They aren't. Light ircraft now use touchscreens that you are supposed to use while bouncing around. They had a knob for a while but then it seemed touchscreens took over. With the knob you still had to look, it at least you didn't have to aim at a bouncing spot on the screen.

Also make them illegal in aircraft! And spacecraft! Seriously stupid.

I like location based games, like Niantic has done, but with much less backstory.

Calling him out for name calling then nar calling.

Minus points for name calling and hypocrisy.

Not many, statistically. And I bet even fewer next time.

That is not exactly true. My dad was a geology professor. About half his students ended up in oil and gas. The other half were employed as city planners, teachers, consulting geologists, and in , civil engineering firms, environmental services firms, mining and others.

I think you are correct. My first bad boss was a contractor for Comcast. Layers and layers of metrics and KPIs. My best CEO was a "my door is always open, come in and talk" guy.

Bosses have gotten really bad for some reason. A manager used to mentor people and deal with communicating issues upwards. Now it seems to be entirely abusive supervision.

I did 3 on 4 off. The 3rd 12hr shift was rough, but otherwise it was pretty great.

It is hard writing rules for humans that they can't game. In sales they had to constantly change the rules to prevent them from being gamed.

There isn't a lot of consistency in the courts.
