No thank you!
I'll just leave this here... DHL in practice.
We already know how the current companies perform. And its generally not great.
Meh. At my workplace we use monitors/etc when we ship stuff where handling matters. If handling goes out of spec, then we'll have some words with the courier, and have procurement bring up that nice exclusive agreement we made that sends millions per year in business their way.
There's a reason the laws built up the way they did. You want to fix them, you have my blessing.
Nah, I'll leave that to you.
That was my whole point. If you want the law to be right, go ahead and fix it. Everybody else is just going to ignore it. They don't care if the law is right or not, because it doesn't really matter if nobody enforces it.
It is just too painful to fix the law. Too many entrenched interests are going to block you when you try. People realize they don't actually have to play that game, and so they don't. We end up with a society where EVERYBODY breaks the law daily as a result.
I don't think it is a good thing, but until it is easier to fix, nobody is going to bother.
Sure, but if somebody did operate an airliner in this manner, I imagine many other components would be failing, creating numerous hazardous conditions.
Maintenance schedules on big things like airliners aren't just created arbitrarily. If the manual says to inspect the turbine blades every n hours then somebody probably did a study that shows that at x% of n hours you start to get measurable deterioration. If they could make the intervals longer they would - it would be a major selling point for the plane.
Sure, this software bug should be fixed, but in general if you're going to allow companies to ignore the manufacturer's guidelines, then you can't really hold the manufacturer responsible for failure.
It most certainly is a fork
Just re branded with node.js replaced with a fork and Chromium as a viewer. Never thought I would see MS use Chrome.
But applause as MS is truly adopting to open source
Ha! That was the backstory of the watchable but still marginal "The Colony" -- an attempt to geoengineer climate goes haywire, inducing a planet wide ice age.
An authority is a person who can tell you more about something than you really care to know.
