ParticipantI was working for an aerospace company 2002-2006 before making the move to this more general defense contractor, and it seems (via anecdata from coworkers at both companies) that general defense contracting is not even close to as cyclical as aerospace. My friends in civilian land have a little more job uncertainty in the medium term (companies operating in the commercial realm seem to have layoffs more frequently, probably because they don’t have to get security clearances for new hires.) On the other hand, the fate of the commercial world isn’t as tightly tied to one customer as it is for us. Engineers who prioritize job security should probably try to avoid overspecializing in a field which can’t translate to a commercial position.
It was cool seeing the article give a shout-out to my alma mater.
Participant[quote=mike92104]Does anyone know of a place that sells wine making supplies in San Diego?[/quote]
There are a couple homebrewing supply stores in San Diego, and they also sell winemaking supplies. American Home Brewing Supplies (http://redkart.com/ahbs/contact.shtml) and Home Brew Mart (http://homebrewmart.com/contact.php) are the two I frequent. Home Brew Mart is also a good place to pick up growlers of Ballast Point’s beer.Participant[quote=mike92104]Does anyone know of a place that sells wine making supplies in San Diego?[/quote]

ParticipantInequity aversion is a pretty classic part of game theory and experimental economics. Some of the earliest experiments included the ultimatum game, where one of two parties gets to decide how a sum of money is split, but the other has veto rights (in a veto, neither gets any money.) A purely rational person would always accept a non-zero deal, since they would get a little money rather than no money. But most people (myself included) are likely to reject a deal that’s “too unfair” to punish the other player.
