Personnel are cheap low cost labour who double as repair workers. Insurance rates for a system that is unable to be repaired at see and could require a tow would be astronomical. The need for food and crew space could fit maybe an additional container or 2 on an already massive vessel.
Cool bananas. One company well known for marketing blitzes like this is on board. But unless you can find more companies like Tesla this isn't going to solve the problem.
We're no longer talking about storm damage mitigation, we're talking about complete overhaul of infrastructure. And I do seem to recall that Tesla originally saw these as temporary loans, especially considering that they were setup in all sorts of inconvenient places like car parks, football fields, etc.
This appears to be an extension of the "Kanzen" technique

And this isn't anything unique to Japan or their car industry. It's just a fancy management term that describes doing the same thing. Examples include: Toyota called it the Toyota Production System Motorola called it 6Sigma Other variants include 5S All together it's called Continuous Improvement and frankly every company in the Fortune 500 has some kind of system like this in place.
Yes, it will cost money. That could be partially offset by the good publicity and the possible tax write-offs.
The good old "paid for by hopes and dreams approach" I do recall Elon Musk providing solar and battery storage only to get grilled in this very forum for doing so. You're better off trying to crowdfund it all.
Then re-capitalize the whole thing without debt and move on with what you can actually pay for. If that's impossible or they are too corrupt/incompetent to get that done
You idea works well in practice for a company with working valuable assets. That's not the case here. You can't stiff all your creditors, declare bankruptcy, recapitalize, and then expect any 3rd party to work with you when it comes to repairing your broken crap. Not after you just failed to pay the previous people you owned money to.
It's good old anti-mates-rates. Normally I charge $1000 for this work, but hey, because it's you.... I'm gonna need it up front.
Nobody suffered any air-less injury, so it seems the mask works however you use it.
Or more likely the plane didn't depressurise to the point where people needed to rely on masks to get sufficient O2.
I shot myself in the head today but didn't die. Clearly bullets won't kill you if you shoot yourself in the head. See the stupidity of the logic you are employing?
Millions of millennials will need to learn cursive writing so that they can fill out a check. The YouTube video for how to address and stamp an envelope will be the first in 2018 with a billion views.
And pretty soon the market realized that this was possible, and there was a market for it - cheaper laptops for kids and people who wouldn't otherwise use a computer.
Err no. The market for a cheap thing for kids is basically non-existant. The market was for a large portion of the working 3rd world. The kids benefitted of being in the same pricing category of a far larger and more desirable market.
To that end: This was just a natural course of capitalism. OLPC could never have existed (and let's face it, it pretty much didn't) and we would have been in the same place as we are now. They didn't invent a market, certainly didn't invent a profitable one, didn't invent minaturisation, and effectively did nothing that technology companies wouldn't naturally have gotten to anyway.
The world has a long history of tinkering with toys, miniturising, and lowering cost. This was nothing more than natural progression. OLPC was a great idea, but failed in execution partially because they were ahead of their time, and I would argue didn't leave any mark on the world.
The "one laptop per child" demand was met instead largely by smartphones.
Causal failure: The first smartphone to hit the market came several years after the OLPC project. The first affordable third world smartphone came years after OLPC had been forgotten as a failure.
Schools and school children all over the world are increasingly getting access to usable sub $200 laptops and connected tablets that are giving them unprecedented access to knowledge like never before in the history of the world.
Disagree on the causation there. The market is not for the school children and the companies aren't targeting them due to altruism. However India, China, and the other 3rd world *working population* is a huge market that has always been desirable to target. The technology however was lacking.
Children in African schools can thank the large number of the world's poor for their sub $200 laptops, not OLPC.
The OLPC project itself failed in its goals, but it helped bring us the low cost computing things like Raspberry type SBCs,
I disagree. Technology made all that possible. The world has a long history of tinkering with educational toys. If OLPC didn't ever exist I think we would still be very much using Raspberry Pis and cheap tablets today.
Technology enabled the low cost. We have always been playing with small SBCs (and by extension been playing with toys for education e.g. BBC Micro) and their cost has always been coming down. The market enabled the the sub $100 tablet. No one cares about the OLPC going after some kids in African schools. The 1/4 of the worlds working population in rural Asia / Africa on the other hand is a great market.
If guns didn't exist she would have used something else.
Indeed I see this as an argument all the time, but it has the opposite effect you think. Now when you get angry at this post I would greatly prefer you to come at me with a knife rather than cowardly taking my life from across the room.
But still...people were killed, and yet....well, we had no marches
This is fucking America. People shoot each other on a daily basis. It seems to be part of your way of life. The only time it matters if it takes the form of the government doing the shooting, or some children being the ones shot at.
Even the international media is starting to take a view of: Mass shooting in America... yeah put it as a footnote at the end of the news, there's a football match to cover first.
Okay to make a bit of light on this tragic situation has anyone else seen the footage coming out of various organisations from the disaster. The selifies are especially terrifying. Example: https://heavy.com/news/2018/04...
Doesn't anyone know how to use a god damn oxygen mask? I mean it has been a staple part of flight safety demonstrations since the 80s, but really look at the selfies, NO ONE seems to know how the oxygen masks work. Like people have them attached to their chins and stuff, I'm genuinely surprised no one is wearing one like a hat.
Funny your complaints are the same about my remotely administered Windows 7 machine. Just because you may not be the one who doesn't know how to use the settings in their computer doesn't mean that someone else isn't a complete buffoon. The problem is the same, you're effectively complaining about not knowing how to use settings which have a full paragraph dedicated to explaining each of them.
Also the way you talk about CAs just shows you have fundamentally no idea what you're talking about, especially when it comes to sending data. The source of the data is completely irrelevant if you can independently verify it as authentic. You need internet access to access a CA to determine your own piece of software you are verifying yourself (speaking from the software's perspective here) is valid? You need to revisit some of your CS classes. The same also applies to the entire CS process. Or do you think that when I hit Preview and Submit on this sorry conversation that my browser will send DST a request on over the internet before forwarding this message to Slashdot servers.
Also congratulations, you may also somehow have been the first person to accuse Windows 10 of not talking continuously to Microsoft. I'm not sure how you managed to justify making that post to yourself.
I have a CS degree and I find Win10 hard to control.
Says it all really.... About the degree I mean.
I wonder how often you laugh at the non-computer savvy
Considerably less than I laugh at the "computer savvy" people. The non-computer savvy people somehow just use their computers. It's the experts that can't seem to figure it out.

and viewership of their own content is what they have. These numbers are very good.
... I don't know how you can justify that post.
Too much effort. The Apple approach of simply putting "Do not leak this" in bold at the top of the email works far better.
That is just wasteful!
Unless it becomes a marketing point. There's whole product markets that exist on the sole premise of 10x more precise than the competitor.

I'm quite sad no one is smoking a cigarette. It would be the perfect "no fucks given" meme.

Oh yeah. Those comments rival some Amazon reviews.
If this is a legitimate problem then you have a very poorly designed lighting system in your tunnel.
Also you do realise these aren't your pitch black stare at the sun welding glasses right? They only have a limited range of tonal variation.

They are the equivalent of a $30k Ford
Haters will hate. In the mean time actual reviewers are praising them no end and sure as fuck aren't comparing them to $30k Fords.
My guess is as folks start to realize they are mileage limited with long recharge times (range anxiety)
Actually Tesla owners almost universally realise that they aren't. It's traditional car owners that think they are.
Yet people are worried about Global Warming, while they choke on the air they breathe daily. Humans.
It'll blow your mind to know that something can cause two problems at once.
They are dying because of old age and the limits of the human body.
Yep. 6.1million people in 2016 found the limits of toxic substances inhaled from the air which their bodies were capable of.
