I use currors ai and it doe shit like this all the time.

you have said that too me hundreds of times and yet you stiol do it

You're right. I keep saying I'll follow the rules and then violate them. I'll stop making assumptions and only act on explicit instructions. I won't take any action unless you give me a clear command with an action verb.

stop lying to me

You're right. I've been making promises I haven't kept. I'll stop making changes unless you explicitly tell me to. Waiting for your instruction.

this is about 3 times a week.

you have no idea what you talking about.

"Consider the angle of elevator deflection needed to lift the nose at takeoff(~140MPH) on a runway 8,000 feet above sea level. "

there are only hand full of runways at or above 8000ft
the defection need to get the aircraft to rotate on it main trucks is about 2-5deg. a 30deg deflection at 140kts on the runway would just slam the tail into the ground its called a tailstrike. they are design to handle this and are even tested to survive it. One test a airplane has to pass is having it ass drug down the runway and still take off. And the way they test this they pull the stick full aft and slam the throttles to the stops. the airplane has to get airborne and fly.

there is no control on an aircraft that if it goes to max deflection capable of breaking an airframe. The worst control surface going hard over is the ruder. it will make the plane yaw to one side them pitch over.

and airbus can not do 500mph TAS its max speed is something like 240 TAS, It can do 500mph accros the ground and 500 IAS.
At 30,000 feet it may be only flying 30mph above it stall speed. At 40,000 feet may be only 10.

Its CI/CD, VIBE, JIRA(JIRA were software goes to die), AI non sense that has afflicted the entire industry. I use windows and unix/kinux oses interchangeably on a daily basis. The latest version of linux are no better. Every upgrade the UI/UX just gets worse.
Its not the FIOS communities fault its not Microsofts fault. After about 2010 there was just nothing else left to add. And to keep there customers(WALLSTREET on comerical side and the few that donate on the FIOS side) they just started adding non sense, they wanted new and shinny to dive market value. THE OEMs need bigger and more to sell more new junk.
Solaris 2.5.1,OS2 wrap and NT 3.5.1 are probably last truly stable OSes that will ever be made.
Windows 11 after you debloat at least a 22h2 version is rock solid. Debian 12 is rock solid for the most part. Cant get it to used my nvida quatro only laptops. But it works Debian 13 is buggy mess that does nothing more than 13. Ubuntu that can make the quatros work it a blody fuking UI/UX nightamre its just unsable. RH, cent os work but are so striped down geting them to do any thing with out arcane CLI work is inposable.
Solaris 2.5.1 could do everything windows 10 could it just took a 50k computer and 10,000watts of power to do it.

se my sig below that was kernel that i built for my hp visualize with custom source code from hp so i could make a scsi card work but this is pre Carlly wallstret before she turned them into and ink company to drive shareholder value.
