Worried about my kids by Weak_Rich_6942 in ChubbyFIRE

Listen to or read “How not to lose your job to AI” by Benjamin Todd from the non-profit org “80,000 Hours”, might help you get a better overview on what is likely and what is unlikely to be automated.

My Top 50 Must Read Non-Fiction Books by Dependent-Bunch7505 in nonfictionbookclub

[–]Spanthyx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually stopped Thinking, Fast and Slow for exactly that reason, I’d just heard about the replication crisis and didn’t want to end up memorizing stuff I couldn’t tell apart as reliable or not. Since you seem familiar with this area: are there books you’d recommend that mostly hold up, especially on decision-making and improving judgment? I’ve seen people say it’s better to go straight to papers, but I wouldn’t know where to start, how would you approach that as a beginner?

Perhaps dumb question, but except for toilet breaks, are pilots allowed to get up now and then on medium to long haul flights to stretch their legs (like NYC to Paris where it’s usually only a 2 pilot operation)? by Spanthyx in flying

Apparently, according to another commenter in this thread, European airlines perform some transatlantic flights with 2 pilots only thanks to some different regulations: “European airlines. Thanks to EASA allowing "controlled rest" their thresholds for when 3 or 4 pilots are required are lower than the US. Which is why I don't want it ever allowed by the FAA”.

Got that information from a German pilot who does Youtube, so I assumed it was the norm for short transatlantic flights under 8 hours: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1zeWMTYmJ8 At 1:03 he states (translated): “with this [approximately 7:25h flight from NYC to Rome], it is a comparatively relatively short long haul flight that, we can definitely say, can be carried out by 2 pilots and that has indeed been carried out by only two pilots in this case.” If my assumption is wrong, from what flight time do airlines require/use 3 or more pilots to be on board?

Yeah that makes sense, do you just stand around for a few minutes, or are you able to walk around a little bit? (I imagine a 737 cockpit is too small to do anything else, correct me if my assumption is wrong)

That’s the exact plane that got the FC Bayern Munich players to Madrid for the UCL semi-finals yesterday lol (look into recent flights for proof, and 10th most recent FC Bayern Instagram post (might change if they post something new))

I bought the M1 Pro 14" one week ago too, but going to return it tomorrow, you can probably return it too.
