That audio warning is only available on the newest planes, but even if it is available, if the ILS is off/not tuned in, there is no way for the plane to know it's not lined up. I can understand wanting to hand-fly the plane, but I

I find all this hand wringing over Google to be so tiring. Google is doing what is best for it's customers. Be that advertisers and/or searchers. If they stop doing that, they'll lose their market dominance. Last I checked,

Not the person you are responding to, but my wife is an American living in Germany and we have public insurance. I think you're conflating a few different terms and perhaps not fully understanding what is meant by public and private in

Aww piffle. :) It's not like the previous generation of people all explored the vast web. They didn't. They didn't even use it until relatively recently. The percentage of those that are intrigued by technology and have t

How do you figure that undocumented immigrants don't pay taxes? Since employers are required to withhold said taxes in paychecks. In any case, let's use some of this energy to making immigration policy that works and we'll r

That would have been really smart. However, this move was driven by the product owner, including the requirement that we must score an "A" on the SSL Test site. I had just assumed he knew what he was asking for. The scanning of

Exactly. My insistence is always that what happens inside the Sprint is the concern of the development team and nobody elses. However it's important to remember that the team itself should set their velocity in negotiation with the pro

For a developer getting a dev environment up and running? Sure, it's way better 'cause they don't have to know anything. For an admin that needs to understand what is going wrong in production and how to adjust knobs to make
