Thanks to Carlos Ghosn we’re still stuck with the same GTR after nearly 20 years.

The hated Chicken Tax is preventing us from getting the good vehicles

Right, but what separates this from Totino’s chopped peps is that Hormel is selling the ribbons out to the International Pizza Expo, where you’re going to see a lot of robot pizzaiolos on display this year, as in previous years.

a Windsor-style pie must feature canned mushrooms (yes, canned!)

So, at what point are we going to decide to go back to investing in trains and other forms of mass transit? Has anyone ever been to Japan, South Korea, or China to see how they get things done?

“We asked ourselves, what if pepperoni could be handled and applied like shredded mozzarella cheese? [...] in the end, ribbons emerged as the solution that best addressed these operator pain points [...]”

Slap Boeing with a massive fine if it makes people feel better, and just fix the problems.

Used 4Runners are another good option. I picked up a Limited with less than 80K miles on the odometer for $40K. Towing capacity up to 5000 lbs, other trims available to be more capable on the trails. Fuel economy somewhere between a Sienna and a Land Cruiser.

Cost cutting strikes again!

maybe they will make cutting pineapples at home a little less difficult

My only knock on these juicy steak fingers is that the breading isn’t very crispy. But is it supposed to be?

Cost cutting strikes again!

I don’t see how the effort is worth the supposed gain.

If you can’t perfect your silly product without beta testing on public streets, then too bad.

How many Boeing engineers does it take to screw in a light bulb?

An increasing amount of restaurant sales are just pickup orders from Door Dash and Uber Eats. Of course you’re not going to get much interaction for those.

If all these MBAs truly want subscriptions for cars, then this is the wrong way to do it.

Ok, now drive it into a pond and see if you can break the windows while fully submerged.

The reason they test on public roads is because self-driving cars can’t learn anything new from continuing to be driven on closed circuits. The problem of self-driving alone and without other traffic was solved long ago, the cars can safely navigate any pre-defined route if there are no obstructions or other traffic.

Why did cost cutting against the wishes of engineers become a normalized and acceptable way of increasing profits at engineering companies? Why do engineering companies not care about meeting the needs of the customer as a means to increasing their profits?
