in my rational view your 'rational' view is just irrational. Your post as AC so I cannot be sure but most of people using similar arhuments (although not all) are irrational bigots.
ot as it is: your judgement of first language may be correct ut based on flawed argument of one badly used word which more likely than not was a typo and not conscious usage.
It was mujahedin in Afghanistan and it all well relatively well. At least Ruskis went back home. In Iraq it was a magnitude bigger fuckup than in Afghanistan and it looks like it will take a while to bring it back to the 'acceptable' level. It is also closer to the Western world. I am waiting in excitement where is the next place US is going to 'help'. I guess this may be Ukraine - it is again a bit closer to center of civilization and although the opponent lacks jihadist credentials it has a friend with nukes just across a border. I know that I am now a thankless bastard and apparent Putin's shill but I would prefer if US military tried to help Canada or Mexico. I am sure there are enough targets in these two countries to keep the boys and girls busy for a while.
I think it is Putin's dick out there and CIA says it is small. Now I know what all the quzillions of tallars or whatever they call the funny money of today are going into. I also know now that our dicks are bigger than Russian, whatever interpretation of this sentence you take it must be correct!
I think this is yet another proof how devious and barbaric Russian regime really is. We cannot allow Putin to do such things like putting (???) a satellites in orbit and doing maneuvering with them. Only one country on earth is allowed to do such things. If we allow Russia commit acts of such treachery all sorts of bad things may happen or even Klingons may materialize in orbit!!!!
You mean that Apple does not see any business benefit in selling customer data? I suppose you maybe true as considering its history the company prefers to use such data itself I suppose. So in some sense you have a point. I still consider the comment, that I was responding to, funny. Not because I dislike Apple in any special way but I dislike corporations. They may be necessary to support our wasteful way of life but I still dislike them all and trust them to do terrible things as long as the bosses think this brings them profit and they can get away with negative consequences if any.
and they were dying like flies for millennia too. we have arranged and are paying for these services to help us out when need be. Some of those things that happen (fire or stroke) can kill or maim if not dealt with fast. This said it is indeed true that you need to accept that accidents happen also to such emergency centers. You can also expect that in this day and age such centers are handled in a way assuring redundancy. There many things that failed apparently. This is an occasion to improve. For some it is occasion to course and blame game (Putin would be a nice candidate to blame). For you this is just a statement of surprise why others are so shocked.
Sir you are damned naive. We have no money for shit like reason and qa. potentially shippable product will be shipped as soon as it compiles and sometimes even without fulfilling this requirement. Actually in a project I work for we reached release and discuss happily faults on a fault list while a customer on which our industrial application got installed for testing gave us another very short but not empty list with faults that it sees as a show stoppers. The lists do not overlap on any single point. Which of the lists would you start discussing at the release meeting? Yes bravo - the ones on the little problems list. I actually had some designers denying that the customer list existed, that the faults on the list existed and one stubborn guy claimed that the problems on the list have been fixed albeit question about how that was verified was left without answer. The funny thing is - 2 of these faults I have seen before even the preliminary software version our customer got was packaged. Now you say this is anecdotal and has no bearing on wider production practice - I dare to differ on that based on experience I had over last 10y.
I agree with you at least as far as to say that if need be such considerations have to be made at some point during development. Often enough they are not because people live their fantasy of craftsmanship or being an artisan doing some fancy stuff where hard rules of reality do not apply.
In other words: there are no requirements in the jungle. There is only you and your agile team in search of holy Grail of software development practice (BTW: I think agile manifesto is actually nicely organized set of principles of what is important but none of the agilists I worked for over the years, did actually read it).
this is OT but this and other SW faults of a kid are getting more and more common because we value working software over comprehensive documentation without understanding what the hell that means thus we do not have either.
so if there is no emergency calls what then? we all go suck your dick because we have to follow some rule that assumes emergency calls work? let us say that 30% of those 6k people that could not reach emergency number came to your dick for sucking you will be terribly sorry for expressing silly views on how the rules are superior to reality.
Now seriously. For years already my landline is an IP device that does some fancy SIP messaging. It does not even have its power supply coming from the line - it is all coming from the power supply of a DLS modem. I am not even sure if I could get this old fashion phone line anywhere in Europe except maybe in UK but this is not Europe so it does not count. I recall there was some research (or exercise) on this last year (in Germany) where they found out that switch to fully digital communication of emergency services made their communication capabilities extend for maybe 10h or so in case of complete blackout. It used to be days - If memory serves well, then old digital telephony exchange had to have batteries for 2 days of service or so, but I am an old fart so maybe that is a result of my Alzheimer. Actually that is the trend in all other areas (alzheimer and short term abilities to sustain service under duress). We assume that the rest of the world stays online and is able to help. If disaster strikes province in which I live and all surrounding ones and quarantine is assumed - we will have no food in two days or so - thanx to JIT delivery. The same with fuel and water. VW had to stop production after a few days of stopped air traffic (Island vulcano with odd and lengthy name exploded at the wrong moment). UK gov had to call in army after 100 or 200 hauliers went on strike few years back - no fuel and JIT delivery of food etc. This has something to do with computers and interwebs indeed.
The problem like the one in TFA has become a big problem because you do not you have a dispatcher in your county and each county but one for 7 states so any small glitch that happens will cause significant misery. Redundancy has to be built in. Sadly everytime I hear redundancy I see all the L2 loops of the past.
if you had a gun as one proposed you could have shoot her which kinds of proves the point of rather having population all armed instead of spending money on 911 and some other commie crap.
but interwebs were designed to survive nuclear holocaust not some small emergency. If a nuclear holocaust occurs they will still be operating I am sure....
if you shoot a fire maniac before he manages to start the fire then a gun helps indeed. Not sure how that goes for delivering babies - shoot a man before he ejaculates?
but you would have to know this in advance, hmm
you know some so you know'em all??? wow - great that it works for you.
If you do not have to cope with the problem in your head yourself then maybe you should not talk for those that do. Besides I do not have impression that passive-aggressive and asperger are mutually exclusive. Sitting in my mom's cellar can make anybody aggressive or passive-aggressive or whatever DSM authors think is diagnosable.
this is a nerd's site so many here have some minor or not so minor mental problem that makes them wandering off the given path. That is part of it being interesting.
In this world somebody will own it. It is better if a good government does (and everybody to use it) than some asshat with a team of scalp hunters dressed as lawyers would. Just shows what big pharma actually does for the money they get. Not much it seems.

why is parent not modded funny?
forcing works better then superior solution, thank you
if TEH bomb is big enough, then it does not matter whether the order is in an understandable form or not.
only two? All of them should be sacrificed!

if he had any brains he would have become a lawyer as for politician or CEO you need have a huge psychotic problem to become successful.

I thought for a while this was a joke.....
Other than that it seems to discuss quarantine and no it did not work back then.
you mean the bodies are already in soupy form that makes further processing much easier. Interesting albeit slightly disgusting thought.
