I actually thought about that a little also but if I have to find a fairer choice between Boeing most likely to get away with a slap in US because big corps almost always do (too big to fail) vs. them getting taken down by a kangeroo court

I was thinking similar things. I'm plenty sure they don't have any legal responsibility to mislead and confuse people which is essentially what they are doing. They might have a legal responsibility to say we are at fault if their

Corporate irresponsibility and getting away with it is something I have mostly gotten used to at this point. But this particular incident is still really getting to me specially after the press release. I was just trying to read up a little

If the world was fair they should all (decision makers at Boeing and FAA both) be packed by the lot and send to stand trial in Ethiopia and Indonesia for 300+ murder, which is what I consider this to be. If you don't have food in your

That is quite shameful. How to store data in the car is at least a complex problem. Theoretically I might want the data there and other car companies might be doing the same. I assume the GPS devices store previous navigation that is readil

Ohh that is absolutely right. Articles like this transform a tragedy from a number to reality for most of us. But it then helps us remember that this story, this life is just one of the many. The other aspect I wanted to touch which I know

At least before Lion crash it sounded like the lack of documentation or training at least wasn't exactly a mistake but a purely business decision to make it appear like the regular 737.

So the extension implements a torrent downloader and video player together or it's something more sophisticated? There's no explanation of how it works so I'm curious.

I couldn't really read it fully kind of in a run. But it seems like that the author isn't just talking about the language but that commenting on every bad issue of the code is bad? I don't agree with that. I have a done a lot

Do you have specifics to share about Oracle clouds. That's the one you hear the least about publicly I think. You at least can get some ideas of the problems of AWS, GCE and Azure.

Enpass has many nice features. The PIN lock, the cloud drive sync (not centralized but still easy) but damn version 6 has been breaking things in so many ways that it's disappointing. It's so hard to find things and random things

Yes, I cannot imagine how people work in some of these fields. A lot of the pediatric specialization comes to mind also like oncology, cardiology. That some people can and do take the burden is the reason lots of those kids get to live.

You are comparing iPhone's marketing material to a life and death aspect of a self driving car and placing them at the same level. I think that says clearly how bad the Tesla material is. The standard for both shouldn't even me re
