Yeah really. I bet some posters here would be surprised that the FDA hasn't visited some manufacturers in 3+ years and in some cases has never even seen a facility. They just accept FDA registrations that anyone can make and never do inspections. I'm sure on paper it sounds like your food or vitamins or pharmaceuticals are being strictly regulated but they aren't. VictorianQueerLit fucked around with this message at 09:13 on Jun 17, 2018 |

Mistle posted:Brake fluid leaking, looks like. Add the hoses melting and you have enough to call the fire department over. I really doubt it. Brake fluid ignites at 650°C. I seriously don't know where you'd find temperatures that high in a car that has no exhaust. Also, every single drop of brake fluid in a large modern car equals about 800-1200mL. Doesn't look as bad in the video. It's not flowing, it's not a thick layer and it's not a downhill slope, all of which I initially assumed. https://i.imgur.com/npB8CTm.mp4

Exactly. And that's if what they're doing isn't technically legal because the minimum wage is stupid low. I'm in Minnesota and our minimum wage is $7.87/hr. There hasn't been much push to change it because low unemployment means that hourly rate for most jobs is well above minimum, but there's a whole seedy underbelly of salaried jobs that look decent on paper but end up being minimum wage jobs because of hellish hours, but are technically legal because of our low minimum wage.

There's getting hit by a train, and then there's getting hit by a train.quote:According to West Japan Rail, no abnormality other than exterior damage was apparent at Kokura Station, which is why the driver continued to the mainland. Following the grim discovery, however, officials believe that the train came into contact with a person who entered the tracks inside a tunnel between Hakata and Kokura stations in Fukuoka Prefecture. Fukuoka Prefectural Police later confirmed that multiple human body parts were found near the Ishisaka tunnel in the prefecture’s Yahata Nishi Ward.

Phanatic posted:That's absolutely false. A few years ago I hit a coyote at highway speed. There was a car behind me and a car which I was passing in the lane to my right. a coyote jumped over the jersey barrier right into my path. Taking no action and plowing straight into it was absolutely, 100% the correct call. Well, given the time involved it was also the only thing possible, but even if my reaction time was measured in microseconds rather than tenths of a second, it'd still have been the right call. Phanatic posted:A cardboard box is opaque, so to your eyes there might be something inside it. OK, I’m sorry because I do realize this post was several pages ago, but please you have to stop spreading the idea that AEB can somehow distinguish between a solid car and a car-shaped object that happens to be a balloon. Because that is totally and utterly wrong, and by the time those ultrasonic sensors are able to detect a car the collision would already have become unavoidable. AEB works by using radar and optical sensors. I have never heard of AEB using ultrasonic, and if you have any proof that’s the case with Tesla or any other OEM then you need to show it. Go read the NHTSA investigation into the fatal Model S crash in Florida; it goes into detail about exactly which circumstances AEB will work and which ones it won’t; it won’t protect you against cut-ins, cut-outs (which is the case being demoed here) or cars crossing your path.

revolther posted:ULTRASOUND! the ultrasonic rangefinders in a tesla (which are identical to the ones required by law in every other MY2018 new car) are only used for parking assistance and blind spot object detection, including the emergency swerve maneuver that we've seen a few times when someone moves to cut off a tesla running on autopilot. they're fine for very short-range low-speed "a thing is here" functionality. however, their range, update rate and precision makes them fundamentally and totally unsuitable for forward object detection. i don't expect phanatic to actually know that though since he thinks they're, fuckin, i don't know, the same kind of medical imaging sensor you see in an obstetrician's office

(Minimum audit frequency to maintain HACCP certification is annually, and they're here for about 2-3 days) Yeah, no. There is no yearly certification process or auditing of any kind for any of the food/drug manufacturers I have ever worked at. I interviewed at a long time GNC supplier last week that has never been audited and doesn't even have paperwork for their production process. I worked at a large amazon based vitamin vendor putting out tens of millions of units from a dirty warehouse that only ever filled out the initial paperwork to receive the technical classification of being "FDA Certified." I worked at two other drug companies that shipped worldwide from multiple plants in the United States and they didn't even know what an FDA audit was like and just improvised their production processes based on what they thought they might get in trouble for, in case they were ever inspected (They weren't.) I've seen companies that vend bulk capsules and tablets operated out of RVs like Breaking Bad. I'm sure regular inspections do happen, but they also don't and I'm willing to bet that is the vast majority of cases. VictorianQueerLit fucked around with this message at 01:30 on Jun 18, 2018 |

Well, OK. I'm not going to buy ingredients from anyone without a current HACCP certificate or equivalent, and none of the supermarket chains would by from us if we couldn't provide one. If I did skip the approved supplier bit and someone got sick as a consequence I could face criminal prosecution. Being able to show due diligence is my defence against that. Maybe it's different in the U.S.? How conflict-of-interest is handled is above my level, but the system runs on chain-of-trust. The company that audits us gets audited in term by the registrar above them. Note: the goverment/council audits are a joke. I think we see them for a couple of hours every five years or so?

If you aren't in the U.S. then that is where we are running into a difference of opinion. I've overseen the production of hundreds of millions of units of vitamins, prescription drugs, and food and I've never even heard of a HACCP certification.

Yeah, no. No regulatory oversight. Like i said, huge operations are running out of dirty warehouses. People produce poo poo out of RVs. Raw poultry and hamburger is packaged as "FULLY COOKED" because it costs more money to stop production and properly clean out freezers than it is to just gamble that the occasional raw meat isn't going to be a problem. Metal detectors have their sensitivity turned down if they are finding too much metal in your meat or pills. I bet if any U.S. companies are actually volunteering for all of this extra inspecting they aren't required to actually have then they are a shockingly small percentage of manufacturers.

Yeah, I was a poultry inspector for a year myself. Where do you think I saw all of the raw poultry get packaged as cooked? I got an FDA/USDA certification to be doing constant in-house inspections of a meat facilities production runs. The physical presence of an inspector doesn't mean anything because in the day to day operations an inspector is just an employee and they are outranked by a shift supervisor or line leader making judgement calls which are 100% of the time going to ignore a $20,000 production stoppage because raw meat hit the wrong sector of the facility and are instead going to be "gently caress it." It's a nice thought that all of this poo poo is regulated and controlled but it isn't. The Food and Drug Administration isn't standing there with a clipboard inspecting every factory, every day. Any complaint I've ever made has received no response and resulted in no action. In ten years I've only ever heard rumors about FDA audits and have never worked in any facility that has actually experienced one. If you anecdotally know someone who knows someone or have experienced a facility where they go above and beyond the normal to be completely compliant and strictly follow the rules that's fine, but that's the exception not the rule.

The Locator posted:Unions don't always let the line employees vote on stuff like that. One of my co-workers significant other is a union worker and at the beginning of this year the union agreed to allow the company to mandate 12 hour shifts doing 10-12 days straight then 2 or 3 off, repeating for probably the rest of the year (no end date given or mandated by the union). Every single employee hates it but they have no choice if they want to keep their jobs. The pay is great of course due to the huge amount of overtime, but it's killing the older guys (and gals presumably) and wrecking their quality of life. To add to the misery, the job itself (railroad work) is often 4-8+ hours from home and they have to drive to that location and live in the company paid (rat trap) hotel during the days they are working. The travel time is not paid and therefore comes out of the already far too small 'off' days on both ends.
