Apportioning blame is one thing the authorities will not want to do:

"The TSIB is the air, marine and rail accidents and incidents investigation authority in Singapore. Its mission is to promote transport safety through the conduct of independent investigations into air, marine and rail accidents and incidents.

The sole objective of TSIB’s safety investigations is the prevention of transport accidents and incidents. The safety investigations do not seek to apportion blame or liability. Accordingly, TSIB reports should not be used to assign blame or determine liability."

And:

"The sole objective of the investigation of an accident or incident under these Regulations is the prevention of future accidents and incidents. It is not the purpose of such an investigation to apportion blame or liability.

Accordingly, it is inappropriate that [UK] AAIB reports should be used to assign fault or blame or determine liability, since neither the investigation nor the reporting process has been undertaken for that purpose."

Apportioning blame is how you lose transparency in air accident investigations.

I broke a time mirror once. Had 7 kilometres of bad luck.

It's awful. I was impressed by the video and the technology, but the presentation style is irritating.

I felt especially sorry for the people working at the Rwanda site just trying to do their jobs efficiently, while he mucks about being fake-excited about everything. There's almost an air of "smile and nod and hope he goes away soon" about it

Other considerations aside, he says the robot is an entry for Pi Wars 2022.

The Pi Wars rules state:

"The core controller of the robot should be a Raspberry Pi. This includes all microcomputer models of the Pi (such as the Pi 3, Pi 4, Pi Zero, Compute Module) and also the Raspberry Pi Pico."

and

"Additional Microcontrollers, such as Arduinos, micro:bits etc may be used on the robot but the Raspberry Pi must be in overall control"

Why do American laws have such stupid names?

I live in the UK, and the similar law is called the Digital Economy Act, and specific regulations would be named something like the Adult Content (Access by Minors) Regulations

Why do American lawmakers feel the need to make ridiculous acronyms for their laws? It's genuinely baffling. All it does is make it look like they're not taking it seriously.
