We just completed a successful flight for our tech demonstrator, Lat One v0.2.
Lat Aerospace is building ultra-short takeoff and landing aircraft using blown wing technology. Think fixed-wing performance with near-helicopter access.
A couple of months ago, v0.1 achieved uSTOL but crashed shortly after. That was expected. v0.2 was about completing the full mission, and it did. The blown wing concept worked in reality. Closed-loop control got validated. We'd predicted a cruise speed of 30-32 m/s and cruised comfortably at 33. No thermal issues despite a burning afternoon. The quick-detach wings held through aggressive turns. Was in the air for over 6 minutes. Smooth touchdown, and ready to fly again.
But the thing that makes me the happiest isn't any of that. It's that our CFD studies, aerodynamic models, SIL simulations, and flight logs all match, almost perfectly. That's what real engineering looks like. I am so proud of our team.
A long way to go, and we are getting there.

okay simply put, what I've realized is the purpose of meditation is to induce a state of mind - which, when internalized over a period of time starts manifesting as actions you take
so you're not building a habit, you're rehearsing a state of mind via simple manifestations, until it starts acting and deciding on your behalf differently - which is what behavioral change is

controversial: in order to live a great life, you have to completely ignore the world’s problems.
i like to call it meta minimalism.
you just obsessively focus on your mission, on how to create a sustainable value system to make money, and spend as much time with your family and traveling the world.
i am convinced that the greatest thing to spend your lifetime on is to see as much of the diverse beauty of this world as possible.
combine it with a strong mission in life and you have unlimited energy, inspiration and fun. and obviously you will never have a problem with fear again.

We were gifted a planet overflowing with trees, fruit, water, medicine, and sunshine and somehow invented debt, LinkedIn, and war.

Dear sir,
Cannot wait for your public and harsh lectures on how Chandigarh/Mohali administration works.

many podcasters are from faridabad yet it took an intern, with a grassroot connect, to tell the world how bad everyday existence there literally is maybe, just maybe, the podcasters live in up societies and cater to up audience lesson: immense opportunity to do real podcasting

I know life is meaningless but living inside an apartment makes it more meaningless.
