They're impressing him with their rules lawyering of the Torah. Which if God enjoys getting rules lawyer'd, explains an awful lot about man being made in his image and the current state of affairs.

I don’t know about eruvs but I know some Orthodox functions can only be performed by other Jews. Repairing an eruv may be something like that.

It's possible that in some places like Israel, you might find the eruv is a local government function but in most places it's private. In other words, eruvs create jobs!

drunkill posted:Its a huge area of the south east bayside suburbs. ALso as noted by someone else, there is an inner hole around a park with a lake in it. I'm shocked at how huge this area is, and yet doesn't touch the CBD. And was curious about why it excludes Landcox Park: "Lastly, all the areas to be enclosed must be "residential areas," or areas suitable for residential areas. It is not permitted to include bodies of water [lakes, streams, and ponds, although reservoirs currently in use as drinking water sources are permitted without modification), and cemeteries. Such areas must be excluded from the Eruv by closing them off (either by not including them in the Eruv area, or by encircling them within the Eruv)." https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/Judaism/eruv.html This answers someone's earlier question about "make a tiny circle and say that everything inside the circle is outside the eruv". Nope, actually have to put effort into it.

zedprime posted:But that's also a reason that gets deceptive. Yes, you learn statistics, and then get safety factors presented in terms of statistics. But do you really understand what 1/1000 years means versus 1/10000? Then ok, an incident happens. How do we figure if it's a big Bayesian deal or a little Bayesian deal. But "complex enough" is something like a mission to another planet, not a goddamn beamgun like Therac-25. For something like it, having at the core, some pretty simple life-critical functionality, there is no excuse to not design, implement and analyse (and prove correct, if feasible) the simplest possible safe inner loop (in hardware and software) and build everything else around that. Previous models had hardware interlocks to prevent such faults, but the Therac-25 had removed them, depending instead on software checks for safety... The wikipedia article blames the "overconfidence of the engineers" (twice in one paragraph!) but if you read through the whole incident it's pretty loving apparent that it's the managers and accountants pulling the strings all the way.

I'm not impressed with it. If you're that invested in not following a dumb rule because it's inconvenient and gets in the way of your life, stop following it. I mean surely that'd be using your god-given intelligence.

The Dark One posted:Oh, you know, just a few paint-buckets of uranium ore lying around in a museum for some reason. Was just coming here to post this. "Stephenson said the containers were stored next to a taxidermy exhibit, where children on tours sometimes stopped for presentations, sitting next to uranium for 30 minutes or more. By his calculation, those children could have received radiation dosages in excess of federal safety standards within three seconds, and adults could have suffered dangerous exposure in less than a half-minute."

Based on the bus, this appears to be in Brazil. There seems to be a big uptick in street performers (and random bums) cosplaying as the PS4 Spiderman recently. There's now an rear end in a top hat in downtown Austin who harasses women and follows them around until they pose for a selfie with him. I don't know what it is about the PS4 Spiderman look in particular that seems to make it so much more common than any other character...

"By his calculation, those children could have received radiation dosages" leaves a ton of wiggle room. Is he actually qualified to make that calculation? Does he have sufficient data? Or did he make some wild-rear end napkin math using the worst possible assumptions? I'm mainly a little skeptical because there are lots of teachers and such that keep a chunk of uranium ore around in their office for decades without everyone freaking out. "As a former Army helicopter pilot who later worked as a safety manager in the Navy, Stephenson said he knew it was "bad mojo"". And also this, flight school generally doesn't include a section on the health effects of uranium ore.

I'm mainly a little skeptical because there are lots of teachers and such that keep a chunk of uranium ore around in their office for decades without everyone freaking out. Even a chunk of pure uranium metal the size of your fist isn't appreciably radioactive. You're way more likely to suffer health consequences from breathing in the ore dust than you are sitting next to a paperweight made from it. Also, federal safety standards are hilariously conservative, having a basement in certain parts of the country with decomposed granite will exceed the federal limits quite handily. Non-radiation Workers and the Public posted:The dose limit to non-radiation workers and members of the public are two percent of the annual occupational dose limit. Therefore, a non-radiation worker can receive a whole body dose of no more that 0.1 rem/year from industrial ionizing radiation. This exposure would be in addition to the 0.3 rem/year from natural background radiation and the 0.05 rem/year from man-made sources such as medical x-rays.

Xaintrailles posted:Probably ought to considering the depleted uranium ammo. 2. Depleted uranium is really not radioactive, because it's been depleted of the radioactive U235. It's actually kinda useful as radiation shielding as a result. 3. The U238 that makes up most of the mass of depleted uranium is an alpha emitter, which is only significantly hazardous if it gets on/under your skin.

darthbob88 posted:1. Might as well talk about the health hazards of the iron and aluminum ore that went into assembling the helicopter. The dust is poisonous as gently caress and does all kinds of wonky poo poo to critical enzymes in your body when absorbed through the lungs or digestive tract. And breathing in dust would qualify as 'under your skin' which is why it's seen as such a bad industrial hazard at mines and in industry.
