You can’t put 80,000lbs of sprinkler in a van. You can’t tow 80,000lbs of sprinkler with a van.

A victory that will solidify China and Russia and embolden them against Taiwan, moving us straight into WW3. A little deterrence could go a long way right now.

You had me until your last sentence.

Thanks Obama and the EPA. Bring back baby pickups!

I can’t think of a switch you won’t ever need. I think the “sce to aux” story is a good example of when you need it you need it.

Florida. Where trucks will drive into the median to hit a cyclist.

I think they are saying the surface should be raised so the bike lane is level and the street passes over a speed table. This makes it evident that the street is crossing the bike lane, rather than the bike lane crossing the street. We are talking inches, not tens of feet.

The Woodlands Development north of Houston did this very well in the first phase of development. Bike paths wound through the woods on the backside of property while streets wound through the front. This gave more street facing property while bike travel was typically shorter distances. It was really amazing. It was abandoned for more square property lines and conventional development in later phases.

The motor could turn with the wheel. You could have a wheel-motor without the excessive unsprung weight of the motor components.

It still has corners that need to have a moving seal. This is a huge issue.

It’s pretty smart. It is like a wheel-motor but without all the unsprung weight.

They aren’t. Light ircraft now use touchscreens that you are supposed to use while bouncing around. They had a knob for a while but then it seemed touchscreens took over. With the knob you still had to look, it at least you didn’t have to aim at a bouncing spot on the screen.

Also make them illegal in aircraft! And spacecraft! Seriously stupid.

I like location based games, like Niantic has done, but with much less backstory.

That is not exactly true. My dad was a geology professor. About half his students ended up in oil and gas. The other half were employed as city planners, teachers, consulting geologists, and in , civil engineering firms, environmental services firms, mining and others.

I think you are correct. My first bad boss was a contractor for Comcast. Layers and layers of metrics and KPIs. My best CEO was a “my door is always open, come in and talk” guy.

Bosses have gotten really bad for some reason. A manager used to mentor people and deal with communicating issues upwards. Now it seems to be entirely abusive supervision.

I did 3 on 4 off. The 3rd 12hr shift was rough, but otherwise it was pretty great.

Sorry. I wish you would have explained it to me.
