I'm a biologist working at a place that sells microfluidic instruments and while the base cost of the instrument is high the single use consumable cost needed to run experiments is insane. Yeah consumables, especially in biopharma manufacturing, are loving insane

He also used to be severly depressed. Skydiving and wingsuit flying probably saved his life, he lives for it now, doing formation flying and competitions.

That is the trashcan outside the exit emptied multiple times. Not the discarded clean glass from the tunnel, not the broken drug contaminated glass, not the empty cans of IPA and empty bottles of peroxide, not the cans in the cleanroom just full of latex gloves, nothing but tyvek that people wore in and out. Dumping a tunnel because the glass was malformed or because there was an air reversal or something... just creating and hauling bags of shards of glass in tyvek bunny suits. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=veMiNQifZcM

If you’re in the US you can call 988 and it will connect you to a mental health crisis line. Also lmao at google being terrible, if you just search “crisis line” it does not show that number at the top of the search. If you search many other connected topics it does.

Serephina posted:It's so, so stupid. And there's an entire industry sprung up to service these people. Any "no deaths" rule in a content sharing thread is just there as a definite line in the sand to prevent the slippery slope of people posting snuff and gore to get their rocks off. Because that is what it always devolves into, with "lol shock value," "don't like it don't look," or "this is how the real world works so get used to it" as a fig leaf over their personal kink. Everything else is just details, and if that means that informative health and safety vids get left by the wayside as collateral damage, well, that's unfortunate but not really worth loosening the rules over.

Pharma manufacturing looks expensive until you compare it to the rest of the process and then it’s a drop in the bucket.

Methylethylaldehyde posted:It's Big Pharma and lovely SV crypto startups combined into a great new flavor, like toothpaste and OJ. Basically you exploit foreign scientists with false promises of riches with bullshit stock options if they work for free to crank out a super niche patent that hopefully a big pharma company buys just to own it even if they never plan to use it. The investors get a big pay day, vonpany gets dissolved and the foreign scientists ie my dad get poo poo canned.

Woolwich Bagnet posted:Pharma manufacturing looks expensive until you compare it to the rest of the process and then it’s a drop in the bucket. lol yeah like 10 years before I worked at that place they bankrupted a company completely doing a FDA shelf-stabilization test fill where the lyo cracked and they threw the whole lot away, leaving that chemo drug dead in the water. Then they brought in a welder to fix the lyo, he said he couldn't fix it, they threatened him and he did it, then it cracked on the other side and they made him fix that and then sued him and won. That lyo was still killing lots at random intervals because the geometry was hosed until I was gone, pretty sure it finally got decommed.

A lot more safe and effective than some of the homemade smoke machines I've seen. For thoes who aent mechanics, they are checking for vacuum leaks in the engine. The actual tool costs about 500 bucks or more and makes smoke by burning baby oil. Edit. Although I dno why they went through all that effort to find a leak in that obviously lovely hose connection. You could have just as easily confirmed it's shittyness by spraying carb clean on that spot and hearing the engine bog down. Preoptopus fucked around with this message at 21:44 on Apr 23, 2024 |

Well, unless it's your day to day commute. Just wingsuiting to the office.
