I do this, then after the 5 years I feel like I need to start over from the beginning so I know the story. Then I stop just before the end again.

I’m a 737 pilot. Reverse thrust is never calculated into landing distance. You use brakes and spoilers, reversers are a bonus. Airplanes are perfectly capable of landing with no thrust, in fact normally in an engine failure you don’t use the working reverser because of the potential of a loss of control from asymmetric reverse thrust.

Assuming worst case scenario, they lost hydraulic systems A and B due to an uncontained engine failure. In that case the landing gear can be lowered with a gravity release and the flaps can be lowered with an electric alternate motor. The right engine clearly is still working on touchdown, you can see the cowl shroud open as the reversers deploy in the video. The problem is that they touched down just short of the end of the runway, probably around 180 knots, with a totally clean plane. I don’t know how they got into that position, but it wasn’t only a bird strike.

I don’t know what happened here, but man does that official speculation make no sense at all. At least I can’t think of any realistic scenario in which a bird strike causes that.

I have a dell power edge 730, which was about $200. It’s CPU shrouds perfectly match the GPU intakes so air just flows through both from the server fans. I’ve seen a few 3d printable fan mounts for jury rigging them into a regular tower too.

I picked up a pair of old Tesla P40s. Right now I’m running a Q4 quant of Qwen 2.5 72B that fits in the combined 48GB of VRAM with 12k context. They aren’t as fast as newer consumer cards, but it generates as fast as I can read while costing less than a used 3080.

I just use an IP address, they always resolve http and I can type 1.1.1.1 faster.

That person is responsible for handling the weight and balance for passengers, bags, fuel, and cargo, acting as the interface for the above and below the wing personnel, managing access to the jet bridge and aircraft, securing the aircraft on the ground, and scanning in passengers. Policing boarding order is a very very small part of the job. Even if they find a way to automate the boarding process, you still need an operations agent. Airline management can be questionable but they aren’t that bad.

More likely would be trying to get rid of the CSRs, something some airlines have done. That causes its own problems though.

Not sure who’s job it would replace. Right now policing boarding order is done by one person who is responsible for a bunch of other things that are critical for the flight. Even if they want to trim staff, and they do, that isn’t a place they can do it.

The cracks, they don’t remove our protection. The cracks still have all our code in and all our code is executed. There is even more code on top of the cracked code - that is executing on top of our code, and causing even more stuff to be executed. So there is technically no way that the cracked version is faster than the uncracked version

That’s some bigly code there.

I like the catppuccin cursors (along with the rest of catppuccin) https://github.com/catppuccin/cursors

If only voting early would get me off the political spam list.

I live in a major city. The nearest Kroger is 2 blocks away. The nearest non-kroger is 7 miles away. And I have to drive past 3 Kroger’s to get there. It’s ridiculous.

Bought a kobo recently. Bought it direct from Kobo, Walmart wasn’t involved at all in any step. Worked perfectly out of the box with Caliber too. Nice little device, library interface could use some work but it’s functional.

Well when the LLM craze collapses in the nearish future we’ll have a bunch more nuclear power in the 2030’s. So that’s good I guess?

What you are looking for is a RAG and is one of the few legitimately useful implementations of LLMs outside the wall of hype.

Looks like a landing gear fire. Before it gets asked, no that’s not a Boeing 737. Frontier’s fleet consists entirely of Airbus A32x aircraft.
