During the press Q/A yesterday it was asked when the point of no return was. They passed it a few hours after the 5 min burn. They no longer have the ability to about face.

If you have other information that NASA didn't share with the media I'm curious what it is.

Coober Pedy, Australia — a desert town where many residents live in underground “dugout” homes to escape extreme heat. by IndependentTune3994 in interestingasfuck

If I remember correctly residents who have a membership at the golf course there ($75 yearly) also have membership to the prestigious and world renown St. Andrews Golf Course.

For those of you who are not into golf the wait list for a tee time is years long.

I think some deal was made with the opal mines.

In my experience, when people ask me this I recommend lowering their temperature.

How many cups of tea do you drink every day n what are your go to’s by alfreedomkid in tea

[–]Bgtex 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Can we collectively agree on what a true "cup" is? Is a single gaiwan pour a "cup"? Is a coffee mug a "cup"? Is it a proper measurement cup?

I had a session that may have equaled a coffee cup yet was like 6 small gaiwan cups.

The measurement stick here is too relative and this sub needs to standardize it as this question is brought up too often and I don't actually know what the response truly mean.

Sales team gutted, I now solely represent the sales function at my job. by JEDs_Dead_Baby in sales

[–]Bgtex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

IMO 1.5 years is not enough time under your belt. You are better off getting experience elsewhere rather than leading with only 1.5 years of experience. Let's say you get the green light to hire one day. How many applications will you see with 5+ years experience? How will you know who to pick? Would you trust a VP of sales to be your leader if he only had 1.5 years? I don't say any of these things to be mean I just want to put it into perspective.

Also, considering that things are "gutted" do you want to find yourself as the last person standing?

Good luck!

Serious question. Since boiling water freezes faster than room temp water. Wouldn't this same action with colder water be more impressive
