Holes
I dug three holes, each three feet wide, and one-and-a-half feet deep. Two and half hours of work for a total of thirty dollars gives me twelve dollars an hour (not bad). But I wanted to calculate how much I was paid per volume of dirt (disregarding the rather substantial rocks I had to dig out and move).
So:
Three holes, with a radius of one-and-a-half feet, and a depth of three feet.
πr2h = π(1.5)21.5
3π/2 ft.3 dirt per hole.
Thirty dollars for three holes is ten dollars per hole.
10/(3π/2)=20/(3π) $/ft.3 dirt ≅ 2.122065907891938 $/ft.3 dirt.
I bought David Byrne’s new album, Everything That Happens Will Happen Today online. So far, it is pretty awesome. I wish I had noticed the option to buy it in FLAC as well as MP3, seemingly for no extra charge, but I didn’t. Oh well. I did buy the vinyl package, so in a few days I will receive the album on vinyl, which is going to be great.
Chinese food approaches. As does bimetallism.
