In my early 40s here, FAANG for 20 years, definitely don't see myself working in tech for much longer.
I dunno which article you were reading, but the linked article says it was a bluetooth device named BOMB. Our training is to treat even vague threats seriously.
> Someone naming their phone "Free Palestine, F Israel" is not a threat. Full stop. The bluetooth device's name was BOMB. We're trained to treat even vague threats seriously. The captain in this case is in a terrible…

Pilot at a major airline here: 1.5 hours of interviews with two people (recruiter and another pilot). Technical and HR-style questions, a personality test, no other homework. Blood test, background check including all…
I love this article. Nobody owes you a new release, or a signed binary, or a feature you care about.
There are retrofit ballistic recovery systems available as a Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) for several existing airframes, e.g. https://brsaerospace.com/cessna/
Yeah I have hundreds of hours or more in Rocket League on Linux, all competitive multiplayer. I use the Heroic launcher: https://heroicgameslauncher.com/
I wish these articles would have a one sentence description of what BPF stands for. It would help passers-by.
Generally, if it's legal to take off, we're going. (Source: am airline captain)
Airline captain here. We definitely involve the dispatcher in the diversion decision. Especially if it's an unplanned diversion, where the big-picture view the dispatcher has is very useful for us in our metal tube.
Can I get it in a Docker container?
Autopilot disengage is heard every single flight and is completely benign... unless neither pilot was expecting it in which case it is very effective at getting our attention.
I was a young teen when the world wide web became a thing, my Dad to gave me a copy of the camel book. I used Perl to write everything... A message board, a stats website for a MUD I was playing on, basically anything I…
I fly the mighty Bombardier CRJ for a certain Utah-based regional airline in the US :)
I love what you've done with your logbook, but the coolest part of the page was the photo of you on the flight deck with your Dad. I'm an airline pilot here in the US and it would be the privilege of a lifetime to be…
I've been working on Webassembly runtimes for the last year or so, specifically on spec compliance and performance. I came to it as a neophyte, but I've become quite fond of the specification. It's a bit hard to get…
It's 900ft AGL and below while descending (CRJ pilot here)
Maybe a not-so-hot take on this... The only option this configuration parameter should take is "never", which should also be the default. Any other value should be interpreted as "never".
> I'm speculating, of course People should stop doing this. Transport category airplanes are designed to suffer multiple failures and still be controllable. Why the airplane landed where it did, when it did, and how…
Are you talking about Asiana 162? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asiana_Airlines_Flight_162 That one touched down short of the runway at a much lower speed and configured for landing.
Lots of airports have obstacles not far from the end of the runway. Burbank, Midway, Orange County are a few that come to mind. Why did they need to land when they did? Why did they need to land so soon after the mayday…
Great. In a world awash with disinformation, we're making it easier to create even more of it. I don't see any good coming from tools like these.
Yawn, it's been a fantastic daily driver for 20 years now.
