He should have killed the nickel as well and mad the smallest divisor of coinage 0.1 of a dollar. We need to make room in the cash drawers for $! and $5 coins and bigger paper currency.

Grandpa died because his intestines stopped working because he drank the water in Little Hocking, Ohio (Smooth, with a slight chemical aftertaste, as I recall).

I was auto rejected by P&G for a senior level IT architect position. The reason (I knew some HR folks their and discovered)I had to much experience. Some sort of age discrimination protocol I guess.

All in all, automation is a good thing, but it is also a way to make a small mistake into a smoking crater. I understand that you don't want to do devops at 30,000 feet but they have an identified problem with the automation that has killed twice. The bug needs to be removed from the code before another 737 MAX leaves the ground.

If you wanted to cause some economic/real terror you just shoot a piece of aircraft cable diagonally through the tunnel. The car arrives in the station sliced in half. The same thing happens to your investment in hyperloop.
