I would feel that I'm wasting time that I could be using to find out why Boeing makes this possible (or any other corporate or government body with a critical system).

After absorbing what the researchers did, I believe it's time to skip right over the second part and just concentrate on why so many critical systems are run on unforked Linux.

So asking 'why?' in this situation is in some way unethical because the person in question is from China? Or is it that we have to limit the answers to our question because the person is from China? Please advise, and further clar

History shows that 3 things are important for food security: live animals for milk or slaughter, grain that can be stored, and any local food that can be easily dried. Before we react that food security isn't really a thing anymore, hi

Put another way, if there is enough humidity to work with then there are plants which have evolved to take in that humidity more efficiently than any apparatus. Imagine trying to design something that could compete with bamboo or certain bu

The 'mortgage return' will compete very well over a long period of time, especially if you ensure the comparison is fair. For instance, 15 years in, when your mortgage note is 60 to 70% of prevailing rent or lease, consider the re

But that's not the idea is it? The idea is to define the terms, and see what the bids are. Perhaps, if the bids are too low, the decision would be to 'pay oneself' (spend from savings) while working on said side project. But

So far all of the comments here are just dances around how we perform business analysis. It is a role, is it a process, will we split it into pieces in our workflow, will we do it along with a prototype?

Here's another dumb thing: believing politicians that tell you what you want to hear.

So you just pretend to not understand that getting a loan with the expectation of future payment as collateral is not the same thing as 'getting paid'? Sure, in your shoes I'd refuse to engage as well. I mean, how in the worl

Buying equities in our society is done on a voluntary basis. What other possible pricing mechanism could there be other than people's opinion of what an equity is worth? If you want to throw your hands up in the air and call it funny m

You are wrong about gold, either learn or drop that, its not central to your argument. A lot of things are scarce. Some of those things are valued. Bitcoins may or may not be valued in the future, and if they are it is unknown at what price

I don't think the term 'naturally' is apt here. It implies that people are actually making a logical choice. In the same way that a house is often the majority of the network of Americans, a job is often the majority of the i

It's amazing how often IT professionals complain about management completely misunderstanding the nature of their work while simultaneously advocating that a governing body even more removed from their situation will make everything so

I've hired, developed and promoted roughly 300 people in my career (including those who left for a better job at other orgs). I don't mind WFH co-workers, or the extra work that they make for me when it comes to managing them. I c

Is it really hard to understand why some people are more productive working in physical proximity to the rest of the team? Why adding some commute friction is ok with them as it reduces communication friction later in the day?

The significance of the proliferation of such technology is that there will actually be people and processes 'watching' the screen. To my mind this is fundamentally different than the knowledge that a few state actors had the capa

They were made for a time when we were not so poorly educated that we trusted leadership to people so far away, with so little in common with ourselves and our way of lives. I tell you what, though. You design an effective, smart and transp

An existential crisis for humanity is absolutely NOT the kind of climate that would cause humans to stop valuing a nation, a people, a culture, or their ancestry. I would argue that it is only the benign environment that most humans have en
