That is what tracking your billable hours means.... Clocking in and out is, however, common for hourly employees.

My grandma loves her new Windows 8 computer. She hasn't called me for help at all since she got it--a vast improvement over her old Mac laptop and XP desktop.

There are a lot more who use their ecosystem than you think. All of their services work very well together, the Music and Video services have anything I could ever want (seriously,…

Good companies should not have a single point of failure. If they do, the only way they'll learn to live without you is if you're not there. Just take a break. Go somewhere that do…

It's really not that long. TL;DR is for the lazy or people who should be working but aren't.

A pilot probably wouldn't know how all the systems work together. (They probably know what ACARS and ADS-B -do-, but not the implementation details.) You would want an avionics eng…

"4mericans" might actually work.

Bombardier also build CRJs, business jets (Globals, Challengers and Learjets), does government work and builds fire-fighting aircraft. Oh, and the C-Series is a brand new a/c enter…

When I was out of the country on vacation recently, I didn't turn on my phone and I didn't bring my computer. I didn't have internet (because I refuse to pay for internet at hotels…

Or, you know, you can just say something like: - "I'm in the middle of something right now. I'll call you back." - "Hey, I can't talk right now. Try again after 3." - "Hey, I've go…

They are for 0 points, so they're not really rewards.

Fair enough. My main point is that we spend a lot of time trying to get the autopilot to function right, but it's not an easy problem where you can just throw a bunch of edge case …

It's highly version controlled. Changing software versions on a plane usually means changing a lot of hardware too. After removing the boxes from the a/c, they can be returned to t…

Try writing the code for an autopilot some time. It's hard. We spend a lot of time flight testing just the autopilot. Making something go in a particular direction at a particular …

Messages are prioritized on the screens in the cockpit in any aircraft I've ever seen. Higher priority messages are near the top and are a different color. There are lots of messag…

Yeah, I don't know about the a/c in question; however, the Colgan crash was a result of the pilot fighting the stick pusher and winning. The stick pusher is not easy to override. I…

Just add a new search engine with the special url and make it the default as opposed to the pre-baked search engines.

The pressure difference between the interior and exterior of the aircraft causes considerable stress on the aluminum. One of the advantages with composite fuselages is their greate…

Ctrl+Z,X,C,V,R,Y,B,I,E, etc. work in Word, Excel, any web browser--actually, any windows application that uses standard controls.
