Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC872sqjMNC8kHU0GU0ShZFw while cautioning that she seems to be genetically engineered to split wood. Her technique is like watching an Olympic athlete. No wasted motion at all, all energy delivered to the maul straight down. She’s a muse.
She's got a video where she explains in detail how to chop. She goes through everything from stance - including protecting the shins - to axe technique. Absolutely terrific - I feel a strained shoulder just watching the videos.
Wow! Great link. I’m better than average but… yeah, I’d upgrade her to goddess. She’ll just carve a new axe handle when she feels like it. Truly humbling.
I dunno, what are you splitting? For full rounds or the large chunks that first split off them, I often do have stuff go flying when it finally splits. Typically I am splitting on top of another round so that adds to the distance.
I have a couple diamond/ grenade wedges, a rescue wedge and a traditional wedge I barely ever use. I have the big Fiskars maul and that is great for a lot of stuff. Bigger things, whole rounds I use two wedges near each other and hit them in concert with the sledge side of the maul.
Most wood is easier to split when dry/ aged, but I recently learned that does not apply to elm and a few others, so it’s worth checking. Elm is awful no matter what.
I mean, yes. I would like to know that because it’s an unacceptable state of affairs from my perspective. If the production line relied on just always having someone working who remembered things instead of a proper solution to the Hit By a Bus problem I wouldn’t be buying that brand. It is my anecdata, uninformed opinion much of IT for cars is below average development. I started to wonder about this when I got a hold of two USB images to update a Chevy Camaro in 2010 (open driver’s side door between keys to indicate you were about to install the second USB key) and it feels weird to me this is still so poorly secured. Between the Hyundai/ Kia theft is sue a couple years back and my own experience with multiple long-standing bugs in our Hyundai’s infotainment system, I am suspicious of this ever being fixed.
Oh, don't understand me wrong. I've never seen a better organized embedded development process than in automotive. Review rules, reproducable builds, sometimes good unit tests(not just senseless stupid shit that wastes developer time), a test department in another room that develops test software to automate hardware in the loop tests, huge hardware in the loop test rigs that are running the newest build 24/7.
IT in cars is all other than below average. It's not the move fast and break things shit of silicon valley. And it's not the 'we ship it with the next update' shit of the game industry.
BUT, there is no documentation because there is no time to do it. There are SOP-1(Start of Production). This date is carved in stone. When a feature is not done for SOP-1, than it is not delivered in SOP-2. SOP-2 happens normally 6 month later. After that, updates are only done when something bad happens. The complete team moves on to the next head unit.
So, I would expect your bugs will not get fixed in any way, at least when they are not important enough to mobilize a new small team or some people that worked on it to fix them. Normally shortly before SOP-2, all tickets are closed, known bugs too. That feels a little frustrating as customer, but more as developer.
Oh, and don't think that you can run away from that by buing another brand. Normally not your car manufacturer develops the head unit. It's other companies and they work all the same and they work for all car companies.
Using a plus sign is subaddressing [1] and most ESPs[2] will route to the main address ( multiple@addre.es) . So you can use use multiple+email@adress.es, multiple+xyz@adress.es and both will route the email to you.
In my experience most SaaS apps do not filter this out and allow re-sign ups with sub-addresses.
Gmail has an additional behavior that dot character is ignored in local component of the address . multiple@gmail.com, mult.iple@gmail.com mult.ip.le@gmail.com all route to the same inbox as well.
This is not true (anymore?). I have a rather unfortunate exact naming collision with a family member. They use the full name without dot for the local gmail component, I use a dot between the first and last name.
Two or three mails have been misplaced in a decade.
It would be feasible to change something like that without breaking security now.
Google can hardly start allowing/routing a new account for first.last@gmail.com when you were getting it for years even though your account is firstlast@gmail.com and sensitive communication like say from your bank would routed there.
If you all would shut your hateful traps for a year or so, we might be able to have a productive discussion about what a horror show the Israeli government has become. But we can’t because you all have to pop up out of gopher holes thinking we are antisemitic too and the whole process starts over again because this sort of useful idiot provides cover to the defenders of these war crimes.
What conversation is left to have after 70k children and an oceans worth of Babyblood? What's left to negotiate, reconcile or discuss? Conceding that antisemites are the friction in the discussion just gives Israel rhetorical space to bomb more children. Your sentiments might be directionally correct but not productive (as if that's a valid metric anymore in this redundant debate).
Occupied governments are DESTROYING (constitutional) freedoms, rights, privacy and democracy for this babybloodthirsty state. All the while well meaning folk try to maintain a "productive" landscape of debate/discussion.
The debate is over. The discussion arena exists to sink efforts from materially stopping the babybloodshed.
That's assuming an awful lot, mainly about how we no longer need human connection or context with other people to be able to succeed as a team. When I took over as an engineering manager, it took a couple of 1:1s per person but actually being interested in them as fellow humans made a huge difference. One of my reports, a former teammate who I really liked and got along well with, was carrying serious depression around every day. Learning that gave me a chance to help him out, discuss my experience so he knew he wasn't alone and let me make space for him to breathe.
Which made him a more productive cog in the machine fellow human-bot!
Nothing says human connection as much as scheduled meeting and necessity to have scheduled meeting to get or provide context.
If the general mussings about a company, causual fun project and a little small talk about life require scheduled meething, you dont have those human connections with the team.
Did you considered that people understand difference between human connection, relationship and being one of mandatory duties/meeting with someone who is actually apart and disconnected?
I dated only people I already had human connection with. I did not went to dates because company process said I should or I thought it will make my partner more performing, but because I wanted to be with that person.
We also did quite a lot of spontaneous unplanned stuff.
