I was just thinking more or less along these lines - I haven't been in mobile apps for a few years now, but back then my impression was - SwiftUI is great for "surface level" UI, that has some basic data bindings - think a ba

Yup - most models ignore specific initial instructions once you pass ~50% of usable context window, and revert to their defaults eg generating overtly descriptive yet useless docs / summaries

AMD owns a lot of the consumer market already; handhelds, consoles, desktop rigs and mobile ... they are not a small player.

The pressure difference shouldn’t be significant enough in modern jets? Cabin altitude is around 6000-8000’ - we would hear complaints from a few major cities. Humidity is much lower in aircraft though.

Not just their software, the hardware is beginning to be get pretty unwieldily complicated. From an OS / software perspective: Have a "core" macOS that has none of the apps / integrations are baked in at an OS level. You

I make and sell soap. The soap contains an ingredient that anyone can use to make bombs. Some people buy my soap only for that purpose. I know because they literally tell me how they use my soap. I can remove that ingredient but I would loo

Yes & no, definitely more no for practical reasons. Let me explain; ATC are ultimately expected to know about restrictions and keep traffic away from them. NOTAM's are a notorious pain point for nearly all pilots. Modern EFB's

For some context; - Jaguar competes in the same demographic that Audi, BMW and Mercedes go head to head in - Jaguar merged with Land Rover about a decade ago, and the JLR group as a whole is doing pretty well; mostly aided by the Land Rover

Not at all wanting to be confrontational- genuinely curious; if they’re not on the far right then where are they? The Democrats seem fairly centrist, and it’s the more wayward independents (eg Greens) that seem to be on the Left. My perspec

I don't think the GA market will ever grow that large though - not without substantial effort to make compliance with all the regulations effortless. You need more pilots, so making it easier to navigate and comply with Parts 61/1

Sounds a lot like the Airbus's "normal law" flying! My $0.02 - I'm a CPL ME/IR who gets wet a lot, and is upside down half the time. Background is Automotive and Mechanical Engineering, been in software since 2007

My understanding is that it’s a bit of both. The best analogy for USA equivalent is that imagine Alaska is where we have a bunch of oil / gas, but we need it in New York and Miami. We can’t lay pipes because of terrain / distance,

Something that I didn’t see mentioned clearly - A “licensed” mechanic needs to “certify” or sign off on the paperwork that a given task was done to a given standard following a given procedure. The person certifying the work does not have t

Also my personal opinion / thoughts: If you predominantly work in TypeScript, for the web, there's no better editor. It's faster & "lighter" than any JetBrains product, but has excellent "auto-complete&quot

This is my take as well. CarPlay takes in a bunch of input from various sensors / cameras in a car and gives back “drive” or cruise control commands that are at level 3+. Replaces the existing software for both the infotainment system

I'd argue you need this split - managing people is different skill set to managing a project, which is different to managing the technology, which is different to managing a product. They do overlap, but to me there is a clear line bet

A kindle is excellent to read eBooks, and that's about it. An iPad (or tablet form factor) is excellent for consuming content on the internet, which includes eBooks amongst movies, reels, articles, blogs, news etc. I've got a pape

Honestly - as someone who did their primary and instrument using steam gauges, and now mostly flies a Cirrus Perspective+ system (G1000 with some extra's), you'll get up to speed in less than a few hours of digging through the man

Have you used other tools like linear? The performance difference is striking. Atlassian tools are decent enough, and mostly usable is how I'd describe them. I'd take anything else though, even Rally.

They never go full black though? You can still adjust them (marginally / within some limited bounds of very dark to dark) from what I remember.

It's also part of its hate - it's been wrangled into a hot mess with routing, data fetching, state management and inability to play nice with html elements (specifically forms; controlled vs uncontrolled components). Not to mentio

Not when they are built by Chinese companies, using Chinese sourced labour and supplies, and then the locals are taxed / billed to use them which many can't afford to begin with. Not to mention the governments now owing that loan

For a company that has its own relatively large fleet of aircraft ... $5,000-$30,000 is a few screws and some grease on an airframe. While the some book keepers will care, in its grand scheme of operations that amount is negligible to the p

Protesting itself is meant to be disruptive though - otherwise what's the point? You can stand around in a group in a fenced off corner and make some noise and no one will care. You can annoy people, disrupt a small part of their lives

With 5G speeds and unlimited data* - do you even need WiFi? Not to mention most companies nowadays have clear policies of (not) connecting to free public wifi's or even working in public spaces where your screen may be visible. * Usual
