I do drugs as well, but I don't typically drink alcohol. Maybe I am not qualified to speak on this, but in the US most of the cheap vodkas have been coming in plastic bottles for around 15 years now at least.
That's odd, I'm in Pennsylvania and have had multiple fraudulent purchases with my accounts over the years. Every single time, the bank put the money back in my account within days and I never heard anything more about it.
Thanks for sharing.. I love hearing how people deal with overcoming challenges in building science. There are so many unique situations, but they all simplify down to a handful of variables.
Drug metabolites are measured repeatedly and precisely, as is a forensic bite analysis . Not sure how you can claim those are unreliable when they are used daily. GC/MS is a good start for drug testing..
You have no clue what you're talking about. You are correct in that low cost PLC hardware can replace relay and pneumatic controls, but HVAC systems aren't just basic relays and pneumatics. They are microcomputers that communicate with actual protocols. They is no hot cutover or simple handover like you say.
Source: I literally just lead a project to upgrade the PLC controls on a few air handler units and build entire server and network infrastructure. We had to run Ethernet to each of these from the network closets because they previously had went to a Windows XP box in the maintenance guys office. There were many challenges, one being getting the configuration off a couple of the old PLCs to make the new ones even talk to them.
That's exactly it.. i work at hospital system and just had to deal with this myself. The HVAC guys were in to upgrade the controllers for the air handling systems. They are basically PLCs that connect to a server like anything else. The issue is interfacing with the system. These pre 2000s air handler units generally communicate with the controller over serial, and there are specific configurations to make it work. We almost had a very costly issue of needing to upgrade the controls in the one system but they ended up getting it going.
No, it’s because they don’t pay for another HL7 interface. I am network admin for hospitals and see it daily. We use Meditech anyways, not even close to everyone uses Epic.
Sounds like you're unaware of what is involved in repainting. You don't think they just climb up and spray over the bird crap and other contaminates? 80% of the work is in prep and the technology in coatings 140 years ago wasn't where it's at today.
Not to sound like an ass, and I know it is early yet here on the East coast of the US, but damn this is the most ignorant thing I have read on the internet all day! Not sure what hole you need to have your head up to not realize the impacts of the transistor that don't involve the microprocessor.
I used to work at a plant like this, we were acquired by Siemens. The machining process itself is less critical than the balancing and even the welding of these components, which is highly engineered and controlled.
I would argue it is more to do with the amount of sugars and the frequency these sugars are in contact with the teeth than anything. Sipping HFCS the entire day seems to be much more common these days..
I guess I can see that perspective if I imagine myself too ignorant to understand the author’s point and what radiation actually is. Try to consider that cities emit all sorts of radiation, from low frequency radio waves, to UHF/VHF, cellular frequencies, visible light, and like every other object above absolute zero, infrared radiation.. and while not specifically the point, many of those could affect astronomers. So that’s probably why you and OP run against the grain of common logic here..
