With all this talk of Agile, continuous delivery, Waterfall etc, it reminds me of a Software Engineering course I did at University. Specifically one of the methodologies mentioned which was a Spiral model. The gist was that instead of having one monolithic Waterfall process, you would still do the steps in waterfall, but you would release more often and have smaller releases. So that after a few iterations you would spiral in on the desired solution.

Upon reflection this seems like a proto-agile methodology, and because it doesn't have its own set of buzzwords and extra processes it seems like it could be a good reactionary (as a reaction against full Agile) methodology to use.
Hey Paul, we have this feature added as a Lua script, but adding it in a native way could be interesting actually. Itamar Haber wrote the Lua script and was pushing for adding it in a native way, I wanted to check after the release the actual demand for it.

Yes? When you're young and in the workforce you can get a raise, get a higher paying job, learn new skills, etc.

If you're retired and possibly chronically ill you have little opportunity to do such things.
The current legs aren't flimsy, and they seem way less complicated than a gripper system would have to be. How would a gripper system handle off-centered landings? It would have to catch the falling rocket very quickly because there's not much fuel left in the tank to hover. Your proposed system would add a lot of complexity, all for the small decrease in launch mass.

That's a little bit of a technically. Saying you have to go all the way, so to speak, and you can't do anything to prevent it is the same as saying it has to be for that purpose. As a mental exercise, say every time you had sex you had to pull the trigger on a revolver that has a bullet in only one barrel. Sure there is a 5/6 chance you will be fine but who in their right mind would take that?

Someone can say it has an emotional aspect all they want (and they do, and it's true) but that doesn't stop the other part from being true too.

Note: I have a child and I love her more than anything. Buy saying you can't do anything to prevent pregnancy and saying the only way you can have sex if there is a chance you procreate is the same thing (unless your physically incapable).

A retreat is, generally speaking, a day or series of days (anywhere from 2 to 30+) during which one spends the majority of one's waking hours praying, reflecting silently, listening to presentations on some topic/s and/or attending workshops (which form the basis of one's reflections), and possibly engaging in one-on-one or group discussions (depends on the retreat's format, some entail silence throughout).

To lessen distractions from the cares of daily life, retreats are usually conducted away from one's domicile in some peaceful setting (mountains, coast, etc.), at a "retreat center" or some facility that provides sleeping quarters, bathrooms, meeting space, and a refectory. To make the whole exercise cost-efficient, a retreat is usually conducted for a small to medium-sized group, rather than for just one or two participants.

In the context of religious institutions, it is a fairly common practice to organize retreats for persons who are finalizing their preparations for a change in state of life, e.g. going from single to married, lay person to ordained, student to graduate, etc. The topics addressed at such retreats usually pertain to that change, with an aim to help participants better prepare internally for the obligations and challenges ahead.

What a complete load of utter tripe. Its a bunch of people getting excited and happy and celebrating success. That's it.

While I agree with your overall sentiment, I imagine that people building rockets make complexity tradeoffs to save tiny amounts of weight all the time.

But how does that contradict that he has persuasion skills?

In fact, by today's standards, to have success one very important ingredient is to have persuasion skills, also known as salesmanship. Many of us, software developers are sadly not good at salesmanship, but at least we can recognize it when we see it. And personally I think Trump has it, even if his style is obnoxious.

That he has skills only because of today's standards, that may be true, but I wouldn't be so sure of causality: are today's standards responsible for Trump's success, or has Trump adapted to today's standards? I guess we'll never know.

My problem with your argument is that it seems you're considering Trump to be unskilled. I think that's a mistake and if I were in Trump's shoes, that's exactly how I'd like for people like us to think, because he's not the kind of man leaning towards dialog, strategies or cooperation, but rather the kind that does battles and in battles you want to be an asshole (people love assholes in battles, because they make a good show and supposedly show "strength"). And also you want to be underestimated.

He was afraid of punishment for not knowing how to do his job.

Remove the punishment, create a systemic environment of improvement rather than individual blame, and he can easily speak up and say he's not prepared for the procedure and get help.

Without that, he's afraid of being fired or discovered as "inept," none of which will help him become less inept, which is the only goal that matters.

The question is not how we weed out inept doctors, but rather how we create a system that improves doctors systemically so that as few as possible are unqualified for as little time as possible. Thinking about this as an individual problem is unhelpful and inconsequential to any real change.

Perhaps Apple should consider restructuring in a way similar to Alphabet. Take big risks within individually branded subsidiaries. If a subsidiary startup-like company fails, it disappears, and Apple can easily distance the parent brand from the failure. If a moonshot subsidiary wins, Apple wins too, and they've potentially created a new, valuable brand in the process.

Or maybe Apple should attempt a partnership with YC or some other incubator (or perhaps even start their own iNCUBATOR). Apple has lots of money. They need to take on riskier projects, but perhaps want to limit risk to public perception from failed projects. So they fund startups and compensate YC for vetting ideas and founder teams. In return, Apple gets equity and/or some kind of acquisition option. More startups get to be funded, with more ideas and founders getting tested, and YC reduces their risk of initial funding.
If you can move in a 2 dimensional plane, such as inside a regular building, you can go in a straight line between any two points.

If you're constricted to moving around the circumference of a circle, you necessarily have to go in a curved line.

Curved lines are longer than straight lines.

So the average distance between any two points is necessarily going to be longer in the Apple building than in a normal building with the same floor area.

Add to that, normal buildings have cores where the utilities are run in the center and radiate out to the edges. Running wiring, plumbing, and ductwork around a circle will involve miles of additional material that would otherwise be unnecessary.

I think maybe you and Apple have a definition of efficient that differs from the rest of the population.

Permanent decrease in launch mass is big money, whereas complications on the barge do not really matter. Like all good engineering problems, it only looks problematic at first sight and I am sure that SpaceX could rise up to the challenge. Use a big funnel mesh?

However, I accept the comment that perhaps they are really practising for landings on Mars, where fair number of probes have overturned on landing.

It certainly simplifies things, which is why perhaps the air travel question is so much easier to make a conclusion on.

Advanced Py.test
The rocket can land anywhere in a area of a couple hundred square meters. How would you design the "grippers" to work anywhere on the barge? How would you "grab" the stage without punching a hole in it?

The landing legs aren't all that heavy, are on the first stage (where the mass penalty isn't as bad), and can be engineered to distribute the force through the structure of the stage that can handle it.
The question is whether that's cause or effect - and regardless, the correlation between metabolic rate and lifespan clearly isn't very strong (as in there are many other factors that probably matter).

In the big scheme of things, a mere 27% difference isn't all that great. I mean, heck, hummingbirds can live to be 10 which is more than twice as long as even record-breaking genetically engineered mice, despite hummingbirds having an unusually high metabolism.

The 27% difference more remarkable if you consider how similar we are to other apes. Regardless, I can't imagine that simplistically extrapolating lifespan from metabolism is particularly accurate, even if it gets you in the right ballpark.

As soon as they continued after the very first 'no' it becomes harassment. Imagine this was a work setting, the FBI was a coworker of this individual, and they asked for a date. After the very first "no, please don't bring it up again" it becomes harassment.

>You end up with a you-know-how-to-learn-for-life idea, but that's always been unsatisfying for me.

Public schooling (in the US) will always feel like it's torn between the two extremes of giving a strong liberal arts, "learn for life" education and giving a strong vocational, "useful in the real world" education. In my experience, it's actually neither. Education is an equalizer.

>What I'm getting at is whether you can really learn anything without having some sort of intrinsic interest, and whether it's worthwhile to force people to learn stuff that they will forget even existed in a few years.

Yes, 100 times over, to both of them. The former is not like riding a bike, but maybe like cooking a favorite meal you haven't made in years. An adult might have forgotten the quadratic equation, how to apply it, and how to use it, but give them 5 minutes of instruction and most will be right back in the swing of things.

The second half, though, is so important, that I think it's worth quoting again.

>[Is it] worthwhile to force people to learn stuff that they will forget even existed in a few years

It is incredibly important to force people to learn stuff that they might forget even existed in a few years. A free and appropriate public education is one of the greatest things we as a civilization can provide to our citizens. Education is possibly the greatest civil right we possess.

If we, as a collective people, do not mandate schools offer classes on how to analyze text and history, write a persuasive essay, solve advanced algebra and geometry problems, and the natural sciences, then some schools simply will not offer those courses. If we do not mandate that every student take these courses, then some students will not take those courses. And if they don't have access to these courses, then they don't have equal access to higher education. (Not to mention how important some topics in Algebra I and II are to managing your finances and understanding compounding interest.)

These will generally be the schools and students that are already the most disadvantaged. The inner-city schools that are counting every dollar. The children of the drunks that you mentioned, the children of loving and well-meaning parents that work three part-time jobs that simply don't have the time to follow up on the minutia, and the special education students that are just as smart as their peers but require support to show that. These students all deserve the opportunity to take those classes. If the classes aren't required, they might not even get that chance.

To put it another way: I'm guessing you and your peers were likely exposed to computers by the time you were, I dunno, 16? Not all of you went on to work in tech and post on Hacker News. But all of you had the opportunity to work in tech and post on Hacker News. If you didn't ever get to interact with a computer until you were an adult, and even then you had to seek it out yourself, how would that change things in your life?

Education has to do that for every student, in every subject.
This is why the Lean healthcare movement (and Lean in general) is so great.

It takes procedures into account, like checklists and workflows and all that, but more importantly it takes into account the human psychological factors in the workplace that prevent success on even the simple solutions.

However, this could not be more perfect an explanation:

> People want to hear about simple solutions. They disengage when a problem is described as complex.

This is where true leadership is required to breach the barrier of complexity and lead systems thinking across a (naturally) complex organization. Any organization. It's extremely difficult to get people to look outside their bubble or change the way they think, and that's required to manage any complex system with any success. This leadership is the main barrier to improvement in any org.

Anyways, as a non-American living in the US since 2001, I fail to see an issue with chanting USA, one way or another.

It is an American company, with majority US employees, running this project (mainly) for an American entity (NASA), on US sovereign territory (or ocean?), using a significant chunk of US resources. So, it is their company and their country. I say, let them do what they want with it. And if chanting USA is what they wish to do, I have no problem with that.
