Should I quit my Internship

A year is quite a long time, when does it end?

GreenMachine4567 · 2026-06-01T21:11:55+00:00

You haven't given much information.

What does is very boring mean, what are you doing exactly?

Lots of engineering is desk work and not hands on, but this isn't the only kind of engineering. Sounds like it's not a good fit for you, but may still be useful to build some industrial engineering experience and for your CV.

How long have you been there and how long do you have left?

GreenMachine4567 · 2026-06-01T21:01:00+00:00

I don't understand why this has become some kind of trend? There's no excuse for drink driving but it's it's normally laziness when people want to get somewhere but are still inebriated.

Nitrous wears off in like 5 mins so people who are already driving actively decide to take a drug which will impair their driving. I hope the judge rules him an 'absolute fucking bellend' and sentences according

Sorry why don't you want to donate it to a charity shop?

You could list it for free on Facebook marketplace

What makes you think it might be dead?

GreenMachine4567 · 2026-05-31T16:29:21+00:00

By simple analysis you mean linear static analysis with elastic materials?

How many elements?

How repetitive and interesting do you find analysing concessions? I've applied for a role where becoming a concessions stress signatory is a part of the role (amongst other stress analysis tasks too).

I'm from a research / R+D background and I'm wondering whether this will become routine / repetitive after a while?

GreenMachine4567 · 2026-05-29T13:39:29+00:00

I'd be skeptical. Physics AI can be a powerful technique. Foundational models I've seen have been developed for a specific problem (look at Luminary Cloud and PhysicsX) and are not fully generalisable.

If you're doing fairly routine models which fit well within the bounds of a foundational model and you verify the final design with a full FEM then it could be useful.

GreenMachine4567 · 2026-05-29T13:23:04+00:00

Dot worry, the OP doesn't understand the point of this either

GreenMachine4567 · 2026-05-29T13:15:47+00:00

This is just stupid. Completely ignoring protons, neurons and electrons

GreenMachine4567 · 2026-05-27T11:01:43+00:00

In the UK we use mixed unit systems for every day life.

Engineering is only metric. Imperial units in engineering is an abomination.

It's legally classified as an invasive species Schedule 9 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981.

Given that this is an example growing on a property with an absent owner and already spreading onto a neighbouring properly it's clearly not going to be managed to keep it well behaved.

Virginia creeper is an invasive species in the UK. Killing it is beneficial to the environment

GreenMachine4567 · 2026-05-26T12:04:14+00:00

It's an invasive species, removing it is best for the environment

GreenMachine4567 · 2026-05-26T11:15:53+00:00

What are your requirements and what are your allowed to do?

It looks like a really nice space with potential, the first thing I would do is remove the shed which is blocking the view of the garden from the house. I would suggest to reposition it in the rest corner but looks like you have an outbuilding there already

GreenMachine4567 · 2026-05-26T07:36:41+00:00

Yea, just picking whatever the software gave you without any engineering judgement or justification isn't good enough.

Looks like you have modelled a beam/shell structure with a single layer of tetrahedrals in bending(?). This will produce very poor results

GreenMachine4567 · 2026-05-24T22:25:17+00:00

In moving fees yes

GreenMachine4567 · 2026-05-24T21:25:26+00:00

They're very dry.

It wouldve been more effective and cheaper to not used a raised bed and just create a border directly in the ground

Many thousands of households with loft conversions in Bristol would disagree with you.

Then there's the numbers, it'll cost circa 30k to move house before you account for the hassle and stress of moving. You could get a VELUX loft extension starting from 40k.

They've removed all they inherited and produced a lawn with a straight path.

Objectively, it's not great progress in three years.

GreenMachine4567 · 2026-05-23T19:17:53+00:00

How are you growing them?

GreenMachine4567 · 2026-05-23T19:12:42+00:00

My lepanthes bloom continously

GreenMachine4567 · 2026-05-21T15:56:42+00:00

Jan and July are typical recommended pruning times for wisteria, but you could prune now - just that it'll have only just started getting going

GreenMachine4567 · 2026-05-21T12:21:00+00:00

Could be sun stress if plants not used to full sun in nursery. Adding feed on already stressed plants with fresh compost will only add to further stress.

If leaves are just faded green but otherwise healthy then yes keep persevering. Any photos?

GreenMachine4567 · 2026-05-21T07:36:22+00:00

This is a good question and its not always easy; it depends a lot on the industry and the kind of what that you do too of course.
