Why are so many companies infested with weasels that come up with things like this which they know are wrong and evil, that they only dare to do because they think that nobody will notice? How many weasels does your company employ?
Perhaps companies should make all employees undergo psychological testing to root out these pathological personality types and make sure their actions are monitored.
Confucianism has an example in it that I think should apply. It is where when two people meet, both people bow to a certain depth to the other. But one does not bow because one _expects_ the other to bow, but bows in anticipation of the other bowing, and in so doing, both bow in unison and to the same degree, and mutual respect and trust is established.
I feel like I'm bowing, and I don't want to expect anything, but I wonder what I'm doing wrong that I'm bowing all by myself.
A good example is to look at who has all the patents for graphene research. It mostly ain't us.
You totally ignored the entire point about the dangers of having all this Cobalt-60 lying around all over the country, unprotected in the hands of idiots, but instead choose to defend the image of these food processors and the quality of their contaminated product, responding with a standard "citation please"? WTF is wrong with you? Whatever your motivations, you need help.
This is why food irradiation using radioactive elements, fondly rejiggered with the euphemism "cold pasteurization", is so insane. There are cheap food factories all over the U.S. with amounts of Cobalt-60 much greater than in this recent heist, with laughable security, all so we can be fed rotten, contaminated food they shouldn't be selling anyway.
The possible costs so outweigh the questionable "benefits" in this case, there is no other way to describe this terrorist-tragedy-waiting-to-happen other than willful, reckless endangerment of the lives of millions. All to make a few more dollars selling diseased meat.
There are two ways to write error-free programs; only the third one works.
