SneezeOfTheDecade posted:Many smoke detectors do, in fact, contain a small amount of Americium-241. There's obviously not enough in any given detector to be a substantial hazard to human health, but the joke is sound. Let me assure you, a fire alarm's sound is no joke!

Americium fire detectors continue to be the more sensitive option too, but newer ionization sensors allowed them to cut the amount from 80 microcuries to less than a hundredth that, as low as 0.29 microcuries.

And even then, we don't spend a whole lot of time adjacent to smoke detectors. Radiation exposure decreases with the square of the distance, so having them on the ceiling also reduces exposure because of that.

This poo poo always drives me crazy. You should only carry a tray with one hand, because a single pivot point is way easier to control. It's like balancing a broom on your hand, it's easy if you have the strength and balance the tray properly. Whenever people double-hand it it dramatically increases the wobble, because the hands will tend to desynchronize . No one who attempts a double-handed carry is qualified to attempt a carry that's big enough for them to attempt it double-handed.

Yup, that and there's practically nothing in the way of Gamma from Americium daughter products, and the source is much more heavily shielded than older smoke detectors. A good blog of an older 80 microcurie source: http://www.diyphysics.com/2013/01/20/80-%C2%B5ci-americium-241-sources-inside-old-pyrotronics-f35a-smoke-detectors/

There's a parachute on the ground there, maybe it was meant to power that.

So today I run a log report and notice a driver drive 70 miles off logs. I message him and he calls me: "The NJ State Police told me to log out and drive" "What?" "At the crime scene" "WHAT?" "They said they made the exception because of the fatalities" "WHAT???"

I kicked it up the chain of command and didn't touch it. I've been involved in editing logs for drivers who were later involved in fatalities and I really don't like being subpoenaed.

I'm imagining he got stuck in traffic behind a fatal accident, by the time traffic was moving or he reached the accident site he was going to "time out" and need to take a log enforced break. There was nowhere to take a break so the cops gave him the golden ticket of turn the logs off and gtfo.

There was nowhere to take a break so the cops gave him the golden ticket of turn the logs off and gtfo. Which they are very much not supposed to do. There are very specific rules about exceptions and annotations that need to be entered in the record of duty status in a situation like this. The problem that we run into constantly is that the rules are extremely complicated but it's usually down to an uninformed officer's discretion in how they are applied or enforced. Unfortunately if the incident comes up in an FMCSA audit the excuse of "The cop said it was okay" won't fly.

Because I'm white as hell and that last part strikes even me as a way to have a very bad night. Regardless whether I'm technically in the right, I can't imagine any company would take too well to having to bail out a driver and deal with whatever the gently caress it is they'd do with the truck.

Azathoth posted:Out of curiosity, how much of it is "the cop said this was okay" vs. "the cop told me to get moving and I wasn't about to argue with him and risk getting carted off to jail"? Most of the "Cop told me to do X" stories we get are conveniently misinterpreted so we tend to take them with a grain of salt. This situation was backed up with supporting documentation (our driver's statement to the police after witnessing the incident) so we made an exception and didn't really get on his case for it. Everything we did input and correct contained robust annotations, however.

Paramotors in fact are not regulated by the FAA, except inasmuch as you can't fly them in controlled airspace and so on. Neither you nor the equipment needs any sort of license or certification. Just strap it on and go nuts. There sure are a lot of morons out there flying them, though, like this guy taking his paramotor up to 15,000 feet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8GlZBKLieo&t=2s While it's technically legal for him to do that, it's stupid. At 15,000 feet normal airplanes are required to have transponders for ATC tracking and collision avoidance and the pilot is required to use supplemental oxygen. This guy has neither. He's a nearly-stationary object not in radio contact with anyone and carrying no transponder, floating around at an altitude where aircraft speeds are unlimited and no pilot is expecting to find a guy on a parachute just hanging out, while suffering from hypoxia and probably frostbite too.
