How frequently do you grapple with the intricate task of harmonizing the metrics utilized to gauge the success of AI initiatives with the fundamental aspirations of your organization, bearing in mind the potential pitfalls of Goodhart's Law? --...
atWATER PRESSURE BOOSTER PUMP Well recovery rate, yield, flow rate: if the building water supply stops and takes minutes to hours to recover, you may have problem with the well flow rate. But the problem of lost water supply and pressure could be more mechanical: a bad well pump. ...
you can determine the depth of water from a pressure gauge reading. In the example above, having an accurate pressure gauge in the tank's down pipe at ground level would allow you to calculate the water's height above ground without a tape measure. This would save you a long climb up a...
Urine tests for alcohol proved to be just as impractical in the field as blood sampling. What was needed was a way to measure something related to BAC without invading a suspect's body. In the 1940s, breath alcohol testing devices were first developed for use by police. In 1954, Dr. ...
receivers, mains, and piping. With no demand on the system, except leakage, bring the system up to its normal operating pressure (P1, in psig). Select a second pressure (P2, about half the value of P1) and measure the time (T, in minutes) it takes for the system to drop to P2....
Set your goals for your loyalty programme and consider the methods you can use to measure its success. This can be as simple as sending out a survey to gauge customer satisfaction with the new rewards programme, or a deep dive into more technical statistics like yo...
