JohnFen's answer addresses the incident response side. The other half is that you want to fix problems upstream to prevent these incidents in the first place. A general process that you should take and edit:

1. Run blameless post-mortems to figure out what caused the incident and more importantly what actions would have prevented the incident from occurring in the first place
2. Prioritize doing the corrective action. This can be as simple as checklists for specific procedures or could be the addition of automated tests/static analysis/linting or automating a procedure. Focus on low-lift quick wins here if possible. You should be selling these corrective actions as required maintenance such as changing the oil in your car.
3. Rinse and repeat.

For SAAS products some things that really make a difference are automated test suites, monitoring, and _documented_ procedures
You could say that there are two main aspects to epilepsy research. One is on the medical side, surgery, drugs, etc., one is more about understanding the phenomenon by studying brain activity and how it behaves.
The two are very strongly connected, of course, but the second can also be tackled by engineers, mathematicians, physicists or computer scientists.

You'd be surprised by how many different people work on this subject!
I learned Vue first because I didn't want to have to learn a reactive framework and Typescript at the same time. I've made several 'complete' apps with Vue / ES6 and .Net Core.

For a new job possibility I have now been learning Angular and Typescript and I am really liking how much Typescript simplifies the boilerplate of components etc. My angular components are much more readable than my deeply nested Vue components.

There are some class component plugins for Vue 2.x but it seems that this is being dropped now for 3.x in favor of composition functions. Looking at code samples it seems to mix the worst of both worlds to me.

I'm liking how much less cognitive load I've had with just going the 'angular way' whereas with Vue I had to make a lot of decisions for your basic needs (HTTP data access, form validation etc.)
Don't apologise for this; your dissection, even if only a comment, was a tremendously enjoyable read. Well done for putting in the effort to research this!
I will ride with the high beams on during the day

Please quit doing that. It makes it extremely difficult to judge your distance. You think you're doing it to avoid having me pull out, and ironically I'm more likely to pull out because I haven't the faintest idea how far away that blazing ball of light is.

Seriously, do people that do things like this never look to see what it looks like from the other side? Or is it the power of the ol' cargo cult/urban legend/"common sense" (see also: "loud pipes save lives")?

I also run small projector/fog lamps down low to form a light triangle

That's what's going to save you, not being obnoxious with your high beam. It's a not-common pattern, and it establishes that you're not a car with a headlight out.
> One, its contained within a very small area (which increases its lethality but substantially decreases your risk of exposure).

There are two cases to consider. Accident and normal waste. Accidents aren't nearly as contained. Normal waste is contained for now, but what about long term? We are looking at time length longer than any government has been stable.

>Two, some waste products decay alpha particles which are basically harmless unless consumed.

...some...

Also, what vectors could these particles enter into food when you consider their lifespan?

>Three, some waste products have short half-lives which increases their risk in the short term but substantially decreases their risk over a 500 year period.

But to what extent are these the ones being pushed for?

>Four, most deaths from nuclear waste would be slow and probabilistic (e.g. 18% increase cancer risk for an individual with high exposure) whereas deaths from some other power source would be immediate and devastating (e.g. flood, destruction of habitat).

Are we really suggesting that the death isn't comparable because it is a long term probabilistic? Imagine if some company dumping sludge into drinking water was making the same argument. Would we find it acceptable?
My issue has been going from the tiny little examples in the official tutorial to a medium-size app, I always get hung up on how to structure my files and code what belongs where yadda yadda.
I don't think a high % of Chinese- or really any culture where MMA isn't big- know that their traditional martial arts are BS. It took a couple of decades here in the US for people to realize that TMAs are mostly nonsense.

From what I've heard, the CCP wants to preserve & promote traditional Chinese culture, which includes their native martial arts. They view MMA as a Western influence, so they want to keep it out

I'm familiar with all the various claims. Although I haven't seen anything seriously disputing the 31 on-site number, beyond +/-5. I said

>>Maybe 60 for eventual cancer deaths for people that were actually on-site.

It's the 10,000+ numbers that I take real issue with. And am skeptical of even the 4,000 "agreed-upon" estimate. I don't doubt radiation was released. I don't doubt radiation exposure can increase risk of cancer.

But when you need statistical methods to calculate deaths, that's just not as meaningful as counting body bags on-site. I get that radiation plays a part in increased cancer risk.

Claiming that there were 1,010,000 cancer deaths, but there should have only been 1,000,000, and not being able to tell which 10,000 were "caused by Chernobyl" is problematic for me. It diminishes the pain of the other 1,000,000. Is this logical? Idk

Some studies in Fukushima claim over 1,000 more people have died by continued forced evacuation, than if they been had been allowed to return to the exclusion zone after a few weeks.

It just gets hard to take these numbers seriously when you only have statistical speculation to rely on. Moreso to treat them with the same equivalence as deaths on-site.
I found the 'worm' of time and space view in the article that is not preserved by recreation to be irritating and naive. Go to sleep on a plane and you are effectively transported to a new place 'disconnected' from where you were. It doesn't cause confusion or entirely new beings to come into existence that would be confusing to the "old you".

Whether these kind of people like this pretty distinguished author likes it or not, there will be scanning, uploads, and eventually entire worlds where people live.

The world of Reamde and "Fall, or Dodge in Hell" look like the extremely obvious and likely future world. These heavy philosophical pieces are also extremely unpersuasive. They come across like something from a bizarre academic world that is disconnected from what is likely in reality. And I'm an academic (but in cs, not this stuff).
Honestly, I am a big fan of this. I lived in Calgary this summer, and downtown they have a dedicated street for the train, busses, and emergency vehicles. No regular vehicles are allowed to drive down this street.

It's genius. The train lines are above ground so the lines were cheaper to manufacturer, Emergency vehicles can get across downtown very quickly, and busses also don't have to deal with congestion.
something called mathematical statistics and data analysis was my college textbook. it covers those things but it's a tough read and i did not like it. now actually, statistics is already quite advanced math. you might want to try learning probability theory and measure theory first as they are considered prerequisites.
This also means that if you arrive on foot you have to walk around to some back alley or something in order to access the building, which defeats the whole purpose of fronting the shop directly on the sidewalk. Or they'll drop or raise the sidewalk in relation to the walk-up entrance and put a railing up making it impossible to access any shops from the sidewalk. As much as developers think they're favoring sidewalks they're really just paying lip service to the idea.
That doesn't mean it's well-designed, it just means it's not using custom widgets. Those of us who aren't particularly thrilled with Calibre's UX are mostly annoyed by how it doesn't bother with typical UI conventions when it comes to menus, displays, command keys, etc.

If I were designing a "competitor," for a start:

- have a "File" menu that collects the commands relating to, you know, files: open, delete, rename, add, edit metadata (akin to the "Get Info" command in most other file menus), etc. Converting between file types could be in a submenu here.

- have an "Edit" menu that does Edit Menu Things (tm), most notably copy, cut, and paste
.
- let me drag and drop files to add them to the library.

- when I connect a Kindle or other device, show me a second pane with its content side-by-side with my library, rather than making me switch between "here is your library with flags to indicate what's on your device" and "here is your device with flags to indicate what's in your library."

- since I have two panes like the gods intended, let me copy files from my library to my device with drag and drop.

Calibre has all of that functionality, but it ignores three decades of UX convention to no particular benefit.
Last year in the wake of the Linux CoC thing, y'all were quick to downmod anyone who commented that CoCs might be used to enforce political orthodoxy.

And now here we are.

Also of note is an emerging new standard: Actual CoC violations are not the threshold for punishment, perceived risk of potential CoC violations is. I saw Aurynn Shaw advocate for this position earlier this year[0], and knew dark times were a-coming; it was hot-takey enough to sound like a great idea to people who pride themselves on being radicals.

> why not require that people who do have parking are only allowed to own as many motorized vehicles as can fit in their parking and cannot use the public right of way to store their private possessions, with huge fines?

> It seems like we need more carrot and less stick.

I feel like that suggestion is precisely more stick and less carrot. More carrot and less stick would indeed be to put some of the money toward public transit, or to build parking spaces for smaller vehicles (e.g. bikes/scooters, motorized or otherwise).
You made a joke, good for you, but the reality is not a joke at all.

At this link you will find official stats from EU for 2018.

https://ec.europa.eu/transport/road_safety/sites/roadsafety/...

Bikes are dangerous (for bikers most of all) and, unexpectedly, countries with more bikes and with better biking infrastructures have higher mortality rates.

For example Italy is safer than Holland or Germany and the majority of fatalities happen in the age range 50-65+, because bikes are inherently dangerous for old people (a lot more than cars).

And in practically every country men are dominating the rankings. EU average is 80% men 20% women.

If you think that in Italy in 2018 there have been 172.344 accidents, causing 3.325 deaths it means that only 1,9% of the accidents cause a death. That's quite safe if you ask me, especially if you consider the total number of kilometers traveled. The statistics must be improved, but it's good nonetheless.

In the same period 275 bike fatalities were registered, it means that ~1 death every 10 is a bike related accident. If you think that Italy has the highest ratio of car owned in the entire west (more than US) at 89% and it is safer than other bike friendly countries like Germany or the Netherlands, it is quite easy to conclude that cars are safer than bikes.

Another interesting data point is "Accident Causation"

~20% of the accidents are caused by ‘incorrect direction’ by the biker, while `other drivers/bikers in bicycle accidents` have taken ‘incorrect direction’ only 2% of the time.

‘incorrect direction’ refers to (I will quote the study here)

> ‘Incorrect direction’ refers to a manoeuvre being carried out in the wrong direction (for example, turning left instead of right) or leaving the road (not following the intended direction of the road). ‘Premature action’ describes a critical event with an action started too early, before a signal was given or required conditions established.

It looks like imprudence by the bikers causes at least 20% of the accidents.

Another 20% is caused by `premature actions` that refers to

> ‘Premature action’ describes a critical event with an action started too early, before a signal was given or required conditions established.

Bikers are also more subject to fractures and open wounds

Fracture bikers: 34%

Fracture all modes of transport: 27%

Open wound bikers: 13%

Open wounds all modes of transport: 10%

So the question remains: why most of the time bikers don't wear any kind of protection?

Could it be because it's a majority of males and the testosterone in their bodies is known for promoting risk-taking behavior?

Could it be that countries with bike-only infrastructures promote taking more risks because are publicised as "safer" but they really are not?

Could it simply be that women are just wiser?
Well put.

Another comment here exemplifies this by reminiscing how they worked up a design draft for their Calibre competitor yet never even started it because it's just too hard and unrewarding.

I also think people are too hard on the author's personality quirks. Yes, they can be grating, but this quirky person is presumably the sort of person who can build it and continue shepherding and maintaining it for over a decade. None of us with our infinite patience and epic social skillz apparently are doing it.

How many here have even maintained a popular, complex product for any real duration? Or had to be your own product's customer service agent? It's not easy. I've seen people break down just fielding customer demands at Target during one summer job.
Why would it matter?

My initial design doc was going to be Swift-based and in my “pie-in-the-sky” goal, it would be a native macOS app.

But part of the value of Calibre is that it is cross-platform and so yes, Electron was a strong option because for cross-platform development, I definitely don’t think it is worse than QT or Java. There are a lot of bad Electron applications, but apps like Visual Studio Code* prove that as with anything, you can make a really fantastic experience if you put the right work into it.

But it doesn’t matter anyway. The amount of work that would be required would be monumental and the payoff wouldn’t be worth it. Which is why I have tremendous respect for the Calibre developer. I don’t agree with his design decisions and I wish the app was more usable, but I fully acknowledge that nothing else exists and that no one else is willing to do the work to make a better version.

* Disclosure: I work at Microsoft but not on VS Code. I have huge respect for the VS Code and the Electron team, however.
You asked specifically about water contamination. Water isn’t the most destructive method of spreading radioactive fallout. A massive explosion under an exposed core would do far more damage by spreading fallout through the air.
As far as I can tell, the way most people decide this is: if I don't like it, it's propaganda

I don't think that "most" is accurate.

It is not hard to recognize propaganda, even when it coincides with one's established views.

In elementary school we had many quizzes and drills on this sort of stuff as part of our civics courses. The problem is, I doubt schools teach this stuff anymore, even though this kind of very basic critical thinking is very important for a functioning society.

Same thing in Munich. It feels pleasant to just walk around in a way that I haven't found in the US. Some US cities are reasonably walkable (e.g. SF, NYC, Boston), but they don't really feel nice to walk around like Munich. Munich manages to be fairly dense -- at least by American standards -- without feeling crowded.

You can argue they're still an art even if they're less effective in a match, though they should be more upfront about it.
Not the OP, but I’m pretty sure they are basing it on the same observations I have. The vast majority of motorcyclists I encounter are riding defensively, while the majority of cyclists I see in city traffic are aggressive and ignore most traffic laws.

If the logic is that it's illegal to "modify" the car, couldn't they just get away with standing a domino or similar piece of wood behind one of the tires? If the car moves out, it topples the domino.
Being on the surface adds a lot of value for short trips in a tram (or similar).
To reach the subway takes 2-4 minutes of travel down to platform level and back up.
To cross the car lane to the tram station in Zurich takes 10-30s if you see the tram coming or read the digital signage, and a few minutes later you can be at your intended destination.
Zurich has of course large parking garages, and if you bring your car in to the city you would leave it there and be able to hop around on the trams & buses, taking only a few minutes between your different shopping and eating destinations.
I also think as a wealthy car driver you can differentiate yourself from the poor public-transport-dependents by choosing to stand on the tram, showing off your high-end branded shopping bags.
