Automation emboldens policy makers to reduce human count because of the perceived increase in safety. This results in less eyes and brains monitoring for situations of automation failure or abnormalities. The corner stone of aviation safety

From the FAA’s site [1] on RWSL: > If an Air Traffic Control clearance is in conflict with the Runway Entrance Lights, do not cross over the red lights. Contact Air Traffic Control and advise that you are stopped due to red lights. (ex.:

I’m trying to write a nuanced response but frankly it’s difficult. If they want freedom they should take it. The same way Ukraine is standing up to their bully and the same way countless other revolutionaries stood up. Behind the scenes hel

Does anyone else have issues opening Claude.com domains on iOS? It’s infuriating I can never open documentation or the usage page or account management portal on iOS on Safari. Works fine on a laptop. Mac, Windows, or Linux.

With Siri this is true. I'm not positive on the others.

Flying stats dashboards always amuse me. I get it, for the non-pilot it's kind of like a status thing, "Well I traveled X times in 2025!". As a pilot though, I have gobs of stats I could put up there but from flying for 15 ye

Why is there a paywall AND anti-aging snake oil ads? Pick one. If that's the type of ad you sell it signals to me the site is absolutely not worth the subscription.

I think you’re right. I’ve been seeing more and more DIY hardware setups popping up. There are even wake work models for hardware as low powered as the ESP32. In the middle of moving though so probably have to wait before taking on hardware

When someone is able to put something like this together on their own it leaves me feeling infuriated that we can’t have nice things on consumer hardware. At a minimum Siri, Alexa, and Google Home should at least have a path to plugin a too

It sounds like this attack would work in that scenario provided the attacker is able to connect to the guest access point. I haven’t paid attention to one in a while but I seem to remember the need to authenticate with the guest network usi

clawbase.ai already is "don't be silly, we've got this for you". Not a promotion, just tried a couple of the domains to see if any were available.

I haven't paid a lot of attention to this issue but after reading some of the statements in the article I can't help but agree with Tech Oversight's conclusions. It's just anecdotal but recently, when mindlessly scrollin

This is really cool! Even before OpenClaw gained popularity, I've been exploring ways to create an iOS Shortcut so I could connect my Apple HomePod to a local agent framework. iOS Shortcuts + Apple HomePod just make it so difficult to

Is anyone shocked that the founder of Trilogy Software, Joe Liemandt, would take the lessons learned in creating a "bossware" enterprise software stack (Crossover) and apply them to his latest venture? I think there is enormous op

I think it does matter how much power it takes but, in the context of power to "benefits humanity" ratio. Things that significantly reduce human suffering or improve human life are probably worth exerting energy on. However, if we

I find it difficult to believe software is Airbus’ competitive edge. First, their software for aircrew bidding is an absolute and utter disaster. Date filtering has been broken nearly a year despite multiple releases being pushed. Date mana

GM has kept the HUD thing going for a few decades now. They offer it on a good number of vehicles in their GMC lineup. I have it on my vehicle now and it's absolutely amazing. I find I rarely look inside the vehicle at the 14" inf

I used Claude Code (CC) to make my own MCPs for these apps. I gave it read/write access only, no ability to delete. Of course it could probably code it's way into doing that since it can access the MCP code. I don't run it in

If you’re heavily invested in Apple apps (iMessage/Calendar/Reminders/Notes), you need a Mac to give the agent tools to interact with these apps. I think that combined with the form factor, price, and power consumption, makes

I really want to get into these Lora based mesh tools but the range in my experience is terrible. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, maybe it's a lack of nodes in my area. I just tested the other day. I'm in the midwest US so i

I still think you're going to be in manual threshold tuning for quite a while. The cost of feeding a continuous log to an LLM would be insane. Even if you batched until you filled a context window.

I’ve been working on adapting Claude Code to do some repetitive “personal assistant” type tasks so I was really excited to try this tool. One of my tasks is a skill that fetches my calendar via MCP and slots events into a JSON to be used fo

Wow, so it must have been spending a ton of reasoning tokens then writing code to go fetch the weather. Or maybe using a browser? Hopefully one day we get self-hostable LLMs good enough for this.
