And this, ladies and gentlement, is the reason for Brexit.
Some people are getting sick and tired of being told by the unelected EU bureaucrats what to do. Especially after voting against it, like the Dutch and the British.
For the tech people who got fired, who gives a fuck. If I got fired tomorrow IÃ(TM)d shrug my shoulders, I get offers for jobs 24/7 because I keep my resume up to date and I am always learning new things.
Apparently this lack of viscerality is how air france 447 managed to fly into the sea and nobody noticed.
I agree with your comment. But to be fair, in the case of 447, they were flying in the coffin corner, meaning a small amount of airspeed between an aerodynamic stall due to flying to slow, and a stall due to flying too fast (yes, that exists). The first officer of that flight clearly did not recognize the state they were in and yes, essentially flew the plane to the ground.
No, it should be "Variety who?". Why the fuck does msmash link to an article with a page-sized ad instead of just linking to the statement that's in the article? Must be getting kickbacks.
Not running a checklist IS BLATANT PILOT ERROR AND GROSSLY IRRESPONSIBLE;.
Maybe if you would have checked your facts, you would have known that in the incident referenced, the air crew was overwhelmed as the MCAS failure happened shortly after take-off; i.e. at a low altitude. The issue pushed the nose down.
It is very similar to the Hudson splash; the first officer did not have sufficient time to complete the ditch checklist as it has been written to be completed at a higher altitude.
This is what happens when people with no skills and neck tattoos have to make, what used to be entry level jobs, their career. Then all the SJWs "fight" (hah) for what they want to call a 'living wage'.
Having worked at Ericsson for 5 years, I can tell you this: the nerds are not the problem. The problem is that in Ericsson, every engineer is managed by multiple managers. Instead of the normal pyramid where you have let's say 10 engineers and 1 manager, Ericsson has an upside down pyramid. Each engineer has multiple managers that each want their own projects to take priority. Not to mention that the engineer:manager ratio is waaaay off.
Not to mention the fact that promotions take place based on speaking the right language. And by that I mean: speaking Swedish.
I quite Ericsson in 2013 and never looked back. And never will.
It just goes to show that DJI drones can't bring down a jetliner.
Sunday, Oct 21, 2018. San Francisco, CA.
Authorities are investigating the crash of an airliner short of SFO's 28L runway, around 10am in the morning. The airliner declared an emergency 25 minutes prior, due to an failure of its right engine. Apparently, a large crowd of rubbernecks came to the shores of the San Francisco Bay to see the stricken plane perform an emergency landing. Soon, a 4 pound DJI drone appeared over the Bay, capturing the crowd and the airplane on video.
As the airliner descended and was only a quarter mile from the runway, the drone collided with the airliner's left engine, causing it to fail as well. Now without power, the plane was unable to make it to the runway and crashed into the sea wall just short of 28L
Emergency crews rushed to the scene, only to find no survivors.
And because/. is infested with EUSSR socialists, you get downmodded. Just like this post will be.
Let's face it, the EUSSR is nothing more than a open market hating near-communist entity. I welcome the day that Google says: Fuck It, we'll stop doing business in Europe. Watch how those fucked up politicians start whining. As well as the poor fuckers that didn't vote for them (remember, the EU was created against the voters wishes).
It wasn't illegal adopted, it was passed into legislation by the elected legislatures of all the member states.
It was passed by the elected legislature indeed, BUT, and this is a wide-ass booty butt: against the clear wishes of the electorates in two countries.
I was a Dutch citizen at the time and voted against it. The elected legislatures at that time ignored the directive of the electorate to vote against the EU constitution.
It's one thing to be an elected member of parliament and empowered to pass laws of national significance. It's another thing to pass a law or adopt a treaty against the majority of voters who clearly voted against it. That is by definition undemocratic. Hence, the adoption of the EU constitution was illegal, undemocratic and as a result all consecutive laws are illegal as well (fruits of the poisonous tree).
They are 100% undemocratic and in violation of the Dutch law which prohibited these actions at the time. And guess what, the dutch Democratic party (D66) voted to abolish these types of referenda this year.
That's why I said: F The Netherlands, F the EU, I'll get asylum in the U.S. Here I can vote for my State senators who represent my State, AND I can vote for my district representative who represents me in the House of Representatives. The U.S. is way more democratic than the EUSSR for that reason alone.
Political views are part of life. I don't need Emil to tell me what is appropriate to discuss and what is not. In fact, it is inappropriate for/. to push this stupid silencing agenda. As long as a discussion is respectful, it is appropriate everywhere.
Europe spends a lot of time trying to ban, regulate and/or tax things in other countries.
This. It's about time the EUSSR reconsiders what it tries to do. The EU as an institution is an undemocratic entity. Its "constitution" was illegally adopted, despite its citizens overwhelmingly voting against it.
I'd argue that this is the BEST argument against socialism. It's nothing more than the government taking my honest earned money under the threat of a gun and using it to spend it on money who did not earn the same amount.

This is nothing new. It is a recurring topic, especially after Asiana in SF. Hand flying is a no-no these days so skills go away.

No it doesn't. It's been blocking a ton of legitimate emails lately.
Why link to Engadget when you can link to the actual article itself? https://security.googleblog.co...

The court that does not understand anything about the matter they're ruling on, of course.

Somebody didn't read the summary.

A link tax is completely retarded
Scrolled too far for this.
Ergo: the EUSSR is retarded.
It is time to replace BGP
Surely, we can use EIGRP for the interwebs.
You, sir, need to go see the network doctor for a good paddling with the cluebat.

The WIPO panel
Except, that if you actually read it, it says:
Douglas M. Isenberg
Sole Panelist
And interestingly, this same "judge" also "prosecutes" at the same "court": http://world-intellectual-prop...
So yeah, sure this is independent. If I would that family, I'd sue in a regular court. WIPO is a farce.
no, the winners are the european citizens.
The EU cititizens already lost when Brussel illegally staged a coup against the parliamentary democracies of its nation members.
50,000 pounds paid directly to each party ID hacked, and 50,000 each paid directly to UK.
And from TFA:
Albeit, the fine is only 500,000 Pound (roughly $6,62,000)
AC: 100,000 pounds fine!
/. editor: $6,62,000 fine!
/, reader: wow, $6,620,000 fine!
TFA: 500,000 pounds fine!
