Typically, in places like NTSB reports (or GA - private aviation - accidents in general), it often is human preventable. But the thing is different people have very different tolerance limits. Pilot A might skip flying if the weather lo

If I had the 600-odd dollars, I'd absolutely buy this. It's a damn shame it's so expensive.

Yeah, similar. The place I was in in the Netherlands was a converted office building (originally made iirc in the 1960s or 70s) but refurbished to apartments post the turn of the century. In the many years I lived there... the place was pre

Nice job OP, and thanks for the demo video! PS to others, keep your volume below 40%. ...I may or may not have jumpscared myself by cranking the volume up before the alarm time as it was so quiet.

To be brutally honest it sounds like LLM speak to me. The account being in green doesn't help. The line between an LLM being told to sound like an HN user, and an actual user who's adopted LLM lingo is... vanishingly thin at times

I love the concept and upvoted but I really wish there was a [USA] tag. I'm on the other side of the world and I clicked, wondering if there are any airfields near where I live. I am still wondering. (Side note to those who might know:

Do note that I'm not condoning lowering the bar. I'm merely pointing out that the bar was already quite low, and the current position of the bar is a small incremental change to anyone who actually knew where the bar truly lay t

I assure you that you did not need an LLM to engage in, ahem , risky shenanigans, much before all this AI was ever a thing. Sincerely, a former engineering student. (Put another way - extracting for eg meth - or any such "dangerous&qu

If you're self aware of this, you're probably already ahead of 95% of others in similar shoes.

Did it really? Here in my <large 3rd world country> at least, afaik no one's stopped pirating. The tools to activate may have changed but haven't gone away.

You wouldn't download an LLM for free, would you?

Not sure if it directly helps here, but multi gaage railway cars are a thing. Iirc on some European lines, the trains switch their gauge.

Tbh I think the microsoft neo (or was it the duo?) was the "best" - have 2 (or more) screens but put them on a hinge. You can get one big screen with whatever panel quality you like (hell, make it a cheap or transflective if you w

On the topic of older (Claude) models being better... anyone knows anything close to 3.5 (or 3.6) era Sonnet? It was by far the best LLM I had ever asked my doubts too. It actually explained in a human way, not like some AI I need to re

And to whoever downvoted me, I've successfully "diagnosed" (read - identified) multiple friends already. NDs often have decent ND-radars.

So... going by the story, I guess you never did go to the doctor to get diagnosed for adhd? (Yeah, armchair doctor and all that. But doesn't make it wrong or at least worth a look.)

This is more like "just increase friction". For some people it's more than enough, for others it's barely anything. Personally speaking, I've found that just the act of removing the reddit app from my home screen ma

I think there's a lot of proprietary stuff, from Google Play Services to Pixel specific features. A very significant stack of "modern" software layers are proprietary, even on Android.

IMO this deserves a black banner/bar. I genuinely had no idea a single guy was behind MATLAB (or that it was so old). His contribution has been significant, to say the least.
