BigLeafyTree posted:What's the legality of something like this? If you're suffering through some very painful but educational thing, can they just keep you hanging on so they can learn? If they don't have right-to-die laws, then they can keep you around just to keep you around. It may not have been involuntary though.

When I did contract work at a nuclear lab, the site training taught us which of the klaxons meant "gather in designated area", and which meant "run". My favourite phrase from the training was "unfavorable geometry", I think.

13Pandora13 posted:Do you have any sources/samples of these? It's something I find super interesting but googling "nuclear klaxons" or "nuclear sirens" doesn't really give you a lot of specificity or different alarms, just the generic air raid/tornado siren. We got paper handouts, but I've lost mine in the intervening decade. It was at PNNL if that helps find it. The Lone Badger posted:I thought it was 'dangerous geometry', which is an even cooler turn of phrase. I think the big book of nuclear accidents uses "unfavorable", and the scientists at the lab did, but I wouldn't be shocked to discover that there were different phrasings around.

LUBE UP YOUR BUTT posted:Don't the guys who push the literal red button in the launch silos/SSBNs know? I thought the drill worked such that you put in the drill-meaning code and then pushed the button. Because of the code you use, pushing the button does nothing. Or maybe plays a sad trombone sound, I suppose.

No no, the intent is to drill, even when you get a live code.

It's not odds or probability. Nobody is rolling a die to see who was the murderer. It's the historical prevalence, and doesn't have predictive power for any specific case.

Filox posted:One thing I can't help wondering is what the gently caress were mom and dad thinking? In several of these cases, these were tiny babies, only a few days old, a new factor in the home and the parents just leave a large dog with access to the baby without having had time to ascertain that this dog can be trusted with the baby? When you have a new baby your brain isn't working correctly, because you have functionally stopped sleeping. Combine that with the fact that they're used to having the dog around and don't think much about where it is, and I can understand it. I dunno what the cop was thinking, though.
