I've used Redmine with the Checklists plugin for this. Each thing that needs to be done is a redmine issue, and each issue can have a checklist. As team members check off items on the list, the issue logs who/what/when and

Someone should have taken a step back when they were writing that guide and said "Wait, what? Why is this even necessary?" To think that they're recommending that and some people are accepting that as a real solution makes m

As someone who has torn down and rebuilt a thinkpad or two, I was appalled when I started looking into his and other videos on MBP repair since I've never owned a MBP. They're clearly designed with entirely different priorities;

To add to this, the FRA regulates track speed based upon condition of the track and some other requirements. Track condition is typically quite good (rail companies really want to avoid derailments), but one of the biggest impediments is g

They're working on it, and have been for a while now. The main problem is its just a massive amount of work. They had to develop a fail safe system almost from scratch (Which also has to be interoperable between railroads). And then

Agreed. With traditional tools, I do have a netlist and schematic available for every circuit I work on. I've never reached for the netlist when studying or debugging, it doesn't convey enough information. Sure the netlist tec

Depending on the RR, the hot box detector will read out over the radio whether it has found a defect, what axle number it counted it to be on, and the total number of axles counted. It uses a pyrometer to "measure" the temperatur

Nonetheless, it is what is used on freight lines in the U.S quite successfully, and provides other protections such as broken rail detection. Detached cars are detected using the FRED/braking system, and secondarily by axle counts give

Their metric for determining remoteness is really lacking in my opinion, it doesn't jive at all with what I think many people would consider a remote location. Something along the lines of population density would tend to give a more

Its not just information age companies, it seems to me that many people in general are ignorant of the concept that a distraction-free work environment is important. I'm at a company that has been around for 50 years, and they still s
