My father, who worked as a market research analyst, said that the trick to the job was "point out the obvious before anyone else does". Web sites and web content are trending towards being enshittified until it just…
Python has a much more mature ecosystem than Rust, especially for AI/ML stuff. I ran into a rust crate that purported to do a certain ML algorithm but did not do it correctly. I managed to write a replacement with…
Using either Calibri or Times New Roman makes it look like you did not put any thought into your brand and chose the default in Microsoft Word. The State department probably has certain constraints (i.e. they likely…
I don't think I was specific enough on what kind of structured data. The idea is that it extracts information from the text/HTML content of emails (e.g. a flight itinerary from an airline booking email or an ingredient…
I discovered I liked business planning, strategy, and marketing pretty early in my technical career. I also discovered that one of the thing business people bring to a company are connections, especially if they have…
The quality of store management seems to affect a lot when it comes to Walmart. I have been to some Walmart stores where I have never seen any unfolded clothing. I have been to some Walmart stores where I have never…
Thank you for this. I have been on r/manufacturing and if someone asks for a solution like this I am ready with a link :) I will check out the forum.
Thank you. My day job is as an engineer in manufacturing so I felt like I had a unique opportunity to "build what I know" and have seen people use and enjoy. It's a worthwhile project to build yourself. If nothing else…
I wrote a small business preventive maintenance and calibration tracker (https://pmcal.net) as a side project. A few manufacturing companies that I have a close relationship with are using it and love it, but I have…
Walmart having a very large fleet of corporate private jets likely made the decision and trip easier for him.
I played with OpenHands for a few days (using gpt-4o since I already had an OpenAI account). I found it to be decent at writing new code, but then it had a hard time making changes when there was a lot of repetitive…
I heard a story of a fishing boat in the eastern US that was "fighting a fish" for miles but could never get any traction. When another fisherman looked at their chart, he noted that they were dragged miles in a…
Our area measurement application did not require that tight a tolerance (we were estimating yield on broken material). If I needed that tight a tolerance, I could have gotten proof coins from the mint, or potentially…
I built a computer vision device that used the top-down area of a penny as a calibration standard. Coins are useful, easy-to-get items that have relatively tight manufacturing tolerances.
Generally in order to ticket an itinerary, there needs to be at least one flight marketed (e.g. with the airline's flight number) by the "plating carrier" whose ticket stock the flights are issued on. I can't buy an…
I'm not as familiar with foil resistors, but if you apply the same rules as thin film I would expect that you could trim this with a normal meter (the ± is 0.1 ohms) and the major cost driver is laser trim time and the…
It depends on the component and the company/process. Laser trim time for thin film is a significant cost-driver, so if possible you want to aim for a specific value and reject or bin-sort the rest out. My company only…
Thin-film resistor design engineer here! It's dependent on value and geometry -- if you order a 0.5 ohm resistor the meters on our trimming lasers only go down to 20 mΩ and you're getting a 5% part at best.
Recipes aren't copyrightable, so websites add some filler that is copyrightable to the start.

I believe the economics of VPN companies is that they have a quite inexpensive, commodity product which has a lot of churn. The ads get people to sign up for a month or two at any price, which pays for the cost of the…
This happened to my grandmother during the end of her life. Most people don't realize that many blind people retain some sort of vision or light perception. - If you write her letters or need to write anything on paper…
What always bothered me about "B corps" was that the name suggests something analogous to C corp or S corp, which in most states is not actually the case. I think my home state of Massachusetts does it well and labels…
The US government had its own issues faking Soviet passports — Soviet staples were made of regular steel but US staples were made of stainless steel, so a genuine Soviet passport would have rust stains in it while a…
