Swami Vivekananda’s captivating address offered a glimpse of the civilisational ethos of India.

His inspiring words still reverberate across the world.

@wolfejosh + Musk is running world's biggest antisemitic hate machine on complete autopilot & even gave it rocket fuel. Even for the most dangerous tropes text and visual don't get notes from community or AI. This is the most dangerous IPO. Bot control and free speech are just talk. > wiki.

Espionage? Hundreds of Thousands in Secret Telegram Chats Smuggling & Spying on America? 🇨🇳🕵️‍♂️ Our team at @thegoatinitiative has collected approximately 50 abandoned phones at the border and infiltrated massive Chinese Telegram groups. What we uncovered goes beyond migration: think espionage, coordination, and real national security risks.

@ibelings Pieter, are the relays for RF switching!? What about contact resistance ? Are these Palladium sputtered?

Evidence of why early engineers of a company will eventually be great executives than external “professional management” hires. Allegro made great sensors for automotive also some used in aero.

China's large dam on Tibet's Drichu River will submerge several historical monasteries and displace many Tibetans. Yet, in response to peaceful protests, China arrested hundreds. Now, two Tibetan monastic leaders have been sentenced to 3-4 years in prison. https://t.co/Ifpat4NDr6

Rajeev’s tribe at Google. All of Google’s deep minds came out to celebrate Dr Prabhakar Raghavan’s contributions at Google. This included Sundar Pichai.

I am thrilled that both professors Don Knuth and Christos Papadimitrou made it! It felt like the old days having Dr. Arvind Raghunathan here from New York and Madhusudan of Harvard University.

It was a special treat catching up with professors Sandy, Irani, Anna Carlin, and Edith Cohen. The contributions of these incredible computer scientists to search, and to the foundational models of AI are mind-boggling.

Thus far this is the only plausible explanation on AI171, slats & flaps mechanically linked & FADECs are by definition “full authority” and have no manual override. Suspecting the Boeing SW is a good start. Visibly & by witnesses there wasn’t enough thrust.

[Dale Winsley @Winsleydale]

No.

The LE slats are deployed therefore the flaps are as well. This is an automatic linkage. The flaps are set at Take-Off. Hard to see from the angle but they are...if slats are out (easy to see) then flaps are set. Looks like Flaps 5.

Also, the 787 has the highest Thrust-to-Weight ratio of any airliner on Earth. The change in Alpha and lift is a trifling matter for it, at these settings (1-5). It will fly out of it easily, even at that density altitude.

The attitude change is - in the circumstances I describe, consistent with a massive power loss (both sides). I believe based on probability that simultaneous mechanical failure is not the cause. Fuel contamination or starvation is likewise unlikely based on the 787 fuel system.

The common element is the FADEC/Autothrottle/TOGO. However, each engine FADEC is dual redundant two channels. So any such common failure must happen further upstream. From a design perspective, that would be unthinkable. But this is Boeing.

Given what I can see with my own eyes, I believe the flap issue is a non-starter.

Also, re the landing gear: Clearly the Positive Rate challenge would be met based on normal rotation and fly-off at V2. But since we know the flaps were set correctly, that rules out an "oopsie" moment. Just as likely there was at the challenge moment an indication that something was amiss, and the Gear Up call was not made. They see both N1s unwinding and it takes a second to get past the WFT factor. They cross-check and see the airspeed also unwinding. Then they unload the Alpha and pitch to gear down Vy. And they had another 6 seconds.

Whatever it was, it was not a flap, mechanical or fuel issue.

We will know soon enough. But this is Boeing. My gut says "software".

All 787s worldwide need to be grounded, now.

[Open Source Intel @Osint613]

Here’s what just went down — and it’s very interesting:

1. UK Maritime Trade issued a rare warning about rising tensions in the Gulf, Strait of Hormuz, and Gulf of Oman, citing potential military escalation that could directly affect shipping.

2. The US Embassy in Iraq is prepping for an ordered evacuation due to security threats.

3. The State Department is pulling nonessential staff and families from Bahrain and Kuwait.

4. U.S. military dependents in Bahrain have been cleared for temporary departure.

None of these moves came from Fleet Forces Command, meaning this likely came from the top, possibly the White House. Something serious is unfolding.

A huge part of the mfg problem in the US is fragmentation, discovery, and scalability problems. There are tens of thousands of manufacturers in the US. Care to comb through and find one who has both capability and capacity to meet your needs?

You have no idea, how much PCB designers will appreciate this. Board level component density can increase and reduced trace geometry further cures SI induced maladies.

Calling c the "speed of light" completely misses the point. Rather, c is the "spacetime exchange rate": how many units of space you can exchange for one unit of time.

In actuality, everything travels at the "speed of light", just not necessarily through space alone... (1/4)
