Take what I think it will take to do in an ideal world and multiply by 3. I usually deliver a tad early because it’s never an ideal world.

Yes! I get insurance quote email that is so blatantly obviously spam that it made me think that there is either a bug in the spam filter or it’s something more insidious. It’s been happening for a while and training Gmail to filter it isn’t

So it sounds like this technique would work for any aircraft with the rear landing gear aft of the center of lift? Or is this the g280 special for some other reason?

Is this is someone who is either looking for an angle to litigate with a rich company or has completely unrealistic expectations or both? I feel like if you had a real conversation with this person and got to the root of how they feel they

As far as OEM notes go ms is probably among the best but it’s not saying a lot. I find that most MS notes rarely explain the how very well if at all. They usually just explain the what. Sometimes that is enough, but usually I want to see ex

I think it’s been well known that an attack on the US electric grid that damaged substations was a big risk as the large transformers have a long lead time and there is only a limited number of spares available. I also don’t expect a 24 yea

Not disagreeing with your take, but I think its important to note that I just don't see it being possible that Art came up with his take without any input from folks in the company. I would imagine there were meetings where these talki

I don't see why you can just find a new job and tell them to sod off. Sure its not always the right answer to leave and try to effect change from within. But if Apple is SOO stacked against the employees I am not sure why anyone wants

To me this is an issue of scale. A small startup can hand pick talented people and pay them the same. Its pretty easy to manage employees and validate performance as you approach ~100 employees. Now scale that up to 50k employees. The talen

I will preface this by saying that I hate sprawl and think we should figure out how to disincentivize it. But why would the size of a city growing magically make people more wealthy? It isn’t magic, a person would need to somehow get a piec
