Re: Swedish ASIC miner company kncminer.com

ok, might be as you stated out. so Day1 is then Friday and Day2 Monday, right?

Why do people wait until Sunday to buy their Sunday newspaper instead of picking it up when the printer closes at 5:30 or so friday evening?

Or don't you have Sunday papers where you come from?

Why wait for morning to get your morning paper, instead of picking it up from the printer at 5:30 the evening before when the printer closes?

Sheesh! Capital machinery is like bitcoin mining rigs, you pay 24/7 interest on the capital it took to get the damn things, you think everyone is going to run it 8 hours a day, 5 days a week?

Day 1 is presumably the first day the machines are pouring out rigs into courier trucks and day two the second day the machines are pouring out rigs into courier trucks.

Maybe day 1 starts at midnight tonight... But midnight by where's timezone? Maybe it is already midnight somewhere!

Newspapers aren't assembled by hand. Rolls of paper go into the press and bundles of papers roll out into the loading bay. I served my apprenticeship in the newspaper press business. They are picked up and delivered late Saturday night in some cases too which is why they are on news progs on telly late Saturday night.. The machinery producing the boards will run 24/7 from the start of production until it's all done with no day1 or day 2 and no stopping except for breakdown and maintenance if needed ...that's just a line in the sand for us that doesn't matter at all at their end as long as the right numbers can be produced to ship what they promised on day1 and day2. If you got a day2 order on day1 which is likely for someone ..you'd care less wouldn't you?

You're leaving out that now the paper is written, is the word typeset still used?, say in NYC, then transmitted to satellites then towns across the county have a factory looking building with a sat downlink which shoots the image to whatever they use now-a-days. In the '80's they moved away from cameras and to something called newsplaters. Big scanner devices. Early use of the revolving disk with mirrors like you see in checkout scanners. The news was beamed to a revolving disk with flat mirrors, the disk of course was spinning very fast. As each new mirror moved under the beam a new line feed happened. This reflection onto an aluminum sheet having a special coating that was then the image of the newpage. So, if you were comparing newspapers that had lead type mashing down onto paper, bundled and sent off to cities via aircraft, like the ASICs from China to Sweden, doesn't happen with newspapers that way any more.
