  • Not too lazy to read the article, I think its a stupid feature. For decades industries have managed with high skill employees and manual torque wrenches. Somehow logging torque specs in a data base is going to solve problems or being able to remotely access said data base to make sure the tourque setting is correct? How about hire competent people with the right skills and give them the time they need to do a good job. How about having floor supervisors that actually know, and have done the job they’re overseeing to regularly check the torque specs. Boeing QC and safety has been on a downhill slide for decades, right around the time that the merger with McDonnell Douglas happened.


  • Why the fuck does someone need a wrench connected to the internet in the first place?

    I went appliance shopping recently and the salesman tried to get me on board with a WiFi connected fridge, his sales pitch was that I’ll get a push notification on my phone when the air or water filter need to be changed, and there’s a camera so if I’m at the store and I can’t remember if I need to buy milk, I can open the camera app and view the inside of my fridge and see my milk level. GTFO, not everything needs to have an app or internet service.
