@douglasvb @me_valentijn That’s a sad outcome for what was a very useful service. Thanks for filling me in. Back to watching ADSB this summer I suppose.

I certainly have my own feelings about the LLMificarion of software engineering, but as someone ~25 year into their career, I’m not sure how much those matter. I work with a bunch of relatively junior engineers folks in the first five years of their career. Their reaction to all this- and especially young women- is sadness. “This job, babysitting the bots, isn’t what I wanted to do.”
