WOW, I was watching it live during landing and I thought that was it. And then 15mins later I saw this comment.
Can someone explain why the belly flop is necessary. Couldn't the slowing down by air resistance be done using the engine thrust in a vertical position instead ?
You're right. The IRS emphatically does not have everything. Please accept my deepest and humblest apologies for implying in any way, shape, or form that they do.

In addition to hundreds of millions of W-2s, the also IRS has 1099s and 1098s of various sorts. For the majority of Americans, the IRS already has the majority of their tax data. And the infrastructure already in place to provide this to them. Why not present it along with the opportunity to amend it? Or tally from zero yourself, if you prefer. This is what I intended to communicate earlier, and I can see I failed to be clear.

You're absolutely right. The IRS in no way has everything! Do you think it's maybe worth considering that it might be possible to make many people's lives easier for a very small marginal cost by letting people see what data the IRS already has about them? It might not work for every single person every single time, but it might work for a lot of people a lot of the time.

It was three engines through the whole rotation. They turned off two within about a second of one another after transitioning out of rotation.
It was the Delta Clipper (DC-X) [0] and that was actually like the SpaceX, grasshopper. It stayed upright, translated hovered and came back to land.

Starship has flaps, a low terminal velocity belly flop maneuver, and then a rotation up to landing only a few hundred meters up. They definitely build on each other, but this is more impressive.

I agree, but I think it's sad that we have to "escape" the Touch Bar. It drives me insane and I'm considering switching from a Pro to an Air just to get rid of it. But that doesn't say anything good about Apple.

I thought about that quite a bit before I posted this. "why do you care??"

The answer was still just the same: I'm curious who is working on this.

So I guess pretty much just curiosity for me.
Unless they have a carefully-worded Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
I might be mad but auth0 really for $6.5bn, seems like a pretty simple problem solved in a quite mediocre way. I mean the common use case of an app+api+website login seems excruciatingly difficult to setup, surely something that did this by default and didn’t need configuration unless breaking out of this model would be preferable to the weirdness I’ve had on the 3/4 occasions I’ve set it up now.
If you want to work up to it conceptually, then I'd say consider the meaning of something like

5·3 + 2·7

We add 3 five times, and then we add 7 twice. It is then easy to extend this to

5·3 + 2·7 + 0·4

and say, OK, add 3 five times, and then add 7 twice, and then add 4 zero times. And you get 29.

At that point you notice that when you say 5·3 means "add 3 five times", you forgot to say what you were adding it to. You're adding it to the identity, 0.

And finally we say that starting from 0 and adding something zero times leaves you where you started, at 0, so we can observe that 0·n = 0.

If you formalize that, you'll end up either deriving or postulating the distributive property, depending on what you start with. But it isn't arbitrary; it's not a coincidence that (as I mentioned above) exponentiation by 0 gives the multiplicative identity, and (as I haven't mentioned yet) exponentiation distributes over multiplication the same way multiplication distributes over addition.

(Asymmetry does start creeping in; aggregate exponentiation isn't as nice since exponentiation doesn't have the nice properties that addition and multiplication do.)
And cockroaches run away when you try to squash them.

And some plants furl their leaves when you touch them.

Not convinced by your argument.

Also that might be one of the dumbest experiments I've seen in a while. As if pigs can't use their noses (and heavily rely on them) to sense where food is, ignoring what their inferior eyes are telling them.

This game became a feature of this lockdown, it's understandable if you don't appreciate the humor, which isn't good to start with.

I would have left it there, though, as a token of these times.

Hey Zaheer here. There’s no excuse for ghosting. I totally apologize. I just checked back in my emails and it seems like our meeting and subsequent emails were around the same time I was out of town for a wedding a few things fell through the cracks. I generally make it a point to respond back to everyone but this was a period of time where there was a lot going on in my personal space and I’m sorry I wasn’t able to get back to you. I’ll DM you separately.

That's not how you treat broken cryptography. If your data is already collected and stored encrypted by a third party which still holds value after several years, you're already in bad shape.
Yeah no. Back in the 2000s when Iraq war was happening and marines were using MSN Messenger and I asked whether the unencrypted nature of the chat program would adversely impacted on their missions etc, and he basically said "hell they can spy all they want WE don't even know what we're doing next"

Which I thought he was joking at the time.
Most self-hosted stuff, even with zero maintenance, has usually better uptime than public services. A server running a simple app is more unlikely to break than a shared service that receives frequent software and hardware changes.
Yep. Simply mimics the human instinctive way to reach minimum survivable solution in the least amount of time.
So to bring this back to the topic at hand you think that the Amazon workers Union drive is on the "military intervention in Libya" end of the spectrum... For some reason?
As late as 2010 one could copy the install folder to any other Windows PC and start a licensed copy, or one that worked the same. That drove maaany people with easy access to a decent (phone) camera to pirate. People my age went hard into the "Facebook Photographer" and a surprising number are still doing well in that area (anecdotal and maybe not so much last year).

I know some of those old friends stuck to Adobe while others looked for open source/free alternatives depending on budget/revenue. I think one even works at/with Adobe these days after trying to hack on more features more than 10 years ago. But it's the same reason Apple/Google want kids using their devices in schools. Train the next gen to want your product and let the marketing flow.
The great irony in all this is that TurboTax has become the villain it was trying to fight, aka "adding a tax to filing tax returns". "Tax" not just in monetary terms of purchasing an annual software but also in the time spent in filing.

Why were they allowed to acquire a competitor (CreditKarma) again? Until we have stronger regulatory bodies, better funding for IRS, and just the will to fight corporate encroachment, this "tax on tax" will remain.

(As a side note, I suspect TurboTax software is designed to be complicated and obstruct the filing process so that you feel like you got your moneys worth after spending 2-3 hours using it.)
Almost a 2nd belly flop too.
> SpaceX's rapid iterations and fail fast methodology might save the human species

Would you mind elaborating here?

How will reaching a dead planet while we actively kill the literally perfect place for us to survive and foster save the human species, exactly? And how does a fail fast methodology fit in there?
Yeah, that's should be something along the lines of:

* Fraud: Selling a product not as advertised

* Tampering: Selling a product with the tamper seal broken

* Intent of causing bodily harm to newborns

Yeah that should give a nice little jail sentence lol. If this doesn't warrant an investigation then I don't know.
I believe when the HFP profile is used and mSBC is supported, then mSBC is used for both the input and output.
He's trying to make humanity a multiplanetary species while at the same time trying to get humanity off of fossil fuels by completely upending and dominating:

1) The space industry

2) The automotive industry

3) The solar industry

4) Some parts of the world's power grid infrastructure.

He asks a LOT of his employees, and despite his companies being 15 years old at this point, asks for the type of commitment from employees that you would find at an early stage startup.

His competitors are largely government contractors, and government-backed natural monopolies. Because of this, the contrast between working for a company like spacex (innovate or die) is in stark contrast to something like ULA (rest on the momentum you have built over the last 50 years. Go home every day at 5:00. Lobby your boss for 4 day work weeks).

There are a LOT of people who look at the people working at SpaceX, see the insane schedule the work at, and resent them for it.

They are literally trying to save the human species. It turns out that requires some pretty serious dedication, but it also turns out that there are going to be some people who hate you for it when you try.

Also: there have been MASSIVE short positions taken against tesla in the last 5 years. So there has been a lot of negative stories and anecdotes shared about the working conditions of Tesla factors. However it should be noted that those working conditions are approximately the same (or better) than at most other large automobile manufacturers.

> ...but dare I say that he maybe will lack some of the foresight, acumen, and product instincts of Bezos?

If you'd ask around the leadership at Amazon, they'd say Andy Jassy is as close to a "co-founder" you're going to find.

Besides, one simply cannot found and run a business like AWS while also lacking foresight, acumen, and product instincts.

> I am reminded of Gates/Ballmer. But maybe I am overfitting here.

Andy allegedly was tapped up to run Microsoft at different points in his career. So, may be not...

Andy likes to say that in business, rarely does one catch lightening in a bottle (ie you need a lot of iterations before you get lucky), but Jeff Bezos did indeed catch one in Andy Jassy. I mean just listen to him talk: https://thedisruptivevoice.libsyn.com/60-overcoming-the-capi...

The whole point is they’re two sides of the same coin
For me, startups helped me establish a track record and learn practical skills that helped get into bigger companies. I don't have a CS degree, and didn't go to a fancy school, so experience helped a lot. But now that I'm past that period, the value proposition of most startups seems really bad. Especially given ageism in tech, I think it really makes sense to maximize earnings while you can.

The really only reason I can imagine doing it would be if I really liked the team and product, such that the actual experience of working there was going to be really fun. But the startups I worked at were similar or worse than the larger companies on those fronts.

I think this Dan Luu article is a good look at it: https://danluu.com/startup-tradeoffs/
As some siblings have commented, it's probably the failure to get back and document it. But the desire for job protection is not uncommon. I saw it when I worked on testing satellite power converters at a large aerospace company. There were procedures and paperwork for everything, but the test procedure for one series of power converters did not work. Only one technician knew how to actually test them. He led me through it, and he had plenty of time to update the procedures, but refused to do it. It was gross and obvious what he was doing, but somehow he was allowed to get away with it. There was no union.

I would not recommend Ionic. I've been using it in a medium sized app for about 3 years now and I get the feeling it's good for getting started, but once your app grows past a certain size it's starting to create more issues than it solves.

Some examples from the top of my head:

- various performance issues (e.g.: memory leaks which haven't been fixed for years [1])

- their push/pop router navigation seems like a really bad idea

- worse developer experience than using Angular directly (e.g.: last time I checked this, the save/compile/reload cycle of an Ionic project was an order of magnitude slower than the same project without Ionic)

For all the hullabaloo about the Emperor’s new pErSoNaLiZeD ads, I have yet to see one about a video game or movie or book that I loved and didn’t discover through chance or word of mouth.

@People working in the ad/tracking racket: Please, instead of trying to guess who I am or what I like, why not just let me TELL you?

Let me provide some criteria (“pixel art”, “chiptune music”) and feed you some examples (Fez, MegaMan) and try to show me similar games. Then I might actually spend some money because of an ad for once.
This could easily be solved with DNT.

My RAM has a lot of duplicate data in. This seems counter to good design practices which should keep just one copy of big chunks of identical data.

That's a question of trading space for time. Sure, we could look at each page of cache RAM and work out the best way to use all of it very efficiently in terms of space, but what is the rest of your system doing while you're doing all that? Just wasting time, twiddling its thumbs, asking "Are we there yet?"

The tyranny of the rocket equation.

Every kilogram matters, because to lift that kilogram you need even more kilograms of fuel, but to lift that fuel you also need some more fuel! It's brutal.

So you save and you cut and you leave out everything that isn't absolutely necessary. Air resistance is almost free. You do need control surfaces, but they're small and hollow flaps. Fuel is heavy.

That's why 100% of spaceships use aerobraking during reentry. It's much, much cheaper than any kind of sci-fi powered descent.
And your point is?

The point I was making is that devaluation is a term to describe a deliberate thing whereas a currency losing its value 99-100% over time is not.

I think you’re right on the supply side of the equation, that the profit motive applies upward pressure. But the constraint is on the demand side - if I increase or even maintain my interest rate, the number of borrowers that are able to service the loan drops and the amount of bad debt increases. That’s in addition to the general disincentive to bring forward spending caused by deflation, which has already reduced the pool of borrowers. If I lower my interest rate I’m making less money but still taking on the same risk (if I calibrated my reduction in the rate to that effect). I might then mitigate the risk by tightening my lending requirements. Or I can choose to just stop lending. The result is a simultaneous drop in interest rates and in available credit. The central bank can try to boost lending by dropping its interest rates. When rates get near or below zero things get weird.

I was active duty Air Force in the mid 00s, and we had a tropospheric scatter terminal called the TRC-170 where the entire manual was reverse engineered. Air Force Technical Manuals aren't the most riveting of documents to read, but man that one was painful. The technology is badass though, and still useful even half a century later!

The story (which I have no idea if is actually true, but it was widely repeated), was that the engineer who built it in the 60s didn't get paid the full amount that he thought he was owed, so he destroyed the technical manual as a middle-finger to the Air Force.
I'm not sure I understand the point of this hair-splitting. There is a front line with land mines, ongoing armed conflict, and recent soldier casualties.

Do I read it correctly that you're working with images with repeated pattern of instances of the same object on the image?
