There are long checklists for handling uncommon scenarios like this. I would expect that was one of many items on the list, but I'm not familiar with the checklists. It is possible that the explosion disabled the fuel controls.
>When your boss tells you to fix the code that's causing 80% of your program crashes, do you complain that there's other code crashing, too? Or do you act like a real engineer, and fix the big issues first?

Sure, why don't we act as "real engineers"? If we did, we'd see that inequality and class issues are the "absolute leaders in terms of causing real human misery in America".

Those pareto-results however are swept under the carpet for more fashionable and inconsequential causes (because changing those would entail changing it for everybody, black, latino, white, asian, muslim, etc.), and it would also mean many changes to capitalism and how it operates (in the corporate space, education, health, legal, etc).

Whereas now it's just enough that e.g. a big business creates some diversity initiative, sponsors some apps with token multiracial people posing, and continue business as usual.

Not to mention that even if one wanted to tackle racism, telling people to "be less white" would be the very last thing they should do. If anything, the "pareto pricinple" that some racism is OK, since "our 20% shit doesn't stink, only the 80% of shit does" would only help increase actual bad blood against blacks.
that's still a breach of policy and of questionable legality? your company email inbox is the companies not your own.
PBS news hour is a total of 6 hours per week (weekend shows are 30 minutes each). In those 6 hours, they cover more than any one of the 24 hour news networks. You're killing your mind watching 24 hour news networks, any of them.
Not really either no. Of course by its very nature steganography is hidden. So it's hard to detect.

Really the communication we can have is quite restricted. The same reason we're not allowed to broadcast 'radio programs' as such (with the exception of the weekly news reading etc). Some countries also prohibit political or religious discussion. The license is meant to stimulate research and technical exploration. If you're looking for ways around it, you should consider whether this is really the hobby for you, as you probably want it for something it's not intended for. It's not a "production" communication service. It's a chance to build and explore technology.

There are some exceptions though like authentication and control systems for things like amateur satellites and repeaters. The same in emergencies: Encrypted emergency comms is allowed, such as passing personal messages from disaster-stricken areas. Of course things like personal details of survivors are not passed in the clear. But during normal ham operation these things are not allowed and for good reason.
For 2, it's worth looking at streaming audio input; we often use rnn's, which update state continually over time, and can make multi scale representations of the audio to help guide decisions. (eg, speaker embeddings which apply to whole sentences, and guide sample-level speech separation.). Audio's a great place to experiment with time; it's much cheaper than dealing with video, and there are lots of great data sets.

Transformers and attention are also tools for responding to the current context with a pretrained network.

A core problem is that if you update the weights during inference, there's seemingly very little garauntee of keeping prior quality high, and the models are already occult magic as it is. Federated learning might be another interesting area to look into for ways to address that issue.
So raise the price of the software so that you can afford more/better software engineers, to produce a more robust and flexible project. Then it'll be aerospace quality, aerospace costs.
Exactly. One React is bad enough, why do we need even more versions of it?

For some reason strong encryption is only allowed for gov use (emergency services, ...)

Since they do have weak encryption, there does seem to be some demand for that.
> "... a C backend is currently under development."

Slightly off-topic: I always wonder about the difference between "currently under development" and "under development". What is this extra word trying to tell us?

Often when I find redundant words like this in writing, they seem to be trying to reassure the writer that what they are saying will be believed. A thing is described as "important" when it really is, and "incredibly important" when the writer wants us to believe it is, but knows the evidence won't be enough to persuade us. Writing manuals advise "intensifiers weaken", meaning when you use an adverb to try to emphasize a quality, they actually raise doubt instead. This word "currently" seems to be acting in the role of an intensifier, but it is odd because it isn't one.

Now, to be clear, I don't actually doubt that the C backend is under development. Saying "currently" all the damn time is a sort of tic that many IT people have developed that you hear repeated more when they are nervous. What it implies, literally, is that it either wasn't, recently, or might not be anymore, soon; or both. But usually that is not what the speaker means to suggest.

Middle managers have different tics when they are actually lying to you. (Some people would say it when they open their mouths, but that is uncharitable.)
Report on Outages During the Southwest Cold Weather Event of February 2011 [pdf]
A combination of anecdotal observations and observed metrics from various intelligence/IQ/personality tests. These numbers are half derived from real numbers and represented in a way that matches my personal opinions of the world and not the data from which I sourced them.

Another way to think about those numbers:

Those 12 people who ignore everybody and do whatever the fuck they want... those are your soldiers or crime lords. If provided proper direction and motivation they are the ones who actually get things done.

Those 10 people left over as comedians. About 4 of them are your natural leaders.

It notes that cold weather events were actually somewhat common even as of 2011:

> This cold weather event was thus unusual in terms of temperature, wind, and duration. It was not, however, entirely without precedent. The Southwest experienced other cold weather events in 1983, 1989, 2003, 2006, 2008, and 2010. In fact, two of those years, 1983 and 1989, had lower temperatures than 2011. [224] But only in 1989 were the severity, geographical expanse, and duration of cold temperatures and high winds comparable to the February 2011 event.
Unsurprisingly, nothing has changed. Not only are you arguing against a statement I did not make, but if someone else had said that, your response is nonsense because it requires that Texas, alone, has been completely constrained by decisions made 40-90 years or more ago.

Inventions Created Due to the War
- Culture of development
People rarely know, even in ballpark what is performance of application until it is too late. We operate so high in abstraction that stuff mostly work by accident and people do not bother about putting daily server restart as a fix to bug. Technologies that are clearly bad are still widely used and teach at universities. Testing is either offloaded to manual QA testers or gamed by unit testing getters and setters. Architecture is decided by astronauts that not written line of code in a decade or by overhyped Junior watching conference talk.

- Employers
Once the application is shipped to the production team is moved to a new project or contract is terminated. Day after said release you have a legacy system that over time will just get worse. Maintenance even in big tech companies is a problem (Google). Employers would either drive a hype train and re-write their systems every year or reject any attempt to modernize legacy app. Rarely companies invest into giving time and opportunities for people to learn new things. And finally Dead Sea effect combined with Price's Law lead to some truly dysfunctional teams.
This resonates and I would add, on the theme of managing complexity higher up in this sub thread, it’s rewarding to reduce entropy locally. Like, yes the complexity is overwhelming and a significant, even singular challenge — and also the individuals in the weeds have an opportunity to use creative means to subdue it to degree that is material to the sustainable success of their team, group, department, start up, etc..
This is a great example of systems thinking. You may see some starving birds outside so you go feed them. But as people do that, the population of birds merely increases up to the malthusian point so that larger population is again on the verge of starvation. By feeding some birds you merely replaced one hungry bird with two hungry birds.

Systems thinking is about trying to understand the new stable equilibrium that will result in response to an intervention, rather than thinking about the local, immediate response to a given action (you feel good for feeding the bird. The bird feels good. What can be wrong with that?).

Once you realize that, the whole world changes. All of a sudden very obvious and simple prescriptions come into doubt.

Am I really helping make an OS better by reporting bugs? Maybe not. And not just an OS, but business models in general, economic development, poverty, education, family formation, trade, legal systems -- many questions that before had very simple, moral answers that were "obviously" right are now filled with questions and doubt. Are the long term results really what I expect?

And with this new doubt comes a realization that it's hard to tell what the effects of an intervention will be until you have a pretty deep understanding of the system you are describing as well as its future evolution in a wide variety of scenarios. This itself requires a deep understanding of human nature. As these are all in doubt, opposing views stop being people on the "wrong side" but people who have different predictions about core aspects of human nature which themselves are up to debate.

This is why I suspect the post was written by an old timer. Young, enthusiastic engineers just don't think in terms of systems, they tend to think in simple terms of stimulus/response, or right/wrong, help/hurt. This isn't due to a lack of intelligence, or poor intellectual curiosity. But simply because unlike the help/hurt localized stuff, a deep understanding of the long term behavior of a system can only come from living in that system, observing it respond to stimulus, and carefully observing how past interventions worked out. Over and over, over many years. Gaining that perspective is measured in decades, not years, of careful observation.

And after those decades, you will be painfully aware of how incomplete and faulty your understanding actually is. You become much more cautious, much more skeptical, and question a lot of obvious assumptions. Hopefully this additional perspective doesn't make you more gloomy or cranky, but it certainly seems that way to the enthusiastic new entrant, for whom it's obviously the case that when the public reports more bugs, this can only improve code quality and at worst will leave code quality unchanged.
Given that the most likely input is privacy sensitive, I would prefer a small CLI tool over uploading files to some server.
Not only fly but climb.

Commercial aircraft are required to fly safely should one of the two engines fail at any point of the flight, including takeoff at speeds beyond v1.
There have been similar studies on male fitness level at the time of conception.

There is growing scientific evidence in human and animal studies that should inspire every father-to-be to start exercising more and eating healthier before conceiving a baby. A wide range of studies have found that fathers who are obese at the time of conception pass on a predisposition to their children and grandchildren to be overweight, to develop diabetes, or both.

Anecdotally, as a college student in a state where marijuana is still extremely illegal, it is comically easy to obtain it while alcohol, a legal drug, is significantly more difficult to obtain (though still easy).

Following this pattern, from what I've seen psychedelics are relatively simple to get (albeit harder than weed), therefore legalization might actually make them more difficult to illegally obtain because dealers will be replaced by controlled medical practices in many markets.

Decriminalization will also open doors for people to study _how_ they affect the brain.

With Apple, all you get is either an Apple logo, or some obscure symbol when something does go wrong. It's a huge difference from PC BIOS that is far more informative and instructive.

It reminds me of the Douglas Adams quote: "The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at or repair."

"Too much theory" was the exact reason we studied RNA vaccines and have a fast, working covid vaccine.

Even if we stopped measuring it, it would still exist and so there’s no benefit to not measuring and in fact it would be worse as you would have less data to make reasoned and informed solutions to economic problems.

Accelerating SNES games using the SA-1 chip
But, the pilot should be assuming that its single engine will fail, and prepared for that eventuality when it's most likely, which is during take off.

Every flight the person sat at the controls ought to already know, before they're accelerating down the runway, what they're going to do when (not if, if you keep flying these little prop planes you've got to assume it'll happen eventually) the engine quits. What's beyond that airfield fence? A carpark? A pond? A school?

The "impossible turn" (landing where you took off) might legitimately be a valid strategy for your failure in some circumstances if you've thought it through, but if you're doing it because you had no plan you're very likely to find out why they call it that.
> I'd change my behavior if rates doubled. Wouldn't you, too?

But most customers want fixed-rate electricity. So in a free market, that's what they buy. The spot market largely only exists for suppliers, and if you run out of suppliers the problems with electricity are vastly harsher than you could ever get with gas.

The combination of market + contracts + consumer preference ends up causing shortages.

I'm not suggesting setting prices or trying to allocate supply. Still have the spot market. But I think it would help if there was also some money that went toward keeping a percentage of extra capacity around even if it's going completely unused and would never make a profit from the spot market alone.

Alternatively you could use regulation to force variable pricing onto consumers. That would probably work too.
I'm not the OP but it sounds like they're not doing anything right now. Which is the problem. What he's afraid of is that during an actual disaster they'll all go on the air and have no clue how things work.
Fear makes things memorable, makes it hard to turn away. It's an evolutionary thing.

If my mom calls me after she has been watching that shit, she sounds strung out on stimulants. Agitated, easily angered. She is normally a calm, fairly rational person.

It's fear mongering and it exists because it is effective. If one gets caught up in it, it can be hard to take a step back and realize what is going on. One might hear rationalizations like "I have to stay informed" or "it is related to my work". Very similar behaviour to other addictions.

I'm reminded of Tool lyrics:

"Stare like a junkie

Stare like a zombie
While the mother
Holds her child
Watches him die
Hands to the sky crying
Why, oh why?
'cause I need to watch things die
From a distance
Vicariously I, live while the whole world dies
You all need it too, don't lie

Why can't we just admit it?"

Note that ETOPS goes beyond just engine ratings, it also requires the operator meet all sorts of additional requirements (what if you DO have to divert - can you have the passengers retrieved within 24 hours, do you have food and shelter if you have to divert to a non-commercial airport along the flight path, are your technicians doing proper maintenance, etc).
It's not so much negative numbers as it is remembering the implicit sign flip when combining "more/increase/less/decrease" with "hotter/colder".
I've personally seen how PLA degrades in good compost in about three weeks (can go for less if you're more active). True, it is important to go through a stage of 60+℃ for a day or so, to soften up so bacteria get in, otherwise it may indeed take 6 months to get through a solid chunk, but that is quite different from 6+ months of 60+℃.

Yes, PLA can cause some issues in nature as it is acidic (lactic acid) and in quantity throws off pH balance in soil/compost, so many composters don't like to take PLA. OTOH, it is not a difficult problem to solve, and importantly, lactic acid is not inherently toxic in reasonable quantities (muscles generate it) and it shouldn't take too long for microbes to snatch it up once it is small enough.

To put that in contrast, typical plastics consist of toxic components that you do not want in your system, or even in your garden. They are mostly inert while intact, but they tend to slowly decompose and often leach even while in use.

Examples of compositions:

ABS - acrylonitrile (toxic at low doses [1]), butadiene (Group 1 carcinogen [2]), styrene (known carcinogen [3]);

Well it's too little to understand immediately but you can definitely come to grasp this stuff. There are a lot of mathy words here that do warrant their invocation but don't mean that the math is arcane. You seem like you're interested which is all that matters.

I'm going to be slightly handwavey/generalize here but I think it may be helpful. Predicate Logic is the basic logic that humans think of when they think "logic." It's, if-this-then-that style thinking with only basic "tools". Predicates are statements that can lead to other statements, for instance the predicate "it's raining" could imply the predicate "I will wear a jacket." You can even combine predicates such as, if "I'm hungry" _and_ "I have food in the fridge" then "I will eat." Typically, we use symbols instead of sentences so it will look more like (A and B) -> C.

Assuming you've done some programming, you're already used to predicate logic in the form of if-else statements. You've also been exposed to type theory. I think SICP is in scheme so types are a little bit hidden but if you've programmed any of the modern non-lisp languages i.e. Python, Java, C, etc. then you've seen types. Types are ints, floats, strings, etc.

You know how you can add two numbers but you can't add a number and a string without special rules? (1+1 == 2 but "cat" + 1 == ???) Type theory concerns these rules and a bit more. A question that type theory helps answer is, what are we permitted to do with certain classes of objects?

Once the blog post gets into dependent types, I think it becomes a bit tricky to pick up. Dependent types are types that "depend" on other information. For instance, we might have a type called array which is a sequence of numbers of any length. We might further have a dependent type called the PointTripleArray := Array<3> i.e. it's an array with 3 terms and they type of PointTripleArray is the dependent type. There are other more complicated ways to use dependent typing but I'll skip those.

Honestly, I kind of understand the rest of the post but not well enough to start explaining here. I wish I could. I think this is enough to get you started reading and learning though.
