No, the pilot pulled the stick back the entire time, not forward. As the pitot tubes froze, the entrance first became smaller. This speeds up the air entering, and gave the pilot an overspeed warning. In other words, he thought he was diving. When all speed indication went away, he didn't know what to do, and continued to climb to maximum plane altitude. He didn't level off, he tried to continue to climb higher than the plane can. It then stalled. The pitot tubes cleared early in this event, and the plane correctly warned of stall. The co-pilot in control continued to climb the aircraft, even though diving is the correct solution to a stall. Only when the other pilot realized what the first was doing did they start to correct it, but hit the water before he was able to point the nose down. The pilots were doing everything except looking at the gauges to see what the plane was actually doing.
When Capt Sullenberger landed on the Hudson, the aircraft software worked to prevent his stall. But his flying skill is what safely landed the plane. His knowledge of what the aircraft can and cannot do was critical. He even realized he needed the APU for the computers to continue operating, and turned it on early in the emergency. His actions showed that he understood his plane and how to fly it. Some pilots are forgetting the "fly it" part.
In my travels in Europe and Asia, I am amazed at how often I run across US products. Not manufactured, but copyrighted. Most movies are American. Most people use language specific versions of American websites. People Google things. The hang out on Facebook. Many of the items they used, though made elsewhere, were designed an copyrighted in the US. So yes, the copyright laws to protect these ideas would be lopsided.
Having traveled in both France and Quebec, I am amazed at how American Quebec is. They strive to save their French heritage, but it little resembles actual French culture. The two groups have been separated too long. Many of their French customs are as French as US ones are English.
Google spent a lot of money to help us find books. I really don't mind seeing ads down the side while I search. They are not preventing anyone else from spending lots of money to do the same thing.
We still have 1 control unit running Windows 95. It works fine, no reason to upgrade it. Not network connected. I am sure that a large number of people will be using hardware bought in the last few years when ReactOS is ready.
It took FreeDOS forever to get to version 1.0, and it is widely used to solve issues involving old hardware. Often used in systems which control machinery.
I was surprised how well the movie tried to follow the plot of the book. But, flying across the galaxy to fight bugs with assault rifles at 10 feet? Everyone in the army looking like members of the fashion club? Where are the armored suits? Skydiving from space? Hand held nukes? (OK, they had a little bit of that). The basic training parts of the book were critical. And why did they include Doogie Howser, Gestapo? For all the teenage blood and gore in the movie, it did portray the concepts of the book fairly well.
At work, we just had to downgrade one of our products because the customer couldn't handle.NET 4.0. Will the world please catch up with Microsoft, please?

The sun is not a type of star that will go nova. Enlarge and fry the Earth, yes. Nova, no.
Not to mention that the year 2038 is coming up fast!

Another version of Linux released!
You sue companies, not technology.
Yes, why don't the sue Bing, Yahoo, etc? Are they just determining that no one actually uses the other search engines?
Does this mean that Firefox will finally go 64 bit?
I know there are versions of Firefox for older systems maintained by other parties.
You could buy computers with backs that opened, and you could configure them with new hardware...
No, you hooked it up to your analog TV and watched it.
The BBC is still looking.
Would the passengers also survived? Key question.
would anyone post that, or watch it?
Been working fine for me.
It's a bypass. You've got to build bypasses

No. The language was so obscure, that when you Googled it, Google only tried to correct your spelling.
