Software engineers shouldn't fear being replaced by AI. They should fear being asked to maintain the sprawling mess of AI-generated legacy code their employer's systems will soon run on. Because that one will actually happen.

The Yawman Arrow is by a huge margin the easiest way to get into MSFS or XPlane. One device, pre-loaded profiles, and BOOM you are flying within 3 minutes of booting the SIM.

Using chat LLMs for all their strengths and faults (been using @grok for several days), I have found my killer application for them: finding needles in a haystack. When you have too broad a domain and trying to find a productive way to pierce it, they help suggest where to start.

My 14yo daughter is fighting for her life battling a high grade glioma and leptomeningeal disease (LMD). I asked Grok3 about research and clinical trials that could help her and I cannot believe how incredibly helpful and powerful the response was. Thanks @xai
