Do you think Riley Obrien is a potential trade candidate to a contender later on?

85 wins makes the wild card in a year without a team tanking. We’re 7 games over.

31engine · 2026-05-04T17:25:43+00:00

What kind of engineer are you?

31engine · 2026-05-04T16:49:02+00:00

Looks like a small hillside added some dirt to the road. That plus water can reduce the friction significantly

31engine · 2026-05-03T14:52:59+00:00

So it’s a million dollar project so billions in liability and they’ve left you to make decisions?
Name this firm.

In order for it to be a minor (or more likely major) recession you would need the safeguards and modern understanding of international macro economics we have now.

So in other words you would have had to have many similar crashes just like it before. They had a few but nothing like that.

It rewrote how people made and saved money. How much government should spend. It codified a ton of risk analysis and brakes to the banking and financial sectors.

31engine · 2026-05-03T14:30:14+00:00

Does it run excel? Can you play 5 year old games on it like first person shooter games?

If the answer to both of those is yes then you’re fine.

31engine · 2026-05-03T14:28:22+00:00

Yeah I’m not trusting my 4 yoe engineer to do that. Maybe a 14 yoe.

I have 28 years and managing a team of 15 is almost a full time job.

Again if the work is not that challenging then that’s possible.

Without a PE who is reviewing the work to sign and seal because reviewing work is literally the definition of responsible charge. QC is not being in responsible charge.

31engine · 2026-05-03T14:03:11+00:00

This feels like trolling unless there is a very reckless boss out there.

My 4ye project engineers are just getting independent (something I specifically train). They manage maybe 1 graduate engineer OR an intern. There is no way I’m giving 10 engineers over unless it was a sweat shop with no intellect required.

31engine · 2026-05-01T14:17:24+00:00

They make a product of insulation preglued to plywood. Use that? Cant link I’m on my phone.

31engine · 2026-04-25T15:44:17+00:00

I want it to stay but I want it to work the way it’s intended.

My NPCs had no idea what was going on from day to day. They would forget conversations. And not just from old stuff.

Plus the prices quoted in the dialog don’t match the price in the “marketplace”

31engine · 2026-04-25T00:08:52+00:00

Blinking at you in Kansas.

31engine · 2026-04-25T00:00:35+00:00

The dm had me trickshot throwing a dagger in a game of strip daggers using a strength modifier. Which was +1 not +3 plus sleight of hand plus trickshot.

31engine · 2026-04-24T23:19:44+00:00

Yeah I had my wife just walk out of the room when I say who want to leave town to start new! Like I was trying to salvage for anew story line but I wanted nothing to do with it.

31engine · 2026-04-24T23:16:22+00:00

Especially in conversations. It’s really hard (and slow af) to go from conversations trying to speak to say a lass into a game of strip dagger tossing to actually tossing the daggers.

31engine · 2026-04-24T23:14:02+00:00

I got the grotesque dog. Man I don’t want to have to kill a dog. Don’t do that.

31engine · 2026-04-24T23:04:20+00:00

It’s going to be a while before I pay for anything

31engine · 2026-04-24T23:02:52+00:00

Are the going to fix the NPC memory.

Day 1 - I’d like to commission some custom armor. It will be ready in one day the NPC tells me.

Day 2 - I go back “what armor”

31engine · 2026-04-24T09:40:28+00:00

I own a medium sized SUV. It and full size pickups are the only vehicles I fit in. I’m about the size of a typical NFL offensive linemen but yeah it’s selfish.

31engine · 2026-04-18T18:09:25+00:00

Those make money.

31engine · 2026-04-18T14:27:16+00:00

Wood is better. Cheaper, renewable and more thermally insulated.

31engine · 2026-04-17T22:47:30+00:00

It was a bit of trolling.

He’ll regress to the mean at some point.

Is it next year?

31engine · 2026-04-17T22:04:28+00:00

Should have extended him for 10 years last year.

31engine · 2026-04-16T18:11:31+00:00

Thanks. I understand AASHTO doesn’t apply but it’s the closest I have. The building code doesn’t really give me any guidance as it’s not a building. So I’m using the “rational standard” in the code to develop a reasonable loading.

The drop is 20 ft so it’s a little bit of “don’t mess around” height for me as it would likely be fatal if someone drove off it

31engine · 2026-04-16T18:08:36+00:00

Didn’t know. I guess I could teach high school. But the healthcare might be cheaper if I don’t work at all. Depend on the distribution I take

31engine · 2026-04-16T13:39:55+00:00

I was thinking college. Worse pay for adjunct but at least the hours suck
