Compound Engineering

Unfortunately we’ve got one of these people across the street. He is training to be an electrician and starts his modded Toyota apparently with an amplified kazoo welded into the muffler at 4:15am every weekday. Shakes the entire house like a B-17 bomber.

Depends. Taking pictures in front of or around the planes is no problem, but majority are pretty much sealed off. That said, most of the bigger aerospace museums have several planes and helicopters with cockpit and cabin access.

Neil Postman called this the “Peekaboo World”.

“What steps do you plan to take to reduce the conflict in the Middle East? Or the rates of inflation, crime and unemployment? What are your plans for preserving the environment or reducing the risk of nuclear war? What do you plan to do about NATO, OPEC, the CIA, affirmative action, and the monstrous treatment of the Baha’is in Iran? I shall take the liberty of answering for you: You plan to do nothing about them.”

I agree, many of these clichés are just verbal shortcuts to a pretty useful filter:

"This is not important for me to think about or discuss right now."

AI can "play" the drums better and more precisely than me but I still enjoy the act of playing the drums. AI can or will probably drive a Formula 1 car better than Max Verstappen but he will still enjoy being a driver. I don't see why we can't coexist with machine counterparts.
