The wikipedia community has made itself utterly insular and there's way too much protectionism-via-automation.
Make an edit on an article someone thinks is 'theirs' ? Auto reverted via a bot. Complain about it? vote to block.
The constant barrage of Wikipedia-specific jargon and acronyms, all on its own, is enough to turn off most people.
Wikipedia's culture has very much evolved away from everyman's resource to a rarefied and specialized discipline that requires as much specific knowledge as most jobs.
Ugh, you're that guy. Our VAXen at work have such a system and migrating off it to another CM tool while preserving 25 years of revisions is such a pain in the dick its easier for us to keep the VAXen alive.
I have 3 VAXen at work that are still on 4-hour hardware support contracts. HP has achieved legendary status among my team for being able to show up in less than 4 hours with parts in hand for them, every single time.
*Why* is so much of our science dangerous? Why not *marry* safe science if you love it so much? In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because *you are fired!*
As someone who has, many times, been told I was turned down for a position because I was "just too young," I can promise you that people under 65 enjoy no such protection.
FTR, I'm still under 30.
That means you lack experience, not that you're too young.

Unfortunately, no.
The use of materials to reduce RCS, both composites and coatings, is a closely guarded secret of materials science.
The LO paint compositions are themselves classified. Getting paint chip samples is a coup for anyone wanting to play catch-up without doing 20 years of research.

---CUT--- I'm amazed there isn't a federal call center or something for these chasers to all phone in to, and a website with realtime dopplar radar provided to them. The faster these guys report a tornado on a ground, the easier it is for the weather people to push a button for a siren or some other event. ---CUT---
There is. SKYWARN is a program run by the NWS/NOAA, local law enforcement, and private citizens that lets anyone with some basic (really basic) meterological knowledge (what a wall cloud looks like, how to spot early rotation, etc) utilize an amateur radio to call in sightings of severe and tornadic weather using thier SKYWARN volunteer designator.
NWS will turn a tornado watch into a warning based solely on observer reports.
SKYWARN is a great program, IMO. BTW, most of those awesome tornado videos you see arent from scientists, they're from storm chasers and SKYWARN people.

Drones are limited to under 400ft AGL, though.

You don't want to get on the airport unless youve bought the hangar there, otherwise the cops will be all over you.

People who use postcards may not feel the same way.

a spring and a lever have a MTBF measured in millions of cycles. RoHS-compliant electronics made with commodity parts do not.
And I buy guns with as few extraneous safeties as possible.

Now go refill this coffee. No cream, no sugar.
Age is a protected status in the US. You're going to get fired by HR if any of the old guys here you talking about how they suck because they're old.
Jesus is President and CEO, you heathen.

The UK has a Constitution? Since when?
The moral of this story is that even if you live in India, your job can always be outsourced to a barely-trained monkey.

RTFA: It was in San Jose. Many folks in California are retarded pussies, especially in large cities.
I also couldn't get MidpSSH to work,
AT&T? Me either. It's pissing me off. I can't find any information about a> why it doesnt work, or b> how to unfuck it.
If it's anything like Second Life, that's what you'll be saying a lot of.

Slackware, I'm looking at you.
No one cares, tank-nerd.
