days is a method on the Numeric class in Rails, and it creates an instance of ActiveSupport::Duration with self passed to the constructor (this is a bit of a simplification, because it actually calls the class method days on Duration which converts the number of days into seconds before creating the Duration instance).

It’s a long bow to draw, but you could argue that AMD contributed to killing Clear Linux by taking back a lot of market share (particularly in the lucrative server market), forcing Intel to make big budget cuts, which included Clear Linux.

In reality, Intel’s problems are largely self-inflicted. However, I don’t think they’d be in as much trouble as they are if AMD wasn’t also in such a strong competitive position.

Those particular drums are usually used for solids, but with a plastic liner inside they can be used for viscous liquids as well. I wouldn’t fill one with a low viscosity liquid, you’d want a plastic or metal drum for that.

Those drums in the picture are really badly filled as well, I’d have rejected them if they’d turned up to the warehouse looking like that back when I was doing QA.
