You don't even need to enter the realm of sci fi actually.

"Gung Ho" (1986) and "Die Hard" (1988) both feature Japanese corporate overlords doing things as core elements of the plot. Not necessarily evil, its just kinda assumed that Japan would take over large parts of even the US Economy back then.

Japan's "economic miracle", although it was cut short by the 1990s, was an incredible rise. Japan is still one of the major world economic powers, in large part due to its humongous growth.
Ultimately it doesn't matter if your engineers don't give a fuck if management will sabatoge their efforts when they do care. Only if you have management who won't forgo quality for ticks can you really blame the dev.

> Otherwise you have to trust someone that the thing does what it says it does.

I mean, this is always going to be the case with modern computers. No one writes EVERYTHING themselves, so they have to trust someone else. You are trusting the microcode on the CPU, the system calls on your OS, your compiler/interpreter, your standard library.... I get that this is a different sort/level of trust than trusting a third party metrics system, but it isn't fundamentally different. It is all about trusting someone else's work.
For this reason I sometimes wish that multiple links could be merged into the same thread.
In aerospace, lack of proper requirements in the flight software would be a system engineering problem... a semantic difference really, but important nonetheless.
System engineering and validation has a metric ton of 'tools' to catch bad system design and improper algorithm implementation...

I really question what the hell happened here:
- Did they just pencil whip the FMEA on this or what? (failure mode and effects analysis)

- What happened with the Hardware-in-the-loop flight simulation when they tested the scenario where the AoA sensor givesg spurious data, both high and low (but especially high)? I mean... they did test this, right?
Seems like they do just fine with big golden parachutes. Why tie their compensation to the company's performance when they can just have a big payout whenever they leave under any circumstances?
Speaking anecdotally, sleep deprivation is the biggest immune system damper for me. Often it’s hard for me to judge the effects of stress per se, because sleep deprivation also leads to stress and vice versa.
A lot of that speculative growth comes from Turkey's comparatively younger population (hence more productive hours worked each day), and their continued population growth. Germany's demographics are sliding the other way, with an aging and stagnating population.
You are sincerely suggesting that software engineers have a stronger sense of QA than aerospace engineers?
Those are good points. However, I do think we will look back at the large amount of postmodern literature inspired by Foucault and deidre as obfuscatory to knowledge seeking.

They essentially wrap simple concepts within a format that require immense effort to parse, maybe to present an intellectual challenge or to obfuscate what is actually said. Great for staying fashionable as a tool for showing academic belonging in Parisian coffee shops due to the amount of studying needed to pierce the veil, but not so great for knowledge seeking.

To me it seems like what they are saying are:

- culture is adapted to get the marginal to conform to the majority (Foucault marginal sexual identity that caused him to attempt suicide)

- culture corrupts the pristine child’s mind (Rousseau inspired)

- either you apply cultural power or you are a victim to cultural power

These are interesting to some degree, but not when used to argue for a deconstruction of all experiences into identity groups like postmodernists have.

I think they’ve abandoned their academic duty to try to construct world views contiguous both within themselves and to the larger culture.

For cases where the platform supports C++ (and its standard library), there is kind of a corresponding "checked C++"[1] that also supports the "completely incremental" migration approach. (And obviously supports "array view" type objects.)

Just as a warning, it was pretty trivial to be able to look at your java script and get the csv file that you described.

I don't think disabling MCAS (or electric stab trim) should be routine. Given most airliners have given up putting trim wheels in the cockpit I'm sure the reliability of electric trim is very high.

Reading between the lines this system was added as a bit of an after thought. There are plenty of systems which have control of trim so I think they probably didn't give it the respect due to stabilizer trim.

There is always the possibility we haven't got the full story. I'm going to check the full preliminary report from Lion air but from what I've read there is some strange behaviours on the trim system that aren't fully explained yet, even by this half baked fix.
It's more likely than you think.

It's related to age, as you would expect from any contagious virus that's ubiquitous in the environment and doesn't go away. 0.01% of newborns have HSV-1 [1]; 90% of 50-year-olds have it [2].

I believe that is because the best Sci-Fi always struck a balance of being magical or whimsical, of course, but not being so farfetched that one couldn't imagine how they could be created.

It is a perfectly sensible threat model to exclude government intervention. Perhaps more sensible, on the grounds that the government can always make your life hard in other ways, and the government can get away with not following the law. There are lots of meaningful attackers who are unaffiliated with the government, and it's absolutely worth protecting against them.

Interesting software. My spidey sense tells me that your team will need at least 1 FTE just to massage whatever kind of workflow is required to get stuff in Jira to play nice with this. These tools that promise insight into what is actually happening within prod/eng teams are always really great on paper but in actuality I have never seen one work.

"Yeah so there is a dusty old EC2 instance running on so-and-so's old IAM role (who is now terminated, but we can't kill their IAM or things will break) running this .jar which tries to take our JIRA stuff from these 3 projects and merge it into a pseudo "fake" project named "KPI BOARD DO NOT EDIT" that gets sync'd with a lambda function every hour to AgileCraft via a Google sheet. If this box isn't running then the KPI reports don't get generated in metabase and the board is going to lose their shit. Make sure to check the disk with df next time you login because it fills up ocassionally."

That extra 8ft of frontage is also extra backyard, which many people enjoy. I don't think people choose to live so far apart because they have cars, they live so far apart because they want to, and the car makes it possible. I suspect many would love to live even further apart if they could.

She deserves no sympathy what so ever. Much like cyclist, Lance Armstrong, she perpetrated out-right fraud on her investors, employees, and customers and threatened to ruin them financially and legally if they exposed her. The kicker here, however, is that the fraudulent product she was marketing had the potential of seriously impacting the life and health of those who used her product. Trusting the results could result in actually missing a diagnosis of serious issues, resulting in delayed treatment, bad health, and early death or costing the patient money for treatment of a condition they didn't actually have.

Her motives may have been pure early on but once it became apparent that her product simply didn't work, any action taken beyond closing up shop or changing direction and investing in a new approach was unforgivable. In the sentencing to come, following the trial, I hope the judge throws the book at her with a substantial prison sentence and the loss of any ill-gotten gains.

Like I said, could, it probably depends on actual use... DOM navigation for read or update can be optimized, but depending on how it is done may not work as well. React itself is moving towards diffing against the browsers real DOM iirc. Browsers have gotten a lot better than in the past. That said, actually comparing each node for updates against large trees may be more costly than updating and diffing against a partial abstraction.

The estimates I've seen were more 1/3 to 1/2 of people being infected but it is very common because most people engage in unprotected kissing with a number of partners. I have, in fact, never heard of anyone using a barrier while kissing so I don't think you can expect that someone with HSV-1 to also have other diseases.
Most light GA aircraft have a trim system that works by using a smaller trim surface to aerodynamically deflect the larger control surface. In such a system, the horizontal stabilizer has a fixed relationship to the fuselage. Later 182s definitely have this system (I owned a 182K for 16 years).

Some light GA aircraft have systems with jackscrews that deflect the horizontal stabilizer as in airliners. These systems are more efficient aerodynamically, but can overpower pilot input, at least in theory. The aero trim system (in prior paragraph) cannot.

I believe generally we are expected for some altered arrival to altercate that there are consumers and that after that there are protocols.
