There are a lot of assumptions one could make when designing data types and schemas for aviation data that turn out to be inaccurate. In the spirit of Patrick McKenzie’s classic piece on names, here are some false assumptions one might make about aviation.
lots of people think the number 1 problem for indies is game quality, when actually it's visibility by multiple orders of magnitude. how can i prove this? because even now, almost a year out from Kitsune Tails' launch, we still haven't reached all the lesbian fox girls who'd buy the game if they knew of it
how do i know this? because during each sale promotion i get at minimum one reply, often more, from these lesbian fox girls who only just then discovered the game through one of my posts
friends, I am in a six hour call that’s supposed to be a high level overview of a certain embedded software runtime. The current slide contains a discussion of the garbage collection subsystem and heap management, and also a diagram of how an individual cell of static ram works with the electrons shuffling around between the 0 and 1 states. There are several hundred words in a tiny font talking about voltage and whatnot.
