      Logging Training Sim Time (C-130J)

      By 8BC · Posted

      Right there, mostly towards the bottom.  Lockheed Martin, L-382-J, Marietta, GA.  There is a L-382 listed in there as well, Flight Safety-Tampa, if I remember from reading 5 minutes ago.    Interesting interpretation. I have L-382 and L-382J types having only flown military.  Maybe the policy has changed to a more restrictive position.  It happens.      Bottomline #1:  Keep track of ALL of your flights & sims. SARMs will never care about you as much as you need them to. Bottomline #2: keep track of ALL of your flights & sims. Rules change. Today’s horizontal head shake may become tomorrow’s head nod. It is far easier to re-create the wheel if you already left a trail of bread crumbs. Best of luck as you start your career!

      Logging Training Sim Time (C-130J)

      By FourFans · Posted

      Exactly.  In none of my interviews were there any serious questions about logged time.  The only real sim question were the interviewer asking about how we taught in the J, as students did a full IFR qual in the sim.  Not sure if that's the still the case.  He was an old school herk driver and was curious.

      The Iran thread

      By Smokin · Posted

      It'll be an interesting and tough call for Israel.  Do they gracefully accept the help they received and use the short term international good will to free up a hand to do more damage to Hamas or do they strike back at Iran in a significant and public way to show they won't accept this type of thing?  Striking back may be popular and gratifying in Israel but might end up doing more harm than good in the long run. My bet is nothing happens for a while and then some Iranian leader has 'an accident' or one of Iran's centrifuge facilities suffers a mysterious explosion.  Something that everyone knows was Israel but no one is really able or willing to prove thus decreasing the chance of escalation while showing that they won't sit by while a country launches a horde at them.

      Artificial Intelligence: Discussion and demonstrations

      By Lord Ratner · Posted

      Yup. There's some interesting discussion about using the "holes" in the weights to use AI to discover new things. Basically, the AI uses data to find the most common connections and build answers based on those weights. Reverse it and you can find "answers" that are the opposite... the least common connections. Problem is, how do you filter good things from an infinite supply of "wrong" answers?   Anyways, using Udio I finished a full-length song that I think is better than most country music produced today. Enjoy!   Crumbs and Chrome Hearts https://www.udio.com/songs/5g1enYTaTmMCYMbrAxzDVi

      Artificial Intelligence: Discussion and demonstrations

      By Danger41 · Posted

      Your description of a a "hyper sophisticated search engine" is very accurate. I've worked on a bunch of AI things and the annoying part about AI is the assurance that people think it will get to "general" artificial intelligence because it's growing so fast. It's very similar to saying we'll have time travel in the next 10 years because tech is changing so fast.  https://www.hup.harvard.edu/books/9780674278660 - "The Myth of Artificial Intelligence" is a good read to understand this subject.
