I have already seen legacy projects that were designed using Rational Rose, but for some reason I thought it was only a commercial name, not an actual system. Thanks, I learned something today !

from my understanding you need a sample of the tumor to design the vaccine, so it is not OR but AND

And closer home, Poland. So it is not a far fetched idea or fantasy.

If birth rates are quickly falling, the debt will have to be repaid by an always smaller population, it seems it will make matter worse. (Unless we find out a magical productivity gain that can be heavily taxed by government)

I am working on medical device software, processes are terrible, tech stack is not really up to date, but at least, I sometimes feel that I am helping people down the line.

Never heard of that catastrophe, but an oil rig digging into a mine under a lake is pretty terrible.

To me it sounds exactly like local American politicians blaming "Washington".

I remember an example from another nuclear site cleanup. If you work on a part potentially contaminated you cannot used a normal vacuum cleaner that will disperse some contaminated dust, so you need a special purpose device. Then you cannot dispose easily of the dust, so you need another process. Since the device is also critical you probably need some regular maintenance or tests, so you need someone to manage them.

So basically every single step is much more complex with the associated cost.

As someone working on Class III medical devices, it is true that the FDA does not check if your design is "safe", only that the documentation and process seems to have been followed, but on the other hand you are also required to monitor your install base and report any hazardous event, and in case no adequate remediation/plan to your adverse events, they have the real power to stop the commercialization of the product.

But I agree this is coming a bit late in the process if people have already been harmed.

I am always surprised that humility is a classical virtue but that seems to be totally opposite to the modern life. I can't really think of a lots of humble public figure.

And likely if you are too humble in the workplace, you don't exist either.

Pikuniku is an independent platformer, where you cannot mostly not die except some boss encounter, but some part can be difficult for a 5 years old. It is mainly single player, with a small 2 player part. Available on Switch & PC at least.

This reads like the perfect example of "if you want someone to answer your question on Internet, start with an inflammatory title"

He managed to get the maintainer of the module he wanted to integrate to answer his questions, mission accomplished.
