The European Space Agency, not 'Europe'. Just as annoying as calling the EU Europe, and calling both Europe despite different membership is just confusing.
I doubt there's anyone in the small group of people that actually need to care about the distinction between EU and ESA spacecraft who doesn't already know this is an ESA mission anyway, and if such a person exists they can probably read as far as the first four words...
> Its a common term for the USA that has no other meaning
Except, you know, the only “other” meaning of “America” is just literally the alternative name for Americas, both continents. Here is an obscure link to the description [0]. Even if you want to refer to North America, what about Mexico and Canada?
It's such an interesting mission too, keeping the spacecraft synchronized enough with incredible precision so that one can cast a shadow in just the right place on the other, all while the orbital mechanics of gravity are constantly insisting otherwise
"Given the diameter of the occulter disk on the OSC and the intended corona observation regions, the CSC must be approximately 150 meters from the OSC and maintain this position with millimetric accuracy, both in range and laterally"
Its the economics of an oligopolistic market compounded by an information problem - mist people do jot know how good customer support will be at the time they buy.
Do you mean an ODF/.odt editor? Why vibe code them? they already exist. MS Office can open ODF files now. The British government has been using ODF for most files exchanged with the public (e.g. downloads from gov.uk) for many years now with no issues I know of.
The point is that compliance around docx has become a commodity. Now that you have to support 2 formats with your application, that is orders of magnitude more complex.
Maybe what they really want her to do is get rid of 50% of her staff and the AI is just an excuse? In that case she should focus on "who can we do without?" rather than "how can we replace people with AI?"
The problem is that a likely outcome is that they will arrest two white men who are not the ones on the white list. That is discriminatory, at least if it keeps happening so that you get a higher rate of wrongful arrests of one group.
They are concerned about a higher rate of false positives (therefore a higher rate of incorrect arrests etc.) of white people (and probably Asians etc.) and women. This is also discriminatory.
People forget equality law runs both says. it is illegal to discriminate against men, whites, or heterosexuals just as it is to discriminate against women, non-whites or gays.
