inFunny how a cold case podcast shifted my view on armchair detectives
The appeal of public involvement is understandable, but official investigations often ignore amateur input for very good reason. Armchair detectives, however well-intentioned, can inadvertently destroy evidence, harass persons of interest, or spread dangerous misinformation that families must then confront. Look at the McStay family case, where internet sleuths wrongly targeted individuals and created a circus of speculation before the professional resolution. Law enforcement must operate within strict legal and ethical boundaries that podcast listeners simply do not. There is a profound difference between compiling online clues and building a court-admissible case.

inOverlooked conduit expansion joints on a long rooftop run... big regret.
Totally agree with that pattern. Skipping expansion joints doesn't just crack conduit, it can lead to full system failures when moisture corrodes connections. Seen it happen on a commercial site where they had to rewire an entire rooftop array after a season of neglect. It's a classic case of penny-wise, pound-foolish, especially with today's material costs.
