There's already two AoA vanes mandatory on every plane (even non-MAX planes). There is a warning if they disagree in the optional package that the North American airlines bought, but not any other airlines. The warning is not much of a warning, just a disagree light. It would have been impossible for the Lion Air pilots to benefit from this disagree light, because they didn't know that it was hooked up to a control surface and neither did any other pilots, it seems.

> The planes seem eminently airworthy

An uncontrolled nosedive caused by a single sensor failure is not in anyone's definition of airworthy. It must be fixed. This lack of airworthiness was not the pilots' fault.

> That’s clear in the book itself, which makes unmistakable allusions to the Yale ugliness. “I have seen the effects of overidentifying with one’s group and witnessed mass delusions up close,” he writes. He rues America’s intense polarization, which perhaps makes this “an odd time for me to advance the view that there is more that unites us than divides us.” But advance that view he does.

Is it strange to anyone else that there'd be a run on sentence that starts with discussing how deluded some people are and ends with trying to claim a moral stance for unification?
Meh, nah. You can vote to further validate the legitimacy of an existing power structure. But voting, by itself, doesn't necessarily function as an act that reorganizes power structures. As an obtuse example, does voting in Russia or Venezuela help to reorganize power? At a certain point those that bestow the gift of voting upon a population also have the ability to limit the actual result of that vote.
My back is not feeling so great after 20 years of full-time sitting at a keyboard, I have to say.
It's about more than profit. People have been encouraged to seek fullfilment in their work and so chase their dreams through university and plonk out the end with a piece of paper that doesn't make them money. It wouldn't occur to many people to do work outside of their degree because otherwise what was the point of the degree?

If it were about profit everyone would work in remote mines or offshore drilling platforms from 18 until they couldn't anymore.
> I don't really understand the purpose of the unionization effort, beyond the facade of just wanting to in some way "fit in" with a social movement.

It's pretty naive to think unionization is just a social fad. It's a path towards job security, safety, good pay, and control over the direction of your own labor. Trendiness is pretty low on the totem pole.

That was kind of my point about partners. We’re the partner, we pay for every line of code.

It’s OSS, but no one is contributing to it for free because it’s also pretty boring stuff like handling a employee/manager vacation acceptance flow.

We didn’t go with OSS to get free development though, we went with it because it gives us ownership and transparency.

I’m sure the model doesn’t work for everything, but I’d argue that it does work for anything related to the public sector.

here's my pet peeve: its the omnibox in google chrome. it only chooses prefix-lengthening matches

if I am on guardian.co.uk/au I can find sub-spaces under this.

I also visit guardian.co.uk/uk but I cannot be told about it by google omnibox rules. But, URL forms are syntactically bound, the /... is well understood to identify a base-URL and sister URLs. The stringmatch logic should show me at least some of my sisters alongside the longer-prefixes under the au... sequence.
The North American airlines bought it and no others did. It was not described as a safety feature -- if it was it wouldn't be permissible to make it optional.

Even the current training does not tell pilots to know that an AoA disagree light is an emergency because it can cause the plane to enter an uncommanded nosedive via MCAS. I really don't think it's reasonable to expect the pilots to know things that Boeing is not even trying to tell them.

It isn't so much a stigma as it is a lack of advocates for trade and an abundance of advocates for white collar work. It would be naive to think there isn't some classism that causes this.
Because these VC-backed OSS companies don't do open source for ideological reasons* , they do it because it gives them a competitive advantage. A permissive license means broader adoption, which means more $. And now some of them are complaining that they need to compete to get rich quickly off of the software they donated to the public. If you gift someone a lottery ticket, you deserve $0 if they win. That's what you gave up when you gifted.

Everyone is so caught up in licenses, what they really need to ask is: "why can't these companies handle competition from cloud providers?". Don't tell me it's resources when these unicorns are getting VC funding to back a single technology when cloud providers support literally hundreds. They could take the Red Hat business model, but is hard and slow. I would imagine VC growth pressure makes it difficult to follow the Red Hat model.

*The software may have started open source for ideological reasons, but once you hit the VC funding stage, open source becomes strategically important for adoption reasons. The companies might believe in it (sometimes their unwillingness to accept PRs that would help the community but hurt their business makes you wonder), but that's not why VC funding happens.

Pilot priorities are: aviate, navigate, communicate. If you listen to incident recordings often pilots tell tower to wait and do not respond immediately. So radio calls are always low priority compared to actual flying. But I agree with point of view argument.

well, based on what you said you are a real estate investor and are hardly representative of average joe. another way to think about it is the math is for the residential RE market as an aggregate and as an aggregate it takes a shelter buyer regular joe 30 years of earnings to fully own a house. if you have issues with that stat please take it up with Bob Shiller. the rest of math is self evident assuming 4 transactions throughout the lifetime 'on an aggregate'.

> in the US, the buyer's agent is only working for the buyer. They're just paid by the seller (traditionally and stupidly).

I just went through this process. While the buyer's agent ostensibly works for the buyer, their main incentive is to get you to close. It doesn't matter if it's a good deal, a bad deal, or whatever. They take 3% so if you overpay or underpay by 10% of the appropriate value of the house that's only +/- 0.3% to them. They are much more interested in closing the deal quickly and moving on to the next than making sure you get what you want.
We forget just how incredibly worse life could be if people weren't inherently good. So many times throughout each of our days people are given the chance to make their lives better at our expense, and so very often they cede that moment back to us, and vice versa.

This is a bit of a weird take on the situation. I was at Yale when this whole debacle took place. Sure, there were some undergrads that took it too far, but for the vast majority it was simply the straw that broke the camel's back: there have been so many big and small slights over the years that were funneled into this situation. The response to the students legitimate concerns was tone deaf and dismissive which only led to the vindication of the loud and angry. I can believe that the Christakises certainly wanted to be good and empathetic and supportive to their students, however they most certainly failed at it. This self-congratulatory piece does little to inspire faith that they actually considered their own failings in this story.

I like the premise of the book, that we are all inherently good, but I am confused by the author's stance when they do not acknowledge any of their own dismissiveness and lack of empathy in the whole situation.

Invading another country in a war of aggression is against international law. I don't buy the argument that the US has any moral high ground here.

If another country started launching drone strikes on your country, overthrew your government, and stationed troops in your cities to quell insurgence -- how would you react? Would you accept the status quo or would you fight? Do you think they would also classify you as a terrorist for protecting your home?

Thanks, I see. I don't think it does much good to notice that a small percentage of pilots can be capable of figuring it out, if they have no other duties at the time.

That doesn't tell us that it's reasonable to expect pilots in command under stress to always figure it out. And they have to figure it out 100% of the time to avoid statistically unacceptable crashes. So I don't agree that pilot training is an acceptable answer given what we know so far.
You just described a body shop.

Heck this is what is done in India and other countries as well, to get around worker protection rules.

Keep several rota of workers, employ them at firm X. When the 9.999 years of work are up, “switch” the workers to a new firm.

Thus dodging the legal test which states that any worker who has worked at a role for more than 10 years at a single company, is a de facto employee and should be given pension and other recognitions.

Your design degenerates to this situation. The same way Uber degenerated from ride sharing and using surplus resources to people barely squeezing by.
One rule I always consider important:

Perhaps we are inherently good, but I think we're also groupish. How can that be reconciled? There must be an "other" -- something to conflict or compete with -- in some sense. Unfortunately, that conflicting other usually manifests as other humans. Examples are everywhere: democrats versus liberals, professor vs student, rich vs poor, nation vs nation, sports team vs sports team.

I'm excited to see if and how "Blueprint" addresses this.

Yeah, just that the base 2014 Mac Mini was being sold $500 new up until the point in 2018 when the new model came out. Even by 2016 and 2017 standards, 4GB 1600MHz DDR3 and 500GB 5400rpm spinning disk is abysmal.

I would expect the base model of any product (really the cheapest way to experience macOS without fiddling with VMs or hackintosh) would provide a usable experience and not one where you have to wait several minutes to open Chrome.

I could live with it mainly because I had another machine to go to while my 30m Unity build was running (and because I knew I was going to have to swap the HDD), but for a normal person who wants to browse the web and manage pictures, the $500 Mac Mini would have been an incredibly frustrating experience.

Yeah, I'm not entirely sure if the unification efforts or the author are going to be successful if he's putting passages like this in his book.
I don't think what I wrote is a FEXPR, which doesn't evaluate the result of the function call. I'm having a hard time parsing what you wrote or any of the sources you linked in such a way that says the semantics of macros differs from what I wrote (certainly the implementation gets a lot more complex and there are subtleties).
The support is really shallow, but using `let` and `const` is still superior to `var` where applicable.

Actual instrument-rated pilot here.

What people (including pilots) do under stress is resort to simple actions drilled in by training. That's why emergency procedure training is a major part of pilot training curriculum.

What goes away first under stress is capability for complex reasoning, which is what one would need to figure out what the heck is going on and take appropriate action. In this case an a/c doing uncommanded dive can be a result of three things: elevator controls malfuncion (unlikely in modern jets, the mechanisms for transmitting control forces from the yoke to the elevator are multiply redundant and well-understood to be critical), structural breakdown (empennage falling off would do that), or run-away elevator or stabilizer trim.

In most a/c the runaway trim can be only caused by malfunctioning auto-pilot (that's why APs have multiple redundant ways to disable them), so the pilots faced this situation react by trying to disable AP in all available ways and then immediately jumping to conclusion that there's something catastrophically wrong with elevator system or even airframe integrity. The thought that there could be yet another system which can do major trim adjustment doesn't even enter their consciousness.

Training (and/or being in a position where there's no immediate stress of wrangling misbehaving a/c) would help to get to the correct solution (disabling trim motor by pulling the circuit breaker).

That said, flying an a/c seriously out of trim is hard, and can cause an accident on its own (the fine pitch control is gone, and you can even be so far out of trim that you cannot do landing flare no matter how hard you pull up, which in heavy jets would result in structural breakdown when the plane slams into runway).
> Besides exact matches, prefix matches come first.

Google Maps used to do this, and when I entered "9831 Main St, Funky Town" once and a day later I would not remember the street number. Entering "Main" would not give me what I wanted.

Google Maps does what I want now AFAICT and entering "Main" will return "9831 Main St, Funky Town" first.
Truck driving is the most mind numbing job I could imagine. But if someone was offering to pay $200,000 in my city I would take the job until I made enough to pay off my house and then unless they could significantly increase the pay or reduce hours I would leave for something else.

Also everything I have heard from truck drivers makes it sound not so great at all. They are under constant pressure to keep driving even while tired and are constantly gps tracked for performance metrics.

Then i would have to measure NZ pretty damn poorly. The response so far has been to do exactly what the shooter wanted while spouting hollow gestures about how they refuse to utter his name because "it's what he wanted".

Maybe if his manifesto wasn't illegal to read, they could read it and maybe see that they are so caught up in the emotional signalling they are doing exactly what the shooter wanted them to do.
Can you provide some explanation/details when you say "but for the vast majority it was simply the straw that broke the camel's back: there have been so many big and small slighs over the years that were funneled into this situation."

Because honestly I followed the situation extremely closely when it happened, and the only thing I was disgusted by was how an intelligent student body was incapable of looking beyond the tribalism of their position and try to actually understand what the Christakises were saying. So if there is more to the story I'd like to know what it is.
Sounds like a genius idea to me. In theory at least.

Forcing students to read classic literature is as harmful to their sense of beauty as gym class is to their desire to exercise. All you accomplish is teaching them that reading is something unpleasant, to be dropped as soon as possible.

A possible better route to teaching appreciation of classic literature would be focusing on debate about which popular media is best. Natural competitiveness will make people take this seriously, and at some point people will figure out that comparisons to classic literature, discussion of formal rhetorical technique, etc. are highly effective tools for debate. Pretty much no kid will read Shakespeare for fun, but if it means proving that their favorite media is better than somebody else's favorite, it might be worth the effort.
