  • This article has more detailed information on the surveys conducted. It seems to be about a third of US adults.

    https://bigthink.com/the-present/was-trump-anointed-by-god/

    Interestingly, while skewed heavily towards Republicans, some Democrats also hold this position and a much smaller percentage overall believe he was selected because of his policies.

  • The entire article seems designed to confuse if not intentionally mislead the reader.

    "Unconditional" certainly would have fit in the title.

    Or, if not, it could have been added to the text below the title that instead juxtaposes Republican opposition as if to suggest Bernie has the same interests as Republicans.

    Or, it could have at least been in the first paragraph where they state Bernie's opposition again.

    But no, you have to read through nearly half the article to find that important qualifier in paragraph 5.

    It's hard to imagine this is anything other than an attempt to misrepresent his position.

  • You should get 33% more pay as the full work force productivity would be 4/3 of the original in your example.

    This difference might be clearer with an example where only half of the work force is required to match the original productivity. In this case, if the full work force continues to work, productivity is presumably doubled. That's not a 50% increase. It's 200% of the original or a 100% increase. So the trade-off should be between 50% fewer working hours and 100% more pay.

    Of course, instead you'll work the same hours for the same pay and some shareholders pocket that 100% difference.

  • Do you understand how many computer programs will crash when you try to introduce a "month" consisting of a single day for this New Year holiday, or alternatively a day which does not have a corresponding month?

    Is your Netflix subscription going to renew in December, and then next in January, or is there a troll of a month sitting in between where you're charged for a day?

    How many schedulers have rules like the second Tuesday of the month, or the last Friday of the month, and those days don't even exist!

    Is this special holiday even assigned a weekday? If it is, do we repeat the same weekday twice to keep the 28 day months on the same weekday schedule?

    Madness! /S

  • Download Bambu Studio and slice some multi material prints. The preview tells you how much filament will be purged. There are several settings and model characteristics that will affect the purged volume.

    Flushing volume: this directly controls the volume purged while swapping between any two filaments. Darker to lighter colors will need a higher flushing volume. You'll also need a higher flushing volume when changing materials.

    Purge to infill: this reduces the purged volume by accounting for the volume that can be printed as infill before reaching perimeters. It's not very effective for smaller models because there is just less infill area.

    Printing multiple copies: this reduces the ratio of waste to printed parts, since for each layer you'll need the same number of filament swaps.

    Part orientation: often the part orientation will have a dramatic effect on the number of filament swaps. Imagine a blue cube with a red face. This can be optimized to one color swap if the red face is horizontal instead of vertical.

    Print sequentially: For multiple parts on the plate, grouping them by color similarity and printing groups sequentially can reduce the number of swaps. Imagine two blue parts and two red parts on the same plate. This can be optimized to one color swap for the entire print instead of one swap per layer.

    In my experience, the waste for average complexity multicolor prints is similar in scale to supports, and is easily offset if you're upgrading from a less reliable printer. Failed prints are filament waste too.
