It risks career. 2 ejections and you won’t fly for the military any more.

Mh. Apparently like this if we ask AI:

At work we've tried AI summaries for meetings, but we spent so much time fixing those summaries that we started writing our own again.

Is there some training you applied or something specific to your use case that makes it work for you?

I think it's less that they sat on their laurels and more that a team of 2 had trouble keeping up with the dozens of well-paid folks working on VSCode. Which suggests that perhaps a shareware model did not work out so well for them.

I will forever mourn the general demise of server browsers. Too many games require you to use matchmaking systems, which means it's very hard to build up a small community in-game anymore. You either have to rely on forming small parties with people you've stumbled upon one by one, or you have to seek out people from some much larger area like Reddit or Discord. It takes a lot of the serendipity out of the experience. Without a small community it becomes much harder to ensure you're not playing with people who make the game less fun by whatever metric you care about.

I used to be an admin on a group of about 18 or so connected Counter-Strike 1.6 servers called T3Houston*. We ran modified versions of various Warcraft 3 mods which added persistent XP/leveling, as well as integration with an external item store and player database the owner maintained. Most of those servers were filled to the brim during peak US gaming times, and our forum was quite active.

There aren't many games these days where you could do something like that. I discovered the community because one day I was just looking for a server with open slots for me to join. I was fairly skeptical of whatever a Warcraft mod would be like, but ended up enjoying it so I added it to my favorites. Eventually I got to know the regulars and joined the forum. Notably, the place felt far less toxic than the average server I'd join back then. I can completely believe this is just me looking at the past through rose tinted glasses, but it feels like the general toxicity has gotten worse at the same time as we've lost a lot of tools to manage it.

> Bullshit. Most people can afford grabbing a beer in a supermarket and going to the park. They just choose not to.

In the UK, most councils have made parks alcohol-free zones. Also, the parks are only nice about 3 months a year. The rest of the time it's damp and miserable.

So, who are you going to go drinking with at the park?

And in reverse, you’re visiting the park and see someone there drinking. What’s your impression?

Do you actually do anything with the data you collect?

As someone who manages commercial building automation system installations, I have never understood the obsession that HN has with residential IAQ sensors. The number will go up if you cook, burn a candle, use a hairdryer, or if there’s wildfire smoke outside and you have a ducted HVAC installation with an outdoor air intake.

In a commercial BAS, IAQ sensors (CO/NO to be more specific) are used to turn on exhaust and make-up air fans to increase the air quality in a space, but in every single thread about IAQ monitoring on HN, nobody ever seems to use the sensor readings to automate their HVAC equipment to do anything. In fact, almost all commercial BAS systems have zero IAQ sensors (especially in offices), the vast majority of them are use for turning on exhaust fans and make-up air units in buildings where cars are driving inside, like a parking ramp or drive-in warehouse.

I guess my question is, why collect this information and do nothing with it? Maybe you actually do something with it, or you monitor local outdoor air quality as a hobby. I’m asking a more general audience than you specifically.

Lastly, ensuring your house is positively pressurized by paying a testing and balancing contractor to come over and adjust your HVAC system will do more to keep out particulate matter than measuring it ever will.
