Grundulum posted:So what you are saying is that if any single one of a chain of decisions had been made differently, a disaster would have been averted? No, I am saying exactly the opposite of that - which is unusual for these videos. The pressure relief valves were set to 150psi, by design. A 2mm hole corruded through a pipe that carries a corrosive substance. The system over-pressurised to 30psi and a connection failed. The failure mode was to blast incapaciting levels of ammonia and brine into the faces of the workers. It's a bad system, rather then the usual 'screw down this, ignore that, hit that with a hammer' failures.

solarNativity posted:Who looks behind them when they pull onto the shoulder? This is basically that, there should be no way anyone is there and I wouldn't have looked moving into that fresh new lane, car or bike. They're cycling on the motorway, sure, but they're probably only where they are because you can't ride the shoulder through an exit. As vehicles, they did nothing wrong but fail to account for absolutely massive dipshits. From a while back, but when driving my car I pretty much always look over my shoulder whenever moving into a space that nobody else should be in - like the shoulder, an exit lane that only just started, a lane that I'm already halfway through changing into - because I know one day someone is going to be there - a car overtaking on the hard shoulder, a cyclist who doesn't give a drat about indicators - and I'm hoping to have another boring story about an rear end in a top hat on the road instead of an "accident". And also because the "lane I'm already halfway through changing into" has become occupied very suddenly once or twice before. Maybe I need to change lanes really quickly instead, like an obstacle suddenly appeared in my lane and I'm a human being or a self-driving car other than a Tesla.

You underestimate the importance of arena ice to the shithole mining/mill towns of northern Canada, where the only three things to be excited about other than hockey are sweet, gently caress and all. These guys were responsible for the lifeblood of that community, ahead of only the Zamboni driver.

 Last week someone in the Netherlands drove an excavator onto a plank held up by a crane in order to demolish a building. The operator isn't wearing a helmet either. This is a BIG DEAL. It's like on top of the national news sites right now. Those responsible "have been sent home" by the demolition company. They say the guys were just showing off and it lasted no more than 10 minutes. But they admit it's completely unacceptable. The news calls it a "crisis" for the demolition company. The directors of the demolition company are also incredibly angry at the employee who filmed and uploaded the event because something like this might mean nobody ever wants to contract this company for anything again. On top of that, "several" occupational safety and other instances are starting investigations against the company and a party in the local city council wants to know what's happened as well. The demolition operation has been put entirely on hold for now, and one source says that if the official national OSHA organization becomes involved, the company can expect a fine between 25000 and 50000 eur.

Tagging in slightly late. Regarding phase matching, and the aurora vulnerability specifically, the phase mismatch results in potentially full peak-to-peak voltage across the breaker as you're closing it, and arc quenching isn't designed to work in that direction, so you're maybe going to explode your switchgear. The vast difference in voltage leads briefly to a vast current, which generates a vast torque in your generator, rather like dumping the clutch at redline. We had to dj that poo poo on the boat to shift the plant around, and the diesel was a stone cold bastard to work with.

ExecuDork posted:Every time I deliberately check that there's no car driving up the sidewalk, nothing coming the wrong way up the one-way street, nobody hammering it straight at the red light or crosswalk I'm about to cross, I say to myself "it's not the GOOD drivers you need to watch out for." I can't count the number of times drivers here have turned left into my sidewalk and I've had to quickly run out of the way or get run over. This is in Seattle, too. I just assume anyone I see in a car is drunk, texting, sleep-deprived and an idiot and plan accordingly.
