Where does this go onboard? Is the thought that this could be the last loaded container, or would these be mounted directly onboard somewhere?
Seems like measuring wind at the device instead of at the helm would be better.
Interested in where this goes, congrats on the launch.
Just read The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand. There's a beautiful metanarrative in there about first the "thought leaders" and then eventually the artists, and then eventually the media declining as they grovel and collectively are unwilling to check each other basically in the name of political correctness(I won't spoil it beyond that, great book).
"A society gets the military it deserves" -TR Fehrenbach, This Kind of War. The same is true of the media. I agree with what you said on the Economist. Probably 4-6 years ago, I saw the same thing happen with the Atlantic. Very sad. I use HN because it pulls from so many sources. Ill still enjoy stuff from the Econ here and there. 2 pieces of advice: Diversify your sources, and second, develop a system of personal morality. Too few people in our society have one of those... which means too few people who are philosophers have one, and therefore too few artists, and too few journalists. And eventually, people like you and me can recognize that not only is the bar low.... someone stole the bar and is chasing the contestants around with it beating them at random. Cheers.
Unfortunately I felt like this written TO someone who has owned a PinePhone for 2+ years and studies it's niche jargon. Is the author the author's target reader?
A much different response than many below here, and also, more solidarity than actual advice.
I too feel this way. I've found it gives me high relatability to coworkers and great problem solving skills. (I may not have as much grey matter as a local expert on something, but I make up for it in white matter thinking). While I haven't been able to spin the web together yet, my goal is to use this in people management (3 weeks into new job, wish me luck). Enough knowledge to respect and empathize with the experts makes people trust and include, and eventually respect you. Single track experts are constantly getting jaded in my profession (engineering) because they can't champion their own ideas. Humans will intrinsically fight and even die for their ideals, as long as they can see that their environment will not remain status quo. I'm not sure your background or profession, but this might be a perspective for you where the only necessary "training" or "learning" is strong empathy skills.
Best to you,
