Darker toned people are harder to detect because they reflect less light. The tiny cheap sensors on cameras do not have enough aperture for lower light detections. It's not training that's the problem it's hardware.

You need gutters and roof guards. The gutters are the only thing that will stop water from splashing on to the side of your house which will cause rotting of any wood. Siding is not designed to protect from water going up. Roof guards will stop avalanches of snow on the roof so your gutters will be safe.

I doubt your profit margin per ticket includes over head costs. Is sounds like it's mostly direct costs that are included. If your shop truly had a 70% profit margin the owner would be loaded, for every 100k you charge customers they would be taking home 70k in profit.

Not sure if you are being sarcastic and think 8% is huge or you are being sincere and think 8% is poor. 8% is average compared to other industries.

I see you got as far as supply and demand in your economics course before you zoned out. Competition specifically 3 competitors has been shown to apply sufficient pressure to stop price gouging. Airlines profit margins are at 8% which indicates sufficient completion.

Facism relies on authoritarian control of markets and property, it has much more in common with communism.

We had a millennial tech writer working for us. She had no understanding of git, filesystems, command line usage. That was after a 4 hour short course on git. She got upset when she didn't know where a file was and I told her to search for it. Apparently that was too vague so I had to show her how to search for a file in a folder. Other gems from her "I tried to cd into the devel branch but it did not work".

Non programmer millennials are terrible with computers, they have no understanding of how computers work.

I have 4 kids, vans or suvs are my only option. I got my explorer new for 24k. It was the cheapest vehicle with 3 rows and room for luggage in the back. I miss driving a car, but for the next decade I need a kid hauler.

Look at how well Japonese Americans did after we segregated them in internment camps.

You can back out R values based on insulation thickness, that table may be old... It didn't have a date on it.

The values you provided equate to freedom R values of R40.5, R28, and R22.5 for the roof, walls, and floor. Those are inline or behind the US minimum requirements R60, R30, R20.

I was using freedom units for both. The R values were determined based on insulation thickness. Because you Europeans use energy consumption for your requirements it's impossible to compare with US requirements. I did find this table giving recommendations for insulation.

The insulation requirements in the US are higher than many European areas with similar climates. Germany for instance would fall in region 4 and 5 of the US climate wise. R-30 is required for walls, R60 for ceilings, and R20 for floors for homes in the US. Germany recommends 6cm of wall insulation ~R8, 14cm for ceiling _{R19, and 6cm for the floor R8.___}~

Conservatives keep talking about how raising wages will increase prices but they have no answer about why prices are going up anyway even without raising wages.

Wages are only one of the drivers of cost.

The brine solution will contain concentrated amounts of elements, like lithium. That concentrated solution may be economicly viable to process.

I would be wary of using vinegar. The hard water deposits had sealed the electronics enclosure after the gasket started leaking in my dishwasher, after I ran a cycle with vinegar it shorted out.
