> The return of the veteran engineers at Ford cuts against the prevailing wisdom — and fear — that AI will replace all kinds of knowledge workers. But Ford found the machines couldn’t replace experience.
I'm not sure this story is illustrative of that, when you have a VP of engineering saying “Over prior years, we didn’t pay as much attention as we should have to the experience of our most knowledgeable engineers that have been with us through many product cycles.”
He's saving face while almost certainly trying to figure out how to make the new systems work so that next time he won't need to rehire engineers.
I'm in the same boat, I code mostly by hand. I really enjoy it. The OP seems to have given it up without a fight, and that doesn't make sense to me. Especially because with 30 years experience I'm guessing they have FU money and are probably better than most people using AI anyways. Keep doing what you love and "surrender to the flow".
Uninformed FUD, not a single dsp "trick" related to passive radar is ITAR controlled. The equivalence the OP mentioned is literally described in every undergraduate dsp textbook.
That's very evil to recommend a graduate electrodynamics book to learn more about passive radar. I would suggest taking a look at Platos Republic to get some intuition on why that is. </s>
I'm probably spitting in the wind, but stuff like this is why I removed all my hosted open source projects. I manage several niche projects that I have now converted to binary only releases (to almost no push back). It's niche enough that it's not very hard to get LLMs to output chunks of code that it managed to scrape before I took it offline. I don't see many people talking about this angle, but LLMs ripping off my work killed my open source efforts.
Why did you want to install windows 11 anyways? I also have a PC stuck on Windows 10 and it makes me happy that it's now stable and not part of the forced rolling releases in Win11. Im going to run it on Win10 as long as I can.
FWIW, You can buy legit used 82357s for quite a bit less than 1k. Anecdotally, I've never had one fail in 20 years. Probably bought a dozen over that time frame. All used daily.
I work in an EE dominated industry where staff and principal titles are only handed out to 30+ year veterans who know their domains better than anyone else in the world. These are people who specialized in one thing their entire career (mmWave RF amplifiers for instance). These companies are every where big software is at, and then some. They don't pay great, they are not "cool" to work at. Gov is often the biggest customer. Doing something novel in these fields will require a PhD, a decade of corporate R&D experience, and significant corporate backing.
As someone with a WRT3200ACM, what's the advantage of OpenWRT over the preinstalled FW? (honest question) A quick search indicated better security (which I don't know how to assess), and I was wondering if there was any functional/feature advantages you have seen.
Rx/TX isolation?
Typical image rejection (dB)?
Does it support hardware level timestamping to align tx and rx samples through soapy?
