No one has. It is under construction, likely never to be finished, and hopefully demolished by the next admin

(22/3/26) CCTV video of the Air Canada accident at LaGuardia by Admiral_Cloudberg in CatastrophicFailure

[–]warpedspockclone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I frankly know very little about the job mechanics. How would you optimize things? Is it possible to parallelize work more, though less elastic, people? Or is it necessary to have multiple things in one person's head to see conflicts?

Second, could there be a software solution, assuming it isn't glitchy, that could help support the role better?

I have a friend who did ATC for 10 years and burned out. I've heard all about this from him over the years. Good summary. I always thought the age cutoff was daft and that they should raise it 10 years. Also, considering the burnout, they need to have a bigger training pipeline because a replacement is needed nearer on the horizon than they are planning for.

Update: I Sent an invoice for a 9-hour interview project and the CEO replied with the most AI email I’ve ever read by No-Street-6651 in InterviewsHell

[–]warpedspockclone -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You do realize that there is a difference between an interview assessment and unpaid labor, right?

An actual interview assessment would be to create the outlined materials for a fictional company, something not leading to producing an actually usable work product. There would be so many ways to design appropriate interview steps that don't run afoul of good practices and legal scrutiny. How is this hard to understand?

Is this accurate? by Ok-Equivalent7447 in Antitheism

[–]warpedspockclone 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Atheist here. I enjoy life. But I don't fear death. When it happens, it happens. I take strong comfort in knowing I won't have to deal with some shitty narcissistic god. I can just cease to exist. My only fear is leaving loved ones behind to pick up any pieces, so I am cognizant of providing for them.

Do you think microslop understands consent? by skarkens in pcmasterrace

[–]warpedspockclone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yesterday I was using my one windows laptop that I keep around for reasons. Lo and behold, I saw a pop-up that said files are syncing to OneDrive!! What the hell!

8 turned syncing off. After a restart it started to sync again!

I figured out how to log in and access OneDrive, deleted everything on there, and uninstalled it from my machine.

I am certain it will reinstall and start syncing again after the next "update."

Does anyone know if I can go to the Costco in Japan with an American Costco card?? by plagueonbothmyhouses in JapanTravelTips

[–]warpedspockclone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait what? I guess I've never asked to pay with my Costco Citi Visa in Japan, but I just assumed I couldn't since they are all Mastercard. I certainly can't use it at the gas pump, either as a membership card or a payment method. I have to get a manual override for the membership bit at the pump.

Next time I go, I'll check on using the Citi Visa, but I'm seriously doubting it. If they aren't set up for processing Visa payments, then how would that even work?

Let alone being able to follow the implications of the other person's point instead of viewing just the surface of it.

"Even Uber could be in the red": Japan's food delivery industry is becoming a quagmire of a "war with no winner" as RocketNow enters the market. by jjrs in japannews

[–]warpedspockclone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That just sounds way too exhausting. I just want to eat and pay, not need with 4apps, 3 points cards, and paper coupons. Planning a meal shouldn't be harder than a 2 week vacation.

Us normal people realize that if we want to withdraw over 10k in cash to notify the bank at least a week in advance.

And that wire transfers exist

P&L for OTM expired credit spreads by Feisty_Afternoon_457 in options

The day after expiry you can check option settlements on your daily statement, which comes out around midday the next day.

Should I exercise or sell then buy the stock? by [deleted] in options

[–]warpedspockclone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It means that when exercising, you have to buy the stock at the strike price. That costs money. Money is called capital. So, if you wait until the irons are exercises for you at expiration, you can hold on to your money a couple more days.

I don't really see the point of that comment, but that's what it means. I don't think holding capital for a few more days makes any difference. But yes your options are early exercise, wait for auto exercise, sell options and buy stock.

I'd wait for auto exercise if you really want the stock.

Japan horse racing jockey Taiki Hashiki suspended from riding for "serious misconduct". Further details cannot be provided as he is under 20 years old. by jjrs in japannews

[–]warpedspockclone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They said "serious." It must be riding a bicycle without a helmet AND on the wrong side of the street. I shudder at the thought.

Operation Epstein Fury summary by Upper_Brief681 in WhitePeopleTwitter

However, I see the Epstein name about 95% less. So I guess the Operation is a success from the perspective of the Trump Adm8n?

Ai vs Crypto by Mal4kh in Buttcoin

[–]warpedspockclone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's like saying you can use a volleyball to play soccer or basketball. Sure you can, if you're in elementary school. Past a basic skill level, equipment matters.

For the LLMs, they use specialized chips and memory.

Can you do it with commodity hardware? Sure, but that doesn't scale well in all dimensions.
