Phanatic posted:But they do graphically illustrate what the text says. If you don't know what vertical or horizontal mean, the arrows show you. That's a good graphic. What do the arrows at 45 degrees show you next to the range of the aircraft? Nothing. It can move up to 772 spaces diagonally.

Bar graph where the bars are triangles and the data is the height so a small increase in height results in a large increase in area, which is irrelevant, but makes the data feel bigger. For an even more advanced technique, use pyramids.

All the really cutting edge stuff was still pretty close to the border. I guess you can't really get highly qualified professionals and universities to move to bumfuck nowhere just in case there's an invasion.

Subjunctive posted:Yeah, I really hate NPS. I’ve seen it do a lot of damage to companies, teams, and people, and earlier in my career I was complicit in managing to NPS as a metric I didn’t take the time to look at critically. I am trying to atone. I have multiple researchers in my division working on better ways to track word-of-mouth impact because I don’t want NPS to surface in our product even though our customers use it themselves and ask about it. My company just adopted NPS, gently caress.

The Cheshire Cat posted:Wasn't there also a big thing about various people in charge of making the designs were jockeying for political favour, so they'd throw their weight around by demanding specific widgets get added, because their rival also had something added and they can't be outdone? Yeah, the MAN Panther prototype had a waterproof engine compartment that no one asked for, for instance. The inefficiency went both ways. British analysis of the PzIV concluded that someone from the ball bearings industry was handing out kickbacks, since there is no way that the tank needed so many ball bearings.

DarkHorse posted:Bluetooth everything everywhere and offload it to smartphone apps and voice control My Osmo Action had an app for configuration (even though the device itself has a full touch screen, go figure) that stopped working when I updated my Android phone. As an added bonus, I couldn't use the camera at all until I downloaded their app and made an account (even though it does absolutely nothing and doesn't pair with your phone as a part of normal operation). Smartphone apps to do things the device ought to do on its own are a terrible idea since they introduce a pretty significant point of failure.

I like how tanks have a different lethality than cannons, machine guns, and guided missiles. I guess this hypothetical tank fires its main gun while driving over people at the same time? The timeline alone is wild. Development of rifled artillery seems to have stopped before the invention of the tank, I guess the author considers the Mle. 1897 to be the pinnacle of that particular family.
