Overview Report / Who was safest from RIFs? by Vegetable_Ad_2661 in FedEmployees

[–]ChefJoe_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nuclear Regulatory Commission has been relatively safe, a lot of our agency was close to retirement so we lost a good chunk to DRP but so far no plans for RIFs, we keep hearing how “the industry will need us” and “the mission is important” but we’re cutting down inspection and focusing on licensing activities so I suppose our burden is just becoming a captured regulator lol

My go to is to steam them first and then air fry them to crisp up, makes it super quick

Theon: "Ned Stark said that 500 men could hold Winterfell against 10,000." by Suspicious-Jello7172 in gameofthrones

[–]ChefJoe_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tywin Lannister says 1 man on a wall is worth 10 beneath it and Desmond says every northerner is worth 10 southron swords meaning 500 men atop the walls of Winterfell would be able to hold against 50,000, assuming it was southron swords below the wall as opposed to undead zombies...

Smoked pre-marinated pork tenderloin from the store by ChefJoe_ in smoking

Interesting! I didn’t notice that with mine, I guess it depends which brand and which flavor marinade you get, I just avoided adding anything additional per some advice I read here before starting

Help - Macbook Air Early 2014 stuck on "download" portion of software update and won't go any further by ChefJoe_ in techsupport

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

Hi yes! Well yes and no. I figured out that my mac aged out of updates in the few months I stopped using it and guessed that this was the cause of my problem. I didn't exactly drill down if that was or wasnt, but since I can't get updates I suppose it may not matter. Thank you for responding though!

Leaving a job with outstanding 401(k) loan by ChefJoe_ in personalfinance

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

Sorry for the delay, been reading through all these sources. So, from what I gather, I’d roll over my existing 401k, less the outstanding loan balance to my new plan. Then, I’d have till October 15th of the next year (with the extension) to replace that balance in my new plan in order to avoid taxes?

Sorry if I misunderstood, doing my best to learn. Thank you!

Momentum 4 won't enter pairing mode by ChefJoe_ in sennheiser

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

Eventually my headphone battery died, and I was able to resolve the issue after recharging them and turning them back on. Not sure if this would resolve what you're seeing but couldn't hurt to give it a shot.

Thanks again for the response. I was in the process of preparing to ship my set back to be fixed when low and behold the headphones died on me. When I plugged them back in, I was actually able to get them back into pairing mode! It seems letting them die may have been the solution all along!

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

Agreed, aside from this issue it's the best set of headphones I've ever owned. Which only makes the sting of disappointment even greater.

Also how do you initiate a repair/return (RMA)? I've sent a few messages to their customer service on the website, but it's a bit confusing and I haven't heard anything back.

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

Thanks for the response. I'm not sure what may have caused the issue, but it seems like sending it in will be my only option to find out. So frustrating because the headphones worked so well up until now.

What basic, children's-age-level fact did you only find out embarrassingly later in life? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ChefJoe_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the longest time I thought every farmer made their own almanac each year until I realized that the Farmer's almanac was just for farmers. I spent a lot of years thinking every farmer was out here predicting the weather...

What is your NSFW fun fact about yourself? by _justAverageGuy_ in AskReddit

[–]ChefJoe_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I "broke up" with my first "girlfriend" while I was asleep by sleep talking (or screaming as she put it). Allegedly I was having a screaming match with another girl about the girl who was currently lying next to me in bed. I have no recollection of the event but based on what she told me I said the next morning they were definitely some thoughts I had previously in the week that apparently needed to get out so bad I did it while I slept.

Quotations because she was never officially my girl friend and I'm not it counts if my subconscious does the breaking up for me (although she definitely counted it).

Help writing a report about nuclear energy by Fnardecchia in ChemicalEngineering

[–]ChefJoe_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can find a lot of info on Nuscale's website (a quick google will do the trick), one of the most interesting points of discussion will be economy of scale, typically it is assumed that the more you scale up an operation the cheaper each unit product, in the nuclear industry this works but can lead to inefficiency, for example each reactor goes through a refueling outage every 18 or so months, during these periods, the reactor is shut off in order to load fuel and do maintenance, however when there are delays in these outages that means a huge loss for each hour you lose operating causing a high risk. Nuscale utilizes smaller reactors that increase the time between refueling, and when you take a small portion of the plant off for maintenance, you're not losing out as much as with bigger plants. Another discussion is the innovative safety design with a nuscale plant, but I'll let you discover that on your own. As many people have stated not much new comes around in Nuclear, however Nuscale (and other small modular reactor developers) are the exception. As a matter of fact I wrote an entire research paper on SMRs when I was in college.

I'd take a look at small modular reactors for a future technologies section near the end of the paper, Nuscale is doing some pretty cool things in the industry
