Reduced Abstraction explained
As expected, Deathstar is still well behind on this Friday afternoon flight.
Thanks to the elf I’ve just gone down a rabbit hole at Flight Aware to understand what they aren’t silly enough to tell me.
You can do almost anything there. See photos of your plane. Checkout the blueprints. See sub minute data of the flight altitude and speed. Find flight route details, and so much more.
The problem is it removes the mystery from flying.
And now I’m analysing the data for risk factors.
In hindsight, I prefer ignorance to keep that NRE* up.
It’s a quantum effect of sorts: if you observe the thing it collapses to an anxiety-inducing boring state.
