They discuss the technical nature of flight software, noting that modern aircraft like the 737 MAX are heavily dependent on computer overrides. A host recalls flying helicopters that ran on Windows NT 3.1, illustrating the "embedded" nature of aviation technology.

The conversation touches on the interdependency of hardware ports and the "microservices architecture" of modern devices that complicates simple plug-and-play functionality.

Simultaneously, a report on the 2009 Air France crash blamed pilot error rather than mechanical failure, which the hosts suggest may be a quid pro quo to protect the company's reputation. A technical discussion follows regarding the operating systems used in modern fly-by-wire aircraft.

The systems were reportedly running an obsolete version of Windows NT from the 1990s. Additionally, the SEC is investigating suspicious trading of BP shares following the explosion, drawing parallels to unresolved airline option scandals from 9/11.

While non-compete clauses exist, they are often difficult to enforce in the Silicon Valley "right to work" environment. Microsoft is criticized for a "not invented here" culture that prioritizes internal development over external talent.
