Nice to see more companies put the ever controversial "respect other players" and "kick toxic dipshits out of your gaming groups" advice in their books
Luis Villa: The term ‘bus factor’ has bothered me since we started Tidelift —because buses are (basically) never the cause of bad project health! So I wrote about it—and my slightly tongue-in-cheek suggested replacement, boss factor.
@paladin1 I once owned a `68 Mustang. When I took it to a mechanic for a tuneup, they pulled half the components out from under the hood, as they weren't attached to anything. I stopped presuming craftsmanship after that. :grimacing:
@paladin1 I've heard of metals becoming magnetized in a building. They used to run grounding down the sides of buildings sometime.
Or, check your place's blueprints, maybe under a black light or full moon: look for esoteric sigils or the like, to determine if your unit is the gate. 🤔
So my house was built in the '90s (northeast US). Today we found out that at every corner of each room there is something magnetic behind the walls. The magnetism is independent of height along the wall, and only in the corners. Anyone know about something metal being put along the studs or in the walls in turn-of-century homes?
#DSCOVR in safe mode at L1, a million miles away... a #spacecraft with a long history. Thanks Al Gore!
"DSCOVR has been designed for a Gyro-Less Safe Mode Attitude Control – relying only on sun sensor readings and information from the reaction wheels. The safehold system uses wheel tachometers to estimate spacecraft body rates about the sun vector in order to achieve a sufficient accuracy in sun-pointing during safe mode periods."
I'm really not excited for the future where cash is eliminated and you have to have an account on a dominant social media platform and a working surveillance device to buy anything. Also, in general, I find it very hard to care about how giant companies split the transaction fees.
