| 20:40.55 | Migs | I would personally prefer a channel where people ONLY talk for one hour a day, then the rest is silent. I like peace and quiet. |
| 20:49.53 | eightyeight | i could /quiet youtah. would that work Migs? |
| 20:52.36 | eightyeight | https://github.com/atoponce/webpassgen/commit/f0b764473e20e9157ded9e4f223cc4b83a224d61 |
| 20:53.27 | Migs | holy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBSYJeODukg |
| 20:54.59 | eightyeight | yeah. saw that this morning. |
| 20:55.01 | eightyeight | i can't watch it again |
| 20:55.24 | eightyeight | worst nightmare skiing realized |
| 20:56.55 | youtah | I was explaining to my co-workers that the engine had broken, and the weight of everyone on the left side was pulling it down (hence why it slows down at the end) |
| 20:58.00 | eightyeight | the only way that would be valid, is if there was more mass on one side of the lift than the other |
| 20:58.09 | eightyeight | but that would explain why they were going backward rather than forward |
| 20:58.16 | youtah | When I was working at Brighton, (i never got to see them) but the lifties described huge manual calipers that would brake the wheel |
| 20:59.25 | eightyeight | although, i guess all it takes is one or two people to leave the lift without others getting on, to create that imbalance |
| 20:59.40 | RyanE | by definition, the 'down' side is almost always empty. |
| 20:59.43 | youtah | well, and I suspect it started out going backwards rather slowly |
| 20:59.50 | eightyeight | ah fair. |
| 21:00.04 | youtah | it wasn't until it really got going that people started to record |
| 21:00.13 | RyanE | now, on a gondola lift in the summer, you'd have closer parity. |
| 21:00.19 | eightyeight | wouldn't there be brakes on both ends? |
| 21:00.25 | RyanE | I'd think there should be. |
| 21:00.28 | youtah | I think so |
| 21:00.39 | RyanE | and/or a governor that would not let it get too fast, even if no power. |
| 21:01.23 | eightyeight | curious if safety features were skimped on, in the interest of saving money |
| 21:01.26 | youtah | I'm sure there will be some sort of announcement made after some investigation |
| 21:01.57 | youtah | well, and look at how tiny that lift is |
| 21:02.41 | youtah | versus say, the Snake Creek lift at Brighton https://www.google.com/maps/@40.5945151,-111.5770064,167a,35y,89.06h,17.78t/data=!3m1!1e3 |
| 21:03.03 | youtah | it's like a whole house of mechanical loud things (i wasn't allowed to go into it) on top |
| 21:03.56 | RyanE | Ah... 'country' of Georgia... I was thinking GA, US didn't get that much snow... |
| 21:04.03 | RyanE | also better explains the lack of safety... |
| 21:04.48 | eightyeight | are they known for being lax on safety regulations? |
| 21:05.18 | RyanE | well, I kind of assume any former-Soviet countries are somewhat more lax than the US. |
| 21:05.55 | eightyeight | yet, we just had a pedestrian bridge in FL collapse, killing people... |
| 21:06.04 | youtah | Assumption here. Snow Skiing in the USA is probably a much much much larger industry than in Georgia. Several more ski resorts. So I would suspect that we'd have (through probably a lot of trial and error) more regulations? |
| 21:06.12 | RyanE | not the brightest to be allowing traffic during a load stress test. |

| 21:07.05 | youtah | wait |
| 21:07.12 | youtah | are you serious? is that what caused it to fail? |
| 21:07.15 | RyanE | I have no idea how large the Georgian (country) skiing industry is... |
| 21:07.26 | RyanE | youtah: That's what I saw on Twitter, so take it for what it's worth. |
| 21:07.58 | SunSparc | ~Twitter |
| 21:07.58 | infobot | [twitter] a popular microblogging site |
| 21:08.20 | youtah | Well, the State of Georgia has 3X the population of Georgia the Country |
| 21:08.20 | RyanE | "Officials confirmed the bridge over Miami's Tamiami Trail near Florida International University was undergoing a stress test. If not executed with exact precision, such tests can cause a bridge to fail." |
| 21:08.32 | RyanE | but a lot less skiing, I'd bet. |
| 21:14.21 | youtah | Goergia has 6 ski resorts total, for a total coverage of 88km of slopes, with a combined total of 39 lifts. |
| 21:14.24 | youtah | Georgia |
| 21:15.00 | youtah | Here's the list for the US |
| 21:15.00 | youtah | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ski_areas_and_resorts_in_the_United_States |
| 21:15.03 | SunSparc | Any programmers in here looking for work? |
| 21:15.59 | youtah | The US has 522 ski resorts covering 11,362 km of slopes with a total of 2,697 lifts. |
| 21:16.05 | SunSparc | youtah: Wow! There are a lot more than I thought there were. |
| 21:16.31 | youtah | SunSparc, I know someone who is looking to get into programming that is really Junior |
| 21:16.39 | youtah | like, really really Junior |
| 21:17.09 | SunSparc | youtah: Tell them to keep gaining experience. :) |
| 21:17.36 | SunSparc | We are looking for at least mid-level programmers. |
