Sagebrush posted:Forgive me for being blunt but I think that working at Los Alamos in 1944 and dying of cancer 63 years later doesn't really imply causation. I was about to say something similar -- at the risk of sounding like an insensitive jackass, that's a pretty good freaking run! I would figure that radiation-induced cancer is something that shows up and kills you relatively quickly.

Buff Skeleton posted:How would fire escape work in a rotating skyscraper? I imagine you'd have the actual fire stairwell in the center along with elevators (and all the rotating machinery), but if there are any interior walls up against the central column, then bad times happen if your floor's fire doors are obscured. So I'm guessing no walls against the center, and a 360-degree radius around it which is all open so you can always access the elevators / doors regardless of rotation. There was a documentary about this kind of place already: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAWSkYqqkMA

Karate Bastard posted:I'm not a woodturner so I gotta ask is this man a dumbass? I've only turned a handful of things and therefore am hardly an expert, so: I don't know if there's a better way of clearing out the inside of the cone. It's basically the same way you'd hollow out a deep vessel, with the tool rest going well into the form itself, but taken to the extreme while... uh, sitting on the tool rest? I guess if you're dead-set on doing this, you kinda have to do it this way. That said: holy poo poo does everything about it seem unsafe. That thing seems to spend about 80% of the time out of round. The fact that he had to suspend it from the ceiling for support... I don't even know. I'm mostly amazed at the faceplate and bolts which managed to actually hold the stock. Good on him for wearing a face shield though!

Karate Bastard posted:I thought one should take care to stay clear of the tool in case it snags and kicks up and hits you in the whatever you didn't clear? Also I thought you should keep the tool rest close to the work piece in order to minimize the risk of that happening? Whereas this guy actively leans over the handle of a tool that goes halfway past the rest so if it snags it will probably fling him into an active tornado of maple and tools? Or am I being a wuss? No, I think you're right on all of the above. I don't know if the lever action would be strong enough to fling him in case of a catch, but it would sure leave a nice impression as the handle wallops him. There are so many things that look incredibly dangerous there that I don't even know what to look at anymore. I'm imagining the bolts letting go and then the massive goddamn tree just steamrolls anyone nearby. In unrelated gifs, this turbo sucking in an air rag was posted on Jalopnik:  followed by this in the comments:  The guy survived with minor injuries, apparently. RIP the turbo and valves though.

Gorilla Salad posted:You need a low pitch, bass sound or they won't even stir. A recorded voice clip is even better, preferably a mature woman. There was a business school case study about a company that wanted to sell exactly that kind of product, allowing parents to record a clip in their open voice so they could use their kids' names, personalize the alert, etc. The incumbent fire alarm mfgs got spooked and fought them tooth and nail through lawsuits, lobbying, FUD. To the best of my recollection, the product never made it to market.

They probably believe they can fix all corners based on what's learned from a few, rather than needing the data to fix that specific corner. There's a "corner case" joke in here somewhere.
