Headline is misleading. A fair number of launches are pushed back due to a number of reasons and this is definitely worthwhile mentioning in the article itself. But mentioning "on second try" in the title itself is misleading as y

Not really. It is usually the case where a lot of young men/women come here for their master's at the age of 22-23. And typically get married around 28-32, so this would be very useful for the spouse who wants to continue their ca

That might not work for already existing constructions. The system can be designed to not add to the fire, we can possibly add this to the already existing power infrastructure. This is a solvable problem.

We should think about investing in smoke/heat sensors that can broadcast an emergency signal that can be placed in the wilderness areas close to human habitation. Just thinking through here, we need to determine the max radius of fire

Which company that creates content does not promote itself? By your logic, warner bros and other production houses should not display their signs before the movie starts. You seem to fail to see these streaming services as production house
