3 years first job contract. Should just as well sign up for the Military, be 24 when entering college and have it paid for. Health insurance will not be a problem.
That is an air stream indicator as seen in gliders to this day. It may indicated stall, high angle of attack, side slip, falling backwards, or be stuck by liquid water or ice in an incorrect position. Every sensor including windshield being frosted over is trained for, these crews for some reason could not find strait and level after the first stall and got themselves into the MCAS flight regime with power pitching them up in a deep stall (like every 737) and fighting a secondary system.
No matter how much one wants to jam it to Boeing entering a stall condition outside of wind sheer is pilot operating error. Now lowering the nose immediately and slowly increasing power is all 737 basics. However this went on into deep stall we will soon see but the lack of understanding of a checklist in their hands is a major factor.
I as a private pilot jump through 40 years of aviation history depending on what is ready to go at the place I rent from. It is my responsibility to be familiar and use all checklists. Every single plane I rent I stall and recover from at least 6 times, sometimes with a flight instructor. mostly without at altitude with huge safety margin. This is more than my 737 pilot friend has ever herd the stall horn during his 20 year commercial career. My three and only considerations on departure is clear ground obstacles, conflict with other aircraft and do not stall on departure. These 4 pilots had do not stall on departure task and all failed.
Stalling a large commercial aircraft during departure is a bad thing. From day one in a piper cub the stall regime and recovery is trained in. Deep Stalling a commercial aircraft during departure without a mile of air under you is typically fatal. Both flights something more than a computer driven recovery went wrong. MCAS making only one attempt at cleaning up the pilot mistakes seems to be the fix that was going on before the second crash. Adding both sensors to the MCAS, clear indications MCAS is doing something seems reasonable and prudent additional aid but letting poor pilot standards off the hook will be fatal in the future.
Volvo GPS units already have speed zone change notifications on the dashboard. I rented the 2017 SUV turboD in Germany and it did perform well to 200kmph. The smaller Volvos I have driven here are not worth the US volvo premium. Volvo might just be in cost cutting mode and limiting to a class of tire that is cheaper than a 140mph rated one.
WE are wealthy and like things that wealthy people like. We make no more or less polution than the rest of the worlds top 10%.
US cities are farther apart and US roads are long and strait because we found the German roads to be useful in getting from place to place to view our rescue job. We drive everywhere because we lack public transport by 100+ years of choice. And we have this luxury called personal space where we do not have to interact with everyone at train/bus stations.
Even the poorest of us drive to our vacations because our vacations require a car on the other end outside of 10 cities.
I invite to spend your tourist dollars here. I certainly have spent my share in places from Rome to Munich to Dublin That part of the EU burns just as much petrochemicals as we do in the US.
Within your race and community, for most people, it may much easier to spot the social tells of a bad physical encounter walking up to you. You are not walking up to me in colors to sell me amway.
In the general case, the support costs on that gear are 16-33% of purchase price per year. Since that gear list price has been cut in half over the past 2 year nobody can afford to take it on in a supported manner. Even free hardware would cost twice as much in 3-5 years lifetime that would be required to put it into a data center just about anywhere.
State and Local governments should externalize there compute and storage requirements, They are obviously to slow to even play in this field. If a project never takes off the cloud bills are low for the CPU and bandwidth side.
There are good Astro Martins that you see going up for sale at auctions going for unreasonable prices because they are more perfect than factory new. And then there is what is sitting in barns around the world that is in need of alot of care. Astro Martin is offering their service department a chance at servicing cars that may never be driven safely on the road again.
These are owned by people with significant sums of money to recapture a dream. Making a 90hp-105ft-lb car that had 4 carbs and electrics that were impossible to keep serviceable into a 50hp / 400 ft-lb electric car and selling a 75-85-year-old customer a 40k powertrain conversion another 20k in restoration services is the goal. Anything to get these cars into the serice bay and perhaps sell a new model to an affuent owner while just one more thing is fixed.
They obviously did not throttle you...the carrier for some reason wanted your boss specifically to die a horrible business death where he could not make contact for out of the great rural sprint/nextel black hole of 2013.
No, it is the absolutely the self-abusive Luddites who insist on going to work when Work From Home is a viable option compared to a cube farm in many industries. The other half of traffic is the older gentry driving 60 miles each way when down at the corner telemedicine would be a cheaper option if their asshole care providers would adapt.
Once you become an adult in a modern corporate culture like GenX slackers you will learn no matter what your role there is no need to be in a cube farm at 9:45 on Friday before a holiday or drive through a snowstorm to be on conference call with the other division in someplace worse. Unemployment is 3.5... nobody is going to get fired for remoting it in.
A Cellular site is never going to be the 100Gbits/sec of cheap around the neighborhood fibers...the bandwidth is not there to be bought at any price, simple physics. Network operators degrading real-time video from other vendors to sustain their revenue model. NEVER BEFORE YOU CRY.
Oh come on, if anyone wants to provide a service that chews a significant portion of a cell sector, such as a 2-4 Mbits/sec of bandwidth. Take a few thousand CPU cycles and encode it in a way so it is not identifiable to the transport as your revenue model (make it look like a SDN, bring it to the client 1000 different paths ) or partner up with the carrier with a trade they want.
At some point AWS, AZURE, whoever emerges as SDN #1 and AKI all will need to pony up a bit of cash for priority on all but the most empty 4G or the much smaller 5G cells.
The enviromentalists need to set the timeline out beyond the death of the baby boom generation, I do not know if the snowflakes can keep this up when canada, russia. US and north China score record production numbers. Even by the environmentalist's hot wet dreams, the human race will still demand heat, food and transport unless the human race cooked in their juices over a summer day that is.3C degrees hotter over a silly short 12 years.
For those of us above a certain latitude, this entire conversation is a joke. We are talking about more growing days for the most productive farmlands in the world. The folks at the equator have not been the most productive in farming modern society despite having a great growing season and near zero crop risks due to weather.
Healthcare support costs simply scale with the population if the basis for statistics is correct. More Insurance Payers/More Tax Payers for the same proportion of health effects is what the sane observer call a wash. With the medical advancement and pollution controls, the expectation is the death rate goes down the more advanced a society so the UN should be driving economic growth to get the BRICs beyond heavy industry as the core of their economic development cycle and into the cycle where local health care is the growth industry.
If the UN were worth anything they would be supporting pollution controls in emerging Africa and SE Asia industries and leave the top of the pyramid to out-compete each other in Green Technologies and construct products people actually want to pay the minor green premium for.
Heard this all before. People at the top of society telling the unwashed masses what to do.
They Say -- Stop building urban centers immediately and move out to the farm and regain the roots of your civilization.
They Say -- The intellectuals dont like it, cast them into reeducation camps until they get understand our logic is better than their logic.
They Say -- Destroy the competitive assets in your economy and place your faith in government.
They Say -- There was a less impactful way to generate power but it generated a minuscule amount of waste that can be made into a glass and rendered inert until harnless.
They Politic things like solar and wind power that are price competitive in some unique locations, but make everyone believe they need solar roots and banks of batteries.
They Say -- Ask why we cannot all be like the good folks who can power their tiny house, no kids, no AC mind you, with an overactive hamster and a birthday candle. They do not mind washing their pot funk clothes they wear on a rock next to the river.
Sorry have seen this all before.
Or
We as individuals could use the most cost efficent solutiion at the time seeing that Solar and Wind will cut this generations carbon footprint by 40% and be cheaper. Put a resonable amount of research dollars towards safter fission lifecycle and make it a priorty to not to fly when a teleconfrence and a powerpoint could do for a work meeting.
Not one of these groups comes out...ever... and says the human race as a collective has done a preaty good job going from the steam age, the age of steel to the age of data networks. The VPN and the laptop have save more carbon emmissions and traffic jams than any other technology deployed in the first world. No more is a middle manager driving a 3 ton car into the urban center so you can answer a phone in a cube.
As robots take over transportation and delivering food to our pieholes the overall need for velocity of mass of products will slow and the enegy expended drops.
Nobody who wants power can come out and say a resonably good society is forming without much goverment input on a lot of fronts.
You know those clear plastic cakes plates that you use for between 1 and 3 minutes then recycle to get cake into your guest's cake hole, and you wife of about an hour cannot be seen delivering that via a paper plate. I bought 150 for my wedding at a cost of about 15% what the grocer wanted to charge me for them in some odd number of plates per package. 14 or something like that.
Guess what, Amazon Cake plates did their job as they were 100% perfect without the grocer's odd counts. My cake plates arrived on time and had a smile on the wrapper and my fiance had a tracking number for every item on her list at 3am 4 days before the reception.
I find it wonderful some Amazon contractor is taking gross delivery and packing to the needs of a logistics company and more important the needs of the customer and not shelf space considerations at a grocery store that give us 12 hot dog buns to a package and 8 hotdogs.
Algorithms are used in navigation solutions, PID loops are robotics and manipulation of the real world by software because those feedback rules are just combinations of math and dirt simple physics. Part of just a few feedback or other previous state locked loops. 99.99% of all human automation works perfectly for years by limits or corrective feedback.
Medicine outside just a few drugs and trauma treatments cannot enter the mid 90% in treatment success. The 10% shortfall is amazing in trend finding in medicine, sports betting and long-term trading and would be a liability in algorithms that could be held to a legal standard for such things as weight and balance limiters in tower cranes. Considering the two problems sets in the same class of algo is insane.
Modern medicine is statistics feedback and fails at when the best of intentions run headlong into "lies, damned lies, and statistics" because the underlying process and thousands of biological feedback loops that are not well understood in the way we understand the forces of torque and gravity on the the 10,000 parts of a tower crane.
Students and their Parents since 2008 lived through some pretty tough times in most of the first world. The economy has been flat outside of China and STEM for a decade with little job growth for those without a STEM degree, while STEM students make twice the national average wages in year 5 of their careers. A history major with a degree from 1976 is still looking for a better job outside of the public sector while the STEM worker is in post-retirement consulting or doing nothing beach combing. In 1980s parents only had one short economic downturn to demonstrate the fruitlessness of a German romance poetry degree.
Now if we can wipe the standalone education degree from curriculum we would have better paid teachers in high school prepared to teach STEM to 14 to 18-year-olds. Also with carrer moblility one can give up the Mechanical Engineering track and fall into a IT track with all of 4 days of loss effort and bring a diversity that IT departments can use.
Actually up to a point harder the rock the less effort it takes to bore and place the water impenetrable liner as odds of collapse are very small in hard rock. That limestone rock, when crushed is also the cement ag and will be hauled away to build the tunnel an other things. Chicago has Northwests Indiana tons of surplus Steele Slag at hand, known as Klinker and perhaps the cheapest Portland cement prices in North America because of the availability of the steelmaking byproduct and cheap limestone near the surface.
Musk certainly will examine and lean on Chicago's "Deep Tunnel" veterans that is much larger scale project to find a realistic cost of building a 15-25 mile tunnel far below existing services. It will a fine show of the municipal cleptocracy that is Chicago when it is determined who "owns" the results.
Have you ever stepped in a corporate data centre of scale, not some 16 rack cute data center with a pair of 4500s. It is not all white vans and rack and stackers.
It is not a nice place to sit in with a delivered sandwich and you tend to want to go out and eat lunch and dinner place away from the whine of a fans and drives. We techs spend tremendous amounts on food and drinks localy at every hour of the day. We spend days in hotels rooms waiting for just the right part or the correct tech at the other end of the phone, sometimes to fix something that could have been done remotely. Vendors put people on site just to handhold.
There is no small town that cannot benefit from a datacenter paying utility taxes in enormous proportions. Besides a heat plume from the chillers and a workforce that arrives at all hours of the day it is a warehouse holding thing with service contracts as it moves less than a ton of gear in and out a day.
If you local business can build a Tesco warehouse with a bit of cold storage you can build a data centre shell and temp control plant. The shelving of an average food warehouse is much more monumental task than raised floor (if anyone stil does that) and racks due to the weight of each unit. The only difference is in the electrical and data centre infrastructure that comes in many smaller boxes to get racked and stacked in a said warehouse with racks and not moved for the next 3 to seven years, then it will be racked and stacked by the locals who work the datacenter day to day. Hell even WIPRO will hire smart hands local for a big client. If you start never being in a data center you can be the pro in the state of the art in the march that is data centre commissioning.
The average local electrical contractor is going to make a killing for a year and be equipped to build another 3 data centres or modern warehouses at a discount to the national competitors in the same office park.
Time to fix an autopilot command defect beyond the FAA ATP flight standard on an airplane with a professional experience ATP trained crew. About 25-35 seconds, typically 1-3 miles and 400 feet from assigned altitude at 250kts. The navigation aids are external to the flight director and self-testing and validating and basically straight or performance envelope limited commands in 3-dimensional space. Basically aircraft autopilot standard keeps pilots in a 400x400x16000 foot box with any amount of consistency over the period of an hour at cruise. The primary navigation information is GPS accurate to 1/100th of that box.
Time to fix a Telsa autopilot command defect is on the order of 1-3 seconds and the deviation from lane center need be no more than 4 feet (quarter of a lane) at 50kts. The navigation cues to the vehicle are image and lidar detection of objects under any lighting, any color, any weather conditions with or without 4 foot tumbleweeds. The tesal product keeps the pilot within a 10x30x5 foot box at one-tenth the speed with the odds of a crash because of deviating from that box being high over trip with factors of ten more obstacles. The navaid is a mix of 4+ sensors with blah repeatability.
The Tesla autopilot is immensely more complex than the aircraft autopilot just to position itself in the center of an unmarked lane. The people killed by aircraft autopilots are typically pilots with less than 10 hours of systems training for the type and less than 4 hours of experience with the autopilot in actual conditions. Tesla offers what a youtube video to train on the operation of system navigating within 4 feet of a movable barrier at speeds close to 100 feet per second.
The remarkable thing is that Tesla autopilot has not killed more people.
You are only getting slightly better than what was to be enforced CAFE standard of 2020 on a 400lb motorcycle. Without a turbodesiel 45-50mpg in actual driving (80mph Highway) conditions was not going to be in anything larger than what we call out here in flyover country a "city car" and it would not carry wheel/tire combos with all-weather capabilities Where I live I need 6-8 inches of ground clearance to avoid that front air dam becoming a snowplow from NOV 1 - April 1. California having a diffrent standard for the porn valley buyer is ok with me, but I need an option for the snow belt so 50 states of regulation do not sound all that bad.
ITIL in is operational basis is find something that does not work. Document how something does not work and form a procedure for avoiding the item that does not work. Then once separated from production sit on users sit on one's hands until development casts a new solution. In this way, it is similar to licensing, take the professional offline until given back one's credentials. No exposer to the licensing board of the corrective actions, just assurances that the licensed professional is corrected.
The cancer radon craze was a real thing in my region and died out when federal goverment stopped paying quickly directly to contractors for remediation of poor communities. Radon affected houses were poorly ventilated, typically had mold in the basement and more prone to all sorts of pests. Billions of dollars were spent on some suspect remediations in the 1980s and 1990s to take care of IMO a secondary marker in a public health concern. The people who lived in those homes were poorer (had unrepaired cracks in their basement slabs) and typically lead sedentary lifestyles, thus was presented in the media as a big deal in the upper midwest USA. The radon studies failed to control for all that for the first 3 decades and by the time anyone did the math the cost was $700k per predicted life saved, and nothing on life expectancy in the regions with uranium in the soil. The scientific joy about radon, with its short half-life and particle it is immensely detectable in concentrations from absolutely deadly to far below natural outdoor windy day levels.
The entire health effects of radon was derived from lung cancer rate of native American uranium miners who smoked in the 50s. Rip that one apart from a while and you will discover we know nothing about the health effects ionizing radiation from radon. These mice are the uranium miners, more than likely exposed/not exposed to things that affect rats well being.
You do not even have to book it. Just read who booked, introduce yourself and claim you are or showed up to meet that person for a 1 on 1. Either that person will be so shocked they will claim a mistake and run for the hills or you have some networking time with another real player.
Looks like someone did not pay attention in history class or never has been to West Virginia to throw an unqualified southern state label around. Could WV be a sotherns state? YES....BUT.
West Virginia was the part of Virginia that the secessionists either did not or cared not to control during the civil war. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... Most of the state's politics are focused today towards re-establishing a diverse manufacturing economy well situated to be part of the manufacturing process for the remarkable number of industries along the Ohio River.

Vendors put people on site just to handhold. There is no small town that cannot benefit from a datacenter paying utility taxes in enormous proportions. Besides a heat plume from the chillers and a workforce that arrives at all hours of the day it is a warehouse holding thing with service contracts as it moves less than a ton of gear in and out a day.
If you local business can build a Tesco warehouse with a bit of cold storage you can build a data centre shell and temp control plant. The shelving of an average food warehouse is much more monumental task than raised floor (if anyone stil does that) and racks due to the weight of each unit. The only difference is in the electrical and data centre infrastructure that comes in many smaller boxes to get racked and stacked in a said warehouse with racks and not moved for the next 3 to seven years, then it will be racked and stacked by the locals who work the datacenter day to day. Hell even WIPRO will hire smart hands local for a big client. If you start never being in a data center you can be the pro in the state of the art in the march that is data centre commissioning. The average local electrical contractor is going to make a killing for a year and be equipped to build another 3 data centres or modern warehouses at a discount to the national competitors in the same office park.
Time to fix an autopilot command defect beyond the FAA ATP flight standard on an airplane with a professional experience ATP trained crew. About 25-35 seconds, typically 1-3 miles and 400 feet from assigned altitude at 250kts. The navigation aids are external to the flight director and self-testing and validating and basically straight or performance envelope limited commands in 3-dimensional space. Basically aircraft autopilot standard keeps pilots in a 400x400x16000 foot box with any amount of consistency over the period of an hour at cruise. The primary navigation information is GPS accurate to 1/100th of that box.
Time to fix a Telsa autopilot command defect is on the order of 1-3 seconds and the deviation from lane center need be no more than 4 feet (quarter of a lane) at 50kts. The navigation cues to the vehicle are image and lidar detection of objects under any lighting, any color, any weather conditions with or without 4 foot tumbleweeds. The tesal product keeps the pilot within a 10x30x5 foot box at one-tenth the speed with the odds of a crash because of deviating from that box being high over trip with factors of ten more obstacles. The navaid is a mix of 4+ sensors with blah repeatability.
The Tesla autopilot is immensely more complex than the aircraft autopilot just to position itself in the center of an unmarked lane. The people killed by aircraft autopilots are typically pilots with less than 10 hours of systems training for the type and less than 4 hours of experience with the autopilot in actual conditions. Tesla offers what a youtube video to train on the operation of system navigating within 4 feet of a movable barrier at speeds close to 100 feet per second.
The remarkable thing is that Tesla autopilot has not killed more people.
You are only getting slightly better than what was to be enforced CAFE standard of 2020 on a 400lb motorcycle. Without a turbodesiel 45-50mpg in actual driving (80mph Highway) conditions was not going to be in anything larger than what we call out here in flyover country a "city car" and it would not carry wheel/tire combos with all-weather capabilities Where I live I need 6-8 inches of ground clearance to avoid that front air dam becoming a snowplow from NOV 1 - April 1. California having a diffrent standard for the porn valley buyer is ok with me, but I need an option for the snow belt so 50 states of regulation do not sound all that bad.
ITIL in is operational basis is find something that does not work. Document how something does not work and form a procedure for avoiding the item that does not work. Then once separated from production sit on users sit on one's hands until development casts a new solution. In this way, it is similar to licensing, take the professional offline until given back one's credentials. No exposer to the licensing board of the corrective actions, just assurances that the licensed professional is corrected.
The cancer radon craze was a real thing in my region and died out when federal goverment stopped paying quickly directly to contractors for remediation of poor communities. Radon affected houses were poorly ventilated, typically had mold in the basement and more prone to all sorts of pests. Billions of dollars were spent on some suspect remediations in the 1980s and 1990s to take care of IMO a secondary marker in a public health concern. The people who lived in those homes were poorer (had unrepaired cracks in their basement slabs) and typically lead sedentary lifestyles, thus was presented in the media as a big deal in the upper midwest USA. The radon studies failed to control for all that for the first 3 decades and by the time anyone did the math the cost was $700k per predicted life saved, and nothing on life expectancy in the regions with uranium in the soil. The scientific joy about radon, with its short half-life and particle it is immensely detectable in concentrations from absolutely deadly to far below natural outdoor windy day levels.
The entire health effects of radon was derived from lung cancer rate of native American uranium miners who smoked in the 50s. Rip that one apart from a while and you will discover we know nothing about the health effects ionizing radiation from radon. These mice are the uranium miners, more than likely exposed/not exposed to things that affect rats well being.
You do not even have to book it. Just read who booked, introduce yourself and claim you are or showed up to meet that person for a 1 on 1. Either that person will be so shocked they will claim a mistake and run for the hills or you have some networking time with another real player.
Looks like someone did not pay attention in history class or never has been to West Virginia to throw an unqualified southern state label around. Could WV be a sotherns state? YES....BUT. West Virginia was the part of Virginia that the secessionists either did not or cared not to control during the civil war. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... Most of the state's politics are focused today towards re-establishing a diverse manufacturing economy well situated to be part of the manufacturing process for the remarkable number of industries along the Ohio River.
