Idk about the whole talk of having an excuse to shareholders, I don’t think shareholders look into hey these offices are sitting unused I demand an explanation I think they care how much profit the company making and what are future predictions of profit.

Sorry I thought it was 60 cause that was the newest one but looked at mine it’s the haklo station 70w. Pretty sure it’s 70w but could be just 70w at startup.

6.4 billion to build 4k units and services. I don’t know how much is allocated to building and how much is allocated to services but even if it’s 50/50(I think an insanely high ratio) that means the units cost 800k to build. Who is getting rich off this. I remember seeing one homeless project that was like a one room 400sf shack basically cost over 1 million each to build. The corruption when it comes to building contracts is insane.

My opinion for what it’s worth is generally no one is going to not play hollow knight because they are playing the ripoff. You can’t own a style or game genre if someone has a similar look and feel there’s not much you can do about it than have a better game.

I have a 60w iron and 16awg is always the size that’s just too big for me and always a pain to solder.

Then how did all these people eat tide pods. Once tiktok realized they were promoting check fraud they stopped it but you can’t react fast enough for some of these things

That’s like saying YouTube or Facebook I forget which one, got people to eat tide pods. Information spreads on all platforms whether good or bad.

I’ve never used one but I just looked up the specs and it looks like it maxs out at 75 watts. Is that enough to keep it hot with like 16 gauge wires?

Just curious what do you think a reasonable price would be for this product?

Two things that are just so indictive of the Republican party are 1) the aid said trump hasnt come up with a good nickname for Harris and that’s really hurting him, like the future of democracy comes down to being able to call someone a funny name. It’s so childish and so accurate to conservative voters. 2) the blatant admitting that him getting elected is the only way he can get out of his legal troubles, admitting that he’s guilty and only if he gets special treatment by being president will he be able to avoid consequences.

But in practice what happens is people/companies make donations directly to a candidate then all of their priorities get fulfilled by the candidate even though the people that voted for the candidate don’t support the issue.

I’ve heard of a male birth control every couple years and still nothing on the market. Usually it’s because there are slight side effects and that’s considered to much of a risk meanwhile female birth control can cause blood clots and whatnot. I’m too jaded to believe this will ever come to fruition.

So it looks like for senior design classes the students don’t have to be associated with projects where they lose their IP rights. But sponsors have the right to say a project will give all IP to the sponsor. I imagine how this works in practice is all external companies will require they retain IP then the professor creates additional projects where ip can be retained but these are usually canned projects solving some trivial problem that won’t really allow the students to go anywhere interesting with the project. I am not saying that’s the case but I remember at my undergrad and at the UC school that was the case.

There are graduate students unions or research assistant unions. Undergraduates (not ones working in a lab) don’t work for the university they are customers. It would be like members of a gym unionizing. I guess it could happen maybe.

I worked at a UC and companies retained all IP across all UCs and my undergrad school from the east coast was the same way. I’ve never heard of a university that let students keep their IP. I would imagine it would be hard to attract outside companies since the companies pay to be a part of the program. Can you point to a university program that allows students to retain their IP for senior design projects? I know if a student is doing a project through the school for a different class like a lab and they invent something or are volunteering the university has no claim to it but senior design is different.

The sad thing is the students who actually did the work will probably see no financial gain from this. Students pay to take a class and then a company pays the university for access to the students and the students ideas and work is used by a company with no financial benefit to the students. Everyone makes out except the students.

I’m furious about the genocide but I’m furious with our president not listening to 70% of Democrats and still supporting Israel.

That would be awesome, any idea where you heard that, I’ve read other sodium based technologies have ~65%

I didn’t see anything about round trip efficiency. I’ve heard that’s a big downside so it might make energy storage a hard sell.

Fair point
