  • A relay switch could work. You would put the car 12V and ground across the coil connections, the 12V on the NO connection, the panel on the NC connection, and the power pack on the C connection. Make sure you get a 12VDC relay.

    Are you going to have the panel installed permanently on your car?

    Definitely don’t connect a 24V source directly to your cars 12V system. There’s a good chance of frying something important. A fuse would not protect from overvoltage so don’t rely on those to protect components.

    If an upvote is an “I like this” button, then it’s bad UX design to expect people to not use the downvote as an “I don’t like this button.” If there needs to be an “off topic” button then it shouldn’t be styled and placed to look like the exact opposite of the “I like this” button.







  • The portrayal of sexism that Samantha Carter and other female military members face is actually an overall positive part of the shows writing. They highlight how problematic it is and Dr. Samantha Carter continues to rise through the ranks as her accomplishments are recognized by the good leadership that she serves with. She is far from a token character and she provides some of the most significant contributions to the team.

    So that issue you have does get better. I would argue that the writing overall is rather progressive for the time.

    Feel free to not like the show though. It can be a bit hokey. Not everyone enjoys cheesy sci-fi.




  • The threat of lawsuit is usually enough to get an employment offer rescinded. It’s rare for a company to want to take on a legal defense just to hire someone new. Even though they weren’t actually legally binding, non-competes still limited options for a lot of people.

    Overall I agree with you that this isn’t as big of a deal as people make it sound, but it’s easy underestimate their influence if only looking at the result of cases that go to trial. In many situations, the damage is done well before a case can go to trial.

    When I worked on a dairy farm I had to replace my leather boots every 9 months because the moisture and manure broke the leather down.

    Leather that is kept dry is very resistant to rot, leather that is allowed to stay wet is not.
