The solution is better employment screening, skills monitoring, and training, and not cutting back or removing the automation.
Couldn't even be bothered to read the summary? Nowhere was it mentioned to cut back or remove automation and more training was specifically mentioned as requirement to make sure the pilots where competent.
What doesn't make sense? Automation fails and human intervention is needed, but some of the humans he are needed to intervene don't have the skills to do so.
That w as true long before the Dice buyout. Do you not remember kdawson? The sad part is that kdawson looks like a genius compared to Timmeh and Unknown Lamer these days...
How about we stop trying to sweep shit under the rug, while sitting calmly in our homes and playing Candy Crush on facebook, and start acting like responsible citizens and taking steps to improve the government?
Hit the streets protesting, vote responsibly, gather signatures to force your representatives to take measures.
Exactly it's simply greed. They are already making back that $5 and then some reselling all the power they bought from these people. It's simply rent seeking.
How are they getting a free ride? The electric company is reselling the power they bought and making far more in profits on that than the $5 a month they are going to charge people.
Exactly. The people defending this as saying "it's only $5" are incredibly naive or simply shills. These companies will continue to raise the fees every year.

Yes we know. You already posted this.
Ive Cube? Pssssh. What has Ice T spotted?
In what way is competition being supressed by the NHTSA clarifying their rating system? Only an idiot could come up with such shitty logic.
And how are the bean counters in the insurance companies any better exactly?

Hey, now! Dice.com is a lot of things but that's a low blow!

I'd rather have a computer flying the airplane I am sitting in, than a hairless ape.
And when the computer goes down? Or do you really think that these systems never fail?

Did they still tie onions to their belts back then?
It isn't even technically true. Macondo Prospect is not international waters.
Wrong. It was within the US exclusive economic zone in the Gulf of Mexico.
Qt is what they are using for mobile and "Unity Next".
Mir only benefits Canonical.
That they are developing it doesn't mean it will be accepted by the Qt Project.

Only that Netflix uses silverlight which has a vulnerability.
That was patched in March via auto update... Unknown Lamer and Timmeh continue to show how the Slashdot "editors" are functional illiterates.

Okay, I'll do it when you do.
Yeah, you try that and see how well it works out. Protip: It won't.
What problems do you see with this approach?
Gee, I don't know Timmeh. Maybe the fact that it would break the gag order and you'd be sent to the federal pen?

It only seems fair if your naive enough to think the fee will never be raised. Especially if more and more people get panels.

Except they are "paying their share" by allowing this very utility to resell their energy at a much higher rate than they bought it.
