Does anyone have pics of what the inside of one of these would have looked like?
Looked like? They are still around.. https://www.rwjf.org/en/insights/blog/2018/01/creating-a-com...

You know your competition also has that 30% efficiency gain??? Sounds like a good time for them to catch up.
I didn't wear cleats until I was almost 14 playing baseball.. I just used tennis shoes.. some of my friends gave me a hard time about it. I could hit dingers all day so no big deal.
But you know what. I wore a helmet at every at bat. Did I really need it for every at bat?? No; But I had it.
There's a long list of dead people who went into the wilderness or hiking under prepared. Just because it didn't happen to you doesn't mean the same outcome for others.. I know this is supposed to be a metaphor for when to buy and upgrade the tools you have. But safety should always come first.
Rails gives you the tools to do much of this already.
For example, this:
html_slice :stuff do
h1 'hello world' # @html_slice[:default] << '<h1>hello world</h1>'
text # @html_slice[:default] << '<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</p>'
div do
_ '<b> some raw html </b>'
end
end
safe_join([
tag.h1('Hello world'),
tag.p('Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet'),
tag.div(<<~RAW.html_safe)
<b>some raw html</b>
RAW
])Yah I think html_slice would be ok in a ruby only project. But as the mantra goes if in rails do it the rails way. Helpers are great!

With sqlite and docker.. rails apps are easy to share.. my last project is easy to install and use because of rails https://github.com/ThinkThinkAI/ThinkDB
# change directory_on_your_machine_for_think_db_storage docker run -d --name thinkdb -p 3000:3000 -v directory_on_your_machine_for_think_db_storage:/app/storage thinkthinkai/think_db:latest
TADA.. Rails is great.
doom is deterministic so does not make a good choice for a captcha.. that being said.. this is cute

Sure there is. It's a ratio of inputs to outputs.. even in the example the inputs and outputs are measurable.
The only thing this article gets at is that engineers may not know how to calculate their own productivity; but it doesn't means it's not calculable.
From the article:
> Birney and McCaffrey were arrested in 2018 over the alleged theft of material used in the documentary from Northern Ireland's police ombudsman and claimed they were subject to covert surveillance before and after the release of the film.
The PSNI overreacted in this case over concerns that information was leaking from the police regulator. Keep in mind that at the time of the documentary's release, the Royal Ulster Constabulary (the PSNI's predecessor organisation) was undertaking a massive decades-long counter-terrorist operation that involved suppressing terrorist organisations on both sides of the conflict, and that many of these terrorist organisations still exist and remain heavily involved in organised crime.
While the PSNI acted illegally in these raids, it's easy to see that their motivation stemmed from a need to investigate any leaks, which, if they had existed, would almost certainly have put lives (informants) at risk.
It's not always some grand conspiracy. At least in the UK, it's usually honest people doing their best and getting it wrong.
The Peelers have historically not been known for their honesty when interacting with Catholics. Racism serves as an institutional tool for harassment and the justification of power over certain groups. There is no genuine honesty in these practices, even if they are ostensibly used to prevent violence.
I mean.. they are really nice soap dispensers.
