The form of the action isn’t necessarily what’s stored. They may have memorized something as “fourth action” or some other mnemonic mechanism

You’re just overlaying your mental model. Think of the action as a stored function. Maybe they’ve always recalled the function as part of a certain list. It can be a case where the lists get confused rather than the modality of input (lever

It depends on how that person internalized and learned the behaviour. We store things differently.

This isn’t true. This was a 787. It does not use a separate recorder for voice and data (CVR, FDR). (Most media outlets also got this wrong and were slow to make corrections. ) Rather, it uses a EAFR (Enhanced airborne flight recorder) whic

Nah. I get ads in the app and on other browsers. It happened after I was futzing around with dns settings years ago. There’s some combination of whatever I did that keeps chrome ad free. It has persisted through iOS updates as well.

Media coverage, and thus wikipedia info, on this incident is a bit misleading. A lot of reporting assumes a separate CVR and FDR, but that doesn’t apply here. This is one of the first major incidents involving the 787 where that distinction

I wouldn’t class it as invasive. It’s the difference between glasses and contact lenses: once they’re in, you shouldn’t really realize they’re there. Although there are many different types of contact lenses (and fit types, and comfort) and

Have they thought about triple fermenting? Quadruple?

I got fitted for contact lenses. The “fitting” pair were used to measure and adjust. They didn’t have an actual prescription. However, they gave me super-human magnified vision for anything closer than a foot to my face. It was clearer than

Nicely articulated. I think their comment encapsulates the disbelief people have about public opinions that differ from their own political viewpoints (and the aspects that had been amplified within their own media/algorithmic bubble)
