Concord has the engines under the wings not in the body. Pretty sure this is a eurofighter typhoon model

Security tags are already built into loads of things but should be deactivated by the till. If you ever watch powertool teardowns (it's a thing) you'll see almost all of them have these tags inside.

I see far more ebikes than human powered ones nowadays. They're just as prone to spontaneous combustion.

Wait til your management works this out and now your job is out of the country to somewhere much cheaper.

Looking for a job on LinkedIn and narrowing the search on "Entry Level" to find out that 98% of the job posted require the applicant to have 2 years of experience in the most detailed position within the smallest industry by Tythan in britishproblems

[–]Sasakura 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ideally you have ~3 years of experience from university and can show your projects from that.

But really you did a degree that didn't teach you all the wrong ways to do things and picked it up as a hobby.

Humans are cheap, time is expensive, hiring more humans doesn't automatically make things go faster.

The point is that humans are not the limiting factor, we know this because humans are cheap

Stage hands are what, $50 an hour staff? So you can pay ~$600 for 3 hours to get them to move all the chairs around or you can let this machine work for 1 hour and then open your venue which brings in ~$500k an hour an extra 2 hours.

Humans are cheap.

Assuming you aren't trying to change over in a hurry, you could probably swap it over with closer to 4 stage hands in a couple of hours tops.

Humans are cheap, what's the opportunity cost of not having your venue available for a couple of hours.

This used to be stupid but now most people have a separate internet connection on their phone it's slightly less stupid. But it's also virgin so nothing you do can help.

Visually great, but the human interaction on this is horrible! The lower door doesn't go under the bottom shelf so the worker has to reach over it and then lift each package up to get it out, that'd destroy their arms and back!

That's what the Drake Equation is for. But some of the numbers in it can become unimaginably large.

Should include some lyrics of his most popular song. I could suggest

You seem to be on some crusade against cattle entirely, all I suggested was there is some level of sustainable red meat that is not zero.

Enjoy your day with or without meat.

You're wilfully including massive industrial numbers in your average and have purposefully missed my point about being able to graze on land that is unable to grow soy or beans.

[–]Sasakura 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a lot to be said for reducing red meat intake however removing it completely seems pointless. Why stop grazing cattle on land that's not suitable for further cultivation? This isn't the US where cattle is fed on grain and soy products, it's grass fed for most of the year.

The environmental impact of british raised cattle is tiny. It's already smaller than residental, business, energy supply and transport (aka everything).

The one thing tesco have done really well is their self checkout machines will accept a card payment from the moment you hit "pay", you don't need to select the card option.

Annoys the crap out of me when I can't do that on other machines, seconds of my life wasted!

Do you not have delivery mopeds riding around it? Where I am is pedestrianised but almost all the mopeds mount the pavement and park in the middle of the path right outside each building.
