like today how movies are 6 hours long but only 4 of them are Scorsese jerking off?

previous big Twitter user here, technically, as the replies are threaded, this would be under BoFA > Tweets and replies > the reply we see above > this tweet attached.

not literally "on their wall" but still findable without using a search function from the profile.

most executions are surprisingly brutal and painful. it probably was worse than being stabbed in the neck

I have this card.

I'm an immigrant to the US by way of marriage. When I moved here we opened an account at chase where my now wife banks - a joint for us both and one for me.

When faced with having three near identical blue cards I asked if there was any option other than blue

Imagine my face when I heard possibly the most American phrase I've ever heard: "You can have the brand colors, or Disney"

I guess we have different experiences. My prior experience was ITAM and ITSM procurement and third party maintenance on server equipment, support both sales and field maintenance spares on short term SLAs. And the warehouse robots there were very much calibrated per SKU and per warehouse.

I then moved into the supply chain software space, mostly covering similar supply chain but we've branched out to cover other use cases (fashion, cpg...) but everything we work with has a specific buyer <> supply chain set up.

It's totally understandable that different businesses could have different set ups

ok so I said

  • a packing robot can't change products without reprogramming

you said

  • there are two warehouses you know of that are fully robotic

I said

  • that takes more organization elsewhere though, e.g. supply chain

you said

  • how would supply chain affect the robots

I said

  • by changing the availability of certain products in different stocking locations

if the product has to come from somewhere that isnt one of the two robot warehouses it affects the robots because they aren't being used, if the product is a different shape / size / weight or in different packaging it affects the robots as they have to be recalibrated

edit to say most warehouse robots are more like giant dumpsters that follow a human around and the human puts the products in the dumpster.

see my first reply: a packing robot can only follow directions within certain parameters and if those parameters change, a human can adapt instantly, a robot can't.

You asked how and why it might change and I gave some examples.

I mean the other names make sense with additional context

Both Tit- and Cock- as prefixes used to mean small (no laughing in the back, please)

And Hoary means grey-haired or old-looking

edit as I had to look this one up: "Booby" is an ellision of "Bobo" - as in "No seas tan bobo" (Spanish) - meaning "silly, naive, dumb..." as they tend to be quite tame birds

Just off the top of my head: Stockouts, exceptions, recalls, availability, change in supplier, natural disasters (or similar like the Suez canal blockage), things like cyberattacks, materials shortage or inflation might cause internal or external changes both in your direct supplier or else in the manufacturers supply chain.

Consider also some warehouses are forward stocking and you might run inventory management software to ship from warehouse A while stock is above x% and switch to warehouse B if it falls below that level (or, again, your supplier's supplier might...)

Other products might have multiple ingress points to your supply chain and you have a dedicated buyer who makes changes based on the best price (perishables especially), others might be seasonally affected - either foodstuffs or things like sunglasses, winter coats, inflatable pools, pumpkin spice, christmas decorations... that are seasonable supply
