It's sometimes speculated the bodies in the Hoover Dam urban legend is basically just a mix-up based on the deaths at the Fort Peck Dam in 1938. That one is an earth-filled dam in Montana that had a huge landslide during the construction and only 2 bodies were ever recovered from the 8 that weren't rescued. The other half dozen are presumably a part of the dam. The two were close enough together in time that it's easy to see how people could conflate them, especially with all the talk of Hoover Dam deaths.

They hired workers made out of concrete back then so its was fine if they ended up in the dam

I have a DJI FPV and the rotors on it are terrifying, I literally would never attempt to grab it out of the sky, I've seen images of the aftermath of people getting caught in it's rotors and it'll cut you right the gently caress up. For something strong enough to lift a person I can't imagine it being any more safe. Basically, gently caress that poo poo.

Making it as hard as possible to do the wrong thing is definitely relevant in UI/UX design, as well. Accidental deletions are a thing you very much have to minimize.

I grew up out in the country where it was pretty common to have a generator hooked up in case of outages, I never thought about the exact mechanics of wiring it in before. My dad's a competent electrician (as far as I know), so hopefully he didn't just splice one of those together himself to get it done.

Worked with a farm-raised guy who would bitch about 'liberal white collar bureaucrats' treating everyone like idiots and making it 'impossible' for him to do his job because we had to have guards over conveyer screws and belt drives and stuff, but to be fair, having less than ten fingers probably did make his work more difficult.

Zero VGS posted:What even would be a time that is needed? The only thing I can think of is if you were crazed enough to backfeed your house in an outage using a portable generator, and even that adds huge amount of danger such as for lineworkers who think power is cut. It's how you hook up a generator in a "drawing an electrical diagram" way, and probably how most people do it. Couple problems in practice though:
The proper way to backfeed is to plug a thick generator cord into a generator outlet (has male prongs) and going into a dedicated circuit that is on an interlock with the main breaker. The interlock makes it so the generator circuit (and it's male outlet) can't be energized when hooked into the grid, and so the main can't be engaged when the generator circuit is live. You can also use a transfer switch, but it involves more wiring, costs more, and you usually only get a few circuits to choose from. Makes it easier to tell when power is restored though.
