- Comment on Harvard study links GLP-1 weight-loss drugs to a 27-point jump in women's employment — bigger than a college degree gap 1 week ago:
Thank you!
I have nothing but a hunch to back this up: I’d be weary of the potential bias introduced by the medicine price vs available cash in the general unemployed population. The households that can afford glp-1s will likely be socio-economically stronger, thus the unemployed women will be better educated and more likely to be re-employed.
- Comment on Resistor Identification 1 month ago:
What keeps the relay closed? Is there a latching circuit or is it the pressure sensor? Because it seems to me that this is where the problem is.
A couple of things I would look into:
- What’s on the heatsink? A transistor driving the relay
- What happens if you bypass the sensor and manually affect the circuit driving the relay?
- Going with the theory, that the relay is driven by a transistor, does said transistor have a diode across it?
I find the transistor being blown by the back EMF from the relay much more plausible, than a random resistor sliding out of spec.
- Comment on What could be causing this on my new Elegoo CC2? 2 months ago:
We had a bunch of cheapo creality printers on wheeled tables at work. Some of the printers did something similar, so the wobbling was my prime suspect. But there was no correlation between fail and placement. It was printer specific.
Turned out to be issues with the z-axis screw and stabilizers. A good cleaning and, I seem to remember, a new bushing, was all it took.
- Comment on Yo, Duplo, what you doing on the 24th? 1 year ago:
When trying to find differences between virgin and recycled scap plastic all I get is AI crap product comparison sites and various companies trying to sell their recycling system…
What downsides is there to recycling your own plastic scrap, which you have had full control over the entire time. I would imagine trying to color match with consumer waste plastic is a nightmare, same with moisture (at least that’s an issue when printing). But if you have a bunch of plastic in an homogeneous color and you grind it up to make something of the same color, and you’ve had the scraps in a controlled environment, then what more issues are there?
