Kodak film products are (confusingly) handled by Kodak-Alaris, which is a separate company that spun out of Eastman Kodak around 2012-ish and shares the Kodak brand with Eastman Kodak. Despite the similar names they are entirely separate companies, AFAIK.

My team did an integration with Kodak-Alaris a few years back and we toured their main office in Rochester.

The way Wikipedia describes it, Eastman Kodak is still the one manufacturing the film, and Kodak Alaris is just selling it.

Huh

Hopefully they'd be unscratched if the big Kodak goes down (I assume they still have some equity?)

I don't remember the details now, but my recollection is that spinning off the film business was tied to funding the pension, and the way the pension management was also spun off.

Im assuming you are referencing this paper [1], which is about competetive breath hold diving - diving to hundreds of feet on a single breath.

I've never heard of seals doing that kind of training.

I felt it in Boston, albeit very faintly

> The title of the submission is also "Nationwide FAA weather reporting outage"

Yeah, but the title is made up. There is noting in the official report about this being "nationwide".

The report only states that there is a metar outage consisting of 167 stations.

It doesn't provide any context on which stations are missing or how they are distributed.

Adding "nationwide" to the title is pure FUD IMO.

if the outages are on the east coast and a flight from the west coast is preparing to fly to one of the east coast airports that are affected, how is this not nationwide?

Full list of reporting stations is here: https://www.aviationweather.gov/docs/metar/stations.txt

The report is that 167 are missing.

That would be roughly 5% of US stations or 0.2% of worldwide stations.

I was able to look up meters for airports that I'm familiar with. https://www.aviationweather.gov/metar

So, it is real but far from a total collapse of the system.

Is the Aptera doing this? I remember them talking about having the motors in the wheels but I'm not sure if it's what you're proposing.

I go every year.

It's up to $12,000 now.

I would ask the interviewer and use it as an opportunity to show your knowledge of data structures and your ability to reason about trade-offs and talk through priorities.

I would say something like: "I think a balanced tree, such as an rb-tree, would be useful here for <reasons that make sense given the problem and the properties of rb trees>. I've written rb trees before and think I could write a basic one in 10-15 minutes or I could use <class from the std library, which uses a balanced tree>. Which would you prefer?"

Assuming what you said made sense I would take an interaction like that as a positive signal.

Where I live in semi-rural Maine, probably 90+% of the houses are on private roads on private land. If they weren't listed as routes in map services nobody would be able to find us.
