I may have pseudo-conservative/neo-libertarian leanings but I won't abide denying any citizen the right to prevent being assaulted whether it is by individuals or by state sanctioned restrictions against self defense. I will actively oppose such evil whether such opposition is legal or illegal.
That is a good example of how it should work. The very good companies will have a procedure of some sort. And of course the procedure to change a procedure is documented.:-P
I've submitted several dozen problem reports that have resulted in ECNs. My company only allows an engineer to issue ECNs with both production and marketings review.
I've had lean manufacturing training based on Toyota's system. It works well but the company leadership has to have the will to do it right and also be rational about it or it's just a facade.
That is a poor attempt at taking an out of context quote trying to twist the meaning of the original comment.If an employee does what they are not being paid to do on company time then they will most likely be disciplined or fired. That is not indicative of a reduction in creativity. It's indicative of insubordination. http://www.employersrightslegal.com/insubordination-definition.html
Unrestrained creativity in a bolt monkey is a detriment when doing assembly work. You can be creative with restraint which comes from having to work through the process of getting a procedure changed. Change may not happen for reasons unrelated to the creative suggestion. Not seeing that change instantly happen is not a reflection on the quality of the creative suggestion. Not having that change happen at all is not a reflection on the quality of the creative suggestion.
Company A) Has ten parts and is having a high failure rate among them. The company has ten assemblers using 10 different ways of assembling them. We've tested all the parts and they are fine. I come to find that 8 of the assemblers are the cause of 80 different problems. This took 8 months to figure out, cost my company several million dollars to correct.
Company B) Has a very rigid and controlled assembly system where every possible detail of assembly is documented. There is no deviation allowed. When a problem is found it can quickly be found and procedures changed. All changes have to go through engineering review and be documented with an engineering change notice and that is translated by the production engineer to procedures for the assemblers to follow.
Conclusion: You won't change it by being an insubordinate ass. You can however document your findings in a rational manner, find the proper person to report to and submit your findings. Your duty is then done. Get back to work and do exactly what you're paid to do. You get paid the same.
Slow inexorable change in how government treats it citizens with not a lot of pain or suffering on the part of the citizens just discomfort. It's been happening for a long time. It really does not matter who is in charge as it is a natural function of government to acquire power. We may be past the point where citizens can make any sort of effective reduction in that power. I do not know how long it will take but I will most likely be to old or already dead when it happens.
US citizens bought enough guns in three months to supply every soldier in China and India with a rifle and enough ammunition in one month to have them shoot that rifle around 450 times.
I want any call that comes in without caller ID to do that without ever fking ringing my phone. And get this, I'd pay the app writer a premium if their adaptive voice app keeps the shitheels on the phone for more than 5 minutes. Even better if this worked in concert with the service provider so I could still get calls.
Myself and some friends played a game in the 90s for a short time called "Fk the telemarketer", this was with land lines as cellphone time was too expensive. The goal was to keep them on the line for excessive amounts of time.
1 point per minute 10 points for every bogus credit card number given 20 for every bogus checking acount number given 100 points for a call back number 1000 points for death threats
The main idea was to record the call and then pick the best on the weekend listening to the recordings, playing D&D and drinking.
My 'feeble old man' was usually the winner and my best ran over 10 minutes of me 'trying to find another card' after having given them a few bogus cards.
I have to say that recording is brilliant in it's timing. I always thought an Elisa style program done with a text to speech program was the way to go but did not have the coding skills so lost interest.
The group I hung out with broke up and drifted apart. A few dunked phones and lost emails and a level of paranoia about 'real names' and I doubt I could find them again. I did keep in touch with two of them but the connection is tenuous at best and I've not heard from them in a few years.
Nokia has massive infrastructure worldwide. They are one of the few hiring uberLinux geeks just now. If you can do high availability clustering using Linux regardless of distribution you should submit a resume.
It's hard because of the variables. If there is no gross and immediate deformity then you end up with so many other things that can cause damage that the test is irrelevant.
I'd suspect you'd need clones. You'd need to Faraday cage some with ground, Faraday cage some without ground, and leave off the cage and wire the sensors as identically as possible. In this endeavor you'd also want to duplicate this multiple times with different researchers. You're trying to smooth out the differences. Then there is the cost. At some point a cry for a sealed environment and other expensive toys will come.
Very hard. It's why 'standardized' lab animals, plants, microorganisms are in demand.
Everything is balance. We ride the fragile zone of a magnetically and gravitationally protective mass where energy is flowing in and near it in prodigious quantities from an incandescent fusion inferno. It is a dangerous place where a steady state is disallowed and change is everything. To unbalance this is to court oblivion but to think it will last forever is folly. It is a seed pod and it will be burst from within or without. Nothing lasts forever... even change.
I modulated a 1 kilowatt microwave HERF gun with a microwave stirring device rotated using motor controlled by a PWM signal to vary the speed using an audio source playing White Metal at some plants and the all died. RADIO WAVES ARE EVIL!
The Arduino has 16k of flash memory and 2k of ram. It has exactly one hardware uart though other pins can act as software serial devices. It cannot act as a USB master like a PC without some help though it can act as a USB peripheral i.e. a usb to serial device. I may be able to hack apart that bluetooth dongle and get access to the bluetooth chip but I suspect the USB and bluetooth are integrated in one ASIC which won't allow that.
I will look at it. I'm reasonably competent at running a gdb trace and some other tools. What I personally need is to have a specific distribution such as Fedora 13 with ALL the debugging turned on and any optimizations that will kill debugging turned off. I'm willing to run a VM with as many as it takes, do the grunt work of regressions etc. But there's a limit to what I can do on my own. If it's turnkey and mostly automated or I have detailed instructions then I can do it. I am not a coder but there needs to be a tool that can take all the standardized outputs of lspci lsusb, etc, etc and format them in a consistent manner for upload.
I like knowing how old tech works as best I can find out. There are several telephony technologies that you probably won't see in use again that to me are incredibly brilliant inventions with not a solid state component to them. This type of technology gets lost and forgotten as the digital age, while cleaver, allows 'old stuff' to rot away. Even google has lost a large chunk of the usenet archive it acquired and put online.
I emailed Professor Csele and he is alive and well. I mentioned this posting but did not inquire about the coffee machine. I inquired about his reconstruction of a 1969 laser system and requested if he could scan or otherwise digitize the schematic. There's a schematic on a fragile piece of paper he has that I'd like to see others get some benefit from. I'd also like to seen the odd ball logic system of that laser as it's one I've not heard of before.
He has a keyword spam bypass, it's on the webpage.

No it's eat your own damn cum!
A government that can give you everything you want can take it all away. We're something like 12 trillion in debt. Paypal is trivial compared to that.

That would probably turn them into voracious man eating ambulatory plants that are a good source of petroleum substitute.
