i think (make that i am guessing) that the supposed 33 foot limit would be in drawing up the 33 feet of water. when the straw is full and the bucket is empty you'd still have to draw up the 33+ feet of water in the straw without the assistance of the water in the bucket. of course, i could be totally wrong as i usually am. i would say that the best way to do this (assuming the 50ft height) would be.
50' straw (small diam. tubing)
50' bucket with a 49' base on it.
unless i misunderstood you (which i'm now thinking i did) and you meant to have more that 1L of water in the bucket and would let the extra (>1L) water help, in which case, that would work (i think?)
there are prices marked on the shelves. these are member prices. non-members (of this co-op or any other co-op) pay a 10% surcharge. you have a card and a member number that they enter into their register to apply the "normal" member price. and if you think they're not tracking that purchase data then you're smoking something.
bugs in software can cause all sorts of problenms from the intermitent and fairly benign like a graphical glitch to something that can result in one or more deaths. Not to downplay the seriousness of the two instances of 28 deaths but how is this a newsworthy article?

3.5 million hits per month, not year, is what he's reporting. Not that it justifies the $300,000 but the number you've got is off by more than an order of magnitude.

Linus' original email linked further down makes clear the intention to track where the code came from start to finish.

Teams must provide a giant straw which reaches from the ground to Ratner's upper deck
though i suppose you could just have a long straw and a "bucket" with an extremelly thick base and just coil up the straw.
I thought it was Windows 3.x and 95 that were "pretty" wrappers around DOS and that 98 stood by itself.
that's priceless.

why do i seem to remember reading this same story and watching that same video a few months ago?

i doubt you've electrocuted yourself before. perhaps you gave yourself an electric shock?
