The first thought that gave me was that it would suck if the solution was to throw the pigs in the ocean.

My wife (a midwife and health researcher) came into my office as I had this picture opened, and as she was walking towards it and realised what it is she tensed up, screwed up her face and slowly walked backwards out.

Wheeling back around to that dam collapse in Brazil the other week, in what to me is an incredibly surprising move, they're actually changing the legislation around them and enforcing it on Vale to the tune of $3 billion in reworking costs. https://twitter.com/BaseMetals/status/1093773665542590464 As you can see in this handy diagram, upstream tailings dams are inherently less stable than downstream.

As if they’ll actually move to downstream dams. They’ll go centreline at best. (The names come from the displacement of the top of the dam. Downstream dams move away from the tailings at they get taller. Upstream dams move towards them. Centreline dams maintain position.)

Yeah the "other types of dams" covers a multitude of sins.

This might interest you, Orthotrot (and others), if you didn't already know about it. Though I wish it was written as eloquently, or at least with less capitals and more paragraphs.quote:The basics are as follows - At approximately 2000 hours on 18 June, 1950, Ansett Airways' DC-3 taxied into empty coal wagons (which were part of a train consisting of a D50 locomotive, 53 empty coal-wagons & 1 brake-van) on Runway 22 at Kingsford Smith Airport, Sydney. http://www.spiritsofansett.com/history/train.html

Even with my basic machining and theory knowledge on 'how guns works' (and 15 years since I've held a firearm ) I couldn't actively make something that failure/hilarity prone.

ProPublica has a really good read on the USS Fitzgerald crash in 2017: Death and Valor on an American Warship Doomed by its Own Navy. There is quite a litany of bad decisions, both from above and on the ship lead to the crash. Here are a few of the shorter highlights:On the Radar posted:The SPS-67 had another problem: radars must be tuned to obtain the clearest images. On the Fitzgerald, technicians had covered a button to tune the radar with masking tape because it was broken. From his post, Stawecki could not tune the radar. So the only other thing he saw were false returns — so-called clutter that could result from the radar hitting waves, flocks of birds or any other obstacle at sea. Stawecki would later testify that he saw no ships threatening the Fitzgerald in the crucial half-hour before the collision. On Personnel posted:Sarah Coppock, lieutenant junior grade, was the officer of the deck, responsible for the safety and navigation of the ship while [Captain] Benson slept. On Watch posted:But nobody, it turned out, was standing watch on the starboard side of the ship.

Vale can get turbo-hosed. quote:Vale was elected as the corporation with the most "contempt for the environment and human rights" in the world during a January 2012 vote organized by the Public Eye. The choice was made by public vote and Vale received 25,000 votes.

There is quite a litany of bad decisions, both from above and on the ship lead to the crash. Here are a few of the shorter highlights: There are a ton of systems that were in bad repair too. The article called out radars that were damaged, and at least two communication failures that happened. It's likely that if the officer in the CIC had called up, the officer in the bridge had called the captain, or the radar had been properly maintained the collision wouldn't have happened. But the real failure is trying to remain on a war footing with no budget for years on end.
