Oh, that's a very specific crack. This is an extrusion error. The extrusion temperature is dropping too low while it's still over the internal die. The thicker peaks cool more slowly than the thinner flats, remaining at a weaker t

This isn't about Amazon's retail inventory. This is inventory owned by vendors, held in Amazon's care. Think about how this would play out in a consignment shop. In the case of a no fault accident like a fire, paying back a d

In this case it's a bad test thing. The car impacted at a barrier splice which was not correctly joined. Barrier splices can come apart in the real world, but the fasteners will tear apart the sheet metal in the process. That splice ge

A thermal fuse isn't for overpressure control, it's intended to trip before a physical overpressure control vents superheated steam. Both provide failover redundancy independent of operational heater controls. There isn't eno

A more powerful laser is only half of the equation for cutting metal effectively. The laser only melts the metal, it doesn't move it out of the cut, and some metals can react in plain air to sputter back at the emitter optics. Gas is f

For things to get this far is a failure of accounting. Engineering may have set the stage, but it's accounting's job to respond appropriately rather than letting (or not seeing) this play out. Treating accounting unseriously is an

The mole was whacked, but only slightly. The seller's account and remaining scammy inventory is still up. The offense here was clearly the embarassment to Amazon from a couple of examples of blatant incompetence, not the scam itself.
