1）需要换 high-pressure pump
2）需要修漏油:修air diverter valve和timing cover
3）需要换前后闸的pads and rotors

Boeing Dreamliner's Lithium-Ion Battery Fails On United Flight To Paris
A United Airlines Boeing 787 experienced a lithium-ion battery failure on
approach to Charles de Gaulle Airport on November 13. United Flight 915 was
at the end of a seven-hour flight from Washington's Dulles Airport when
pilots received a warning that the main battery was overheating. United
spokesman Charles Hobart confirmed the event, which was first reported by
the Aviation Herald.

发帖数: 127 | 3 第一次去dealer那儿，都是这个待遇。包括最后卖给我的 OTD = MSRP - 1000 （混动
车，2019 Camry LE Hybrid 最简单配置, 很多dealer确实没有存货，比较难砍价）。
他们有专门的销售培训第一次给你quote MSRP + TTL，我买车的时候，小二还很诚实，
确认了我的这一个推测。
个人经历，网上quote的longgo经历很好, 直接给出了OTD = MSPR - 300（免费
delivery到家）.如果自取，还可以再减 200。 还算比较想卖车的，
我最近买车前后花了两个小时，顺便上门拜访的dealer,基本航都是quote 接近MSRP +
TTL。理由都是杠杠的，厂家没有折扣，这个车很流行，存货不多，。。。。 越牛逼的
dealer,我就越逗他玩，我给你个价格 OTD = MSRP - 3500，你卖不卖。这个价格当然
不可能卖，我走。废话都没有，不用浪费时间。
然后往上轰炸了一番，又一个dealer OTD = MSRP - 400. 因为想买车，就懒得往下狠
狠砍价了。然后就 OTD = MSRP - 900，告诉他们firm, ... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 486 | 7 楼主是做理论的，他就完全可以只专心作理论并可以做得很好，在不需wet lab的前提

这里涉及到一个做科学的哲学问题。由于我不知道楼主做啥的，我用生物领域里的
bioinformatics 举例说明。
做 Bioinformatics的完全可以不用 wet lab 并可以做得非常好，他们可以拿自己的
R01 （比如全是 cancer genomic analysis) 也可以和做 biology 的一起拿。他们可
以发自己领域的 top journals, 也可以和做 biology 的合作一起发 co-

ambitious), 还要开 wet lab, 希望从生物信息分析中产生 hypothesis，然后
biology （原本合作的这一部分）一路做到底通吃。但术业有专攻，想 computational

nowadays, unless the phoenix-man just can't wipe off the impression of
lacking food from his his childhood

发帖数: 2228 | 15 你为什么会觉得搞笑呢？
我以前的航班也出现过机组人员overbook的问题，也是因为换班延误了起飞
机组人员不能工作超过12个小时，不然很容易受伤或出错，他们出错的结果是乘客的
人身安全
有时候他们是临时调配的，所以时间不一定完全能搭到，这就有可能必须要换班
有时候因为天气或者其他原因，该来交班的人赶不过来，在乘客看来算是航空公司的
失误，但是也是为了大家安全负责的表现
反正是国内来的航班，大家都是要去底特律的，父母随大流就对了 |
