What cable and interface are you using?

What's a 'boost' and is it different from an upvote?

I lived in one of 'those homes' once... All 5 bedrooms and the garage which I stayed in was at least 1000 a month. And it was bare minimum amenities. One refrigerator shared with everyone, stove top was broken the entire time, one restroom and shower, and half of the folks had no idea how to clean dishes.

If I had to take an educated guess, it is the absurdly immense pressure for academic and career success. Basically through one's entire childhood and early-adult life. A child's day would be something like public school from morning to afternoon and private tutoring after that until night time. Rince and repeat with an ever growing pressure for an acceptance into a highly rated university.

And on top of that, incredible wealth inequality.

So from childhood until death it all seems like constant pressure to become excellent. Seems like life would be hopeless if one struggles with the academics and fails to secure a career.

A total of 39,453 people killed themselves from 2020 to 2022, according to data from the health ministry and the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency submitted to Rep. Baek Jong-hean of the ruling People Power Party.

Apparently the party is South Korean so I presume the stats are just for South Korea.

The automakers’ last known wage offers were around 20% over the life of a four-year contract, a little more than half of what the union has demanded. Other contract improvements, such as cost of living increases, restoration of defined-benefit pensions for newly hired workers and an end to wage tiers within the union are also on the table.

What happened to the 32 hour work day? Disappointment in AP for not mentioning this.

Gig workers gimped themselves voting to remain as contractors in prop 22. And now there's that stupid 80%(?) majority rule to make amendments.

Engineers wants features held to less than 10 microns. Big parts on 'easy' materials.

Their idea of making parts is tossing it into any and all CNC machinery and automatically get good parts. That is rarely ever the case with tight tolerance parts.

Key proposals from the union have included 40% hourly pay increases, a reduced 32-hour work week, a shift back to traditional pensions, the elimination of compensation tiers and a restoration of cost-of-living adjustments (COLA), among other items on the table including enhanced retiree benefits and enhanced vacation and family leave benefits.

I hope they get it all. 32 hour work day and return to traditional pensions would be huge.

Just curious.. what does Starrett have that Tesla will need?

Starrett isn't known for quality precision metrology.

Bilateral tolerancing is a Machinist's first introduction to tolerancing so it's no surprise to run that as default. And I suppose GD&T is not heavily used where you are.

If you're given a parallelism tolerance of 10 micron are you assuming that to be +-10 micron? True position? Angularity of 5 thou? Etc... The only feature control that could be interpreted as bilateral by default is profile and it's still communicated by its total tolerance.

Simple +- tolerancing isn't the industry standard anymore. And if Tesla prints are anything like spaceX ones... It's basically all GD&T and minimal title block tolerances.

The total tolerance is .0004". In equally disposed bilateral tolerancing it will be +-.0002".

I see a two post height gauge as well.
