I fully get this and think its an excellent piece of work. Have you considered interfacing into Warehouse Management in order to provide dimensioned arbitrary pallet heights ? In other words to inform the put away process in warehousing ?

While you are at it can you filter out posts to subscription only sites eg economist NYT $&c. We're all here to escape click bait

So there are three : PYREX borosilicate glass lab equipment, pyrex soda-lime glass cookware, and Pyrex borosilicate glass cookware made in France. Another childhood illusion shattered.....

I like it ! Its not hard core tasking but ideal for those of us with busy dad syndrome. It would be nice if the day picker was check box or radio buttons rather than a pull down.

This post starts with " Software that controls (nuclear) power plants, elections, pacemakers, airplanes, bridges, heavy machinery " and proceeds to list pracitises you should apply to, say, shopify or facebook. Those practises are no where near robust enough for industrial software. Such is the degree of risk adversity that the use cases above can run on out of date hardware and ancient software, and change is deplored in favour of workarounds. Why is that ? Well engineers see risk differently to us - they will attempt to remediate all risk, whereas we will mitigate that risk. That mitigation is the substance of the post, and I have no quibble with that, but to assume that is best practise for my ICD is naive. The author proposes that doing what we do well is sufficient, whereas we need to shift our thinking to a world in which we are in complete control.
