It would be mistaken to say companies like Pratt and Whitney have not innovated on jet engine design in the last 70+ years of making them. For example, 13 years ago they added this single gear between the compressor stage and turbofan at a program cost of only $10 billion. 🧵

@tacobell second time getting rancid food and your complaint form errors out.

Tell me how long you've been using computers without telling me how long you've been using computers.

@ConsumerSOS @TorontoPearson EGates with NEXUS are amazing. Walked past a completely full customs hall a week or two ago and right through the eGate. Took me 30s through customs.

Air Travel: I asked Greg Owen of GTAA how much the dozen newly-installed eGates will be able to decrease international arrival wait times at @TorontoPearson.

Remember that giant country-wide outage by @Rogers Canada a few weeks back? Rogers has now released some more insights into what happened. Let's take a look 🧵

One year ago this afternoon. Some have completely rebuilt, others are just holes in the ground still.

@shehackspurple @RachelTobac Lots of people couldn’t pay bills because the banks themselves went down public facing. Not just 2FA via SMS. Lots of carrier redundancy conversations on Monday…

@RachelTobac I literally couldn’t pay bills this morning/still can’t. It’s causing huge issues

Rogers telco going down for Canadians is likely causing big issues for SMS 2-factor. Can’t get into accounts if you can’t get the code! In the future consider moving to app-based or security keys to avoid this (and match your MFA to your threat model) tvo.org/article/the-ro…

@PatFlynn You could use a small panel heater/cooler (used for electric panels outside): thermoelectric.com/air-conditione… or hack a temp control to a tiny portable fridge / cooler to give better temp control.

I need some help! What would be the best way to control the temperature of a container, like a cabinet or box. I’d ideally like to keep it at a certain temp for a period of time, then change it and keep it steady. Both warm and cold. I feel like this is easy but my brain hurts

Even in #Dnipro people are preparing for life underground, making basements as comfy as they can. Upstairs, I’ve seen window glass taped; piles of tyres in yards But life goes on: teachers do zoom classes between bunkers -‘so the children are busy & don’t panic’, a mum told me

Canada is 1/10th the size of USA If the US has had 900K Covid deaths it stands to reason that we should have had 90K deaths - Sadly, we've lost 34K. - So it's possible there are 56K Canadians still alive because most of us did what we had to do Maybe you know one of them

I am making public the letter I sent to @TOPublicHealth today, asking for school intervention. It's a targeted ask to recognize the risk to 1.1 million wholly unvaccinated children in Ontario next week. It's not the only need, but it's the scariest. furness.ca/schools.pdf

@m8urnett One has an integrated heat exchanger and is super insulated for hydronic systems, the other is a run of the mill gas water heater. If you need the fancy one for a geothermal system just get the seperate heat exchanger instead.

Why does a hot water tank with no heater cost $1300 more than one with a heater? Is it like how sugar free stuff costs more?

@ClarkKazak The number of people that get my name wrong would surprise you. Most assume it can’t actually be spelt that way and adjust accordingly!

Take a look at what's changed and what's stayed the same in the neighbourhood hit hardest by the July 15, 2021 . torstar.co/WKwt50Gq0Yz

@voipms sent you a DM as there is a small chance I may be able to help you out, depending on your network topology.
