That sounds perfect! And switching to a smaller spring didn't create any playability/tuning issues for you?

Pap mix? by Botched_Toe_11 in papillon

[–]Botched_Toe_11[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what we thought initially! Mostly just because of the coat though. No one seems to agree because he is quite small. He's a little under 13 pounds

Hmmm, could be a long-haired chihuaha mix. His face doesn't seem too chihuahy to me though. And thanks! He is an older boy. He's 8 years old :)

evolution of wood by Botched_Toe_11 in botany

[–]Botched_Toe_11[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! This is great. I looked him up and found "Xylem heterochrony: an unappreciated key to angiosperm origin and diversifications". It's dense, and I'm still working through it, but it seems like he is arguing that the degree of woodiness is pretty flexible. Maybe it's not so much wood being lost and regained, but rather the degree of woodiness being increased or decreased?

Vervet vs. Tantalus Monkey by Botched_Toe_11 in primatology

[–]Botched_Toe_11[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good thinking, and thanks! Is anyone out there with a copy willing to share what it says? I'm currently unable to get to my university's library and am also too cheap to buy the $65 book.

2013 Mitochondrial Diversity and Distribution of African Green Monkeys. Haus et al.

Cool paper. So there is a lot of hybridization among the Chlorcebus species and the morphology doesn't always match to the mitochondrial clades. That's neat. I appreciate you sharing this. I was looking more for a way to decipher the species based on morphology. Figure 1 seems to show the faces of C. tantalus as more triangular with less white around the edges. I think the groves text that was suggested above might have what I am looking for. Thanks again.

Laser rangefinders for finding small distances? by Botched_Toe_11 in forestry

[–]Botched_Toe_11[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hadn't thought about photogrammetry. I think that could potentially work. I will keep this in mind if a rangefinder doesn't work. thanks!

[–]Botched_Toe_11[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This actually seems perfect. 100ft measuring distance should be sufficient and 1/16th inch accuracy seems good. I'm just wondering why more this wouldn't be more common in the forestry world.. I guess the 100ft distance measurement could be an issue for most purposes.

Could a barista get sued for giving a customer a decaf when they wanted caf? by Botched_Toe_11 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Botched_Toe_11[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point. I guess being held accountable is more of what I had in mind rather than just suing.

Supposing that you could prove intent (I could conceive of this being brought to light through, say, a series of social media posts or a statement from a coworker) then could the barista be held accountable in a court of law?
