this is just a total saving face scenario. he even mentions that after the lion air flight they knew about this (i would claim they knew about it long before that anyway) and have been working on a fix. then why the cold response still after the ethiopian airlines crash? furthermore, this is summed up by just "we'll fix it in software". hurray, everything we touch including cars and airplanes are now subscribing to the "we'll fix it in software" approach. failed a safety brake test? fix it with software. kill a few hundred people by an automatic system crashing a plane? fix it with software. i really hope society wakes up and SLOWS DOWN. we're trying to move so fast, with hardly any reason at all, and in doing so, we are throwing away all ability to properly design, build, and god forbid, think about things. i don't know what it's going to take, but it feels out of control. everywhere you look is people hurrying and hurrying to release, to productize, to ship it, etc. whenever i ask "why?" to schedules, there has NEVER been a clear answer. it always boils down to basically "just because". in addition, we simply have too much laziness and greed taking place, which is what added to boeing's misstep here. they tried pulling a fast one on buyers (and basically accomplished it) to make a few bucks towards that everlasting capitalist dream.
