I was keeping my response simple, but for "flight critical" sensors the general idea is to have at least 3 and use a voting system.
Great. How do you determine whether the vote has a correct outcome?
3 good sensors: all good
/
Unless the sensors have a design flaw and under certain weather conditions they all report an erroneous value. Like the Pitot tubes on the ill-famed Air France crash a few years back.
1 good - 2 whack(different values) - system unreliable, turn off, consider landing early
Unless the two different values are identical, in which case the system would think they are good and crash the plane. But let's see...
1 good - 2 whack(same values) - hope you notice before crash/fire. Turn off system. Seriously consider landing early. Last good sensor may or may not be usable(does it have an output you can use?). Consider firing maintainers as it is likely at least one was whack when you took off.
The idea is that crash tendency is noticed. Remember that both MAX 8 crashes happened very soon after take-off, when plane is still at a relatively low altitude and likely to still be in a cloud with no visibility. It is what happened back in 1995 at Balotesti, when the plane suffered from a software bug and the captain had a stroke. Even both, combined, would not have been enough to crash the plane, had the co-pilot had visibility outside the cockpit. However, the plane was in the clouds, so the co-pilot only realized the plane was hurtling straight down when it exited the cloud, 7 to 8 seconds before impact.
Lenin didn't have Internet access. Neither did 5th of November terrorists (back in 1605), nor did Bakunin, John Brown, the KKK, the IMRO, the IRA (up until very recently), and so on. So no, the mere existence of Internet access isn't a terrorist recruitment tool, albeit it makes it easier for terrorists to communicate over large distances.
I've seen this in Romania as far back as 2001. A legally established company scoured through Yellow Pages and sent thousands and thousands of parcels containing two or three Romanian Flags at inflated prices (say, 25 dollars a piece). Companies which accepted the parcel received an actual product, all legally documented (invoices and everything), albeit highly priced, which is not a crime.
Considering myself a multi-pronged metal fan, I have listened to so much metal of all types that lines between genres are now very blurred to me. I can recognize pure black metal from pure death metal, for example, but none of the "technical melodic death metal" or "epic viking black metal" definitions make sense to me. I enjoy "MONO, Inc." and "Agathocles", "Out Of Norm" and "Anal Cunt", "In The Woods" and "Six Feet Under" and don't think of one genre or subgenre as better than another. The whole metal scene is peppered with gems, be them bands as a whole, albums or mere songs here and there.
With that being said, metal was never desensitizing for me, it was a way of controlling and channeling my emotions. There are metal songs which help me calm down if I'm upset, and songs which help me become energized, and songs which help me focus, songs I prefer when on a road trip, when camping, when making love.
My former job as a cameraman was arguably desensitizing in some regards, but that's another story for another time. But metal music, as a whole, shaped my emotions in a positive way. There are songs which fill me with amazing, good vibes and emotions, and I have grown to know, through the years, that sadness and melancholy are powerful driving emotions which led me to a much greater empathy towards the world. They also taught me to tell fake from truth, for example a real beggar from a fake beggar.
Exactly in the same spot. Were they paid less because they were less skillful, because they didn't negotiate as aggressively, because they were actively discriminated? The simple fact that X is generally paid less than Y doesn't tell the whole story.
At some point, moving from one level to the next becomes a very lengthy process. Much like in sports, for example tennis. Imagine top 10 as the uppermost level, entering it could take years of work. At the same time, a lower level (e.g. top 901-1000) is much more dynamic. And it makes no sense to have 80 levels of skill. How do you fit an engineer in exactly level 74, but not 73 or 75?
It's job level, country, and how close to the maximum that level is. If it's level 4 out of 10, then yes the difference between salaries (within the same geographical area) should be relatively small, maybe 10-15%. But at level 9 of 10, you might be sitting there for 10 years before becoming "a god of $skills", and the salary band should be much larger. You have to give small raises to a senior engineer, and if after 8 years of work as a senior engineer, they get a freshly-appointed senior engineer colleague who is paid the same amount, it might just not be fair to the older employee.
You can be working as a Level 4 Software Engineer for a year or for 10 years. Surely there's a difference. I am a Level 3 grade in what I do, have been for over 8 years. Should I be a level 4? Yes, by all accounts. Why am I not? Politics at work. I lack some "soft skills" (namely being able to aptly asskiss). Nothing technical preventing me from acceding to the next level. So I am paid in the upper margin of Level 3 band. There is someone at Level 4 who is less technical than me but customers love her because she always says "yes sir", and then offloads the heavy work to me. I don't mind, though, I understand those soft skills are required and I don't have them.
And there's one more thing you're overlooking when saying: "for many large companies pay withing a level is pretty much withing a defined band" - you forgot to add "and within the same state/country". Having me as an example, my 3rd world country salary for a level 3 in a global corp is about 1/8th of the salary for the same level in the USA. So what should I do? Demand equal payment? Because we ARE doing the same thing, with arguably the same success.
Paying everyone the same amount for the same job reeks of communism. One person could be a better "Level 4 Software Engineer" than another. I've seen this time and again.
Spotify costs 5 EUR per month here. For that amount, you can buy 5 songs you own forever, and listen to them endlessly for free. I can listen to thousands of songs through the whole month, allowing me to pick the ones I love most, and whose albums I would buy. Streaming services and CDs work together, they complete each other. I pick the best of both worlds.
Yes, the calculation is retarded. Analogies: * Earth is losing giga-gigawatts of energy from lack of solar panels in the Sahara Desert * Humans are losing billions of children per second due to masturbation
If the U.S. had held back military spending prior to WWII
But they had... until the Japanese kicked the hornet's nest at Pearl Harbour.
Anyway, I do remember Nobel and his peaceful-driven research, which was promptly exploited for military purposes. Point is, military-driven and civilian-driven research would both be applied in the military field, if there's the smallest chance it could be applicable, regardless who does the research. Now, if Microsoft employees don't like it, they are free to protest,. resign, sue Microsoft, do whatever they feel is right (within the boundaries of the law, of course). But make no mistake, the technology WILL be invented and WILL be used, if not by the USA first, then by other governments. Technology moves forward and all of it is militarized where applicable.

America spends more per student on education than any other country in the world except Norway.
There is a difference between "money spent" and "money well spent".

there's nothing wrong with doing marketing.

Slashdot ate my non-English quotation mark start. The quote was supposed to be: "In the Trump Administration, Science Is Unwelcome. So Is Advice."

Yeah, metal screaming definitely doesn't need talent:

Exactly in the same spot. Were they paid less because they were less skillful, because they didn't negotiate as aggressively, because they were actively discriminated?
The simple fact that X is generally paid less than Y doesn't tell the whole story.
The problem is defining the levels. What defines level 10? What defines level 11? What defines level 2186?
What if there isn't a level 5? Or what if Level 5 is the highest? It could take years to gain enough experience and skill to reach level 5.
At some point, moving from one level to the next becomes a very lengthy process. Much like in sports, for example tennis. Imagine top 10 as the uppermost level, entering it could take years of work.

You are right. I will demand to be paid the same amount as my USA-based colleagues. OR ELSE! :)
