It kind of does if the animals are also vaccinated. That's how Belgium and Germany eliminated rabies, by spreading vaccinated bait for the foxes. It is far more difficult to achieve for the plague, though.
WTF are you talking about? I simply sold my rifle a decade ago when I got bored with shooting at cardboard targets. As a bonus I don't need to own a metal cabinet anymore.
My point is, that rudder didn't snap because of wake turbulences. It actually exceeded its requirements and design expectations (the requiremends say that it should be able to withstand 150% of the maximum expected load, it only snapped at twice the maximum load) and snapped because of excessive rudder inputs by the pilot.
What's your phone number? Because I actually do have a few examples. The socialist dictatorship of Belarus is doing much better than the liberal free market of Ukraine despite roughly comparable starting circumstances (Ukraine actually started on better terms). The socialist dictatorship of Cuba is doing somewhat better thwn the liberal democratic Jamaica. If you compare economical systems you should do that with similar countries, otherwise it would be a comparison of something else and by that logic an absolutist monarchy with the most part of the economy being family owned would be the most effective way, like in Qatar, Brunei or the UAE.
The only neutral and stable airliners are the ones with straight wings - so basically turboprops and a couple of old regional jets (Dornier 328Jet, Yak-40). All swept wing airliners need a yaw damper because they tend to Dutch roll and they also tend to pitch up a bit.
It is really ironic, I actually dislike the 737 with a passion and generally prefer Airbus to Boeing, but in these 737Max topics somehow I am pushed into this stupid position of having to explain that this shitty airplane isn't as bad as people think (or at least that their reasons for disliking it don't have much merit).
Things are different now. Back then sustainable forest management wasn't a thing, the trees were dying due to the acid rain and the wood usage used to be far more wasteful. Nowadays in the developed countries acid rain is a thing of the past, all forests are managed and thanks to the widespread usage of fibre boards and paper recycling the wood usage is far more efficient and nothing is wasted.
The first A320 accident showed that a fly by wire aircraft that overrides the pilot actually saves lifes. The pilot actively tried to stall the aircraft. Had he succeded, there likely would have been no survivors. Since the aircraft fought the pilot, it managed to decent much slower and onto the top of the trees cushioning the impact, only killing three people. This is why the flight control systems must disregard the pilot's inputs if they would put the aircraft outside of its flying envelope.
Bateman's research has also revealed that loss of control accidents are 10 times more likely to occur in non-fly-by-wire aircraft than their digitally flight-envelope-protected counterparts.
An EU rudder never snapped off in a wake turbulence. It was an American pilot using the rudder pedals like a dance dance revolution pad that broke it because he was so scared like a girl of wake turbulences.
While there are motorways without speed limits here, there is also the recommended speed of 130kph on them. Driving faster means an automatical partial fault in an accident unless the driver can clearly prove that the higher than recommended speed made no difference on the outcome.
I guess so. In a more sane world this directive would break apart the German government (since a no to upload filters is a part of the coalition contract) and would be found unconstitutional due to censorship, alas the world isn't sane at all. Who knows, maybe that directive will help bring back the libraries.
Depends on the task and the skillset, I guess. Functional languages for the really intelligent people, multiparadigm languages with a high enough abstraction level (C#, Java, whatever) code monkeys like me, script languages for the noobs and C++ with inline assembler for embedded and close to the metal stuff (that's actually still withhin the limits of the more skilled code monkeys), and let the compilers do the rest.
Also, I think you making a slight mistake putting Pascal and C into the same bucket. Pascal is, while able to do quite low level stuff (good old Turbo Pascal days, how I miss them), nevertheless a higher level language than C with more abstract structures, so, in a way, somewhat more modern (alas, very much dead).
C used to be a good language for focused functionality where performance or detailed control is important, but that was long ago. Modern computers are very different to a PDP11, yet C more or less forces them into these constraints.

Well, I think that one with OMG ponies was funny.

It's not a gun culture, more like a gun fetishism. And I say that as a former firearm owner.

Never thought I'd ever write this, but yeah.

A difference of one hour is not a big deal. And circadian rhythms are a thing until brain uploading is invented so we are definitely not past that.
I guess so. In a more sane world this directive would break apart the German government (since a no to upload filters is a part of the coalition contract) and would be found unconstitutional due to censorship, alas the world isn't sane at all.
Who knows, maybe that directive will help bring back the libraries.
They tried though, with the Central European Time zone, which is, indeed, too large - France and Spain should be in the Western European Time zone.
Maybe trivial to circumvent, but with a shitload of false positives and since it is impossible to talk with a human at Google, it might be even worse.
You do realise that youtube had upload filtering for quite a while and it had nothing whatsoever to do with the EU?

This is why low level languages don't make much sense anymore. Modern CPUs have too much intelligence and so do the compilers.

This explains it better than I ever could.
I have actually seen a bus with a passenger trailwin Tallinn, a decade or so ago. I think it was a Scania.
Nah, that fallacy doesn't work that way. Besides, your statement, is, in fact, even worse, because it is also an example of circular logic.

No true Scotsman would write insecure PHP code, right?
That's not what I meant. But in a security fuckup all planes are grounded until it is resolved.
