ASJA L2

The ASJA L2 was a Swedish biplane trainer aircraft built for the Swedish Air Force in the early 1930s. It was designated Ö 9 in that service. The fuselage was of fabric-covered, welded steel tube construction and accommodated the pilot and instructor in tandem open cockpits. The wings were fabric-covered wood and were of staggered, single bay layout.

gollark: I should really see if it has a dark theme or not.
gollark: Hi.
gollark: I agree with actual Arduino boards being rather underpowered and suboptimal given newer alternatives, but being able to stick a microcontroller in and do much of your project's logic in software is easier and more flexible than having dedicated hardware.
gollark: You have a bunch of samples of a thing you want, and two neural networks; one is trained to distinguish real ones from ones the other generates, the other is trained to be able to generate fake ones the other one can't distinguish from real.
gollark: This is just the idea of "generative adversarial networks" in general.
