I had intended to point out the minimal amount of this material; I'd be surprised if you could offset the cost of additional milling just to recover it

I don't see this as a cost saving - the radius isn't material that would make it onto another piece of lumber, it'd be the waste between rectangles. In addition, keeping a machine tuned and sharp to cut the radius costs money

No, ive never heard of film :| Briefly glimpsing a negative, and being forced to make an enlargment and checking the print quality, are two different things. And obviously you can't prohibit viewing a negative you haven't seen yet

One example would be protecting employees from someone just bringing in photos of themselves with the sole intent of exposing themselves to the employee, as they have a captive audience.

Did you use a subaddress (user+sub@email.com) when you registered? Though I can't find whether twitter supports this or not. Ive encountered websites that don't handle sub address well, sometimes ignoring the extension, other time

I agree that its certainly common, but that is why it was imperative for Google to have had policies in place to require PPE. Someone entering an arc-flash risk cabinet without PPE should have been disciplined or fired by a supervisor. And

So Google doesn't provide/require PPE for electrical cabinets? Arc-flash gear has been around for decades, its terrible to hear about preventable injuries, especially at a company that can afford safety. I hope the workers can ful

Definitely possible but i think there are no more than 2 facilities within any reasonable distance of me. And they've been outsourcing a lot to USPS and 'the other two' lately. My suspicion is they are inundated and forced to

They ditched the 2-day promise years ago. I'd seen an article somewhere that suggested you can complain to their support about not meeting the 2 day and they might give you some form of rebate or giftcard. Prime now only means free shi

Yes, I've had items sold by Amazon, ship from their own facility, after waiting 4 days to ship even though it was in stock, only to have it relabeled and delivered late by UPS. Ive had items that said next day turn into weeks just afte

I like your take, though I think the analogy is more accurately applied as -- if you need lifejackets you are a bad sailor, or if you need a bicycle helmet you are a bad rider

Learning it recently for a small game design, I was surprised that you couldnt easily copy a table, and even more suprised you needed "metatables" to do it...the extra steps seem far from simple. Maybe I'm just missing someth

I'd argue that a sliderule is at least something you can manipulate with your hands and immediately see the output relationship. Tangent, I use a tape measure at work and you can fold it back on itself to make a basic slide rule for qu

Constantly checking in and reporting the issue sometimes irritates companies enough to fix it. Every week ask if they have the update done yet

Cheap, simple, easy to learn about, and write assembly for. Also the new tinys have alot of neat features, and 8-bit is just retro :P

Both Facebook and Instagram have been doing fake notifications for a couple years; for me the end effect is to ignore all red icons or notifications, period. I'm sure someone thought it was a great engagement pattern, but it is also a

Why is it desperately needed? People have chosen to waste ridiculous amounts of energy on a wide range of stupid things, why should the rest of us suffer loss of natural habitats to support that? The point of renewable energy is to help the

What sucks is they have been clear cutting forests to build solar farms here... Wind is great, reusing former farm land is fine, but leveling a forested area to leave a dust field is so sad.

That 'face' is what is required of the job, similar to when a waiter smiles and makes you feel important even though they are drowning in debt. That said, I'm sure some are happy there. But the fact they wanted to unionize is
