Idk about bleach, but if you look at some of the studies, 600deg treatment for over a day and similar protocols were being evaluated, and even those scales of energy weren't clearly enough.

I'm not arguing for or against allowing special orders. But that's on the manager, not the customer. The server having an issue with it (when the manager doesn't) is a problem, and blaming customers for making requests is a p

All factors baked into the managers decision to accept special orders. This is just the server disagreeing with both the boss and customer, and then wondering why they might be having a problem with a satisfaction based compensation system.

It's not obfuscation if it's entirely at the customer's discretion. Google flights doesn't allow me to choose what percentage in fees I feel is appropriate for the service.

If the difference in definition between two categories is minor, then a minor modification is all that should be required. Either it meets the definition of the lower taxed category or it doesn't, at time of import. Any other way of in

No- the norm is for things to be imported, then combined or modified and sold as a new product, without paying the import tax based on the new product. If import tax on a cpu is x, and motherboard is y, should you have to pay computer impor

Even that "excess" capacity was capped by what capacity still exists, so economic truths and results where demand exceeds supply still applies. And regulations basically mandate that power distributors/wholesalers must buy it

There's a huge amount of uncertainty, mainly. The EPA is trying to act on its own, and despite losing lawsuits, cost of regulatory compliance and lawsuits goes up. Investors don't want to risk entering the "new market" i

It's more about expected supply and demand under certain constraints than any particular winterizing technology. Cold weather spikes (or stretches) are expected in the north. It's sort of like asking why Northern or Western coasta

As long as renewable energy advocates refuse to subsidize sufficient reliable backup capacity as part of the cost accounting in pricing renewables, events like Texas will become even more common, and in places that can't just blame it

A large portion of capacity was prohibited by DOE and EPA rules from coming online unless the floor price was $1500/MWh. There's your absurdity. This isn't a greedy capitalism problem, it's a govt manifested price hike a

For one thing, the DOE emergency market waiver to temporarily exceed emissions limits set a market floor price of $1500. [0] So that's your starting price before buyers ever bid/compete for those MW. (Emissions limits are especi

Deviation from 60 hz is a measure of overloaded or oversupplied grid. They were "dialing up" the turbines to compensate for overload but it was insufficient and causing the turbines to redline/exceed operating allowances.

As it exists, they arrest and charge based on state law, unless they have something federal to charge. Hypothetically, you could model it off of migratory wildlife enforcement, with dual jurisdiction, where a violation of a relevant state l

Yea, but my point is that even disregarding accreditation a "degree in engineering" is more often BS/ MS and focusing on titles doesn't reliably work. Every degree in my school's college of engineering was BS/M

by beerandt 5y ago
Depends on accreditation and licensing as recognized by your state more than the words in the name of the degree. There are far more BS than BE programs producing engineers in the US.

At some level, it's been sort of nice that Google has been nudging me off of their platforms one product at a time, while reminding me to not become overly reliant on the ones I continue to use.

I'm not sure how you see this as incompatible. Ball bearings require "lubrication", and the lack of good lubricants is exactly why they use fluids that end up behaving as I described, and why "lubricant" is the wron

I suppose you'd label them "mostly peaceful" if only they'd have burnt everything down around them.

Even the most basic municipal landfill is lined, capped, and waterproofed such that even hazardous materials that might end up there aren't "polluting the environment". There are reasons to sort out certain waste, usually as

Torx and starheads are great for things like soft wood, but too much torque screwing into metal or plastic is going to crack the casing or strip the threads or hole instead of the head. Similarly they work well for bolt applications with a

Not only this, but the correct driver head is designed to spin out before stripping the screw threads or over tightening. The head stripping instead of the threads or hole is a feature, as the desired point of failure. A quality screw can s

20-07 includes non prosecution for trespassing, which seems to be the only crime the DA is willing to either charge or plea out in the majority of these cases. Presumably because of its inclusion in the directive.

Unless you're ordering something that's essentially some form of manufacturer to consumer drop shipping. Then it could look more like a retail delivery than a consumer one.
