There might be a slight point here, but speaking for me its all about not giving even more data (power) to "the few", that clearly do not wield that data in our interest.

Exactly, apparently the "ÖPNV-Immunisierung" (public transport immunization) was fake news, too. I can report the same experience for Hamburg.

For everyone living near nothern DE thinking about the transition to the cozy diesel engine http://www.maschinenmuseum-kiel-wik.de runs their submarine diesel engine every 3rd sunday. Spoiler: Loud gets redefined & not especially cozy.

This exactly, but let me add: Develop an urge to understand things. One needs to understand the whole system environment just to be able to make good choices.

To give "urge" more meaning: These days I get a noticeable weird feeling in my gut if I'm working in a environment where there are too many unknowns.

Made an agreement with my employer to work less and I really enjoy my new found spare time / day.

Just to clarify: Wendelstein 7-X is a plasma research reactor, never intended to produce energy.

Which Notebook is a "good" linux machine? All my "linux on NB" experiences so far have been kind of compromised with lack or quality of drivers - resulting in poor overall performance. E.g.: no/poor/intermittend wifi/BT, excessive battery drain, loud fans.

These settings left me with a neverending accident on one lane.

Try to get in early or / late on a week day - especially if you like to let your eyes / imaganitaion wander around uninterupted. Otherwise it gets somewhat crowded despite the fact that their limiting / scheduling aproach.

Is that a realistic threat model? What does the technology look like to tap into 800Gbit/s of fiber traffic - under water?

It is more the necessity of working around frequency congestion and all those other voice via radio related problems eg ("to","two","victor","vector",unameit) than a convenience change of a good working system.

Great read about that "my stetement is meant as a question" topic in the AVWeb Series "Say again". It boils down to "inflection does not work (well) via radio, add 'request' as prefix to your request".

Defacto it is, but spoken with many a accent. Try listening to some for yourself to get a feel for it - http://www.liveatc.net/

It also has to do something with radio (voice) frequencies beeing at max capacity in high traffic areas.

It's a (underfunded) government industry - change often takes a lot of time in big companys, especially with their high demand to security and procedures.

I'd like to recommend the AVWeb series "Say again" series by Don Brown. It gives some insight in the last decades of the airspace controlling government industry and it's problems.

The process of structuring and explaining a problem to yourself via email or as before mentioned as "something similar" is available as a service: http://duckie.me/#about_section

This method helped me alot as I found myself explaning a problem to a colleague finding the solution through the indepth explanation, wasting both of our time and focus.

So, what did I want the button to do? I tried the following with success: "visual changes on press then revert to original state"

Sounds perfect for a fun day at the beach, right? Not so fast … its $12,000 price tag makes it more suitable for more serious endeavors, such as surveying and mining.

I'm not a developer of the game but:

DestinationQueue handling: It is not redundant, those are different options. Just to give an valid example: Add something to the queue, sort the queue, make the elevator run the updated and sorted queue.

Having both goingUpIndicator and goingDownIndicator is probabaly necessary to get this abritrary third state (both enabled / both disabled) which essentially indicates that the elevator will go in both directions.

"Lord of the Rings" by Tolkien. Tried to read it for years, but always got distracted by other books (e.g. "The Making of the Atomic Bomb" by Richard Rhodes - found in a HN). Lo! This year, after I purchased a e-book version I finally concluded the quest and cast the ... I mean I read it.
