Was nearly fired once for telling the truth. Made me realize I'm not sociopathic enough to laud power over people nor do I kiss enough ass to be coddled by higher ups. I'm quite happy with my IC/senior role. I am running into

17% is about what you would expect when the temperature goes from 72F to 100F. Inlet temperature is also a major contributor to fuel efficiency. Hot air isn't as dense so the ECU will add more fuel and retard timing to compensate to he

This must have been a really old boat that was grandfathered in before EU RCD rules went into effect. You never really get away from feces in the water. Any natural body is going to have fish, animal, and even human waste. But you can contr

To me, The Expanse was the equivalent of a reboot of B5. Interstellar politics, realistic physics, and multi-season plot arches made it a really dramatic, yet geeky show in the same vein as B5. If there is to be a reboot of B5 I feel it wou

Ok. Most of my experience the switches will have 2 modes for each port: 1G/2.5G/10G/25G/100G or 10M/100M/1G/2.5G. This is typical for datacenter switches. Found this out when my trusty 10/100M USB don

I’ve worked with many switches. I have not encountered a 10g switch that will negotiate to 10m. 100m is not automatic in most cases. These very old protocols are very different from modern 10g-100g. So much so that the transceivers may need

Ahh good old Redmine. I still use it internally. After GitHub allowed private repositories on the free tier I have had less need to use it. But now that people are starting to see the advantages of actual decentralized web a few of these pr

Maybe I don't understand the math but overtime is 1.5x wage. So to get around it farmers hire 2x workers at 1x wage? It seems that hiring more workers should be more expensive.

SCADA endpoints get smarter and more capable everyday. Many are running a simple API server. You'd fit right in because the codebase for hardware is approaching the modern coding practices of the web. I just met a family friend who cha

Coincidentally, I'm also a Hokie and really loved walking around downtown Blacksburg, Roanoke and Richmond (fuck C-ville, LOL). Like a lot of land-grant universities, it's a drop of blue in a sea of red. And that is why I haven&#x

Hi former Wall Street employees the planet could really use your help. Tech, Capital, and Web3 may be in a slump at the moment but industrial, environmental and infrastructure can't find enough people. The pay isn't as sexy and yo

Most of my streaming comes bundled. Through T-Mobile I no longer pay for AppleTV+, Netflix, nor Paramount+. I start and stop subscriptions all the time when my favourite shows aren't streaming. Using a dedicated fileserver running Dock

My HS one of the first to have block scheduling. I would say the only negative about it was the AP/IB exams were held in early May. The high school year ended early June. So, there was a mad scramble to cram for the AP classes you took

So much of this. Public transit has to be a better alternative to driving a car. Time is the biggest factor to getting people to use it. I used to take the express bus into my office in the city. Since they had dedicated lanes it took me th

Good question. My apartment in Europe had a steel plate door with a gargantuan lock that with 10 latch points. My apartment in the US has a cheap ~$30 commercial deadbolt you could defeat by pushing really hard. I looked at getting one of t

I don't think you are required to believe to attend. I've had a few conversations with clergy and I'm pretty sure they aren't sure they believe themselves. What they do have in abundance is faith.

You end up with more Game of Thrones season 6. Where Benioff and Weiss (2 inexperienced writers) try to write a season without George R. R. Martin and turn it into a steaming pile of shit. Yes, anyone can write a passable show just like any

I would prefer to buy my health insurance on the open market. But without the subsidies its pretty uneconomical. The fact that your employer offering it automatically locks you out of the best plans on the marketplace is anticompetitive and

Competitive? In every job I've had it was basically the same 3-4 HMOs: Aetna, Bluecross, Cigna, and United Healthcare. If you are getting employer provided healthplans, as most Americans are, those are your options, 4. With so few opti

I had an unsecured student credit card, 20 years now. Its limit was $800, no deposit required; just enough to pay for books, lab supplies, and a few meals. I know because I kept it as my last resort emergency card all these years later. Or

You only get the net price after applying and submitting a FAFSA. The net price is only useful if you intend to go there. It's functionally useless for any other purpose. If the price says $100 then for most everyone it's $100.

15-20% == 80-85% What is a B average? "B" = 80-89% So, their standardized scores more or less lines up with their grades.
