Yeah, these would do numbers at the ren faire. I'm giggling about how her boobs come in like the nose of the star destroyer in A New Hope

I low-key love the fact that sci-fi has so conditioned us to expect to be hanging out with a bunch of cool space aliens, that legitimate, actual scientists keep proposing the most bizarre, three-blunts-into-the-rotation "theories" to explain the fact we're not.

Some of my favourites include:

Zoo Theory: What if there are loads of aliens out there, but they're not talking to us because of the Prime Directive from Star Trek? (Or because they're doing experiments on us???)

Dark Forest Theory: What if there are loads of aliens out there, but they all hate us and each other so they're all just waiting with a shotgun pointed at the door, ready to open fire on anything that moves?

Planetarium Theory: What if there's at least one alien with mastery over light and matter that's just making it seem to us that the universe is empty to us as, like, a joke?

Berserker Theory: What if there were loads of aliens, but one of them made infinite killer robots that murdered everyone and are coming for us next?!!

Like, the universe is at least 13,700,000,000 years old and 46,000,000,000 light years big. We have had the ability to transmit and receive signals for, what, 100 years, and our signals have so far travelled 200 light years?

The fact is biological life almost certainly has, does, or will develop elsewhere in the universe, and it's not impossible that a tiny amount of it has, does, or will develop in a way that we would understand as "intelligent". But, like, we're realistically never going to know because of the scale of the things involved.

So I'm proposing my own hypothesis. I call it the "Fool in a Field" hypothesis. It goes like this:

Humanity is a guy standing in the middle of a field at midnight. It's pitch black, he can't move, and he's been standing there for ages. He's just had the thought to swing his arms. He swings one of his arms, once, and does not hit another person. "Oh no!" He says. "Robots have killed them all!"

Predictive Maintenance as a Service for Cement Industry: An Overview

The cement manufacturing industry is one of the oldest and most critical manufacturing industries for the global civilization. It has witnessed unparalleled growth at the heart of most economic developments and international growth this decade. Fortune Insights report says, the global cement market will grow from $326.80 billion in 2021 to $458.64 billion in 2028, a steep 5.1% globally. It is then no wonder that cement plants face pressure for process and asset maintenance.

Predictive Maintenance checklist for cement industry:

Extractors: Used to Quarry the raw materials, i.e. limestone & clay

Crushers used to crush high rock piles into coarse powders called raw meal

Blenders & Mixers mix the crushed raw meal in the right proportions

Grinders to further grind the raw material to free different minerals in the ore

A rotary kiln where the raw meal is heated up to 1450 degrees & then cooled

Assembly belts & conveyors to carry the cement for packing & dispatching to customers

These processes & machines need to occur in tandem, without intervals, to create high-quality cement. Unplanned downtime in even one of these machines can unleash havoc on the ongoing process, not just endangering efficiency & quality but also health & safety of personnel on-site.

How can Predictive Maintenance as a Service help?

With the stakes so high and a constantly changing environment, real-time machine diagnostics are necessary to empower plant managers with the correct data. IIoT can enable this by enabling a 360-degree view of interconnected assets across the plant. Predictive maintenance as a service allows plant managers in cement managers to move away from reactive measures like reactive maintenance and preventive maintenance to a predictive one, where critical machines don’t have to be pulled down unless there is a specific anomaly. At a grass root level, predictive maintenance as a service by IU for cement plants can be implemented by putting sensors at strategic positions on the machines. Vibration analysis of mechanical equipment components like Air Compressors, Belt drives or Conveyors, Fans and blowers, Kiln rollers, Motor bearings & Vertical and horizontal mills can help predict anomalies. The Predictive Maintenance as a service solution by Infinite Uptime involves collecting data, analysis & computing of the triaxial vibrations, temperature and noise of the mechanical equipment on edge at real-time via a patented edge computing system. The data then is monitored & analyzed in real-time, and a machine health score is assigned. A machine with a lower health score is flagged to the plant supervisor or plant engineer with a diagnostic assessment of the probable cause for the anomaly and a recommendation on improving the same. Not just that, if not considered severe yet, but still significant; the fault is continuously monitored, with relevant parameters like temperature, vibration etc., to assure that it does not aggravate the status quo. This information can be made available in real-time to the appropriate people at their fingertips. An access-based dashboard ensures that you get access to the most relevant machine data for the plant from single machine access for a plant operator to multiple machines across the plant access for a plant head and a multi-plant machine score for a manufacturing head. Let’s look at a case study around how we helped a top Indian cement manufacturer reduce 250 hours of downtime.

i like that the two genres of star wars fanart are like “hey imagine if literally nothing bad ever happened and nobody died and life was sunshine and rainbows and happiness” or “hey remember when everyone died and was sad? think about that more”
