How would you define a good result for that query? It seems like the only thing you could expect from that query is a page of advertising, since the "best X" without any criteria is a concept that doesn't exist in reality.

Most. Yandex is great, especially for programming searches. It generally ranks GitHub, Stack Overflow and other content-heavy sites highly. Google has been taken over by weird clones of GitHub and SO lately, Yandex has no such trash. It com

True, I was more referring to the time relative to the pilots' sleep cycles. They likely spend their days off in UAE, and probably sleep at night on those days off, so 3AM would be a difficult time to be alert and performing at your be

I'm surprised fatigue is not mentioned more in the discussion of this incident. The takeoff was at around 3AM local time, and Emirates is well known for pushing their pilots hard (many pilots take a job there specifically to build hour

Only beyond a certain distance — there are a few routes in China and Europe where the train will get you from A to B faster than an aircraft due to the aircraft's speed advantage mostly being in cruise flight. If you take into account

In NL you do have some somewhat-external oversight in the form of the European Aviation Safety Agency. This does _sort of_ apply to UAE as well, in the sense that EASA and FAA do some oversight of Emirates because they use their airspace an

This logic makes no sense. First of all, the citizenship of Emirates pilots would not mirror the citizenship of the UAE itself. Most Pakistan citizens coming to the UAE are not coming to work for Emirates. Secondly, Emirates is able to do t

That's a great question. I wonder if they took a belt-and-braces approach — as well as all the quarantining and testing, bring along some remdesivir/molnupiravir/ritonavir/etc, monoclonal antibodies and so on, just in ca

Most likely nothing serious, but given their remote location, if they get unlucky and even one person needs hospital treatment beyond what's possible at the base, that's a big problem.

Surely that attitude just flows from the salaries being so low. If the pay was good people would understand why you were in the public sector.

You can pick the region for SSO — or even use multiple. Ours is in ap-southeast-1 and working fine — but then the console that it signs us into is only partially working presumably due to dependencies on us-east-1.

The Mi 3H is a decent model (fairly significant improvement on the earlier models). I have one in my bedroom, and it really only cranks up the volume if I fry something in the kitchen and forget to run the extractor. VOC levels (as measured

That statement could only be true if you are comparing perfect-use hand sanitiser to typical-use hand washing, which isn't reasonable. If someone can't wash their hands properly, why assume they can use hand sanitiser perfectly?

These office buildings usually have automated ventilation which if specced properly can provide equivalent or more air exchanges per hour than open windows. As a bonus, automated ventilation can include a heat exchanger, while an open windo
