This made me lol, good job | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
Fines (both corporate and personal) should be based on a percentage of gross income. Some guy in Finland got fined $130k for speeding last year because it's based on income. He wasn't even going that fast. Fine Apple or Google 10% of gross revenue and I guarantee things will change.
If the fine doesn't hurt then it doesn't dissuade, and that pain point comes at different levels for each person and organization. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

Shit, I've found out I've been booked onto a 787-9 flight to get to a new job and it's making me anxious as hell because it's a Boeing. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
I'm not saying that is a bad idea, but I wonder what the percentage chance of a crash in an airplane is and what the percentage chance of a crash in a car is. The Boeing issues are high visibility but is the chance of a crash that much more than your trip to the grocery store? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
> Some airfare booking sites now offer "no 737 max" or even "no boeing" filters when searching for flights. Airlines are obviously going to be aware that their customers are so wary of Boeing planes that some are avoiding them.
They can change models as needed (and often do), so those filters aren't super meaningful... but yeah I definitely pick non-Max flights whenever possible. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

That's called progress.

The dude you are replying to was absolutely correct, though. Even if this instance is true. For your personal well being, do not love reddit because you believe the random comments are true special insight.
Places like ask historians delete any comments without proper citations and a known credentialed poster, which is a different matter and wonderful. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

Gaslighting?! GE, Twitter, Boeing (the subject of this article, for Pete’s sake!) How are they doing, *as a company*? Are they the respected paragons of their industries they once were? Or are they hollow shells that don’t do much but provide shareholder value?
And yes, “providing value to shareholders” *is* the duty of a publicly traded company, but until Jack Welch came along, everyone assumed one did so by providing a superior product or service. Fucking with the financials (such as—oh, I don’t know—firing 10% of the workforce every year) is always going to be detrimental to the health and long-term viability of the company, regardless of your personal feelings on the matter.
Furthermore, the fact that you would look at a tactic like stack ranking and think, “That sounds like a good idea,” shows just how pernicious Welch’s success actually was. The *only* thing that matters is next quarter’s shareholder report, cuz, ya know, after we completely fuck up this company, we’ll just move on to the next one. It is a sickness in American corporate culture which lead to its own downfall. Short-sighted greed, man, you should be careful. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

22% of the adults in SC can barely write their own name or read and understand sentences with more than 4 words.
Even more worrying is that somehow of the people who have a bachelors or higher 5% are also in this group. But in general of the people with a bachelors or higher 74% have a literacy level of 3/5 or higher. About the national average. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
Modern Wall Street C-suits need to relearn the lesson. the losses sustained by poor quality and major safety issues, are always orders of magnitude more than the cost cutting on the production line. the best argument for integrating a strong safety and responsibility culture in the workplace is the economic one. it is just good business. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

My prediction: a new startup will come on the scene to take their market share with an emphasis on how safe the planes are. In 5 years they’ll find they’re actually worse than the original Boeing planes and the CEO will retire in disgrace with a multi-billion dollar golden parachute. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
Corporations are under extreme pressure to provide consistent returns to investors, 3-5%ish year after year, this becomes exponential as it adds up btw. They do this by growing and expanding, but there are finite resources and finite consumer bases so they look at ways of cutting costs and boosting productivity instead: lower quality materials, lower wages, more employee responsibility with less benefits, etc. This is where we’re at now and it’s abundantly clear. They also create shady tactics like planned obsolescence and artificial scarcity for these reasons.
It’s like a couple years ago when Netflix was getting hammered because they had saturated the number of subscribers and were struggling to grow any more. What we’re seeing with Boeing is just another example of cutting costs to please investors and it’s coming back to haunt them. The cracks are showing because many large companiescsimply cannot grow anymore. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
It’s why I bought Boeing stock two weeks ago, the upside over the next couple of years is very high. It seems like they are finally taking safety seriously, and that will eliminate the downside pressure over the next year or two. Then they just sit back and collect on the hundreds of billions of dollars of orders on their order book over the next ten years. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
They really should stop paying CEOs in stock. I know they offered to get the CEO vested in the company's future; but as you point out, the future is only as long as they have to wait to sell their stock.
Perhaps CEOs should be paid a residual or annuity based on the company's stock price instead. That would incentivize them to want the company to be healthy over the long run. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
It’s ok, they saved some money totally worth it | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
That might have been true 150 years ago, 100 later after societal improvements a man was able to provide for a family of 4, buy a house, have health insurance, pension, and vacation. Giving voice and including the women and minorities into the work force alongside the men should have improved economic benefit *for everyone* that was already present for the men.
I want for the average joe and Jane to benefit from all the wealth that is being created by them. How were the companies of yesteryear able to afford all the benefits I stated above, but 21st century corporations can’t? Why are stock buybacks allowed after claiming record profits year after year and then they are firing workers? Why can apple skirt taxes by incorporating in Ireland and leasing the name to a European corporation who then sells it to the American Apple company? I’m just a average joe. However less that a week ago, one of the wealthiest Americans Warren buffet stated if the top 800 companies payed their fair share of taxes, no American would pay any income tax. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
I think part of it comes from careful fleet management, as in they'll buy older aircraft instead of shiny new aircraft. Think "buy a Honda-certified 2015 Civic" versus "buy a brand new 2024 Honda Civic". They've also acquired some of their fleet from acquisitions; pretty sure there are still some former Northwest airframes flying around. They also do aircraft maintenance for a few hundred other organizations. They are among the best in the industry and I'm sure they cost substantially more than Discount Frank's Plane-O-Rama "Home of the $49.99 Annual".
All that said, they are moving towards consolidation. They just discontinued the last of the MD-xx within the last five years and I'm pretty sure the 717 and 767 are on the chopping block. Last I heard, they want to go to a majority Airbus fleet, and I can understand why. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

Some companies cannot grow more but others will. Few companies are THAT old actually and many previously huge ones will die and others will take their place. The world is still full of people who are far from having the same living standard as we do for example.
Now the worry is of course resources and how much we fuck up our planet in the process. On the other hand moving towards greener technology is also growth. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

About 50,000 Boeing flights per day in the world, and you think yours might be the one next month? Okay. I get that Boeing's QC may not be what it used to be, but honestly, one bad news article per month compared to the number of Tesla crashes per year... (Tesla Autopilot was involved in 736 crashes since 2019, including 17 fatalities.) I think you're safer flying a Max than you are getting to the airport in a Tesla Uber. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
>Too blinded by short term gain they failed to consider the long term losses
To be clear, they weren't "blinded." They knew. These people aren't stupid. The reason their goals are short sighted is because their bonuses aren't based off the success of the company in 10 or 20 years, but this year. Often even by quarter. The system is setup in such a way that most CEOs and top executives have no motivation to look at long term success. They look at how they can meet their next goal to get their next bonus. If the company goes under in 5 years, who cares? They get a fat check for being fired, and will easily transition to another cushy job.
There is simply little or no punishment for long term failure. In some ways it's actually part of the process. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

Boeing sales team. Probably. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
The sad thing is the C suite probably still doesn’t think that they fucked up and are focused on cutting costs rather than enhancing quality. A whole bunch of business majors have made LEAN manufacturing their religion. When quality control starts messing with the schedule it screws the whole model up, which is why there’s such pushback on keeping the schedule. The problem is when things are pushed out the door and QA can’t put the brakes on things and say schedule be damned there’s a problem, people end up dying. And if people are dying, nobody’s buying. So then it ends up being if it’s Boeing, I’m not going. Pretty fucking sad that over the course of five years management has managed to ruin the brand reputation which took about 100 years to build. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
