Pretty OSHA picture from not that long ago.



Most of the people killed in the bridge washout were from my hometown. The disaster helped spawn the term "debris torrent".

I want to try this. I have a pressure cooker like that one, with the steam vent in the middle of the lid. I once absent-mindedly pulled off the wobbly weight before cooling the cooker down, and it was noisy and exciting. I didn't think to put an egg in there.

Difficulty: don't use a hard boiled egg.

Didn’t read the title on imgur. This was not the outcome I was expecting, given that the truck is carrying flammable liquids of some sort or another.

It's some bizarre attempt to boost production of the Model 3. Don't buy a Model 3 unless you enjoy cars with the build quality of a 1993 Hyundai.

Pretty sure they are man-made lily pads though considering the way it kind of shattered and they look at little too perfectly formed, plus I've never seen any that big, but I could be wrong; either way, they are likely not meant to be stepped on.

Other than the guy spraying on it while it's still moving poo poo around and a distinct lack of guarding to prevent somebody falling off/getting wrecked if the machine kicks one of those out what am I missing?

Spraying/strapping should be done by a machine naturally but this doesn't seem that terrible as far as a manual process goes.

This is the reason why you should hire a group of industry specialists before you try to re-invent the industry.

Scaling problems, product problems, PR problems... Seems like someone forgot to hire the logistics engineers to keep the system actually running, and capable of actually producing what was promised.
