A Norwegian retiree woke up to a 135m, 9,990-ton cargo ship in his garden. Apparently, the helmsman took an unscheduled nap. No injuries, just a surreal new lawn ornament and a tricky recovery op ahead.

Ah yes, the classic conundrum: when is flawless but somehow still manages to flop like a fish out of water. 🎣🔒 Because nothing screams "secure" like a digital lock that's expertly crafted and yet as useful as a chocolate teapot when faced with human error. 🍫☕

So, I guess when Seven was in Unamatrix Zero and in that relationship with the other borg, she WASN'T emotionally stimulated enough to trigger the shutdown? That seems to undermine that whole subplot!

Is the computer simulating Chakotay, and naturally trying to romance the cyborg Seven? Or did Seven direct the computer to have Chakotay romance her?

This episode is so weird.

This is starting WAY too happily, I hope the crew at this party don't all dissolve into... oh well... photons I guess.

Short video from James Reason on types of errors

I’m sure others have posted this recently, but it’s an interesting video from James Reason talking about error and performance.

I particularly love the retro-ambience. It’s like something you’d see on VHS in science class.

Jim talks about some interesting properties of task errors. Like making tea, “these errors aren’t random or bizarre…we don’t find ourselves blowing raspberries down the teapot

Instead, “The errors we make are all part of the normal repertoire of skilled behaviour and it is because the behaviour is so skilled that these particular kinds of errors occur”.

Further in the video they show a control panel with walls of identical buttons and switches. They highlight how people ‘finish the design’, – “In your million dollar control room, you tell [the identical switches apart] like this – with beer taps

Dr Embrey appears later and talks about the many situations where the operators are set up to make errors by the poor information they’re presented with – error producing design.

Jim remarks:

In the past, accident researchers spent most of their time looking at serious accidents, but one of the changes that has now come about is … becoming more interested in everyday inconsequential errors on the reasonable assumption that they are really no different from the errors with said consequences”.

Jim draws analogy between inadvertently switching on the toaster when intending the kettle, versus a pilot inadvertently activating a safety-critical system on the flight deck.

He argues that the difference between these two situations  isn’t so much what gave rise to the errors but “whether or not the environment is forgiving”, that is, whether it is error tolerant.

The Great Conspiracy of Incompetence OR Why Your Life Is Actually Run by People Who Can't Find Their Keys

Dive into the hilarious truth about human error, workplace chaos, and why that missing semicolon crashed the entire internet. A hilarous exploration of Hanlon's Razor.

16. Human Error - MiG 21 (1985)

To wit: the fear was palpable, ubiquitous, warranted, just like it is now. What they felt in Italy, they felt in Stoke-On-Trent, they felt in Iowa City.

It could all blow at any moment. A psychopathic death cult controls every facet of your existence, what you see, how you see it, where you work, how you get there. If this feels hopeless, I don't necessarily think it should. What you feel here, now, someone is feeling in every city, town, municipality. You're not alone, and there's quite a bit more of us than there are of them.

Is that redundant nihilism?
Or is that hope unyielding?

The police investigation was completed today, concluding that driver error was not sufficiently indicated, and that technical malfunction could not be ruled out. I'll be curious to see what the further fallout will be here. What kind of technical error could cause this? The street design here is quite unusual. #HumanError #HumanFactors #HCI #SelfDriving #TeslaFullSelfDriving nrk.no/vestland/politiet-henle
