Actually, for center-of-gravity reasons they (often) cannot reassign seats freely, as the aircraft gets balanced based on the assigned seats. If everyone moves up front, the pilots might get a surprise in how the plane reacts.

Possibly bad design with regards to the placement of the ejection seat box. But surely bad user training, as no one should sit in such a plane without being properly strapped in. It’s another example to learn from why procedures and consist

Contact tracing is not about saving lives. It’s about saving the economy without killing people. As you say, we have other measures to save lives, but it seems they are rather deadly on the economy, and human (social) life as we know (and l

It's a question of alternatives, isn't it? Operation Overlord was nothing any sane person would attempt if there was a viable alternative.

Some interesting thoughts: > First, it isn’t anonymous ... I believe this is a miss understanding. We loose anonymity once someone is diagnosed, there is no way around that. But we should not skip on anonymity for everyone else. Else thi

Globally we are running 100-thousands of tests per week, we must expect to see some false positives under these circumstances.

In this specific example. But you cannot rule it out in general.

Also current situation shows there is a 100 year risk that will likely return the average risk of short term renting to the original (pre AirBnB) value. So in a Long enough time frame AirBnB didn‘t change anything?

This might result in another fallthrough scenario though, wouldn't it?

This is simply an aggregate (on country level) on how many people (as change to baseline) have been at what sort of location at what time (with a granularity of days): * Retail & recreation * Grocery & pharmacy * Parks * Transit sta

As you ask: Adobe Lightbox has a nice feature where a double-click on a slider returns it to the default. This would be nice for your filters.

Was going to say this can all be done using the browsers dev-tools (which you can). But have to admit it's a nice interface and might come in handy from time to time.

Germany is at 80% though. So not that much difference.

by pintxo 7y ago
The calculation for Germany is as follows (from [1]): - There are about 28k ICU beds in German - Usual occupancy is 80%, expectation is that 50% can be reserved for Covid-19 patients by delaying elective medical actions - This gives us 14k

Believes rarely are the problem. It's usually the actions based on the believes generating the friction between the parties.

I'd say the usual fix we apply for this is limiting term times. Maybe we should be more rigorous with that.

Can we agree that it’s unlikely to have originated in Spain? Would give us another reason not to name it for a place, as our knowledge might change after a name is established. At the end the names stays around for >100 years, although b

> Rotate secrets automatically every few hours How is this helpful? To automate it means there is another system that could be attacked and it‘s a valuable one as it manages all the secrets, or not? What‘s the story?

True, but they stay at the exact same location, so it‘s easy to memorize. (And just hovering/slightly touching the key will show the current setting in the display.)

Is this a newer thing? I drive a 2009 model and this is surely a fixed list there. I agree, an MRU would drive me crazy.

Have you considered a BMW with their iDrive controller for the satnav/entertainment? I have yet to find a car with a better UX (aside from road handling, which I find equally good, but that’s another topic). Touchscreens should only be

Problem with looking at case numbers is, you need to know how many tests have been executed. If they doubled the number of tests within those 3 days, then you measure the increase in tests, not an increase in cases.

Let’s add our media model in here as well, although it’s also a subset of our economic model.
