Just my thoughts #0687

The Industrial Revolution and advances in science and technology have caused an unprecedented rise in the production of industrial goods. When products made to meet demand cannot be sold, they remain in inventory. If inventory isn’t managed properly, the ability to fulfill purchase requests quickly declines, which harms both producers and consumers. Depreciation is an accounting method that accounts for the decrease in value over time and includes these losses in production costs. So far, the global economy has experienced repeating cycles of booms and recessions. One of the main triggers is inventory. Inventory is a crucial factor that can lead to business failure, but effective inventory management can help promote greater business success. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0176

The plum contains a poison called “amygdalin.” This poison is found not only in plums but also in other drupes. The poison “amygdalin” is a combination of two glucose molecules. When these glucose molecules are divided, they turn into “prunasin,” which is more prevalent in other plants. When an insect attacks a plant, it breaks the bond with glucose, turning it into “mandelonitrile” and quickly converting it into “benzaldehyde” and “hydrocyanic acid (HCN)” once more. HCN is a respiratory poison, and benzaldehyde is a unique fragrance component of cherries, bitter almonds, and pistachios. This dangerous ingredient is also present in green tea, but it appears only in small amounts, so it does not cause any problems when consumed. It is an ironic phenomenon in which by-products essential for survival kill other living beings. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
