This is a pretty awful reason to not even try. From the outside seems like working at any of those listed would be awesome if not just compensation but ability to grow. I tend to err on the side of "I suck" when an interview does

They actually don't help much, and arguably make things worse, because pilots that have them do things they would otherwise shy away from, like fly over mountains in marginal weather. Cirrus has only had one or maybe a couple more leg

You don't really need to control it. There are open source and off the shelf autopilots everywhere at this point. https://store.3drobotics.com/t/parts/autopilots http://ardupilot.com/

I'm not sure what you originally said, but think it was a comment I meant to respond to. It's myopic to say something is too dangerous or doesn't produce anything and shouldn't be done. Being free to explore the limits

A nuclear engineer friend started BASE jumping and skydiving at 57 after seeing a segment on TV. Never too late to start.

Dunning Kruger effect. Stick your hand out a car window and not the force at say 70 mph. Now imagine it twice as fast. If your hand is not symmetrical you spin. I can do turns in the air with just my hands. A misplaced arm or leg is goin

There are a lot of scripts the do something like: curl ' http://myradframework.com/script.sh' | bash That'd be pretty easy to do this if they weren't honest or man in the middle attack the site.

That is kind of the entire point of the article. This quote summarizes the argument which you paraphrased after pointing out "You have no idea what you are thinking". The argument to spell it out in a clearer way than the author

Also a skydiver, and looks like you jump at Elsinore judging from the pictures in your app. My wife and I are there occasionally. I hope the sampling of data is fast enough to use in skydiving. Maybe an integrated log book/flysight.

He was a legend when I was going to NC State. Rumors By 2000 were that he had a Ferrari and multiple homes. He was around the social group I was in but never got a chance to meet him. Good for him to move on.

You certainly aren't BASE jumping with military parachutes. At least not more than once.

It looks like it's smaller form factor and less entanglement hazard for parachuting sports. The Gopro has killed at least 3 people due to entanglement. I know that's a super fringe use, but I like the idea of something smaller wi

For grepping you can use tmux's search back/up. It's ctrl-o ? I don't know how people live without it. There is probably a way to dump the stdout history, but a quick google on mobile didn't find it.

Most of the above will make you full so those 800 calories would last a lot longer than eating 800 calories of potato chips. Seems like a nod to the calorie is not a calorie line of reasoning, which seems pretty prevalent on Hackernews.

I did the same thing. It was basically break even for weekend trips and more profitable to have the car for week long trips. If you like the woods and places off the beaten path car shares aren't going to work.
