    @tim I shall go and visit Mr Stubbs today (although he isn't a Stubbs anymore).

    I thought we were getting a bit off topic but actually the Australian Beef Compendium, whilst perhaps not quite awesome, is at least very informative.

    If anyone wants Johnson and Calkins original papers on profiling beef muscles, I can upload them.

    Spain's new submarine 'too big for its dock'

    The original problem with the submarine dates back to 2013, when it was discovered that it was about 100 tons heavier than it needed to be.

    That caused a problem for its buoyancy - so it could submerge, but might not come back up again.

    A former Spanish official told the Associated Press at the time that someone had put a decimal point in the wrong place, and "nobody paid attention to review the calculations".That mistake cost a reported €14m while engineers and consultants figured out that buoyancy could be improved by lengthening the boat.

    @donsteppa That really is good.

    "so it could submerge, but might not come back up again."

    Meeting:
    "We need to design something that can sink"
    "Right, got it"
