Very cool. I just took a course on graph theory, and immediately though of the Ramsey numbers. Sure enough he made some progress there. What makes the Ramsey numbers fascinating to me is that they are a problem that goes from pen and paper

I don't believe that McDonald's fries are made from ground potato product. Based on your comment I did some reading, and didn't find any references supporting your claim, but did find some recent articles that describe McDona

The reason I, and I suppose so many other people took up bread making was because it was an interest that was limited by available time in the house. I used to rarely make the bread I wanted because I'm not home enough on a weekday and

I have found that educational osmosis becomes less effective over time as I fill my head with bits of information. I have to exert more pressure learning to cause the information to travel across the barrier into my mind. This also explains

They are all buggy. Mine does not beep after the door is open, but rather the start / +1 minute button will start the microwave with one minute, or add one minute if the microwave is "cleared" or running. If it hits zero seco

For bamboo you see the fast part, but not the slow part. The shoots are prepared over a number of months where all the nodes are made underground. Then when it is ready the space between the nodes is added causing the very fast telescoping

I agree that it is part of it. I know that the first time I got back in my car after the first month of staying at home I felt like I didn't know how to drive.

At work we have a test for these things: "If you would be uncomfortable explaining something to an auditor or judge, don't include it in the product." I think it is a good test because there are many in-jokes and engineering

Exactly, I have a friend who is a forklift driver for Costco. He loves that the work is very self directed, that a portion of the warehouse is essentially his to make as clean and organized as he wishes. The main requirements are that all t

Sorting by optical recognition and air guns to separate a falling curtain of product into two output streams is already a product. The development of these machines are the reason that 10 or 15 years ago you stopped seeing bad beans in bulk

Not only does the Young's modulus hardly change between soft and hard steel, it barely changes for any steel. This provides an interesting constraint for some types of engineering. For example, if you are making a bridge you can use be

I'm not sure about this. I think a lot of why store brands work is because you trust the store not to cheat you. If the product is bad you know who to blame. The store wants the product to be good because they will loose customers of t
