I am using clojure for my side projects & hustles. If the project is quick and dirty who cares how its implemented. If project evolves to more serious product, I should re-write anyway and optimize the critical code paths.
Jim is there when you are a baby and picking your nose. Jim is reflected in the face of your mother when you wanted to eat the big fat booger and her warm and smiling face turned into an angry and disgusted grimace. There is Jim. Jim turns from an observed behavior as baby to an internalized behavior as adult. If you want to change your behavior there is Jim.
Jim is at the edge of your comfort zone. Jim is at the edge to the unknown. If you venture into new behaviors you will suck at it and Jim will tell you to go back. Jim says its comfortable where you came from.
Watch 1977-1983 Star Wars (which is full of eternal wisdom). Luke fought his Jim before he could fight Darth Vader. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qiDuHCKSc8
The same as Luke fought his Jim, we all have to fight our Jims. And as Luke kills dark-side Darth Vader, light-side Anakin Skywalker is reborn. I told you. Star Wars is full of eternal wisdom. The same will happen to you. As you fight, your dark-side you will uncover your Jims light-side. Because Jim is the mirror image of you.
It is your damn RESPONSIBILITY to create the best Jim there is. It is your damn JOB to fight Jim everyday. It is your RESPONSIBILITY and JOB to uncover his light-side one tiny bit each day. Jedi, its our job to save the galaxy from the dark-side. Its worth to die for!
Technology wise we could have fly by wire fully automated planes, vtol, and helicopters easily (at least in limited areas first). The problem is not tech it's regulation, insurance, backwards compatibility and scale.
Sadly scale is the killer. You would need a Toyota for airplanes but your market to sell is tiny. You just cannot spread your dev costs over huge volumes of planes. I have seen aero dynamic designs which are comparable to fuel efficient cars but travel at 200mph. But it's very expensive and risky to build a company around it.
What you might be able to break into is Garmins market but hard! Maybe new markets like electric planes or vtol.
I hope I am wrong and you are right. I wish you guys succeed bc GA aviation is stuck in 1970s.
