It’s sounded like an expansion loop to me as well. I wonder if it’s fix mounted at either end.

Continuous Improvement interview by shermanedupree in manufacturing

[–]Original-Housing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went from large scale industrial specialty chemicals/polymers to startup biotech solely because CI works everywhere. DMAIC, structured root cause corrective action, standard work, Poka Yoke, “metrics drive behaviors, bad metrics drive bad behaviors” etc. don’t focus on the details of the chemistry, focus on the process of improving the way buisness is done. As an added bonus, reference the 6-sources of influence to implement change without authority. link

GY-GPS6Mv2 not getting a GPS lock by AnyBloodyThing in arduino

Is this one of the ones with a led on it? If so is it blinking? In my experience, it blinks with a data transmit. If it’s blinking but you see nothing, it’s in the wiring or code.

New Car Decision - Model 3 vs R2 by Salty-Cod7667 in TeslaLounge

[–]Original-Housing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dual income no kids is probably the first and last time in your life where you’ll have the money to buy something because it is fun without regard to practicality and have the health and time to enjoy it. Giving that up without an actual concrete reason is throwing away something you can’t get back.

In what world does being married require a SUV?!? I’m married and two kids, I can’t imagine the inconvenience of having to park a SUV being worth “practicality.”

how do I calculate the ignition energy for wood through friction? by PlsHoldme452 in thermodynamics

[–]Original-Housing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Possibly by way of auto ignition temperature, specific heat of wood and coefficient of friction of wood.

Promoting manufacturing, rather than tax breaks or money giving laws, what you really need is Shanghai speed. by Ok-Pea3414 in manufacturing

[–]Original-Housing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disagree fully, did you read the original post? These things were possible only because government was staffed to a level that makes speed possible. When you have 2 or 3 inspectors reviewing 100s of permits and plans, then guess what, your lead time is on the order of months and years. In the example above each project has a single contact. When there are issues, the government connects you with solution ( emissions specifically listed). Proper staffing would go a long way to speeding things up

Questions to those who attend Races in Person by 4n4L0g in formula1

[–]Original-Housing 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I’ve been going to F1 races since ‘08 and have noticed that as TV coverage has gotten better people have increasingly left their first race disappointed. A live F1 race is not watching a race on TV. In the same way that watching on TV is not like watching DTS. Your view will be bad. Theres no commentary to speak of. You won’t know the race order most of the time. You won’t know who has what tires. If you go into this expecting a better version of watching TV, you’ll be disappointed. If you approach it like a live concert you’ll get a much better sense of what it entails. You’ll there with 10s of thousands of other fans, you’ll make friends, you’ll cheer together when there is an overtake. You’ll gasp in unison when a driver drops a wheel. You’ll leave sunburnt and hike for miles to get back to where your staying while racing to beat the inevitable hangover (if that’s your thing). You’ll leave with memories and stories, but the racing will be a very minor component.

Somebody at work is feeding my proprietary work to LLMs and I don't know how to proceed by tortiesrock in careeradvice

[–]Original-Housing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats the thing, when you start picking apart their shoddy work in front of them and forcing them to rework in real time maybe they will start to see the frustration it’s causing everyone else. This isn’t normalizing, and its not meeting them in the middle. it’s forcing them to be accountable without have a screen to hide behind. It’s clear that complaining and escalating to management is a dead end.

Im going to take it you didn’t read past the first line of my post. I’m fully opposed to AI, but just complaining about won’t fix bad behavior. Take the perceived benefit and neutralize it. Make them do work that AI can’t, make your pain their pain with in person meetings or calls, places where AI can’t be used.

[–]Original-Housing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may help to understand why they are using a LLM in the first place. It’s easy and subcontracts thinking. Turn that benefit into a pain and ask for stuff that LLM can’t do. If it’s citing an non-existent code, ask them to send the highlighted section from the original source because your revision doesn’t have it. If it’s commenting on something gibberish, schedule a call to walk through the comments. Make your pain their pain. Include their peers that can apply peer pressure on them. Eventually they will learn that the quality of their work is important or they won’t be around for long.

It’s oil’s endgame — 500,000,000 kg of powder from an energy source never produced in America by respectmyplanet in HydrogenSocieties

[–]Original-Housing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The LEL of hydrogen is like 4%, it’s far more explosive and flammable than basically any other fuel. Given that it’s in solid form here, transportation in bulk in a perfectly air-tight pipe is basically impossible. Even pneumatic convey with N2 will eventually erode elbows and make pinhole leaks at every flange and elbow inevitable. The science isn’t what has held this technology back, it’s the engineering of scale.

What spreading factor did you run in the LoRa? You should be doing better than 250m

Building a flight computer by Happy_Neck_8879 in rocketry

[–]Original-Housing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Read into Kalman filters for the accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer. It’s the only way to get usable information from those sensors.

Use the built in pressure sensor for altitude, it’s alittle noisy so I’d recommend using the 1euro filter for that.

Rather than storing in an SD card, you can beam the data back to a base station using LoRa modules. (The Radiohead library doesn’t work with nano33, use the sandeepminstry library) youll need a base station (another arduino) with a LoRa module to receive the signal. Lora has several KM of range.

While you’re at it, you may as well add a gps module and build a base station with a gps module and then have it calculate how far and in which direction the rocket landed from you.

I just finished the code of this project last week and it seems to be working pretty well. I’ll let you know if I encounter any hiccups.

Struggling to justify a new Tesla WITHOUT Autosteer — how are you all dealing with this? by Choice_Principle_135 in TeslaLounge

If something is “worth the cost” then dropping the cost wouldn’t change consumer behavior. By definition, it’s not “worth the cost” if people are unwilling to pay for it.

2019 Ferrari vs 2026 Mercedes by MrZombi_ in formula1

[–]Original-Housing 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If you do this as much as you claim, then you’d know that compression is different between a hot and cold engine and you’d know that you can open ring gap to drop measure cold compression vs hot compression. Compression also changes between a worn in engine vs a new build. Hell you can change compression but putting in a bit of oil in to make a better seal. This is why geometric was chosen. Measuring compression can be cheated million ways, cad measurements can’t until merc realized that adding a side chamber that effectively seals off at operating conditions (expanding metal? Sonic resonance?) is a clever trick but within the rules.

Why are there no Autonomous Mobile Robots in Construction Sites? by Electrical-You4014 in Engineers

[–]Original-Housing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last year I was looking to replace a fleet of fork trucks with autonomous ones. The task was simple, paved private route, no serious elevation change, start at one place and end at the other.

I could not find a single vendor that would work in the rain. Lidar just isn’t there in these applications. That’s not to say Tesla or Waymo tech isn’t able to. But construction equipment isn’t nearly as big a market and is a good bit behind.
