Yes, they both have an experimental airworthiness certificate, but when the FAA issues an experimental certificate, it comes with operating limitations (technically part of the airworthiness cert). The operating limitations you get depend on the specifics of the aircraft.

The more dangerous the plane is to people on the ground, the more severe the limitations. For example for the really dangerous ones, they'll give you a limitation of "Flight over a densely populated area or in a congested airway is prohibited."
Had never heard that either. At least Knuth did not take it personally, he used Pascal later :)
Frothing at the mouth is exactly what is called for here. A plane that loses a big chunk is indeed “fucked”, the only reason someone didn’t die is that that particular seat wasn’t occupied. There should have been many many redundant safety systems and procedures here with either didn’t exist or failed. People should be out for blood because there are obviously serious problems at both Boeing and the FAA.

This was not a near miss, this was a 10 out of 10 failure of the kind which should never happen. The NTSB report will indeed show much but there is no reason to not demand congressional hearings and criminal investigations immediately. Everyone on that plane should start a class action suit against the FAA and Boeing immediately.
The complaint is probably more about teaching C too early and getting fixated on that. The importance and eventual need for learning C is hardly questioned.

Yup, I was thinking of kolay gelsin. I have heard and seen it everywhere- signing off group texts, saying bye to the neighborhood butcher, even as business names, like “Kolay Gelsin water delivery”.
What strikes me with the ATC recording is that I can barely hear what they say (and that's the case with almost every ATC recording I heard before). And that's without being in a noisy environment (plane in flight). Is the quality really that bad? Doesn't that cause miscommunications? It seems like a fairly fixable problem in 2024.
How often do you use Mercurial, compared to Git?

The times I use Mercurial, it feels like it manages to abstract away the gory details while still achieving almost everything git does. Mercurial even has queues built-in, whereas Git needs something like stgit or topgit to achieve the same. Would you say that Mercurial meets your expectations?

Two more to the scientists' tab:

1. No tests of any kind. "I know what the output should look like." Over time people who know what it should look like leave, and then it's untouchable.

2. No regard to the physical limits of hardware. "We can always get more RAM on everyone's laptops, right?". (You wouldn't need to if you just processed the JSONs one at a time, instead of first loading all of them to the memory and then processing them one at a time.)

Also the engineers' tab has a strong smell of junior in it. When you have spent some time maintaining such code, you'll learn not to make that same mess yourself. (You'll overcorrect and make another, novel kind of mess; some iterations are required to get it right.)

Right and I think "scientists" simply are more intelligent than average Joe Coder. Intelligent people produce better software.

It is easy to learn some coding, not so easy to become a scientist.

To becomes a scientist you must write and get your PhD-thesis approved, which must already be about scientific discoveries you have made while doing that thesis. Only people with above average IQ can accomplish something like that, I think.
This is a pretty arrogant reply. Whatever “field” you refer to, the problems at Boeing cut across disciplines and appear to go to systemic management problems. It’s not just issues engineering new systems.

There have been well documented issues also with assembly and inspection. Boeing has a track record of recent quality problems at assembly time and even clashed with FAA on how to detect defects

That's true. However, that's implicit in the way these commands are defined. It has to be that way to make working with Git efficient, which is optimized for common use cases. For example, to cherry-pick a single commit.
The important part that makes the parens in the second operation unnecessary is that addition is associative, not that it's commutative. And concatentation is also associative, so even if those were strings, the parens would still be unnecessary.

That is, (a+b)+c == a+(b+c).

Interestingly, C integer addition is not actually associative, since (1+INT_MAX) + (-1) is UB, but 1+(INT_MAX+(-1)) should in principle be defined as INT_MAX.
Git does not store changes it stores a tree with the whole state of the repo for every commit. This tree has references to the files, when a file is changed a new copy is always added and the new commit will reference the new tree with the reference to the new file.

When you ask git for a diff it compares the trees and when there is a difference it compares the files the trees reference and it shows you a diff.

Git does not store diffs, it stores file trees.
That's so wildly far from my point.
I'm not standing by comments that go against the safety culture of aviation

No, nobody should be "frothing at the mouth", that's an ignorant and unhelpful behaviour. Air travel didn't get safer by doing that

It landed fine and it is in principle repairable. No, it is not fucked

Again someone who doesn't know nothing about the subject and thinks that experts haven't thought about their first conclusion after 5 seconds of thinking.

> this was a 10 out of 10 failure

5 out of 10 wrong on that comment. The seal failed and everything else worked. The masks, the procedures, the emergency landing.

But yes, either the installation of that door seal was faulty or there is a systemic issue with that seal (not sure how many customers are flying with it as opposed to just having the door there) - or a combination of factors with something else in between.

> Although a door is available for that row in the plane's design Alaska chose not to exercise that option, having the doors deactivated by Boeing before delivery.

People will slam on the brakes when they see an animal run out on the road. It's generally considered better driving practice to not do that, as you risk rear end collisions, but that behaviour from humans does exist.

It is not like that instructors are necessarily good at actual C, not alone teaching C though.
The receivers for LiveATC and the like are frequently somewhat compromised in terms of quality and location. This can cause poor quality reception depending on the location and distance away of the transmitter.

The radios and antennas on both the aircraft and for ATC are not only of much higher quality but are also positioned as perfectly as possible so as to maximize Tx/Rx performance.

All that to say, the pilots and ATC nearly always experience more clear comms than the general public has access to.
There's also autopurge, which can take arguments of additional packages to purge, like autoremove. So you only really need _one_ command.

For the past two months, I have been avoiding 4 737max flights already. This is to the extent that one of them was to transit for 10 hours (without max), compared to a 2-hour convenient layover with 737max. I guess this will stay as my personal rule of thumb for the foreseeable future.
It is not possible for one switch to kill them.

It is possible for two switches, and multiple external factors including scandalous levels of procedural error by the Captain, First Officer, and maintenance technician to kill them.
How do you know it's related to Boeing's actions in any way? Why do you think there weren't any safety procedures, and again, how do you know it's Boeing's fault they weren't followed?

That doesn’t make you an expert on manufacturing.

I do resonate with your comment a lot, but the portable assembly aspect also drove much of the current C use. As a compromise we may teach two quite different architectures and ask students to write a single code that runs in both. This way they can avoid false beliefs like `sizeof(int) == 4` and hopefully still learn common aspects of most architectures that shaped C's design.

Disagree. Well, maybe still acceptable if the software is small / limited to a single paper. Having worked on a code base the people writing it learned programming on that job, guessing their intention is like archeology. And each iteration tended to add some complicated interdependence. Or like when int errorCode came from other, overlapping error ranges.

A part of the "new" code base is exactly as described by TFA. Including most interfaces having only one implementation. But while annoying, I am more able to work on it without things breaking...

I think a 30 minute shower contributes to a global water shortage in the same way that plastic straws contribute.

The link you’ve provided says 90% of water usage is on the generation of electricity, food, and products.

I think the GP should continue to take 30 minute showers, because even if they stop, even if every person stops, it’ll have a negligible effect on water usage.

Much like plastic straws.
Choosing false = 0 and true = 1 is putting the cart before the horse.

It is equally true that 1*0=0 is the same as false|true=true, and 0+1=1 is the same as true&false=false.

But it is also not true that 1+1=1, so it is probably wrong to equate 'or' with '+'. The operation has the wrong properties.

As someone who sometimes dabbles in electronics, 0 = true makes a lot of intuitive sense to me. You have your pin with an open collector, your pull-up resistor, and “true” (as in, it is true that the transistor is conducting) pulls the voltage to ground, which is 0.

As someone who uses a Unix shell, 0 = true makes a lot of intuitive sense to me.

> The US military's fundamental approach is to use sensors to see the enemy before they see us,

That probably works out in the open seas, but once you approach (enemy) land those radars that can detect anything that moves from 300 kms out are of no strategic advantage anymore, cause you do you know that there are enemies there by definition. Case in point is the current conflict against the Houthis, there's no use of the US Navy's very expensive radars when trying to counter-act some guys launching cheap drones from 30-40 nautical miles out (i.e. from the Yemeni shore).

Also, in regards to the general "no-one is thinking about that" sentiment, we've had such moments in the past, when the lack of any real naval combat for decades meant that it was very hard for non-institutional actors (like this guy is) to impose their views against the mainstream consensus. The best example that I can think of is the end of the 1800s - the early 1900s, just before WW1, when almost no mainstream naval theorist was really mentioning subs (other than in passing) or the air component, everyone was focused on speed and fire-power, hence the dreadnoughts (which, looking back, did not have that big of a role to speak of, other than being money-sinkers for the Brits). To say nothing of the fact that (if I'm not entirely mistaken) naval rams made it into the 1890s for new ships, and that was only because of that one battle at Lissa in 1866. If it hadn't been for Tsushima in 1905 we would have most probably had naval rams going into WW1, because that had been the general approved consensus.

And regarding fighting Chinese/Russian advanced missiles, even if the US Navy manages to implement all that tech in order to be effective against said advanced missiles nothing stops the Chinese/Russians from adopting Houthi tactics, i.e. resorting to using cheap drones/cheap "missiles" when the US Navy will approach their (China's and Russia's) shores. Just look at how fast Russia was at copying Ukraine's tactics of using cheap "suicide" drones against tanks and other armoured vehicles, nothing will stop the same Russians from using cheap drones against a big and expensive US warship approaching Vladivostok, for example.

In my city (Seattle) there's an intersection I walk through 4 or so times a day. More than once a week, I see bicyclists vaguely look around around from a slowed pedal, and then just blithely ride right through the red light.

Over and over. Day after day. For a (no-exaggeration) decade that I've been living and walking in this spot.

I haven't owned a car in a very long time, and every single close encounter with getting hit by something has been with a bicycle at a red light in Seattle (at the above spot, or elsewhere). Over and over and over again: not a one-off that has burned me on bicyclists, but over and over for year after year.

So again I will repeat: as a pedestrian, the "self-entitled idiots" that I see on a weekly/daily basis, for more than a decade, are bicyclists. Seattle drivers seems to understand the idea of pedestrians. Seattle bicyclists seem to view traffic laws as a joke.
Then you’re going to have to ground all the 737-900ERs (in service since 2007) out there as well, since they use the exact same part.

Or maybe, just maybe, this is 1,000x more likely to be a maintenance issue than it is a faulty design.

If there were a genuine, ongoing safety issue worth worrying about pilots would stop flying them. People seem to entirely forget that the crew up in the cockpit are humans with an interest in self-preservation.

Does it really mean that though?

Depending on where you are getting your recordings, what you are hearing isn't necessarily the quality that the pilot and ATC hear.
