There's a booth in a consignment shop in town that has a load of old high carbon steel Case scissors of different sizes. Resale shops may be the way to go.
Why would we need more nickels? Transactions will end up being rounded to the nearest nickel, which will end up being a dime on one side or a nickel on the other as the smallest necessary coin. Seems like it all evens out.
The only logical argument I can imagine is that people are using stacks of 5 pennies now routinely instead of nickels. But personally I never see that happening.
When did you see Harris push that in her campaign? Her campaign was extremely basic and as uncontroversial as possible (to the detriment of the dems in my opinion)
I've always heard the opposite. That biological sex is biological. Gender is socially constructed. That's the standard progressive position, although I'm sure you can find someone that says otherwise, or in casual usage conflates sex and gender.
It depends on the number of PIDs and the speed of the data acquisition system. When I worked on the RS-25 engine project the engine had hundreds of PIDs, the low speed DAS was 250 samples per second, and the high speed DAS was 250,000 sps. The high speed DAS generated so much data that it was only started a few seconds before engine start so the recorders wouldn't fill up before the end of the tests (which were typically 500 seconds).
EDIT: something to add is that not ever PID was tied into the high speed DAS–only a couple-few dozen important PIDs.
> Then it was abandoned. In the 1980s, convinced that tough antitrust enforcement was holding back American business, the Reagan administration set about dismantling it. The Robinson-Patman Act remained on the books, but the new regime saw it as an economically illiterate handout to inefficient small businesses. And so the government simply stopped enforcing it.
I'm going to need more meat than this. Was there a memo that went out detailing that this statutory law will no longer be enforced? Did no succeeding FTC Chair or Attorney General think to pick up the torch?
