If I were the airlines I wouldn't be pushing for a single pilot I'd be pushing for zero pilots.

I'd start it with AI/remote pilot assist. Then I'd push it on cargo flights. Then I'd do people. I'd get the manufacturers to build planes without a cockpit (more space for cargo/passengers!)

I'm honestly confused as to why the industry isn't moving in that direction.

I'd just like to clarify: The “PhD” sentence was more important to my point than the “luddite” sentence

I find your comment both thought-provoking and well-formulated. As for the references to the Butlerian Jihad: I read Dune for the first time this summer. The quote “Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.” has lodged itself within my mind. I’m not as fatalistic as the author Dr. Chapman seems to be, but I find myself thinking about it nearly every time I read of some new AI development coming out of a big corporation.
I don’t think it takes a PhD to write an unsafe linked list in Rust. And an unsafe linked list in Rust would still be safer than the equivalent linked list in C++

Lots of speculation as to why people didn’t talk about the experience.

A few points should be made:
- We don’t feel velocity, we feel acceleration/deceleration. While a sudden drop would feel crazy, if the jet rolled out and into the dive it may be subtle enough initially that the free fall was hard to feel. The pull-up out of the dive probably would have been felt, but! If the pilot came on the intercom and talked about weather, or if the attending crew didn’t act odd after the event, people are less likely to assume something weird happened.

Add to this the likelihood of IMC, as well as the likelihood that the crew warned of potential light turbulence - you’ll have a plane full of well-primed people who accepted the experience as “mostly normal.”

Add to that that there wasn’t likely wifi for another 10min or so, people may forget pretty quickly…

The graph looks wild, but people don’t feel that raw data. Perception is everything, and it is not that surprising that accounts of this event aren’t popping up like crazy.
Truth is truth and there are so many truths in the world so which truth one decides to explore and when―that is an interesting truth as well.

> white supremacist culture.

Which is what exactly? To me this sounds made up.

You point to racist policies. These can very well have a racist motivation behind them, some certainly do. But they aren't from a culture, there are specific racist actors behind them.

I believe the strategy to be afraid of "tools" white supremacists might happen to use is infantile. Real and convinced white supremacists are rare, so far so good. If every action you take is informed by fear, it won't lead to solid decisions.

Do India has the issue of "strict laws which are enforced selectively"?

Similar approach was used in Turkey to take over the mainstream media from conglomerates. So they create very stick tax code which would be very hard to follow and the government doesn't care anyway and as a result people violate the code all the time. When these businessmen "misbehave", like one of their news channels goes a bit too hard on the government they send the tax people for an audit and uncover all the irregularities and slap a fine that would definitely bankrupt them and if the businessmen play ball most of the fine gets stripped away and goes back to business as usual. If the government loses faith with their ability to play ball or they think it would be better to take over the business, they move forward with the fine. That's how some of the larges businesses in the country were seized by the government or force-sold to government friendly businesspeople at a nice discount.
Well, this just proves unless you are willing to actually walk away you pretty much have zero leverage. I think he should have quit on the project long time ago to either have forced the big Co's to fund him or let someone else to take over. It's just what it is.

IMO it's risky to hire management consultants to tell you what you should do. The value they provide is usually market research (providing data points you wouldn't gather yourself) and expert opinions (PhDs and SMEs, ex executives). With that, you can take an informed decision on something and move on.
The other reason people hire them is less noble: ass covering. Can't be fired if you were just following the consultant's recommendations. CEOs do this from time to time.
I think of dataclasses as glorified tabular data that is not of size to justify numpy.

> In haskell, structs are defined with the keyword data. Maybe that is where the inspiration comes from.

In Haskell, Rust and Python you can also just have tuples, if you want to. In Haskell you can use `newtype` or `type` to name your tuples and use them as records.

Of course, as you say, you can also use the `data` keyword in Haskell. Or you can use church encoding to use functions as records..

Lots of (confusing) possibilities.
Myself and some other folks recently wrote some new docs on how to add new arches to Debian. With multi-arch, cross-compilers in Debian and rebootstrap, it has gotten a lot less painful. There are still a ridiculous number of packages that need porting to every new arches though. Some of the needed changes should be moved into toolchains in my opinion.

Where politicians lead, society will follow. If politicians are overtly selfish, it should be no surprise that society begins to shift in that same direction.

To add to that, Anaconda is for the data science ecosystem as NPM for TypeScript. For that reason, it is often assumed that people do know.

(Also, automatic tests with GitHub Actions, and similar tools, do wonders to make dependencies explicit AND tested.)

However, personally, I always link to such dependencies. "Obviousness" is a subjective criterion. It takes someone coming from a different language (or ecosystem), and it takes quite a lot of guesswork to figure out what to install. And if things do not work - it gives no clue if they are missing dependencies, incompatible versions of software, or maybe neither - there is something wrong with the code.

Consultants want and need the business. Telling the client their software/processes/org is a steaming pile of garbage will quickly get you fired and replaced. Been there, had that happen. They also always see consultants as master-level uber expert geniuses that can swoop in and fix anything whilst doing it under their direction and code/management flavor, so you can't win.
Agree. The secret sauce is very much in how they’re trained to quickly solve problems and synthesize information. In very short time frames.

In most cases, at the outset they don’t have more knowledge than the client though.

The lack of communication with ATC about the incident is odd. Surely an altitude loss of that magnitude should have caught the controller’s attention.

I don’t know the meteorological details but heavy rain was reported; so low-level wind shear during climb-out is a possibility. But why would the crew not make a PIREP once they were stabilized? It’s something other aircrews would like to know. And were that the case, why would the airline need to subject them to additional training, unless their LLWS escape procedures were improper?

You're correct, they count as new works. But that's not what's stated here, it's referring to all works whether reworked or not.

Chaplin died in 1977, so depending on a country's copyright laws his films are likely to remain in copyright until 2067. That means a 1918 Chaplin film will remain in copyright for 149 years. As I said, this is an outrageous abuse of copyright.

With such unreasonable copyright laws in place it's no wonder that so many just ignore them.
This article paints Rust and Haskell as very similar languages, but when I saw the title I was thinking about how they are fundamentally different. Rust is technical and exposes/requires you to understand the reality of computation, while Haskell hides it away and lets you program in a system based on lambda-calculus (you don't even have strict order of evaluation!) Interesting to see that they are very similar regardless.

There is our perception of reality but also how we make meaning of our perceptions, how we understand.
For example colors that do not exist in the physical reality but are products of our perceptions and our interpretation of those perceptions.

"The structure of the system of color categories is shaped by the neurophysiology of color vision, by our color cones and neural circuitry for color. Colors and color categories are not "out there" in the world but are interactional, a nontrivial product of wave length reflactances of objects and lighting conditions on the one hand, and our color cones and neural circuitry on the other. Color concepts and color-based inferences are thus structured by our bodies and brains."

I’ve been here for 8 years, and never known that to be true. At most, higher IC levels are expected to do more “direction setting” work (ie, writing a technical design doc for your team to follow, rather than writing all the code by yourself), but that’s still distinct from “management”

Indeed. I've can absolutely familiarise with that kind of burnout. So much effort and nothing lands. Lots of lessons and hindsight is wonderful thing. But at the time it becomes very demotivating and pointless.
Yes. This reverses the popular physicalist understanding of causality from “neurons firing cause your mind” to “measurable changes in the brain are reflections of conscious activity”, and so on.

This idealistic monism makes the most sense at a fundamental level. Since our mind is the only thing we can be sure exists, granting objective absolute existence instead to all those other bits and bobs and atoms and neurons—everything else but the mind—strikes me as logically inelegant overcomplication.

While swapping the directionality of this causal arrow may be orthogonal to most of STEM fields as they are now (philosophical concerns are irrelevant to physics), it could have immense implications for fields like medicine and human well-being.
I’ve actually had the opposite experience. I had clients that suspected their software/processes/org were a steaming pile of garbage - ie the business folk saw long cycle times, high amount of bugs and wanted to bring in a consultant to get a second opinion (yes, in most cases confirm).

It was a tough job to do fairly because as an engineer our natural inclination is to miss the context and only see the bad.
Really interesting writeup. Might be fun to try something similar with some old devices I have.
An equivalent list could be made, just with the numbers of 400k Hindus that were exodus in Kashmir. Thats not the point, the point is the view from India is a British outlet like the BBC is meddling with Indian upcoming elections. There is already decades of suspicion around what the British did to create divides between Hindus and Muslims with partition, so this is treated with high suspicion.
Probably not.

Inertial charging still requires that you put the effort in, the trick is that with watches it's very little effort – equivalent to winding the watch every few days – so you don't feel it.

If you have ever used a hand-crank torch or radio, or something else that converts effort into power, you'll know that it takes a fair bit of effort, and that's for low power devices. Inertial charging to recoup, say, 5k mAh to charge a smart phone for a day, would therefore require a lot of effort. This would be spread out over a day, but might feel like, for example, carrying a heavy backpack the whole day.

Glad you like the idea! It's a combination of GPT-3 and traditional layout optimization similar to this paper: http://www.dgp.toronto.edu/~donovan/layout/

GPT-3 is prompted to output JSON that describes which elements should be in the design (label, icon, image, badge, etc), their copy and which elements should be grouped together. Then the layout optimization module determines how those elements should be arranged spatially.

I eventually want to experiment with fine-tuning stable diffusion to handle the layout part of the problem, by outputting colored rectangles that represent the layout, like in this paper http://interactionmining.org/rico
