on HN thread Twice as fast as Concorde: Supersonic jet will fly from London to NY in 2 hours
s/flown/ridden/. FTFY. I'm going to guess you weren't at the controls. Also, fair point. I have personally been holding back private supersonic travel for decades. I killed the 2707 a few years before my birth and worse than that, I personally lifted 2 billion Indians and Chinese out of poverty solely to cause demand for fuel (and thus prices) to skyrocket so that in case anyone managed to build an SST, it would be uneconomical. I'm the inspiration for [this video] P.S. I'm a pilot who flies (not just rides) planes and I'd love to fly or ride this thing, doesn't mean it will ever happen.

on HN thread Cooling off your Raspberry Pi 4
Certainly, the key is hot air needs to be able to get away from the SoC. For my home lab, I don't bother with the fans/cases and instead just stack the Pis with brass spacers. I haven't had any issues yet with the ambient room temperature around 20-22ºC (68-71.6ºF for the stonecutters who keep the metric system down[1]). [1] [this video]
