The thing is: For the same money that has been spent on putting a crewed mission around the moon we could easily have done multiple non-crewed missions to/around it OR done multiple missions that focus on long distance crewed missions.
We will see. Atm everyone I know who is remotely knowledgable in that field has a somewhat stern opinion on the mission.
Absolutely. That’s why I said: If we have a scientific reason for it? Go for it.
But not just for the sake of it.
No.
Just as the famed US DoD budget contains enormous amounts of social welfare (Veteran healthcare, GI bill, dependant care,etc.) that is covered in EU nations by the standard social welfare systems the NASA budget is extremly focused on hidden economical subsidies,especially for some obscure senators. This is already a major ESA problem and just as defence spending shouldn’t be increased just for the sake of it to reach a quota it is even less worth doing so in terms of space egos. We need to reducue this kind of behaviour massively all over EU spending.
Do we need to put someone on the moon just for the sake of it?Hell no. Should we do so when we have a good reason for it? Yeah. Absolutely.
So basically should we invest in reaching feature parity? Yeah. But not for the sake of spending.
You are aware that this also included regular trekking groups? Not only everest?
“I am very sure my husband has no heart attack. I am a homeopathic and this is clearly not a heart attack. You don’t know what you are doing.”
I am a paramedic for 24 years, a critical care paramedic for 16. The husband had such a “myocardial infarction out of the book”-ECG it almost looked twice. He literally almost coded on us twice. And this lady walzes in (funny enough: They were in the process of separating) and after 60 sec. decides she knows what’s up.
Homeopathy therapists here have no formal training. Just a state exam that makes sure they don’t kill someone too often.
The husband barely made it,personally I think mostly out of spite for her. Had a cardiac arrest twice while in the cathlab,but survived without neurological issues.
It’s really really rare that I am out of words and don’t have a comeback. But that woman in that moment?
(For the medical folks: Massive STEMI accross 3 leads, massive contractility issue visible on POCUS, later on become pressure dependended, had VF arrest during PCI, needed an impella for two weeks)
Which one? The first Bush-Iraq war? Yep. Not as blatant,but generally yeah.
The second one? Nope, the country pretty much was in shambles already.
Yeah. The thing is: For a moment you forget that. I saw one for real. Planned big ass explosion. I knew beforehand and was specifically there for it and invited by the goverment agency doing it.
But for a very short moment you forget that and your brain goes full on monkey mode.
I drive: KIA EV6.
What I wish for? A better KIA EV6. I love my EV6, it’s a marvellous car,much more fun than the Audis, BMWs, etc. I drove before. But yet there is room for improvents.
Tbh, at the moment the maintainer seems to be have gotten the message - or at least tries to make it seem so. I would give him the benefit of doubt at this stage, at least for a while now.
Without Synapse migration it’s sadly still hard for longer established servers to migrate/impossible.
Very happy with a KIA EV6.
No longer valid. A shitton of companies are UG by now - I operate one myself. It is very rarely an issue,even back when it’s been just an UG we used.
They don’t need a GmbH, a UG would do it for less starting capital, BUT a joint stock company does not protect you from Scheinselbstständigkeit per se.
It’s a proper clusterfuck.
Read up on Scheinselbstständigkeit. Then talk to a tax advisor that is knowledgeable in that topic.
Only once you fully understood the implications you can proceed - and by understanding I mean realizing how utterly hard the law makes it for regular freelancers. And don’t get me wrong, but if you are unable to understand that topic due to language skills don’t do it. Not because it’s not possible to understand the legal situation through translating apps - but more because you will get a LOT of paperwork you must understand precisly because one wrong word will ruin you and cost your customers thousands. And which is often required to be send back within days. (Looking at you, DRV)
That being said classical admin work freelancing unlike actual consulting is almost impossible to do under the current laws.
Welcome to Germany/Austria,etc.
The issue is not “oh, that will not do good”,but more “does the risk outweight the benefit or not”.
Intubating a patient is always a delicate procedure, doing so with an emergency patient (who obviously has not fasted, has a acute reason for being intubated,etc.) is even more difficult and doing so prehospitally is even more risky. It’s dark, cramped, loud, there are other enviromental factors (I once failed because my hands were shaking to much from the cold), etc. And,in case of a medically assisted intubation before you can intubate you kick out the patients breathing reflexes so they will sure as hell die if you do not suceed. A so called “cannot oxygenate (=Cannot ventilate)/cannot intubate” situation is a nightmarish situation which gives seasoned anaesthesists nightmares. . This makes intubation a skill hard to master - you need around 100 intubations to learn it and 15 per year to keep that skill. Seperatly for adults and children. (The later is even hard to uphold for anaesthesists)
While out tooling has improved and made it FAR easier and safer (videolaryngoskopy, capnography,etc.) than 20 years ago, it is still debatable how safe it is when performed prehospitally. (A recent German study showed a first pass rate - the rate how sucessful a intubation is on first try- of 60% for all professions,including paramedics, anaesthesists,etc.)
Additionally it takes a lot of time - which will occupy a team. While in hospital more people can do other things at the same time. So it’s worth considering “hey,we take 10min of scene time to tube a patient. A hospital is 10 min away. Is jt worth to make a run there and tube then with a better enviroment, while other people can do labs,run blood,etc.?”
The question therefore is more than valid and not as easy to answer - it is always a consideration of patient status, location, resources and enviromental factors. (How bad is the patient? How hard will he be to intubate? How far away from hospital am I? Do I have a intensely trained team I work with every day or am I a solo responder working with a EMT crew that is barely holding it together? How sure am I that I can intubate this patient? How up to the task am I really? How is the truck,the scene?) It’s often a very tough decision. And I saw countless patients die from providers developing a “tuberitis” - the tube needs to go in, no matter what.
Don’t get me wrong - the UK for example has a lack of prehospitally available qualified providers who can properly intubate and I am a old fuck who in doubt will intubate the patient (unless it’s a child, no longer doing these). But I have far more training in that than the average provider. (Currently a high three digit count in the logbook, thanks to working in anaesthesia part time for years)

Xwiki is missing.
For me after a similar search it is the current winner. Even though it has it’d downsides. We came from Confluence and tested a LOT of systems. My spreadsheet of systems we considered has around 120 rows by now. (Not all pure wikis as we also moved away from jira and considered going down a “put the wiki into the servicedesk” route)
Pro:
It is well tested in a enterprise enviromentand mighty
It has all the features I personally found important for a company wiki, e.g. approval, versioning, templates, collaboration, integration api,etc.
It is fairly easy to extend it yourself
It is easy to host subwikis within the same installation with a self defined grade of independence - which is great for customer facing things,large projects with externals,etc.
The development community is big and enterprise focus and release cycles are good. (Not like a certain .js) There is very little chance it will stall suddenly as the wiki has been adopted by a lot of large companies which seem to support it.
It’s truely free,no “pay to get custom fields” bullshit.
It’s truely self hosted.
it can be hosted system side, if you are not into docker.
Contra:
It is written in bloody Java
(even though this sentence is redundant with the one above) It is a resource hog
The look and feel is a bit outdated unless you customise it yourself. Then it is reasonably good.But there are basically no paid templates,etc.
Paid support is only available through third parties it seems.
It can be, well, slow to update…like physically slow. It is not hard to update,not at all…press a few buttons…but sometimes it takes ages.
A follow up is a absolutely regular thing and does not diminish neither study.
Nah, OP is just a troll. Most European countries by now have legislation to mandate them or are currently introducing these. All of them heavily advise them.
Okay, you can’t start a story like that and then not tell us the cruiseship story in full glory.
