I'm guessing here but I think the joke is that they wouldn't have been eaten had they got it from engineering.

Why would civil engineers laugh at that architecture school joke?

because architects are kind of "designing" a house with emphasis on good looks while engineers emphasize the "hard facts" like static. thus the engineers look down on the architects like they have no clue how to build a stable house.

Most architects are also stupid with blueprints that are usually inaccurate but looks beautiful because they plugged in all the numbers and then manually tweaked it to make it look nicer and suddenly the engineers are trying to figure out why nothing's fitting together.

In English the tilde symbol (~) is usually used to mean "approximately equal" or "roughly".

i.e. I will be there by ~3pm
I am the Town Medic.

Can you clarify? Most cars don't display acceleration, they have a speedometer and RPM meters (along with fuel meters and battery meters).

Cars RPMs will typically idle from 600-1000, which might look like .5 or 1 on your meter if you ignore the x1000 on it. RPM is just a measure of how fast the engine is spinning though, and when you start your car, the engine spins, even if you aren't moving.


yes thanks i was reffering to the RPM meter....my knowledge of cars is 0


It's actual name is an odometer tachometer. As Tephus said, it measures the rate at which your engine turns. When I first turn my car on, it has a higher than normal RPM by design so that the engine warms up faster (somewhere around 2k RPM) - this lasts longer in the winter than it would in the summer, understandably. But once it's up to temp, it idles at a more normal rate (~.5k-.75k)

No......
odometer measures mileage (or kilometers whatever, distance traveled). Tachometer is what you are looking for there. (measures rpm)

Do we know if all organisms on Earth experience time at the same rate? Like, what if we humans experience time at the speed of time because our brains all work with the same chemical reactions, but an octopus or an alien from outer space might experience time at half the speed we do, allowing them to have double the consciousness amount than we do in the same amount of time. What if flies work the same, and this is why they are so good at dodging us when we try to swat at them - because they have twice the consciousness so their reaction time is a lot quicker.

Maybe this can answer the question: http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/small-animals-live-in-a-slow-motion-world/
It seems that if you are an animal that can process information faster, then time will seem to move more slowly for you. The way I see it, time is constant and if you can process more information in the same amount of time, then time will be perceived to be moving slower for you.

Is there a specific/technical word or phrase for the money a company pays out to their employees, then the employees spend on the companies products?

Actually is not a matter of our brains, but a matter of nature or physics if u prefer. The more smaller the life form/object the more slower will experience time.

My anaconda dont want none... u know the rest
