Most of the manga I have is amateur translated stuff, so the metadata quality varies with release groups.

The graphic novels are generally retail releases, but sometimes I still want to edit to get rid of marketing words (e.g. the title might mention how it's now a Netflix series or something).

Thanks for explaining it, not sure why you've collected those downvotes.

I like it too, even though it didn't notify me when the trial was up like it said it would. I was planning on buying the lifetime (or uninstalling) but it autobilled me for a year instead.

Anyway, here's mine:

I can almost believe that Australians do get their April Fools Day stuff that late.

"is in good health"? I was looking for autocorrect typos but can't figure out anything likely, unless they're not using querty.

That was a confusing headline: I had no idea if it was saying that MS used AI tools to catch hackers or if it meant that MS discovered that hackers were using the tools. It's the latter, btw

Assuming an alternative goal is indeed the logical response here. It is plausible that the opposing team recognised that they could not triumph against a Vulcan team and set themselves a more achievable goal, for example scoring within 80%.

I was responding to "the bean counters running the company need to be replaced with engineers" by pointing out that the man at the top is, at least by training, an engineer.

Let's look at the timeline:

  • 1985 - Muilenburg joins Boeing
  • Aug 2011 - 737 Max announced
  • Dec 2013 - Muilenburg becomes president of Boeing
  • July 2015 - Muilenburg becomes CEO of Boeing
  • Jan 2016 - First 737 Max flight
  • Mar 2017 - FAA certifies 737 Max
  • May 2017 - First 737 Max commercial flight
  • Oct 2018 - Lion Air Flight 610 crashes
  • Mar 2019 - Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 crashes
  • Dec 2019 - Muilenburg resigned

An aerospace analyst writes:

Dennis Muilenburg, whose strategy appears to be to maximize the share price for stockholders, and the executive team that holds stock and options. Having returned nearly $50 billion to shareholders through dividends and stock buybacks over the last five years, rather than invest in new products to better compete with Airbus, Boeing’s market share is falling and, given the aforementioned failures, is losing its reputation for quality and safety.

Are you seriously arguing that a man who is qualified to see the problems and dangers of the 737 Max and then chose to ignore them in favour of pressuring regulators and collecting profits shouldn't be held responsible? He was in a senior position while the development happened and was in the top spot when it was certified. If the head of the company shouldn't be held responsible, who should be?

Ignoring his time as president, four years is definitely enough time to see what kind of leader he was, and all of the internal messages coming out show no attempt to change the culture.

I've come across this term in a few different contexts (e.g. hardware and software) and I don't associate it with EAL/non-native speakers.

A quick search backs up @jecht360's etymology as coming from the car world.

Fair enough; I didn't consider artifacts like logs and traces. I suppose a stale marker might prompt the original reporter to retest and supply fresh ones (or confirm it's fixed in the dependency case).

In an ideal world I suppose we'd have automated tests for all bug reports but that's obviously never going to happen!
