I agree completely. It could very easily be that people who choose to do this form of employment are inherently different from average, so the control group would need to take that into account some how at least.

The title is unsubstantiated. The study does not have a 'control group'. There is no way to say if the risk is heightened or lowered. It could easily be true that the increased experience of these drivers is making them safer than average. The headline should be disregarded.

The numbers have always been off. Like CRAZY off. I mean, send humans to Mars AND back for less than what it costs to send a hunk of metal the size of a minivan on a one way mission to Saturn??? We all knew this was NUTS, right?

Hookers and Blow! It's always Hookers and Blow! LOL!

I would prefer to address this problem with bullets. Or at the very least HAND-CUFFS! We need to find these people, and arrest them! PRISON is the solution to theft.

Working long hours is only good if you own a significant amount of the company. Otherwise, you are burning up your precious time on earth for almost no reward.

From the article:

The article concludes by opposing the idea that "If we get the engineering right, our better angels will triumph. It's a pleasant thought, but it's a fantasy... Technology is an amplifier. It magnifies our best traits, and it magnifies our worst. What it doesn't do is make us better people. That's a job we can't offload on machines."

False. The tech could predict if we will agree with a piece of information, and use that in considering, which pieces of information to show us.

Fire The Prison Staff. The Prisoners are already in charge, leave them in-charge and continue to not pay them. Problem solved.

Property Taxes, and Vat Taxes, are a sizable part of the overall burden. I would say they amount to 1/4 of the taxes I pay. And I live in a place with low property Taxes. High Property Tax Areas, like most cities in the U.S., It could be half the tax you pay.

Don't run WebDAV on IIS 6.0. If you have not stopped already, stop now. Ok, all fixed, now, back to security.

I doubt one could build a list of defects in Concorde for $33 million. If the world really wanted mach2+ altlantic travel enough to pay for putting it back in the air, the short path would be to fix the problems with the concord. Fly-by-wire, better canards, etc.

Somewhat, but not entirely. The theory of how life formed makes predictions of forensic evidence that would be left behind. The searching for, and the finding of said evidence is a reproducible activity. Overall the findings have been limited and weak, and there are several competing theories.

Predictability is a basic rule of science. Until it is reproducible, it is not science

This should be easy. It is reasonable for a person to read that language as meaning either of the two asserted meanings. So, borrowing from contract law, if a clause is ambiguous, the ambiguity goes to the party NOT responsible for writing the clause. So, simply said, whomever is responsible for writing that language should lose. Presumably, it is the lobbyists who by proxy wrote it for the trucking company.

I don't know proper variable naming rules. (_, Ucase, camel?). I have a tool for that. I don't remember how to spell the names of properties, fields, or functions I use. I have a tool for that. I don't know how to write elegant linq queries. ... I have a tool for that! I don't code without checking example code for how to do things. (I don't have the time to learn off of my mistakes, I'll use yours). I have tools for that. Blogs, Stack, Vendor Documentation. Stop! Hassling me with your insipid questions that only serve as a demonstration of memorization of facts that are easily accessed in real time.
