I did for a short time. My feelings on it are mixed. Objectively, you can absolutely stay fit and build muscle with resistance bands alone. That being said, it has problems. To do heavy excersizes often requires very thick bands with a lot

This is objectively false though. We could take a deep dive into the relevance of the Serbian shoot down but it’s kind of irrelevant. The fact of the matter is, stealth technology means that an aircraft needs to be significantly closer to a

The existence of the b2 was always acknowledged from early in its development, just like the b21 was. The primary purpose for strategic bombers like the b21 and the b2 is deterrence, and deterrence doesn’t really work if it isn’t known abou

I’m not trying to call you guys out. Just curious for more information. I would say I have enough knowledge about signal processing to be dangerous, as it’s quite adjacent to my job. But this isn’t clicking with me. Assuming we’re not inclu

The fact that the b21 is being built at plant 42 in Palmdale has been public info for literal years.

Conversely though, how many people are killed in the world every single day simply because of human error? When (in the US) a 16 year old gets their license, we don't ask them to provide a formal proof of their driving technique that s

It seems like a lot of headaches could be avoided if you just don’t have people share branches. Then you just rebase master and force push away with reckless abandon,

I'm confused by the mixing of abstractions going on here. Technically it's not possible to do anything in any programming language without assembly. But barring that, it is absolutely possible to write bare-metal device driver

This theoretical double standard doesn't exist. In you follow aviation news circles closely, you'll see every couple months these days a photo go viral that someone has captured of actively classified aircraft operating in open ar

Not exactly though, turing complete means the language can compute anything, not do anything. In the vast majority of popular programming languages, it is generally not possible to write bare-metal device drivers, for instance.

50k per week is kind of a lot. I’m assuming you were training for something specific and were therefore on top of it, but that amount of work could definitely negatively effect your cognitive ability if you weren’t getting enough calories&#

I answered more in depth about why I left above, but basically the work environment felt a little too academic and a little too static for my liking Aerospace is my passion, so I’m still in that world. But just somewhere in private industry

This is all my personal experience working there for two years as an extremely junior engineer more than five years ago, so take with a grain of salt. JPL’s culture is very academic in nature. I mean JPL is literally an arm of Caltech that

Nothing particularly interesting. I was very junior during my time there, working modeling and simulation tools for spacecraft that had already been up for over a decade. I did get to be present and watch the telemetry stream cut out as Cas

This is kind of a weird take. I used to work at JPL but I didn't stay due to it not being the right cultural fit for me. With that said, my perspective as a former NASA insider is that JPL is known for the exact opposite, underperformi

I don't think this post indicates that he's religious. If you read some of his other stuff, he's clearly a person with philosophical interests. There are lots of people who read the Bible out of a philosophical/mythologi

I have a little experience from a while back. I’d be curious to know what your management’s stated goal is for it. Simple diagraming, requirements tracing, documentation generation, code generation, all of the above? My experience is that

If you’re just jumping in, you can’t beat starting with lunarvim or astrovim and then customizing further from there if you need to. Neovim is fantastic, and the best way to edit code IMO, but getting it set up to a point where it has the f

To be fair, there’s a pretty massive difference in scope between a 50 mil Afrl tech demonstration program and what this would be. If/when this materializes, it’s likely to be a capital A Airforce program worth at least a billion dolla

Coke Zero has caffeine in it, and a flavor some find pleasing. While I can mostly get on board with the idea that it’s better to consume less processed foods and beverages, if I remember correctly there’s never been a human study that showe
