Marine F-35s grounded due to software concerns

WASHINGTON ? F-35B joint strike fighters based at Yuma Air Station in
Arizona have been temporarily grounded due to issues with a key support
system.

The issue centers on the stealth jet's Autonomic Logistics Information
System, or ALIS, The software behind ALIS is woven through the F-35, and
plays a vital role in everything from planning missions to maintenance. In
April, ALIS 2.0.2 was installed on F-35A models and Navy F-35C models, but
was delayed in getting out to the F-35B jump-jet variants.


Military contracting,

Just what happens when you start making things way too complicated.
Still happy about those self driving cars?


I don't get self driving cars.

You will when you're 90 years old and the wife wants to take away your
drivers license. I see it as a real plus for places like Florida with
a lot of elderly drivers who really shouldn't be out there. It would
also be nice for places with miserable commutes. You could sit back
and read the morning paper and catch up on your EMAIL while the car
takes you to work, almost like having a chauffered limo at your
disposal.


Keep voting progressive liberals into office and eventually you'll have
no choice but to give up driving in favor of self driving cars. They'll
decide it's best for everyone and mandate it.

That's a very real risk in a "Big Brother" safety culture. Driving
your own car might become seen as anti-social and dangerous. If that
happens new forms of rebellion might spring up where sabotage of self
driving cars becomes cool in some circles.

Once the technology is perfected and accepted it's very likely that
insurance rates will be lower for self driving cars. Other advantages
may accrue like having the car drop your kids off for soccer practice
and then return home for other errands.
