I think a sensible approach would be to allow these larger/automated drones only in class C, or extend the adsb mandate to ultralights. Alternatively, maybe it's time to push them to have a lighter, non certified version of ADSB f

Hard disagree… react is probably one of the best examples of this. React 15/16/17/18 over this period of time is a nightmare to maintain for people who don’t keep up with react if they want to casually jump in or out of. If

I might be going against the grain here, but the JS ecosystem is just a series of goalposts that are constantly moving and it has burned so many people over the years that folks just don’t want to deal with it. I’m fine learning JS, but wit

I will go against the trend and disagree. IMHO anyone writing software in C or C++, ASM is an extremely valuable skill. Its really hard to debug code if you don't understand what the compiler is outputting. If you ever do software vuln

US companies don’t operate as an extension of the US or the intelligence community like they do inside China. Sure, sometimes US companies will sell commercial data, but it isn’t something that they are forced into, like in other countries.
