But motor skills isn't being able to work on motors. Well you need good moor skills to work on motors.

It's physical mechanical thinking that I'm mainly interested in, not the ability to connect object X to Y in a motor skillfully with tools. I find that 'mechanical thinking' (the ability to mentally visualize how devices like the internals of motors move in relation to linked parts) easily translates to control system electronics and programming if you understand the electrical force and program object data relationships in systems in terms of mechanical forces, movements and time. Most classical mechanical force relationships have almost exact electrical analogies when you look at the electrical energy movement in electronic devices even at the micro scale so I'm looking for the type of brain that can tell from one particular tick in a valve train what's likely wrong in that engine.

Once we get that person we can teach/guide them how to be creative in a job but still maintain a logical, mechanical basis for that creativity.

Funny... what you've described is exactly the work I do. I design custom mechanisms, along with their corresponding controllers, interfaces and necessary software. Plus I have to personally assemble and calibrate everything myself.

 

@spinnaker, you should sue these guys for trademark infringement:

Dubbed Spiking Neural Network Architecture, or SpiNNaker, the computer powerhouse is located at the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom, and it "rethinks the way conventional computers work,"

 

That is one of the reasons I encouraged my Sons interest in Combat robotics, I miss Battlebots and robot Wars.

These make good sense to me if you need a structure near your lake property up in Minnesota. Within a stone's throw of an interstate? Not so much.

 

With no real or good isolation for low/ high temperatures I would not even think of using them.

Spent way too many hours in hot weather stuffing containers.

They look appealing but no, thanks.

The guys here do frame the interior and foam insulate.

 

Maybe I am predisposed but the few office rooms (mostly in USA) built in containers I met, had too strong air conditioners but you could feel the heat coming from the ceiling. I am not the best one to judge.

Besides that, not sure about final costs.

 

you could feel the heat coming from the ceiling

that could be fixed with a couple of layers of insulation, I'm sure...

 

A tree or two is a great heat shield.

Online donations are streaming in for a Maywood high school music teacher who was arrested after a video went viral showing him punching a 14-year-old student in the face after the boy used a racial epithet and threw a basketball at him.

The fight Friday in the Maywood Academy High School classroom led to the arrest of teacher Marston Riley, 64, who is black, on suspicion of child abuse. Detectives with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s Special Victims Bureau are investigating.

Why should anyone support this guy? He beat a child. I don't care what the kid did. A teacher should have more self control.

It was wrong but every person has limits to the abuse they can take. Teaching in the LA school district at 64 must mean he really needs a job.

I agree, there's a limit to everything before things get physical.

 

A friend of mine sent me this, some of you may have read it before, here goes anyway...

And yet the list is missing the one heteronym that most people would probably come up with first: If you *read* a lot, you will become well *read*.

EDIT: Corrected the term used: heterograph -> heteronym. Thanks to spinnaker for pointing it out.

 

That one in particular drives me nuts. Thank you for mentioning it.

Read is a hetronym. A hetrogrpahs are words that sound the same, but are spelled differently Their and there, to, to and two ( a triple) your and you're (sort of).

You're right -- I didn't look back at the article to confirm I was using the correct word (and the words make sense, I just didn't think about it closely enough). Although I'm pretty sure that it's "hetero..." and not "hetro...".
