I think altium has taken over as the top tier commercial offering in this space. I always disliked Orcad. Especially because cadence had excellent software that predated OrCAD, and for reasons that I cannot fathom chose to promote OrCAD aft

There are tons of free sim tools. 'Spice' (Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis) was a very early commercial sim. So many of the free ones use some variant of spice in their name. LTSpice, Qspice, etc. Kicad is an e

The existing electric planes are designed to be trainers. They are primarily for takeoff and landing and flying in the pattern at an airport. Less than 1-hour endurance, and useful load that can barely accommodate two people.

I grew up believing many of the myths that this article addresses. So I'm hesitant to believe it entirely without verifying additional sources. In particular, this quote seems misleading: > the U.S. Forest Service reports that kudzu

Kudzu does grow up and over live trees and kills them. It will also grow over abandoned buildings, or nearly anything really.

Have you engaged with the FAA yet? Even if you're going the experimental route, it's useful to have an active and ongoing dialog with them. And they are tremendously more receptive to working with companies on new technologies tha

It's also worth noting that if you own above a certain percentage of a company's stock, it's legally required to make your trades public. Also interesting -- look at the trade volume during the big moves, like 3-June. There&#

I guess I'll be pedantic for a moment. A coup, by definition, is a seizure of power from government. If they are not successful at seizing power, then it was not a coup.

There is a long list of entirely preventable human-caused accidents. Is there a reason pilot-caused crashes are less scary for you? Computer caused accidents will be fixed and won't happen again. Human-caused accidents will keep happen

If you ever take commercial flights you are already being flown by autopilot, and have been for decades. It might give you comfort that there is a human pilot in the cockpit for backup, but it's only a matter of time before the human b

I couldn't help but wonder if Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) was chosen intentionally as a fake source. WHOI can be pronounced "hooey", which is slang for a fake assertion.

If compliance were the goal, then I would be inclined to agree with you. However, this lawyer is suing first without any notification first that the shop is non-compliant. That's what makes it come across as predatory.

In some different articles I read, the change from 0.6 to 2.5 came after flight testing of the aircraft when it became apparent that the MCAS system needed greater authority to function properly. That part of it was totally normal. The majo
