This. I (41) joined a gym last year. Did wonders for my physical and mental health. As you get older you need more and more protein to build muscles. I need to get 150 grams of protein per day. That is difficult. And you need more recovery

The 737 example is actually quite fitting. Sure, a long time pilot will perceive the interface as invisible. But if you contrast it with the complexity of the same functions on other aircraft, you start to see how complicated it really is.

There is a Bambu p1s on its way to me. I will exclusively print ASA and my impression was that the p1s has a good track record with ASA. My prints will be mounted in glider cockpits and require the UV resistance. Money is a bit tight, so I

Since we can't really formally prove most code, I think property based testing such as with hypothesis[1] would make sense. I have not used it yet, but am about to for stuff that really needs to work. [1] https://news.ycombi

Not saying you're wrong, but I wonder what is the differentiating factor for software? We can build huge things like airliners, massive bridges and buildings without starting small. Incremental makes less sense to me when you want to g

Gliders utilize Laminar profiles, while airliners use turbulent profiles. The Laminar profiles perform better, but only when uncontaminated (no bugs or rain). Contaminated turbulent profiles perform better than contaminated Laminar profiles

Weight affects speed with minimum sink. That affects the diameter of the circle you fly. Since thermals have more lift towards the center (assuming perfectly circular thermals), you are not able to circle in the strongest lift. So you climb

The same angle, but at different speeds. The speed is multiplied by the square root of the weight ratio (new/reference). The minimum speed, at which the critical aoa is reached, increases. And therefore the take off and landing speeds.

Glide ratio and weight are not related. Weight shifts the glide Polar to higher speeds and theoretically improves it slightly due to Reynolds effects.

Alan Kay has once said that you get simplicity by choosing a slightly more complicated building block. It appears to me that erlang does this.

I think the difference lies in how you move from iteration to iteration. As long as you have a goal for each iteration - to fix what you learnt the last time, or to change something to get a new data point on it - that sounds like allowing
