sure what you mean by extruded pin connectors. Typically the terminals are formed from sheet, unless you're using fancy 38999-style pins, which I believe are machined (and very expen

I'm excited for ML's effect on weather forecasting, even as a general skeptic in the AI/LLM space. I use Windy to get my forecasts and have taken to comparing the outputs of the various models, and it's interesting to me

I wonder if it's banned simply because it doesn't feel enough like BBQ. Similar to why FIA banned CVTs in racing. It's kind of arbitrary but also I get it. Racing and BBQ have culture behind them, and dare I say 'vibes&#

If you go for a run at 0C with a T-shirt you'll probably be OK. Gloves and ear coverings would be nice. If you go for a run at 0F in a T-shirt, you won't be running for very long. That's like -18C.
