Is there always a great reference for which way down is, given that the phone can be in various orientations? You might have to do some other heuristics / build some other model for that to figure out which axis to subtract your 9.8 m/s^2 from - maybe it's easier not to worry about it.

Isn't merging gyro data with accelerometer data pretty standard approach?

I forgot phones have gyroscopes :)

The issue isn't that it's self-deprecating, it's that it's not funny, esp. given the context. "Read the room" type of thing.

Speak for yourself, I found it chuckle worthy

What services have you heard this about?

Bigtable is a wrapper of Bigtable; Spanner is a wrapper of Spanner, Storage is a wrapper of Storage. Not sure why the GP thinks this is a bad thing.

Was mentioned in an onsite interview i had with them a few years back. Maybe i misunderstood but it seemed that internal teams didn't integrate with the same API as external customers. Not sure the other reply means that the "wrapper" doesn't exist or the wrapper's are just named the same as the underlying service or i just misunderstood the point.

My impression (I work at Google) is that internal interfaces to some of these services have a lot of Google-specific stuff that are hard to map to non-Google requirements.

T-Mobile definitely will (I mean, you pay for x GB and minutes and it lasts a month, just like most prepaid setups). Just requires a download of their app -- I use it when I'm traveling to the states (my carrier in NZ uses a physical SIM).

One way to do that would be to look at outcomes of patients who have received the therapy to see if they feel their needs are met, like this study did.

This is a neat project. You're up against people setting up their own WireGuard exit nodes -- are these folks just not in your target audience?

It’s mostly people who need good IP reputation and a user friendly managed service. It’s hard to get clean IPs from massive cloud services.

Yeah you're right. Selecting the URL and hitting enter did clear the Referer. One comment says the browser identifies the Referer by looking at the history is that so?

Can I ask if you actually fly planes? Moving the trim is exactly how most autopilots work. I usually fly the 172 and pitch changes made via the autopilot (I am usually flying with a GFC700) are done 100% via actuation of the trim wheel -- and the trim wheel is also the main control for adjusting control forces to maintain a given pitch attitude.

Edit: Reading your comment more closely, I think your concern is more to do with the fact that the trim is actuating the whole horizontal stabilizer rather than just the elevator? There is no separate elevator trim on the 737.

Currently saving up for getting my license. :)

I understand why it's easier to let the autopilot control the trim instead of messing with the primary controls.

What feels weird is the fact that it's using this whole monster of a mechanism in order to provide the pilot with an artifical stick force.

I get it, the control column is supposed to require more pull force the closer to Vs you get. It's not what real planes do, but it's a safety mechanism, alright. But instead of using a simple servo that would actuate the control column and wrestle with the pilot a little, what they're doing is they're actually trimming the plane nose-heavy so that actual real forces wrestle with the pilot.

Instead of a servo pulling on the control column slightly to enhance the natural pitch-up moment of an overspeeding aircraft they trim the plane nose-up and again, let the pilot push against an aerodynamic-yet-artificial force.

The problem is that the 737 was designed in the 60s. The point where all the automation is designed to get hooked in is the trim.

If it were designed today, the 737 would have fly by wire, and all the stick forces would be generated by a servo and the computer anyway.

Speaking about conspiracy by "pseudo-feminists and simps" doesn't lend a lot of credibility to the argument.
