Very curious why you'd take this approach over something like the Boston Keratoprosthesis (https://eyewiki.org/Boston_Type_1_Keratoprosthesis). With a history of cornea rejection, mine has been stable for almost 16 years.
There are some circumstances where a keratoprosthesis won’t work, particularly if the eye has no tear production. OOKP is a good technique in some where they are blind in both eyes from severe ocular surface issues but the retina is still intact. It is very resource intensive and involves a number of subspecialty areas, and so is a last ditch effort for the bilaterally blind.
> Many studies have shown the incidence of repair procedures and worse final vision outcomes were higher in groups with autoimmune conditions (SJS, OCP). The difference in outcomes appears to be related to the degree and cumulative past period of inflammation. Overall most favorable outcomes are achieved in non-cicatrizing conditions, followed by ocular burns and OCP with the worst outcomes in SJS patients.
The patient in the article was a SJS patient

Hello from FlightAware! We are hiring for a few positions, including Engineering Managers and Senior Software Engineers. Our team is headquartered in Houston, Texas, but we work as a distributed team and accept remote applicants for work within the United States.
FlightAware has built the world’s leading aviation software platform, processing over 180 million incoming messages an hour from over 30,000 feeds—over 2TB a day and growing—to provide the best, most complete, and most accurate real-time flight tracking services in the industry. We use Python, Rust, C++, JavaScript, and TypeScript. We are proud to have built a wide variety of successful products on this foundation that have become central to the aviation industry at large.
Any tips if I want to apply for the senior software engineering role as part of the re-empower program? it's not really clear if there's a path to apply specifically in that way, or if i should simply state my interest as part of my cover letter. Going through the application process I don't see any indicator for this program.
Not OP, but you might want to, I dunno, run a search on the careers website. That's usually a good place to start.
Just a friendly tip: The market is pretty competitive nowadays and having critical thinking and problem solving skills can give you an advantage over your peers.
I spent like twenty minutes poking around. There's a possibly outdated form with a URL that suggests it's for a 2022 cohort, and there's no way to specify which role specifically someone is interested in. This is at odds with the role specific postings saying they're eligible for the program but there's no place to specify interest in the program outside the cover letter, and it seemed unlikely people are recruiting for the program simply by scanning cover letters that are going to be 99% for traditional job applications.
So it's not clear to me, which is why I asked.
It's further complicated the the program is a Raytheon specific thing, which is apparently the parent company for FlightAware, and the FlightAware website itself says nothing about the program.
Don’t worry about it, fair question and I wouldn’t waste calories on folks who can’t find it to be kind, especially with the job market as rough as it is now.
Applied for the Engineering Manager, Web role! Would absolutely love to work with FlightAware since I actually use the service. Any advice for going the process would of course be appreciated, if not, thanks for the post!

Hey, so the careers page just redirects to Raytheon's website, at which point the link leads to a search page with the term "FlightAware" that doesn't yield any results.

Im a pilot and a senior backend engineer so this would be pretty interesting. I tried applying, but the post request to https://flightaware.com/about/careers/position/61.327/apply is giving me Error 401: Bearer authorization missing, despite clearly having the Authorization: Bearer {token} header.
Can you confirm that it works?
FWIW I just tried it and it worked for me. Perhaps you can check the base64 value you generated for the token? Sometimes error messages can be misleading...
