For an instrument/commercial pilot to lose SA at night on an instrument plan is hard to believe

If one relies on comments from AVH, Qatar might not have the best practices out there. Inappropriate culture could turn to bad results. Plus there is no information for First Officer's flight experience. He could be a less experienced one.

NanoPI M4 burned two SD cards and destroyed its own eMMC module due to some weird behavior while I was using it for NAS.

No idea what caused it, I suspect excessive writes and wearing the flash storage or corrupting the bootloader and not being able to recognize the boot media. The "wear" I mentioned could be something else of course, but except the normal OS writes, everything went to the SATA drives.

It sounded like a solid piece of hardware with the 4 SATA-ports-hat and good CPU, but at the end it turned out to be un-reliable as at some point the OS hang, couldn't boot from the OS storage and the bootloader wasn't seeing the partitions via UART debug session.

Sort of did that for a brand new X1 Carbon: 1.created a usb bootable image from MS's tool to install new windows

2.installed from scratch

3.the windows setup only put essential Lenovo stuff - hotkeys and thermal management.

4. ???

5. Profit [1]

It made a real difference to disable the automatic windows updates and run them manually. There were no bloatware installed on my unit.

[1] A joke from the memes, its all good otherwise.

iPhone X 9 years ago

It does, but at the moment the post was put online, there is nothing official, except the name. Hence "this is iphone X" looks like a placeholder for a future event.

"Please refresh for updates"

Besides there is a new thread ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15229902 ) for the same subject - nothing offcially started, yet several threads for it.

Anyway, it will be fun to see if this one will hit 1000+ comments :)

iPhone X 9 years ago

Developing… Please refresh for updates.

Obviously the "hype" for a new iphone is still up & running since there is a thread for not yet officially announced device...

Also, designing a FPGA board is 'half' of the job, putting a verilog or VHDL code is a totally different thing.

The DDR3 routing, the BGA chip, everything on this board 'screams' very hard work, probably not by a single person ( i have to admin I checked the FPGA/board part only )

Good !

Finally this is taken to a level where Spotify might actually notice something !

There were/are threads on their forum and basically nothing happens as they seems to not care for the users.

Pardon my ignorance, but I cannot help myself understanding why WikiLeaks are pushing so much crap towards Clinton and not doing the same to Trump ?

Are they in-directly supporting Trump ?

I am far from USA and although who will be the next president most likely will affect everyone, I do not care that much for either one of them.

It is just strange for the russians to push so much for Trump and WikiLeaks are somehow assisting them.

Ah, the VC4...I had the impression the toolchain for that will be a nightmare to setup outside of the "close guarded internal tools"( which were "fun" to use).

Besides except the video stuff I do not see a point of running (lets say a Linux) on the VC4.

But still fun moment to see all this being done, congrats :)

What if Amazon are building delivery AI not only for drones, but something else (cars?) Yeah, they say drones, but it's way too expensive project (people involved, locations, offices, etc ) to be for single purpose. Maybe they're just building something bigger.
