I mean you can believe what you want but NTSB literally had a guy at a podium say into the mic last night that there is so far no evidence "the bolts were ever there", around the 17-18 minute mark if you have nothing better to do. Good luck with your investments.

> the overreaction to this is bordering on insanity

Not an overreaction. Not bolting on a door on a brand new plane is past bordering into full-on insanity.

NTSB are doing that lab work right now in Washington D.C.

You seem to not know the meaning of suspect, so here is the definition:

Dictionary Definitions from Oxford Languages · Learn more sus·pect verb 3rd person present: suspects /səˈspek(t)/ 1. have an idea or impression of the existence, presence, or truth of (something) without certain proof. "if you suspect a gas leak, do not turn on an electric light"

Have a great day sir.

I'm pretty sure if you personally drove a new car off the lot and the door fell off you would not believe that quality were unchanged from your prior impression of that car company.

Just because it's happening to other people doesn't make it okay to hand-wave away safety.

And by the way, so far NTSB believes it's not a fabrication error but an assembly error. NTSB suspects 4 bolts were never screwed in.

So enormous that musk won't touch it. He's said a plane company is something he wants to do but can't. And that wouldn't even be large airliners.

We'll have to agree to disagree. I don't believe in blaming the user for manufacturing and maintenance errors. I think that makes a bad programmer too, actually.

What do you mean "if", anyone can choose what plane to fly on anytime.

In a brand new plane? Yes it is.

It is trivial to see how someone sitting there not seat belted could have perished. You do understand that long stretches of flight allow you to be unseatbelted right?

The only reason nobody was injured this time was nobody was sitting in the seats next to the door plug that blew off. The seat was destroyed.

It doesn't matter. Nothing will change unless enough people begin voting with their feet.

No, not usually. In my experience anyway, most random engineers in the semiconductor industry that you would run into who know both C and Verilog would be just using those tools to do their job. There is a lot of ECE stuff to unpack in your question, but the subfield of ECE in question is called VLSI. You'd want to talk to someone who works in VLSI, or did VLSI as their focus in ECE undergrad or grad school.

Yeah, sorry, I don't believe for a second that Russia has failed to maintain their only playing card. What a joke. US military industrial complex folks will make up any story to excuse their audit-free slovenly spending.

The country that is still launching the same platform for manned space that they did in the 50s can't figure out how to do that but with warheads -- doubt! Makes a good story though!

Actually no, it's not "as simple as that" when everyone except you doesn't take lunch hour and schedules meetings at noon. We have a right to the lunch hour.

Ok, I guess that's fair. Having worked at one of the large chip makers, I can tell you there are plenty of people who know C and Verilog, you just weren't talking to any of them. Those who need to do, and those who don't, don't. It's certainly an industry with high degree of specialization.

We're not gobsmacked when you don't know Verilog, so I'm not sure why you think you can be gobsmacked some chip designers don't know C...

These examples for the flutter rpg game engine seem to run great on my old pixel 3, under the hamburger menu > mini games:
