I worked in geotech consulting and there is one piece of radioactive equipment used for soil testing that requires a certification to operate and transport in a vehicle, called a nuclear density/moisture gauge. Every year there’s an article that makes the news where a technician forgets to strap down the equipment so it doesn’t fall out the truck or not locking the box that holds the equipment and someone steals it. People really are stupid and lots of companies that give out work trucks don’t teach employees basic safety especially when towing or transporting fragile things.

I’ve been using Flipboard since 2012 and with the ebb and flow of how news is consumed over the last 12 years I think Flipboard has stayed true to its original goal, a simple news aggregator app . I remember when they first introduced ads into the app I was almost turned off, but the ads ended up being formatted similar to the news article so they weren’t intrusive to my experience.

There’s been a few news sources that are garbage but I just mute them and never see them in my feed. I think after 12 years the app has figured out my interests xD

I also read a lot of news in Spanish and the app does a good job of including non-US publications
