15 years experience in a leadership position for something so specific seems like a hard ask. I feel like that’s just asking for a person in their 50s who probably won’t really understand the technological environment they’ll be dealing with.

Most vehicles today have aluminum sub frames

A unibody frame is a bit different than a subframe. You can’t reinforce stress points with steel in a unibody frame like you can with a subframe . And no, most (63%) vehicles still use steel for subframes.

Aluminum only fatigues if stresses are beyond the design threshold.

What are you talking about? Cast aluminum lacks any distinct fatigue limit, so any cycle load causes microscopic damage at stress points.

planes fly millions of miles, and are really only retired because of fuel efficiency.

Again… Where are you pulling this from? Even aircraft grade Aluminum is about 50% more susceptible to metal fatigue than steel. All aircraft have to have routine inspections specifically for metal fatigue and part of regular maintenance is to replace what they can.

engineering knowledge needs some work

Right back at ya… I’m guessing you don’t work with metals in your job? Anyone working in practical engineering or metal fabrication knows aluminum has a big problem with cyclical loads.

I’d be more worried about the aluminum frame. Aluminum under cyclical stress will fatigue and eventually catastrophically fail. It’s why airlines have to constantly test aluminum parts so they can retire or replace them before they fail. It’s only a matter of time before cyber trucks start breaking in half while on the highway. It’s almost like there’s a reason no car manufacturers have made unibody frames out of aluminum before…

Yeah… I really don’t know what they were thinking. I guess that’s what happens when a company is made entirely of designers? I can’t imagine anyone from a legal department would be allowing them to do straight ip theft against a billion dollar corporation.

It’s a case that looks exactly like the companion cube from Portal. So you’re kinda stepping on their feet in more than one way.

It’s an intellectual property thing. If someone can prove that you didn’t defend an intellectual property in one case then they can argue that their utilization is fair use.

It really depends on your energy source and your appliance, but the cost to run something like an oven for an hour is pretty negligible, especially if it’s a somewhat modern appliance.

Most newer over run somewhere around 2-3,000 kwh, which nationwide averages to around .30 to .50 cents an hour.

The real cost of making food at home really just depends on how much you value your own labour/free time, and how much of a chore cooking is for you.

Yep, what we consider to be level is relative to what you use to establish an axial plane.

Yes, some people naturally have better 3d spatial awareness. You can also train your eyes to be better over time. I work in orthotics and prosthetics and have to sculpt positive models of different body parts. We also have to do GAIT analysis where we have to observe the angle of different joints while a patient ambulates.

Some people are just better at it than others starting out, especially if they have prior similar experience. I teach a lot of residents and have noticed that students that have a background in art or construction tend to have a better eye for angles. A lot of it is just practicing by observing different angles compared to something that is known to be square.

I have also trained people who never seem to be able to improve their ability to see angles, which is a big hindrance in their careers. A lot of schools actually have students take a spacial awareness test before students begin studying in the field.
