Last time the executives found a scapegoat who was *gasp* not even an MBA, and teamed up with prosecutors to blame him. So if someone does go to jail, it will not be part of their little social club, it will be some outsider who got promoted near their lofty position and is safe to get rid of.

Apparently there were 5 different companies involved in that repair, so everyone probably someone else was keeping records.

Learn their lesson? Where do you think China got the idea from? US companies have always been very asymmetric with their IP, stealing whatever they can and guarding whatever they have.

Vote in primaries then.

Ignorance has always been a bit of a fetish in the tech industry. Knowing things taints your view of what can be done, thus is not seen as a virtue. What is important is knowing what is hot TODAY, and not worrying about similar it is to the thing that failed just 5 years earlier.

Gotta love the anti-science crowd. Any time a story comes out about some particular field looking into something they don't know, people come out of the woodwork to claim that the whole field must be wrong then and whatever crackpot idea they subscribe to must be right since THEY never admit they are wrong!

So.. they developed a search engine with extra steps?

Really, anything with MMX instructions is an 'AI PC'

Also depends if it is something like a maintenance issue, or a statistical one. I am sure all of us in tech have had difficult to reproduce bugs we were told to stop trying to track down because they were one-offs or encountered something that would be time consuming to fix but were told to stop because 'it will probably never happen'. Look through the issue tracking system and you will find a few 'black cockpit, could not reproduce' or 'could cause black cockpit, but statistically unlikely'.

Another question would be.. even if they plan was old, when was the last time the updated the software?

It is less a story and more a white supremacist meme. They repeat it everywhere they can since they see it as a clever way of saying 'see, white men really are the master race! employ us!'

What they want is industry to go back to making its own rules, where capitalism (as dictated by God) decides which policies are best.

Since when has 'costly and ineffective' been something that conservatives care about? Pretty much all conservative polices come down to 'this is expensive and does not work, but it makes us feel good and scientists with their data hate america and common sense'.

This seems like a VERY selective time to apply that standard to a law.

People who sell snake oil to scared survivors?

They are obvious now, and even today they are not all that obvious since they are language specific. All a modern language designer would really know is that they have to do _something_ and not crash, but what they do is up for users of the language to discover.

Eh, they also tie it into 'lean', and failing to meet regulations. So yeah, it is used for safety too.
