Not equivalent. Let’s measure the aircraft performance by its ability to carry passengers between capital cities.
It’s baby steps and we need to encourage more investment. Not dismiss the Wright brothers for being unable to fly from New York to London after ten years of development.
Wouldn’t be much of a short story if they did.
I liked the one where the robot could sense people’s emotional pain, and went crazy when it had to deliver bad news.
It’s like people who find I don’t believe in hell asking “what’s stopping you from murdering people?”
If religion is all that’s stopping you, I’m worried.
Slightly related, I tend to look at heavily advertised products as inferior. Because really good things sell themselves, and all that marketing money ends up in the price I pay.

I know from experience that you can cut the tip of your finger off and it will grow back more or less the same. But if you have it stitched back on, it will leave a scar and not feel the same again.
I am getting old. My parents told me that I’d understand how the world works when I get older, but I just hate it more and more.

I used to play carrier command back in the day. It had low poly graphics, but it was great for the time. I used to love flying a Manta to escort a walrus to hit a long distance target. Did you play the original? How does it compare?
Skype used to be peer to peer. Your call went from you to your friend (whomever). Microsoft decided that they couldn’t mitm that setup to scrape data; so, soon after they acquired Skype, they made all calls go through their servers.
Then they tried to make Skype make more money, since those servers aren’t free. Then they made teams and copied half the code into that, and cludged the rest to make it hold together.
I recently found out the blood bank has an office near my favourite bar. So I’m going to give blood before a few beers and see how I go. Should be a cheap night.
