I'm assuming they'd be out of fuel by now so they have to be on the ground one way or anothe. At least this time, the missing plane was flying over land instead of the ocean, so they have a better chance of actually finding the wreckage and figuring out what happened. Or maybe they get really lucky and the plane was being flown by Malawi's version of Captain Sully and the plane and vice president are safely on the ground somewhere with a crazy story for Hollywood to turn into a movie.
Librarian? I know that before google, if people had general questions, they would call their librarian, and they will actually find the answer for you. Unfortunately, the title is less prestigious nowadays.
Sort of. More attuned to modern methods like wikis, FAQ centers, that sort of thing.
I did not know there were doctoral level degree programs for it, but I've both written for and worked with knowledge management systems myself.
You know though,,,Wikipedia lists his degree as being from Bolton University in the UK. I don't see that as a degree program on their website.
Eh i'll start and stop by pointing out they provided an improper comparison and noted the use of Google for this very need, then you know...not using it.
Yes. If it's easier, think of them as the corporate version of a librarian whose job is to make sure that all of the work and books and scraps of paper that engineers produce get put into a tagged, categorized, and maintained database for future access.
This way, when someone 2 years later needs to know how, say, an older spec worked, *someone* (the knowledge manager) would have put it in a place where a search engine can find it. Stuff that isn't recorded or documented gets thrown into the memory hole, which causes untold agony for people who are maintaining old code.
It is a very special skillset, and a good knowledge manager is a golden goose; bad ones basically ruin the entire industry. :/
Think an amalgamation of business administration, management and information systems/science. It's a legitimate degree and an actual field of study dealing with aspects of creating, managing, and sharing knowledge, useful for organizations but also important on the macro-level public policy for education and public health (think pandemic communication stuff).
The “even” thing shoved into every exasperated rhetorical non comment comment on the internet is absolutely a recent thing. Regardless, Reddit has spoken and my post is lost much like the subject at hand
Have you ever seen Friends? It’s not new. It’s been around a while colloquially to add emphasis. It could be more recent on Reddit, but I’ve heard it so much I can’t really tell.
Love your username. I could absolutely Broadway all day!
I like the faith of BBC to assume their audience wont know much about vice prasident, to include brief summary about his life, but will know where Malawi is, so they never mention where the cou try is.
I only know of Malawi because of a several year stint in the cannabis industry where i was helping breeders find good land race seed stock to “domesticate” into new strains for commercial sale. Malawi Gold got popular but they have a variety of indigenous phenotypes that seem excellent from a distance.
I like the faith of the commentor to assume their audience wont know much about Malawi weed, to include a brief summary of weed and work done in the area, but will know where Malawi is, so they never mentoin where the cou try is.
I know about it because I was into African cichlid species in my aquarium, also a coworker had a tattoo of a country I didn’t recognize and it was Malawi because he spent most of his childhood there while his dad worked for an embassy.
LMAO, of all the things to bitch about...
What do you want them to do, give you coordinates? As if you would evrn be able to figure out that riddle, as your device is apparently not equipped eith a Map app. At the end of the article it notes that it is from BBC Africa, but I guess that must be too vague for you and your ilk.
It was considered to be an accident and poor decision making to fly in those conditions. There are mechanisms to determine the next president, with an interim president and elections to be scheduled around 60 days afterwards. The list of candidates is curated, so any significant change is within acceptable limits. The current frontrunner is his son, but there are fears of hereditary rule. Until then, it will be fairly muted at least to the Western audience.
Hello from Malawi dear friend, I am writing you today to ask for help in getting my son elected president after the tragic accident. He needs a small sum of $ 100 000 USD by the end of today. If he is elected he promised to reimburse each investor $1 0000 00 USD by the end of month. Please help me help my son
Maybe stop taking such a laissez faire attitude towards world news and seek out information that you want to consume. "No one told me about it" doesn't mean that it didn't happen, or that people aren't talking about it.
I mean it hasn't been massive international news anymore because it hasn't had to be.
The crash was an accident of helicopters and bad weather, and Iran has protocols in place to fill in the vacant roles. I think people in America just assumed that Iran was on the precipice of collapse and were expecting more chaos, instead of mundane bureaucracy.
it crashes into the fucking ground and it takes rescue crews a little while to find the wreckage because they didn't watch it hit.
They know the general area of where it is, they just need to find the wreckage and they're not going to print "Yeah, plane probably crashed and everybody's definitely dead" until the wreckage is located.
Pretty sure we still rely on radio reporting for ATC to track planes over the ocean. AF447 went missing, search wasn't called until hours later cause the ATC on the other side was like 'Huh, we haven't heard from them in a while' and called their departure point's ATC to see what was up, and they were like 'We thought they were with you guys'.
And then even knowing where they last were, it took two years to find the wreck on the ocean floor, 13,000' down.
The internet has brought the world so close together, we forget the ocean is still an enormous black hole of sorts where HF radio is still in style. We know more about space than the ocean, cause at least we can see into space.
it's a degree in a valid academic discipline of knowledge management. if you heard about it for the first time then it's a pitiful reflection on your education system
I've got a BA from a pretty good University and work a mid-level finance job, never heard of knowledge management, nor was it ever offered at my school that I know of
It's the study of how an organization manages their institutional knowledge. Capturing best practices, lessons learned, etc. and having processes so that new generations of employees aren't reinventing the wheel.
If it's not in the air, they should check the ground
[удалено]
“What exactly is a water landing?” George Carlin
Clinging to a pillow full of beerfarts
I hear that astronauts are in the ocean.
Too soon
There actually more planes in the ocean than planes in the sky just counting WW1 and WW2 fighter planes alone!
I never seen plants grow out of no toilet.
I’m sorry. I just laughed out loud. Hope everyone okay but damn that was the slapstick dry black humor I needed today.
My God, you might just be on to something.

Did you know there are more airplanes underwater than there are submarines in the air?
Their navy has more planes underwater than ships in the sky.
But there's so much garbage on the ground!
Maybe it entered a Hyperloop.
Under-rated comment right here ^
It's the top comment, so it's sufficiently rated.
Username most certainly does not check out. Unless, of course, we're talking Duff.
Maybe her name is Hillary and she is…hot?

Swank and Scott?
Was trying to be funny, y’all
Malawi Vice would be an interesting TV series
I want a Malawi Mice t-shirt.
It says he holds a PhD in "knowledge management". What even is that?
It's the process of archiving or institutionalizing knowledge to be passed on to others.
Librarian? I know that before google, if people had general questions, they would call their librarian, and they will actually find the answer for you. Unfortunately, the title is less prestigious nowadays.

Well it was several years ago. Colleges do sometimes change curriculum for a degree path and subsequently the title of the degree.
>before google There's so much to unpack here, the sarcasm required to give a decent answer would likely kill me.
Give it a go! Go on!
Eh i'll start and stop by pointing out they provided an improper comparison and noted the use of Google for this very need, then you know...not using it.

Knowledge management in an organization is different from the categorization of literature in a public library.
Think an amalgamation of business administration, management and information systems/science. It's a legitimate degree and an actual field of study dealing with aspects of creating, managing, and sharing knowledge, useful for organizations but also important on the macro-level public policy for education and public health (think pandemic communication stuff).
Well, you’d know what it is if you had a PhD in Knowledge Management in the first place.
Sounds adjacent to Epistemology
I had one of those when I gave birth!
This joke is a fun one because there’s at least two different procedures this could be. I’m told one is a lot more desirable than the other.
You're one step ahead of me then because I just know about the painful one. Tell?
Did you give birth to philosophy?
Did they call the kid Thales, Heraclitus or Parmenides? No? Well they DIDN’T give birth to philosophy then!!!
He has an information mind-palace thing like the bad guy in Sherlock Holmes
I'm having flashbacks to my rhetoric classes.
Ah yes the study of Jeffery Epstein!
Knowledge Management is a valid field of study though. Tacit vs. Implicit knowledge management within a corporate environment still requires maturity.
What does that even mean, my brethren?
It's the graduate level of "thought wrangling"
I barely passed remedial brain storming.
PhD fields of study can get very granular.
The management of knowledge
It's the applied extension of academic knowledgology.
Something you receive after taking courses such as Class 101, studyology, Principles of intermediate, and Learning!
Any of those classes by professor Professorson?
Librarian? Data analyst?
Well that’s what i would say if i were pretending to be a librarian
It’s a field that studies how random words like “even” get inserted incorrectly into sentences “because the internet”
You need some colloquial knowledge management. And some standard knowledge management if you believe this didn’t happen until the internet.
The “even” thing shoved into every exasperated rhetorical non comment comment on the internet is absolutely a recent thing. Regardless, Reddit has spoken and my post is lost much like the subject at hand

Maybe that's just another way of saying Digital Asset Management? Maybe he was really good at making labeled folders and tagging files.
It’s like. The Study of study. Or often times the study of research itself.
I like the faith of BBC to assume their audience wont know much about vice prasident, to include brief summary about his life, but will know where Malawi is, so they never mention where the cou try is.
Malawi is a city in Florida. Will Smith wrote a song about it.
🎶 Welcome to Malawi, bienvenidos a Malawi 🎶
Fun fact, the lady that said that part in the song was Malawian!
I am so tired of this Willenium.
I care less about Will Smith than I care about Malawi, and before you told me, I didn't even know where it was.
It was a British colony until 1964.
I only know of Malawi because of a several year stint in the cannabis industry where i was helping breeders find good land race seed stock to “domesticate” into new strains for commercial sale. Malawi Gold got popular but they have a variety of indigenous phenotypes that seem excellent from a distance.
I like the faith of the commentor to assume their audience wont know much about Malawi weed, to include a brief summary of weed and work done in the area, but will know where Malawi is, so they never mentoin where the cou try is.
I’ve most likely smoked your weed!
Lol, exact same reason I know about Malawi. One of the best landrace adaptivars.
I know about it because I was into African cichlid species in my aquarium, also a coworker had a tattoo of a country I didn’t recognize and it was Malawi because he spent most of his childhood there while his dad worked for an embassy.
From my first hand experience the weed was terrible but I’m also from Canada so was used to top shelf stuff.
Excellent up close too!
Reminds me of this [Onion News segment on Andorra](https://youtu.be/3q_iqrvnC_4?si=T6Ez0Gkw-qGmmdUu).

“Malawi, a country in east Africa,…..” how hard is that?
How about a general direction like East, West, Central Africa? I don't think that is asking too much and would have not taken any effort at all.
So like, Malawi is north and west of Mozambique, east of Zimbabwe, and South of Tanzania. That help?
hehehe BBC
Remember when the president of Iran died in a plane crash last month and we never heard about it again.
It was a helicopter crash.
Close enough
No, I think it was too close. That's why it crashed
It was considered to be an accident and poor decision making to fly in those conditions. There are mechanisms to determine the next president, with an interim president and elections to be scheduled around 60 days afterwards. The list of candidates is curated, so any significant change is within acceptable limits. The current frontrunner is his son, but there are fears of hereditary rule. Until then, it will be fairly muted at least to the Western audience.
Good luck to your son!
Lmao, auto correct. But thanks.

Uh, you would have heard plenty if you bothered to look.
For Iran i think this is more like them losing their Vice President. The ayatollah is the figurehead of gov and wields the most power
Maybe stop taking such a laissez faire attitude towards world news and seek out information that you want to consume. "No one told me about it" doesn't mean that it didn't happen, or that people aren't talking about it.

"people in America" You probably mean people in general, but you're too used to call everyone American. I'm not American, thank you very much.
We’re now two for two on authority figures in skycraft going missing I guess. First the prime minister of Iran and now this.
Yikes, seems like a bad time for country's leaders to be flying.
With modern technology, how on earth does a plane just *go missing*??
it crashes into the fucking ground and it takes rescue crews a little while to find the wreckage because they didn't watch it hit. They know the general area of where it is, they just need to find the wreckage and they're not going to print "Yeah, plane probably crashed and everybody's definitely dead" until the wreckage is located.

Cries in MH-370
Maybe Madonna adopted him?
Death by snu snu?
Time to send in Snake Plisken
I thought he was dead…
Please don’t be a Boeing, please don’t be a Boeing!
How does this keep happening!?
This is potentially disastrous news for Malawi. Hope he’s found alive.
Is the vice president that important? Or is he in particular special? This isn't a mocking question, I'm legitimately curious
As I understand it (from Malawi coworkers) he was up and coming, well loved, and a hope for a less corrupt government.
> a hope for a less corrupt government. So are there conspiracy theories about the crash there then?
Nothing provable but this kind of incident is made for conspiracy theories.
Honestly Im starting to think world leaders should just drive everywhere
There's a reason dictators in Russia and North Korea take trains.
What do you mean missing? Where did you see it last?
Ask mom. She'll find it.
What the fuck is a degree in “knowledge management”?
[удалено]
Fun to drive up here in the Hollywood hills

Sets the bar for "how insignificant a country" and "how insignificant a political position" still gets you a headline when your plane goes missing.
I guess someone towed it out of the hangar and hid it somewhere?
Time traveled into the future like in Manifest
Dam did you know only 9 out of 10 people on planes make it back to the ground
The CIA really been CIAing recently.
Igor Girkin has been busy lately
Was he going to testify against Boeing?
Badly worded headline
Indeed. It looks like they've revised it to "Aircraft carrying Malawi vice-president goes missing"
Not a shit movie idea…
