Because Boeing refused to provide them additional training that was needed to make these decisions. Boeing wanted to sell it as an add-on package. And the basic mandatory training they provided was on an iPad instead of simulator.
One thing that has often puzzled me is the effectiveness of an expensive fighter jet against inexpensive adversaries in a face to face dogfight. For example F-35 costs in upwards of $90 Million per unit. Chinese J-10 or JF-17 are $20 or $25 Million per unit. That's 3 fighters for one F-35. So is one expensive F-35 capable enough of taking on 3 cheaper (yet sophisticated enough jets read up on JF-17 recent achievements)? Granted pilots and ground crew on both sides are equal match in skills.
And perhaps better ways to discourage this behavior from new users. This is no different then imagine a few programming newbies join a "Introduction to Programming" class taught at a college by seasoned professor and assisted by graduate teaching assistants. What if TA's start discouraging new students from continuously asking mundane questions? Do the instructors care only about the "performance" of average students in the class so they can go back to their department at the end of the semester and show they have hit a satisfactory passing rate? Or they care about that every student walked away with a good understanding of programming at the end of the day?
IN the light of what he just said, then SO needs to stop banning people from posting questions even if their questions get continuously downvoted by experienced users.

AMP for email is indeed a terrible idea. Google made Gmail extremely slow with latest facelift. The only reason I can see if for Google et al to show ads (impressions vs clicks).
Was your pay hike motivating enough that you did not put enough thought (I am sure you did) for missing out on daily hands-on-experience? I am just curios about the +% delta.
IMHO, journalism is slowly dying. These days you find more "opinion-based" or "make-it-viral" news pieces than proper investigative journalism. Services like this can help but at the same time they can create further segregation of true news vs poor news if most of the critics start growing to be biased.
Ideally Facebook's website or any website should encrypt the password client side and send that via HTTP to the server where the server decrypts in internal and authenticate login session?
Unfortunately, we are in 2019 and client-side hashing is rare because people use SSL instead.
One can argue that company like Facebook that is well stocked with tech resources should have figured this out already but here we are.
"..Just set the case down on a Qi-compatible charging mat and let it charge.." Not exactly wireless charging in its true sense. This case acts more like an adapter. Good product but not worth $200 IMHO.
Unions in tech companies is a very interesting idea. A lot of people never speculate this idea because lets be honest most of them get paid really well or visa workers are simply too scared to join such "abominable" unions etc etc. If any one can start materialize unions would be the workers at FAANG companies. And I am pretty sure rest will follow suit. As a tech worker, I see this as a positive change. As a CTO, this should scare me. As an honest CTO, I would see this as a balanced change for my subordinates and slightly shifting the power dynamics towards them.
Fixing an "aerodynamic" problem with a "software" solution is already cutting over to a different problem domain and it will lead to unforeseen circumstances. What can go wrong, will go wrong.
People at Boeing who made decisions for this project whether it is a team lead or a test lead or a project manager or a sales exec or a CEO; are all equally blamed for this. These deaths are on their conscience.
Please make a conscious choice when flying 737 Max on US domestic flights. It is your right to know the type of aircraft when you are booking your flight. Switching to a reasonably expensive alternative is worth more than any foreseeable trouble.
From my experience at various companies, "technical managers" fit well into most of these categories. Because actively coding and managing a team of multiple developers can bring most of these issues out of you. Example: "getting away with your architectural decisions because you are presenting your ideas with a managerial authority and ignoring better solutions presented by other senior developers."
I am sorry but I do not buy this "added to backlog and forgot" theory, especially for a resources-packed company like Google. Are you implying that everyone from PM to devs to QA all ignored the microphone sitting in there? All electronics needs to be compliance tested at a gov labs in Northeast (Baltimore area) because of electromagnetic signature since Nest devices have WiFi. Are you saying even they forgot to bring it up as well?
Are not some people homelss/nomadic by choice because they wanted to live off the grid? Does not idea like this conflict with their ideologues and individualism?
I am not discussing state of being homeless but one's choice to live independent from the majority of the society.
Source: Once helped a college friend with her thesis by helping her conducting interviews with homeless people living near our university campus.
I feel like around three years ago Apple engineering changed QA leadership or restructured org in that dept and the quality has been down. Prior to IOS9, I have had barely noticed bugs. But now I am in that "used-to" mode that I have learned to ignore such bugs or nuances.
Conspiracy aside, AWS is most likely profiling all of its customers code bases and coming up with patterns as in what domain their applications are being used for etc. In order to capture that low-code/no-code type of market they don;t have to do any market research when the research is already sitting with them. It is pretty genius from a business point of view but yes can become very concerning for mid-tire programmers as the article states.
Spend that money on increasing border patrol personnel, give them pay raises, ask American companies to make cheap drones and give them tax breaks, install motion based security systems. That $5B is going to get a 100 mile worth long wall which is not going to solve the "BIGGER" problem. Trump is a builder and he thinks like one. Sometimes concrete is not the solution.
