The recruiter sent you an inelligible candidate. That’s just as much their problem as it is yours.

Get a job at a turkey processing plant.

The North Carolina legislature has a supermajority of far right republicans. The NC GOP is currently brazenly attempting to throw out legitimate ballots to steal a state supreme court seat, and the courts are going along with it. If they want to move for political concerns, I don’t think NC is enough of an improvement to justify the disruption involved.

Another way to view it is that college classes are filled with your future colleagues, and should be treated similar to a workplace. Students should generally dress similarly to how they expect to dress in their future workplaces. Whether that excludes a tank top is a matter of discretion, but clearly the proffesor did not find it to be professional. There’s no hard and fast rule, but I am surprised by the indignant tone in the comments here. Lectures are the domain of the professor and its not outlandish for them to set expectations about what they consider acceptable conduct for their lectures.

Not real.

And in this climate, I find this flavor of satire more exhausting than funny.

The other benefit I can think of is keeping the fissile materials always sub critical. You don’t have to worry about a meltdown if the reaction is not self-sustaining. It’s an odd marrying of technologies, but I think people are being too dismissive.

Although, I wonder if the true purpose of such a device would be high output breeding of fuel for weapons use.

Is the sales tax in your area 7.5% by any chance?

$16 x (100/107.5)= $14.88

I don’t see any gloves priced at 14.88 on their website at a quick check. I wonder if the store is trying to set a price that tallies to an even dollar amount and doesn’t know the connotation. I only recently learned about those numbers being associated so I would like to believe a benign explanation. Maybe you could ask to talk to a store manager next time you see it an make sure they know to avoid that price point.

Do the terms of their employment change when they get rehired?

They need a 1/4 duty cycle.

I only used it for desktop applications. That’s good to know.

Screen sharing in signal seems to work reasonably well.

What a terrible headline for them to pick. Entanglement was not Einstein’s idea. He called it spooky action at a distance because he thought the idea to be absurd.

Most of those are pretty cool, but the watch really let the gimmick compromise the function. Clock faces need to have high contrast for minimizing the time it takes to read the time.

Helion is a completely different technology vs tokamaks which is what you’re thinking of. They pulse the plasma to create brief bursts of pressure/heating/fusion. They do already have their seventh prototype machine operational so while we can’t independently verify their claims, it’s probably not all bluster.

I have mixed feelings about their approach. They plan to use a deuterium and helium-3 fuel blend. That has a couple major advantages. Most of the reactions will be aneutronic and the energy is released in the form of highly energetic alpha particles and protons. The lack of a high energy neutron is a huge advantage for safety and longevity of a reactor. High energy neutrons are hard to shield from and they cause most materials to get brittle and weaken. Netrons are not good for personnel to be around and they can leave some materials radiactive making reactor maintenance/disposal costly. The other advantage is that since all the energy is released as kinetic energy in charged particles, they don’t have to try to absorb high energy photons or neutrons into a water blanket to drive a steam turbine. Instead, the kinetic energy results in an electromagnetic pulse that can be harvested by the same magnets that constrict the plasma to begin with.

Sounds amazaing, right? So why doesn’t everyone use this approach? Helium is rare, but Helium-3 is especially rare, making up only about 20 parts per million of helium found in geologic deposits. So simply put, it is currently infeasible to use Helium-3 at scale. Helium-3 can be collected as a byproduct of breeding tritium for use in nuclear warheads. Enough helium-3 is produced for some demonstration reactors, but any real amount of demand will quickly outpace what the DOE produces.

Helion plans on breeding their own Helium-3 in Deuterium-Deuterium reactors they will operate. However D-D reactions are not aneutronic. So all the materials lifespan/shielding/ maintenance nightmares that come with operating a nuclear reactor will still apply. That means operators will have to buy very expensive fuel from Helion indefinitely. Helion doesn’t exactly deny this drawback, but I really dislike how much they gloss over it in their public communications.

Here’s a video tour of their test facilities that explains the basics of their approach. https://youtu.be/_bDXXWQxK38

I’m inclined to think they’ve demonstrated enough results that they are likely to be able to build a working unit quickly, however, that would still be a long way off from creating any sort of sustainable supply chain that would be a viable option for anyone beside datacenters.

Taking an oral steroid like prednisone can help prevent asthma attacks for milder allergies, but that might not be sufficient for a severe peanut allergy.

Epinephren is not a gentle drug. You do not want to have to use an epi pen if you can avoid it. It causes the heart to race and result in lots of side effects that would make a flight extremely uncomfortable. I think it’s also metabolized quickly enough that a single dose is not going to last a whole flight.

I’m not an expert though, I just have multiple family members with moderate to severe allergies.

Maybe make a white Russian?

That’s theoretically correct, however, when picking safety standards you should go by how most people would be expected to act, not by ideal scenarios. Is someone commuting to work going to pull over to change the media source or radio station? Probably not. So the controls should minimize how long the driver will look at the console and have their hand off the steering wheel. Media buttons on the steering wheel can seem superfluous, but it helps keep people less distracted.

Since the site listed doesn’t seem to have much for bedding, I’ll link where I got my linen sheets.

They are in Belarus.

1.5yrs later I don’t see any noticeable indication of thinning. They also custom fit a duvet cover for an insert without added cost and no hassle. I would buy from them again.

Could it be an insert for calibrating temperature probes?
