![]() ![]() You can feel mediocre because you wrongfully compare your progress and success against outliers like Minecraft. ![]() Let's take game development as one example. I think it's a little more complicated than that. In other words, don't worry too much about it. You can just as easily be an expert or prodigy toiling away in obscurity as you can a celebrity with few skills to speak of. ![]() Maybe they had a good team, maybe they put in a stupid amount of time, maybe they simply had the right idea at the right point in time. Many people who were 'average' in a field ended up doing really well in it regardless. Most people are average, and for any one thing you're interested in, there will almost always be many millions of others who are either better or worse than you at it.Īnd hey, you don't have to be 'great' or even 'good' at something to be successful in it. The top percentage of people in a field are overrepresented online and even then, they mostly only post about the things going well in their lives. If you're making a game, you might end up judging your worth in comparison to say, the makers of Minecraft or Pokemon GO.īut keep in mind that these are outliers by default. If you're a web developer, it can seem like the majority of developers are experts in every one of the latest trendy languages and frameworks and that you suck for not being like that. If you're an entrepreneur, it can feel like everyone's making millions off their startup ideas and that anyone who isn't is a failure. Social media and the internet has made it incredibly easy to see the various people out there who are in the top of their league at any particular hobby, vocation or activity, and made it seem like that's the 'norm'. social media ensures we're constantly exposed to the highlight reel of people's lives and that's leaving some feeling like they're not quite making the most of their time on this mortal coil.

![]() Type-TL and SL fuses are considered to be regular duty fuses. Non-removable adapters are shown to convert Type-T sockets to Type-S plug fuse sockets.įuse manufacturers developed plug fuses with time-delay characteristics to compete with new circuit breakers. Newer, Type-S plug fuses have non-interchangeable porcelain threads. The use of porcelain threads prevented the use of conductive objects like pennies from bypassing the fuse link. The new fuse amperage sizes were not interchangeable in the fuse sockets. The fuse threads are identical to a standard medium-base light bulb.Īs a result of these deficiencies, a new Type-S, plug fuse design evolved and was required by newer electrical codes (below). ![]() Type-T fuses can be interchanged regardless of amp ratings. The problem with this design was that any amperage size fuse could be interchanged with the others in the “fuse cabinet.” In addition, a copper penny fit perfectly in the bottom of this socket and could be used to bypass the protective fuse link when fuses blew due to overloading. ![]() The Type-T plug fuse was originally manufactured with screw shell threads identical to the threads used in a light bulb socket (shown below). Plug fuses must be sized correctly by the owner throughout the life of the building to prevent overheating of branch-circuit conductors. Early plug fuse designs allowed for indiscriminate interchanging of fuses regardless of proper amp ratings. The most common protected branch circuit sizes are 15 amp (AWG #14) and 20 amp (AWG #12).Īlthough plug fuses work well when properly sized, building owners usually lack the knowledge to maintain the proper fuse sizing over time. Plug fuses were commonly used for overcurrent protection prior to modern-day circuit breakers. Proper plug fuse usage helps to avoid overheated wires and potential electrical fires. This quick review should help you to understand plug fuses and their proper application. Owners are sometimes confused about the different amp ratings and types of plug fuses that are installed in the fuse box or nearby for use as spares. Plug fuses are still found in many older homes and businesses. ![]() Before breakers were the standard, homes and facilities were built with fuse boxes that contained plug fuses. ![]() ![]() Masquerade has many guess-the-verb puzzles, but none too aggravating. You play a female protagonist who is a feminist before her time, the 1800's, trying to decide on her future. The game gets high marks for its very detailed gameworld, strong writing, and multifacted characters. Masquerade is an excellent story-based IF set in Civil-War era romance genre- something not commonly seen since Amy Brigg/Infocom's mildly successful Plundered Hearts. This accusation was caused by several people from the Nexon team who were working on P3 leaving and joining Ironmace. ![]() ![]() This case began when Nexon accused Ironmace of stealing assets from a game they were working on with the codename P3. ![]() Then, how exactly about this case?
