Being uninformed may result in accidental injury or death.
rather than your blanket advice to just avoid risk altogether.
The Division of Minerals is legislatively mandated to conduct the State's AML program to identify inactive mines, rank their degree of hazard, and carry out activities to secure these sites
Clearly people do go into abandoned minesites to evaluate their current state.
The back end of https://www.spglobal.com/market-intelligence/en/industries/m... carried a much larger database of global abandoned mines withmore infomation on why production lapsed (a good number may still be economically feasible with modern techniques) that wasn't simply limited to Nevada. That data should still be there on request.
They're not exactly burdened by extreme sports injuries, most surfers, for example, are injured crossing roads, in car accidents, or at work falling off roofs, etc.
Citizens have an obligation to act responsibly when they partake in broad social contracts such as shared health care and insurance. Such a society must regulate access to areas of extreme danger (disused mines) to stop mentally unwell citizens from endangering themselves but more importantly endangering their fellow contract holders.
The whole inland gold belt region is filled with abandoned shafts and it's rare anyone falls down them.
What's the cost benefit in fencing off tens of thousands of individual pre existing shafts and to what degree of robust security construstion do you recommend? More to the point, what's the tax payer out of pocket cost for that?
You don't appear to have actually thought this through in any pragmatic sense.
Growing up in the Kimberley it was all Bull Buggies, Broomstick choppers, Quarter Horses and dirt bikes, all intrinsically a wee bit risky - but good practice for "grown up" geophys surveying in custom STOL crop dusters.
3:54 B taurus indicus begs to differ! (no oysters on the menu plz?)
The guy who taught me to swing a Brunton was over four times my age, and whenever we were hiking in to a site he led us in: this basically meant we young vegetables would be frantically scrambling up to a nearby ridge so we could spot where he'd got to, only to eventually notice him waving cheerfully at us from the next ridge line over.
'Wee bit risky" is right, keep your head on a swivel and don't be on the quad bike when the irate bull flips it and all is okay.
Your leading surveyor was very much our father when we were in single digits .. four hour long walks across rugged landscapes and down gorges with him as a barely visible dot waaaay up ahead.
He's a lot slower now approaching 90 .. but can still split wood and shovel a tonne or two.
I agree with you. My insurance agent sends me a birthday card, but it's a service they pay for and they likely don't even know it's happening. It's the opposite of a personal touch.
They need to go after the landlords as well. If they just go after RealPage there is nothing stopping landlords from doing it again with different software.
Only if the software exists. By going after RealPage they ensure nobody else is stupid enough to write software this way. They might use software, but that software either will not have as much information, or it will have different information that they will try to claim doesn't violate the rules. The first is legal, but makes the cartel much harder for form. The second is illegal, but it is harder to figure out how to get information and make it seem like you are not violating the rules.
It already is an ad platform. They want to turn it into the surveillance platform of choice for governments, businesses and law enforcement alike.
Windows is already a privacy farce. The OS and 3rd party drivers capture a large chunk of what you do. Imagine having everything you do in one tidy location that can and will be used against you at the drop of a hat.
Even tough I like to be on Microsoft ecosystem, I have to acknowledge that Azure is the new golden goose in terms of Azure OSes, now that we are back into timesharing.
