Yeah, 100% anecdotal, but I was mentioning my own experience, not making a broader statement about anything, no?

Your opinion is wrong in my opinion. BARF is very much practised in the US as feeding whole raw unprocessed food. Like, chicken (with feathers, poop, stomach contents and everything that came with the bird), lamb (again everything that came with the lamb), fish (everything that…… you get the idea). And that really keeps the dogs healthy, no teeth problems, no cancer, nothing. I have a 11 year old Tervuren that outruns and outperforms 3-4 year old working Malinois.

Abound CU Visa. And there’s always the Chase freedom family and Discover when the quarterly bonus hits. These days I dump my fuel purchases on Sapphire preferred for UR points that I value at 2c/point.

It is very easy to get ahead of the 10c meagre discount they are providing. You can get a card that pays 5% cashback. Even at 4$/ gallon, you would earn twice your 10c discount. And I keep the credit card protections.

And for other retailers, I would totally not use ACH just for the protections that a credit card provides.

Why is it less harm compared to cigarette? I would assume the cigarette at least has a filter which makes things a little better?

This is highly impractical and it is evident that the author has no idea how IFR navigation and oceanic routes work. When flying on oceanic routes and even on land, you have to intercept certain waypoints and vectored into/around airspaces.

I hate to be discouraging, but maybe the author should make an attempt to understand navigation before cooking up something like this.

That’s a super interesting question. I don’t think I isolate one stream to each ear since I can process them through headphones as well. Also routinely when I am working as a radio officer, I have conversations with live humans in the room while listening and responding to audio over RF through the headphone.

To be honest, I can’t articulate how I do it. I just somehow manage to do it.

They are mono, but I was trying to say that with practice, you can process 2 independent audio streams simultaneously irrespective of whether they are mono or stereo. For example, I am able to keep track of 2 people talking at the same time. I obviously can't respond to both but can maintain independent contexts.

As a pilot and a radio officer, I have always been able to process and service 2 audio streams simultaneously. So not surprised with this finding.

oh okay. I had no idea and was lazy to check the commit logs.

Is this vibe coded? The README at least looks very LLM-ish.

Light weight and electron in the same sentence?

Oh well.

Again, just nitpicking, but if you have the right approach speed, and not doing a super short field landing, you need very little wheel brake if any. ;)

Indeed I was thinking of Vno. I just had a brain fart when I said manoeuvering speed. I meant to say maximum structural cruising speed.
