there's actually a decent argument to be made that a novel form of it developed in antebellum America in order to prevent a unified black-white lower class from rising up and bodily devouring the plantation owners. Howard Zinn makes that argument, at least. Especially the role Christianity played in establishing race-class distinction. European has always been fairly racially cosmopolitain, because they're all horny, baby, and they want to shag.

More the colonial Americas in general, the Spanish Casta system was absurdly convoluted system of racial classification that even divided "pure blood" Spaniards born in the Americas from Spaniards born in Spain. wesleywillis posted:Well, slavery was pretty Osha I'll wager. Yeah, I'd suggest the Revolutions podcast episodes about the Haitian revolution, the first few episodes go into the background of things and the equipment for sugar manufacturing might as well have been designed to intentionally mangle the slaves operating it. Like imagine one of those hosed up wood chopping machines but even worse. Or check out this guy's book. https://afroculinaria.com/2019/08/09/dear-disgruntled-white-plantation-visitors-sit-down/ quote:My personal favorite was when I spilled some of the contents of a heavy pot of water as the light was dying and you all laughed and one of you said…and I could hear you…”This boy doesn’t know what he’s doing.”

No, that's just a random picture of a crashed airplane that the New York Post googled to stick with the article because they're a bunch of hacks. That looks like a Cessna 182 or similar that has been rotting in a swamp for years. This is the incident airplane, an Air Tractor AT-602  This is what it originally looked like  not much room inside for two people

I used to work on a H&S board for a multi-billion dollar US company which owns a lot of factories with exposed spinning metal parts that were built in the 90's and my NDA just expired so... All accidents were reported. There was one woman who every month, without fail, fell over her chair and reported it as an accident. You'd think it would be common sense not to stick your hand inside this, but at least once a quarter someone did  At one point there were multiple outstanding lawsuits for genital/roller related injury. Although it went to legal I believe 'don't put ur balls near the giant 400rpm spinning rollers' was part of employee induction so we were apparently covered. One building (that I knew of) had a fire rating of 'everyone is going to die if there is ever a fire, without exception'

The French did some accounting to figure out if it was cheaper to get mosquito nets to reduce the number of slave deaths from malaria or to just keep importing slaves. They decided that importing slaves was cheaper. There are a number of proto-cost/benefits analysis for safety stuff for slaves. Just about all of them decided replacing slaves was cheaper than safer working environments.

Just about all of them decided replacing slaves was cheaper than safer working environments. For much more on this: quote:“Slavery in the United States was a business. A morally reprehensible―and very profitable business. Much of the research around the business history of slavery focuses on the horrors of the trans-Atlantic slave trade and the business interests that fueled it. The common narrative is that today’s modern management techniques were developed in the factories in England and the industrialized North of the United States, not the plantations of the Caribbean and the American South. According to a new book by historian Caitlin Rosenthal, that narrative is wrong… Rosenthal argues that slaveholders in the American South and Caribbean were using advanced management and accounting techniques long before their northern counterparts. Techniques that are still used by businesses today.”―Marketplace

The article I read had a little more detail--it re-categorized the victim several times, but even after a re-categorization, it was still detecting an object in the road that it may have to brake for. The real issue wasn't 'didn't see a pedestrian because it wasn't in the crosswalk' (although if it was able to recognize a pedestrian outside of a crosswalk, maybe it wouldn't've gotten confused at what it was seeing), it was because every time it re-categorized her, it threw out its prior motion data, so the system literally didn't recognize that she was moving across its path. Every time the system changed what it thought it saw, she had a known starting speed of 0. It detected her as a bicycle several times, but the system still would have braked for a bicycle moving across its path at any point in a roadway, but the re-categorizations just meant it had near-static snapshots of a variety of obstacles that didn't have a vector that crossed the car's.
