:: Asta ::@HubCityLocal @acarsdrama right?! how is that NOT the easiest thing to mark off in the map data?!
Passwordsarehard4@HubCityLocal @acarsdrama maybe it’s one of those things they just assumed they didn’t have to have a rule for.

"AI" depends on training data. If it didn't contain this situation, it's not gonna get creative, reasonable or transfer knowledge to an unknown scenario, it's just gonna fail.
That's also why the "self driving" rollout is so slow, they need to train them for all the edge cases or they will crash and kill.
@Flo_Rian @HubCityLocal @acarsdrama I’d think it would be a clearly designed no fly zone. It might only be off limits when they conduct tests though.
Virginicus@HubCityLocal @acarsdrama The airspace is cut up into blocks. The military users can release a path through the middle for civil aviation, conditions permitting.
Jeff Grigg@Virginicus @HubCityLocal @acarsdrama
"During non-testing hours or weekends, manned flights may sometimes be cleared through, but usually only at extreme altitudes (24,000 feet or higher) and only after being coordinated through local ATC and range control."
@Virginicus @HubCityLocal @acarsdrama
"WSMR encompasses 3,421 square miles (roughly the size of Rhode Island) of Department of Defense-restricted airspace that it controls 24 hours a day from zero to infinity (ground to space), and can be expanded up to 7,569 contiguous square miles, making it the largest restricted DoD airspace in the country."
🐕@acarsdrama this is reassuring
Chris Samuel@acarsdrama that would be one for Peter G. Neumman's RISKS digest if I ever I saw one, @SecureOwl, RIP PGN. 😢
John Cormier 🇨🇦@acarsdrama one does not simply fly into the White Sands missile range
Pavel A. Samsonov
Graham Sutherland / Polynomial@acarsdrama gotta avoid the externally mediated rapid unplanned disassembly
Jim Spath@acarsdrama I know this system--Zaxxon!
rickf@acarsdrama this is fine …. they call it progress’
yuubi@acarsdrama @Computer says we have too many a/c, pilots, and problem pax. follow Friend Computer's advice to avoid treason charges.
SpeakerToManagersForget Airspace! It’s a stretch Boeing 737: odds are it’ll drop some critical part when a window blows out and the altimeter will follow it down.
