An Airbus A320 Neo recently lost all 3 hydraulic systems at the exact same time while in cruise. They are supposed to be redundant. How come Airbus hasn't grounded the A320 Neo?

The cascade of fault warnings as recorded by the digital flight data recorder, all of which occurred within a minute,[4] involved the three multiply redundant hydraulic systems, elevator flight-controls, autopilot disconnection, an emergency exit door, and even an engine anti-ice warning.[5] The Airbus A320 has three independent hydraulic systems, coded blue, green, and yellow, such that the loss of all three is considered by experts to be virtually impossible. (Too, this aircraft make and model is the one of the most flown globally.)[6] For approximately four seconds all hydraulics control was actually lost.[7][8]

Jody Brown who drowned in a canal recently. Why do you think the articles didn't mention what prevented her from standing up? Canals are only 3-4 ft deep?

There are some odd things about this story.

Lots of stories lately of people drowning in canals but they seem to avoid the obvious question which is, why didn’t they just stand up? And the channel depth of canals includes the silt layer which covers the actual bottom, which can make canals a few inches shallower in places. There’s a myth that silt deepens canals, when it does the opposite.

Canals in the UK are still water, and do not have currents.

This story has been all over Facebook lately in the UK. Many people have commented asking why she didn’t just stand up, and that question got a lot of likes, but no actual answers.

What's your reaction to Paris Jackson coming out?

Michael Jackson's daughter Paris Jackson explains why she identifies as a Black woman ©Soycarmin (English) The heart of the matter comes down to a deeply personal conversation she had with her father, Michael Jackson. Despite her light skin and blue eyes, Paris has been very firm about her identity. It’s a stance that often sparks debate online, but for her, it’s not about how the world sees her—it’s about the roots she was taught to honor from day one.

She views identity as something passed down through blood and belief, rather than just physical appearance. Her father made it a point to instill a specific sense of pride in her and her siblings, ensuring they understood their heritage regardless of their outward look. For Paris, being a Black woman isn't a choice she made later in life; it’s the reality she was raised in.
