for software, I'm very happy with X-Plane, specially if you own a mac. For hardware, you could use an xbox joystic, but I would highly recommend this: https://yawmanflight.com/ - it's perfect for on-the-go and tbh much more convenient than a full yoke + pedals. I sold my yoke and pedals and now just use the yawman.
If you want to learn a bit more, there was a recent, really good Planet Money episode[1] about this exact same topic. They focus on the problems that you might face when using zip code for demographic analysis.
quick question: Your name is Marius and you're hiring for this startup and archiehub? (a few posts up). What's your relationship to both of these companies?
I do not mean this sarcastically or facetiously, but genuinely: would you be ok with a high performing engineer that had another SWE job? I know a couple people potentially interested if so
as others have mentioned, this would be great if it would spit html fragments instead of react components. It would be really useful for quickly building htmx apps.
all (RF) navigational aids in aviation have a more code associated. It's actually required to identify them (by listening to the morse code/looking at the decoded morse code in your panel) to be able to use them for instrument navigation. So that means a big part of all GA flights and pretty much any commercial flight at any point in time in the world are using morse code.
If you know Spanish and want to learn more about a similar topic, The Street Network[0] is a great episode about SNET[1], how it was formed, interview to key players in it and how it crashed. Really good journalism and a great insight into how people tried to stay connected inside Cuba without internet.
from all the react clones I've seen there, this is the one that I'm mostly impressed by: https://yew.rs/ (React clone written in Rust, targeting webasm)
Pre-google internet was way more structured because it had to be (since there were no good organic search engines). Google got in there and had a great algorithm that worked in that world. It got gamed and now content is being produced to make sure you appear on top of searches that might not even be what you were looking for.

I have a feeling many things in the digital space are similar to this and will go the same way, code is a pretty good example. Longer term, I wonder what the generation of massive amounts of code will do to the training data.
I did the SF - Truckee train with my son during the summer. We got a roomette type of accommodation. The food was OK, the trip overall was pretty nice. But for the price, I'm not sure I would do it again. The train was "not clean" (there was a dirty used towel inside the bathroom), the room had some crumbles and overall it was not dirty, but it was clearly not properly cleaned. At least not to the level that I would've expected for the cost.
I might try other route just to give trains a shot again. I like the concept and the space and how comfortable is the ride, but SF - Truckee, I'm not sure I would do it again.
Regular seat on the route is like $50 and you can hang out in the dining and observation cars. I took it to Reno and then took a shuttle to south lake. Was nice!
