  • I disagree. I think you want to keep a small MOI because that allows you to control a tipping carton with the least amount of torque. At least that’s how I’ve been justifying by method of taking from the outsides, in.

    It’s much harder to control a stick with weights in the ends, ESPECIALLY if the weights are unbalanced (which they will be unless you’re only using even numbers of eggs. )

    1. We should hang out at parties.
    2. None of this matters in my real life because my wife is a chaos goblin who just grabs eggs from WHEREVER she pleases, almost like she’s not even considering the mass moment of inertia at all!

  • I’m essence, yeah. I had nothing but nice things to say about the current company I was working for. Liked my job, like the company, boss, etc. Whenthe interviewers asked why I was leaving I told them that it was a small, family owned business (not my family). I loved working there but I’m only making about half the market value for my degree. The current boss told me from the start that he wouldn’t be able to pay what I’m worth, but asked that I learn what I could there, then let them know when I’m going to move on. I relayed all that to my interviewers and they loved it. Later they cited that answer as one of the reasons they hired me.



  • We had this in our local, small town police department. Female police officer spoke up and blew the whistle on somebody that was accepting BJ’s to let tickets slide.

    The department “downsized”, let her go, then re-upsized to hire a different person back. Then they said her allegations were just in retaliation for being let go. Then she sued for wrongful termination and I THINK she ended up winning.

    I might have some of the details mixed up cause this was all going down JUST as I was moving into the town.




  • For me, it’s family. Even within the US I know there are a lot of better places to live with more to do, more walkable neighborhoods, etc. But my wife and I both have our parents here, and we both have 2 siblings and there are 9 cousins (our generation’s kids) and I love watching them grow up together. As much as I disagree with the politics locally and Nationally, I also love that I don’t have to raise my kids on an island. So it’s either stay here, or join a cult somewhere.
