The plane will run out of fuel during step 1 or while on the way to an airport that has already completed step 1.

> slid under the radar of the public consciousness.

It is shady BS, and it’s why this phrase appeared in the article. Just because industry insiders are aware doesn’t mean it’s not shady.

The same applies to modern cars reporting their information back to manufacturers.


A phone knows if it’s dialing 911. It can activate features on this criteria

Resource allocation without it is not a solved problem

It got downvoted because it had no info about why you claimed there was no improvement.

SpaceX wouldn’t waste money developing a system that had no improvement over what space force already offers.


>from one direction, stopping at a median, and then crossing further over.

This assumes a median, which is not present at most smaller roundabouts in the US.


“Letting quality sift to the top” implies that there is a way for this to happen without curation.

Pure user vote driven things like Reddit are a failure (echo chambers, emotional appeals, bot rings, etc). So I’m curious what you think would let that happen?

Even HN is heavily moderated to maintain topics.


Moderation is not amplification.

What do you call the moderators reposting stories they think would be good on the front page to “give them another chance”?

Not moderation? That's curation.

Wtf is your point? That’s what the moderators do here

Reels skews older in the user-base, which skews the average to the right.

IMO that’s the wrong take about that crash. The stall warning stopped once the attitude was above a certain amount, which was an insane decision on airbus’s part.

You can see in the CVR that the stall indicator stopped many times despite them being in a stall the entire time. The pilot (like every other pilot) knew how to recover from a stall on paper. But he had the plane telling him his airspeed was good (frozen tube) and that bringing the pitch down was causing a stall.


The stall voice alarm sounded 75 times, during this time the stick Shaker also was triggering (if both pilots had let go, or just the one who was ignoring the stall warning, the plane rights itself).

It's in the last column in the transcript I linked.

Imo the whole average input issue would have been it's own Boeing MCAS level issue if it happened a decade later, that's more of the root here imo, since one pilot making a mistake is hardly unheard of.


It doesn’t matter how many times it sounded. It matters that it stopped while still in a stall and began again during the process of recovering the stall.

When you’re panicking and the airplane is telling you what you’re doing is starting to cause a stall again, you tend to listen.


Organic is literally throwing out a ton of modern technology that makes farming scalable and able to sustain the population at its current numbers.

Organic was never about sustainability, so I’m not sure why you think that’s against conventional wisdom. Organic has always been “chemicals bad so we do things the old fashioned way”
