Please do not go down the path of the US. It’s far easier for two parties to collude.

Who feels the need to watermark this?

You're supposed to wind the tape around the pencil and eat it like spaghetti.

I’m not angry. I’m deeply disappointed.

No worries. In new vehicles, the paperwork says you have a license to use the Software that drives the car rather than ownership.

You do own the physical parts though for now.

There are models that predict precipitation amounts and river/lake stage (level), yes, but usually it's up to the lead meteorologist to make the call after reviewing those models combined with their experience with the situation. Precip rate is also an output of some forecast models that is considered when issuing an advisory. These models consume huge amounts of data that influence the output prediction in complex, chaotic ways. Better quality data can often produce better forecasts and lead to better decisions but whether or not the specific event would have had a better outcome is harder to answer.

That's a very difficult question to answer. I don't work there but I studied meteorology and I'm a volunteer for a forecast office. They take in so many data sources that serve as input into forecast models and humans. The qualify of the data has dropped, but which data exactly could have made a difference would be difficult or impossible to pinpoint. It's possible better quality data would have helped, but we don't know for sure.

The start menu is a Web app as I understand.

You can pry my 1080 from my cold dead hands.

I’ve sent out a lot of resumes, but every job that I’ve gotten was because I knew somebody who had a relationship to that place. This really sucks as someone who is extremely introverted, but I definitely recommend reaching out and trying to build your network in an attempt to know somebody who knows somebody who does what you want to do.

That’s OK. He’s making specific donors incredibly wealthy, achieving his main goal.
