2,000 feet is awfully low for passenger travel but it's plenty high if you're trying to evade radar

In theory, management should improve progress by reducing mistakes and waste. Unfortunately, it often doesn't work that way.

Management aren't the only culprits for injecting delay and waste, though.

So called product owners and project managers retitled as Scrum Masters can create almost unbounded amounts of busy work even though they might not be officially "management".

I am convinced the solution for that is some kind of arbitrary budget on the busywork tasks, but I haven't figured out how to quantify and implement such a thing.

The meanings of words changes over time due to their usage. This is true for all living languages. If you want words with static definitions you want a dead language, like latin.

Here in reality Nuclear plants are closing because they can't compete with wind and solar on cost.

So all the math in the world is rather pointless when reality shows us that it is wrong.

The issue is simple to solve.

Tax CO2 output by power plants. Heck, just tax heavy metal and radioactive releases. That alone would shutdown coal plants.

This place is now mostly home to right wing kooks and racists, but I repeat myself.

Sad to see what happened to it.

Yes, people get older and wiser over time.
Spread of information is not always a good thing. See the anti-vaxxers and the damage they are doing to our nation and it's economy.

Or maybe you are just stupid.
The fascists aren't defending free speech, go to their safe spaces like gab and say something they don't like. You get the same outcome.

Reddit is a private service, it is not tax payer funded.
Reddit cannot impact your right to free speech. Start your own forum.

Mediatek is a GPL violator. That's even worse.

Sunk costs are gone.
The money is spent. Stop worrrying about it.

The question is what will maintenance cost over the next 20 years.
