As someone who used to contract for Boeing -- it's definitely not joggers causing problems. There weren't any the entire time I was there, in any of the buildings I was in.
Doesn't necessarily have to be blacks. If Boeing is hiring and promoting people based on diversity the incompetent engineers, inspectors, and/or technicians could have been a myriad of useless idiots.
Nah, the fundamentally issue is Boeing bought McDonald Douglas and then decided to keep McDonald Douglas's management thinking it would be a good idea instead of firing everyone above the level of junior/senior engineer.
As someone who contracted with a company that was created to get Boeing contracts - yeah. Entire office park almost all white dudes, a few Indians, and some Irish. One of my jobs was to make sure their VOIP systems could contact people in places like Malaysia, Morocco, and other 2nd-world shit holes like Dublin, IRE
What they actually talked about, I have no idea.
The 737 MAX issues were almost entirely because of shit code. Who wrote that code? Who knows? Mystery for the ages
Now, the issue of pilots being hired solely because they are vibrant, diverse, and unable to follow ATC commands ... God Speed
Also many of these crashes I think were in African Countries, which, to put it bluntly, have absolutely no concept of maintenance. Even India maintains (lol) it's rail-line.
Complete shit show.
I only travel by my own petrol these days
What does code have to do with doors popping off mid-flight?
I did not program any of that shit so I couldn't tell you.
But it happened and is documented.
The recovery boxes were recovered.
Depends on why it ripped off. If the electronics controlling it glitched it could have been not shut and sealed properly which would have caused the door to fail or something like that.
What does that have to do with now? Is the implication that it would always remain that way because it was like that in the past? Or was this very recent?
It was quite recent, otherwise I wouldn't have mentioned it.
I saw a ton of Taiwanese programmers, a lot of Indians, and effectively zero Hispanic or black dudes.
I second this. I worked at 4 different companies over a decade and had fewer than a dozen black (or even brown) coworkers in all that time. Maybe things have changed drastically but these problems existed way way before DEI was even a thing.
