I'm not sure how it could be extrapolated to a more general case...
Well, why not watch the video then?

And for those decrying the use of video, you'll definitely want to check out Up and Down the Ladder of Abstraction by the same author: http://worrydream.com/LadderOfAbstraction/
It's a big wall of text with interactive javascript examples and no video.

The range of human skin color is quite close to the range of wood color.

Let's say you put out a bid for a 250 page website to be built and I submit a quote of $2500 to create the site, stating that I will personally be doing all of the work. Would you come back to me and say "Sorry, your price is attractive but I've calculated that your effective wage is too low and your working conditions aren't up to my standards. In order to make a livable wage under decent working conditions, I propose that I pay you $25,000 instead."?

As long as your role pays you for being accessible. The rates vary but should be between 10% to 20% of your hourly pay for the hours you're on call. For example, if you make $50/hour normally you should be getting at least $5/hour for being on call. Think of it like being a babysitter. Most times they just sit around and watch TV or do their homework or chat with their boyfriend. But it's the chance of there something going wrong that they're paid for. I hope you're getting paid for being around in case something goes wrong too.

Sure there is. Charge time.
What's the charge time for turning this dead cow into a liter of gas?

Then I guess you'll have to do it as a mental exercise rather than packing 10^80 lunches for the voyage.

You mean to tell me that after such careful thought into the practicality of the voyage, you have no concerns about the fact that you'd turn to dust long before you made any significant progress on the journey?

I get that. My tongue-in-cheek response was because it had absolutely nothing to do with what I wrote.

And, as a disinterested third party, *I'm* glad people are so quick to take offense to obvious sarcasm.

Thanks, Hank. I might need to pick up a new model; mine must be on the fritz.

You mean if they search along the circumference of the universe for Shakespeare? What a strange notion. Or perhaps you replied to the wrong post.
