Saying this about a clip that's obviously showing an EMT driving an ambulance is so absurd on the face of it that I figured you had to be doing a bit, but so many people are responding sincerely that now I'm not sure the bit was worth it

You're not going to get those piles perfectly in line without some really expensive and finicky GPS or laser guidance, which might not even be usable on a vibratory system like that. They're going to build off of them later to get an actually true support structure.

GPS is what I was thinking. As the placement method is not millimeter accurate I think there's plenty of tolerance even if the GPS doesn't give pinpoint accuracy. The alternative is to use the pile rows as a reference. When your cabin lines up with this row, then you are x metres from that row and with experience you know how far you reach so you get close enough.

There's some machine or operator effect. It always splits exactly one tube each time, and alternates which one goes. That's a pretty unlikely pattern if it's random bad raw material

Maybe something to do with the distribution of force pressing down.
Shouldn't be impossible to fix but I guess massively slowing down the manufacturing process is more cost effective somehow.

people get weird and or mad when I mention this but there is in fact a reasonable actuarial value of how much to spend saving a human life

and I tend to lean toward the end of 3 to 12 million dollars, not the... other end
