I don't understand people who go through life picking apart literally everything from the perspective of "climate impact".

It feels like an eating disorder. Yes, everyone should manage their diet to a reasonable extent and be healthy.

But just like anorexia, where nothing is enough and where the target is simply "the minimum possible/less than yesterday", it just seems obsessive and unhealthy.
Well, the launch pad survived this one.
Yes right, thats why I searching for a solution it's really helpful
Have done it recreationally, and I can't imagine doing molly "under the supervision of a clinical professional." Seems like it would be absolutely awful. Don't recommend. I mean I really hope this helps a lot of people, but it's a hard pass from me. Would definitely recommend getting your hands on some and trying it with friends, though.
This. Literally the only reason I don't have a dog is because I'm not home for 50 hours per week.
Ah, okay that makes sense. Thanks for the detailed response!
NO, HERE IS THE REASON WHY:

- THE INTERNET STARTED IN THE 1960'S.

- THE FIRST VIDEO DISPLAY TERMINALS THAT CAME OUT IN THE 70'S DIDN'T SUPPORT LOWERCASE, E.G. THE DEC VT05.

- PHYSICAL TELETYPES AT THE TIME ALSO WEREN'T GUARANTEED TO SUPPORT LOWERCASE, LIKE THE DECWRITER LA05.
> government took part of spying in Brazil for Boeing in the past

Do you have more details? Please elaborate.
Musk has many issues, but what is the point of bringing his grudge with Trans? The rocket is a great success and in the grand scale of things is worth the ego grandstanding. The man has done nothing illegal and has accomplished a lot amazing things. Congrats to SpaceX, Elon, the Americans and Humanity.

What good is freedom of thought and speech if one cannot exercise it? I probably drank the old american koolaid and have not yet had my sip of the new one.
Regardless of the tone and attitude of the rant, is it not concerning that 30 employees, all of whom are remote and not on PTO, have not even opened their laptops in a month? If I were in leadership, I'd be concerned too.

Hell, my company MDM will automatically revoke many permissions if it doesn't get an automated device check-in at least once every two weeks or so.
Do you like being able to comment whatever you want about the government?
The cheering was annoying, it felt like it was being forced by some cringey hype man.
I didn't know about the single planet thing thanks for explaining that.

I guess I have more hope for the species in the near term and getting those photos seems to be something I personally care more about. But the two things are different you're right.
I get that it is a successful test based on the goals they set out, but the cheering seemed staged to me. If that was my rocket, I'd be very upset that it came so close to total success but didn't make it. Maybe everyone at SpaceX is just super emotionally mature
Is there a particular reason why you chose not to pass the torch? Too few users at this point? Most of the torrents having no seeders?

In any case, your story reminds me of the good ol' days of the web. Back in high school, being able to just put up a cool site and have people magically find it through Google felt like god mode. I never ran anything big like your torrent site (which I'm pretty sure I've visited), but I imagine you got a lot of satisfaction out of having thousands of users.

I miss the days when the web was this simple. Now I constantly question the time investment of creating a website because the (im)material condition has changed so much; the search algorithm is completely different and so many people use a small handful of platforms. Unless you generate eye candy and it goes viral, or it competes with major internet companies, I'm under the impression that you can just forget it.
> I hope customers consider this attitude and sentiment before writing checks to this organization.

Upon further investigation, it seems most of their customers are scammers and spammers, so I doubt any of them much care. The more psychopathic the guy is, the more likely they will be to buy more services, since most of his customers are probably connected (either directly or indirectly) to cybercriminal gangs.
Having the culmination of your work for the past several years actually culminate in a test flight is definitely a thing to celebrate in my opinion. The test flight is a ... test ... of a hypothesis that this system will make it to space (technically not orbit this flight).

Even with the failure they undoubtedly gathered loads of metrics to address for their next attempt.

The promise of Starship will lower the financial and logistical barriers of getting to space significantly which has the potential to open our civilization to tons of new possibilities that we haven't even considered yet.
This is also one of the very few uses of remote attestation that I support as a consumer.
Everything is political, particularly the actions of leadership of a state-backed enterprise by a democratic government.
As a professional developer I have always learned whatever language and tools they put in front of me. I got a .NET job on the strength of my experience with Java and other languages, worked mainly on Python at one place and then they put me to work in Typescript/React, etc.

I frequently use the same languages I use at work, for instance I do a lot of Javascript/React at work so if I wanted to make an SPA I would not screw around with Typescript or Vue but stick with what I am familiar with unless there is a really good reason. ("Write some boring program in an interesting language or framework" is a way to get burned out writing boring programs.)

My process for side projects involves a lot of thinking about things that are possible today that other people aren't doing so I can make a demo that people see and think "I never saw that before", so it is not a matter of "learning technology X" but rather "to accomplish A I will knock down whatever barriers are in the way which will involve selective learning about X, Y, Z, etc...

For instance I got interested in making printed red-cyan stereograms

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaglyph_3D

because my son found some good examples, made some with a Nintendo New 3DS, proved that it worked, asked around on dpreview about getting a better camera, got

https://us.kandaovr.com/products/qoocam-ego

wrote my own image processing software in Python using PIL, made prints some that succeeded, made more that failed. Studying the failures I found out that the color management system that all the printing vloggers tell you to use gets in the way because it blends a little bit of red into the green to make the green primary a little more yellow to conform to the sRGB standard but the extra red leaks into the wrong eye causing ghose images. Fortunately I had already debugged this kind of problem w/ high color gamut monitors that do they same thing and made a test pattern which I made some prints with different color management settings until I really understood what was going on.

(Note, this is something you won't learn out of a book or reading web pages. If I search for "color management stereograms" the first relevant result I see is myself talking about these problems on HN.)

I am going through the same process with huggingface transformers, I already have a text classification demo running with older technology so I know when the model gets 55% AUC it sucks because another model already gets 72% AUC. From day one I am not thinking about "how do I train a good model?" but "how do I train a good model reliably?". I am a professional software developer, not a "data scientist" who cosplays at adding value to their organization. So even at an intro level where I barely know what I am doing, starting with the starter examples, I would feel like a failure if I just got it to work once in a Jupyter notebook, as soon as possible I try to "close the circle" and get that model running every day inside my RSS reader. A deeper understanding will come later.
This story/thread gets my upvote because it is by far the least click-bait headline I saw in a quick scan of /new.

I will disagree with you though and say that the rocket stage separation failed to work. And this occurred a few minutes after launching.

What would your headline be?
You know, I thought it did but now it seems to work? Unless it's a different archive site, but in the past I couldn't view the unpaywalled links people posted because the firewall said the site is in the Russian Federation.

In fact I just found out about 12ft.io like a week or 2 ago and bookmarked it for that reason.
Honestly, step 1 would be to stop writing stuff like this.
How can you be sure that you are the only one in your country not connected to the same IP address provided by a VPN server?
yes, this is my experience as well. but any time i mention it, it seems like people don't want to hear that the AI revolution is really just "slightly better intellisense some of the time."
I don't get your comment. Feels like a disclaimer

"Yes I know Musk is bad and I'm not bad, see I'm not bad because I mention Musk is bad, I'm not one of them. That being said it was a nice rocket launch"

Are you doing this on all topics related to Musk?

What you're describing is an extreme of American popular culture, which is a small, biased selection of the American population. I'd be interested to know if there's any evidence that these traits are higher in the average American than in other countries. For N=1, I am pretty quiet, calm, spend plenty of time meditating, and don't really care about superficial appearances.
Do you think there are sound particles?
You can see the other currently downvoted comment.

It's like a religion that feels it needs to insert "God is great" or "in his divine wisdom" into every sentence, just to make sure nobody questions their piety.
Did the range officer destroy the rocket because it wasn't going to separate, or did the tumble destroy the rocket?
You might want to also listen to the SE Daily episode with Dhruba and Igor of RockDB, they cover similar aspects of RocksDB in details:

Dominion primarily works with the people that actually operate elections - local county governments.
I think a lot of articles and tweets are focusing on the failure incorrectly. Their views are coloured by wanting to see Elon fail because they don't like his views. This was at least a muted success and not an outright failure and it is just a stepping stone.

I was trying to say, yes, Elon has pretty bad views these days, but this is still at least a semi-success, not a set back or failure.
Marketing is all about manipulation
Pretty much, I'm sure most of us have at least once had a tumble at or above max-Q.

I'm intrigued as per cause. Lots of Engine failures and spewed parts. It had a real slide on liftoff. An engine violently flashed and went pop about +25s.

I do have to say, the thing requiring FTS after a violent flip well above supersonic speaks orders about structural work.
It's a money making scheme for sure, with gatekeepers and entrenched agents, not all medical providers are ethical...
The Times summary is solid:

> SpaceX’s Starship Rocket Explodes After Launch

> The most powerful rocket ever built got off the launchpad in South Texas, but did not achieve its most ambitious goals on Thursday.
>Google shouldn't be responsible for censoring the internet.

Then maybe they shouldn't have started doing so to begin with? As the joke goes, 'we've settled that, now we're negotiating on price.' This is nothing more than an acknowledgement of what has already been happening.

This is a common but equally silly complaint- people were denuding their islands of trees and hunting animals to extinction long before anything approximating capitalism. Socialism's externality record isn't amazing either.

Disagreeing on what things are important is just the human condition.
I'm not a content creator, but while I would never rely solely on AI to write content that I expected to be useful, I do use it for drumming up ideas and have found that (at least for me) its most effective utility is in generating outlines.

When I'm writing things informally (like HN posts) rarely allows me to do so clearly and linearly, and I am constantly either leaving out entire paragraphs that I just assumed I'd already written or am over-responding to things because I keep seeing blanks and just keep filling them. ChatGPT (and presumably all the copywriting tools that rely on it) is much better than I am at giving me a checklist of touchpoints to hit.
The article you posted doesn't really support calling him "outright anti-trans". From the article you used as support:

Twitter’s modified policy is a step back for the platform, especially when Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube don’t even maintain the same protections for trans people that Twitter once had. Last year, GLAAD gave each of these platforms fairly low scores in regard to LGBTQ safety, privacy, and expression but noted that Twitter and TikTok were the only two platforms out of the bunch that had specific policies against deadnaming and misgendering trans users.

So now the only major platform that has this policy is TikTok...famously 'woke' (silly term these days) companies like Google don't even seem to have this policy. The policy was only in place for the past few years at Twitter, so this in fact seems like its just a reversion to the mean rather than some kind of direct attack on trans rights.
I suspect some are using it as a more reasonable-sounding proxy for “fuck being around coworkers who cannot shut up for 30 seconds in their open plan office, cannot correctly apply deodorant in the morning, want to talk non-stop to give the appearance of working, and want to commute to some shitty suburban business park with no facilities anywhere near by”.

I’d honestly rather work in a dog park than that kind of environment.
I had spammers uploading torrents in mass for a good while. With auto approval of torrents I spent a lot of time logging in to fight them.

Eventually I found an addon to help bulk remove torrents, but even that was a hassle. Eventually in the later years I turned on email verification, which didn't actually work (I never bothered to figure out why) and if someone really wanted to upload, they would post on the forum to which I would then manually verify them.
Yup!

I have used imgur numerous times thru the years when posting Stack Overflow questions, new feature pull requests on open source apps, troubleshooting reddit posts etc. Very sad to think all that visual context will be lost.
A generic default image would easily solve the problem, though.
Fail?

So much success, the fact that it got off the ground and is providing tonnes of data to ground control.

Agile rocket building ftw.
> What good is freedom of thought and speech if one cannot exercise it?

Says the person questioning why other people are utilizing their freedom of thought and speech.
No, it was a sub-nominal flight, but a successful test. (assuming they got the data they needed in order to learn from it, which is a pretty safe assumption)
Happens in 100% of Starship launches
Congrats on hitting the test goal.

The double speak is funny though:

> SpaceX call this a rapid unscheduled disassembly

What would a regularly-paced scheduled disassembly look like?
Yes. With 33 engines of a new design losing 1 or 2 would be pretty unremarkable and worth adding to the graphic. Losing 5 is getting into "needs improvement" and I'm sure SpaceX will be looking hard at the data they collected to see what about the design or ignition sequence they can improve next time.
FGC-9; everybody in Europe who wants a gun can trivially have it within a week without interacting with the criminal element or buying regulated components. That goes for modern ammunition too.
The irony is that we're all "fail fast" until something actually fails fast.
This past week in the US there have been several stories about people who were shot after ringing a doorbell or pulling into someone's driveway. Reducing the number of guns means that these people would not be able to enact this type of senseless violence.

It would also certainly cut down on the numbers of toddlers shooting their siblings.
> I probably drank the old american koolaid and have not yet had my sip of the new one.

The "old american koolaid" is to let your neighbor do whatever they please as long as "it neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg" (Thomas Jefferson). Trans people aren't hurting anybody, and it's a travesty that one of our major political parties has made demonizing trans people into a wedge issue as part of a manufactured culture war.
As somebody who's never become good at KSP, I've debated whether or not to get KSP2. Does it have better training so that you have clues how to get some of the initial things done so you can build up in career mode better?

They absolutely are. "Right" is just a name for "freedom or protection some people decided they like a whole bunch". There's no absolute, certain standard for what they are. Absent laws and/or norms protecting them, they do not, in any meaningful sense, exist.

(yes, yes, I'm aware of the concept of "natural rights", I've read the Second Treatise, blah blah—it's a pretty idea, but it's weak, to put it mildly)
At scale, you would need to factor in the durability of the media. [0] suggests that some types of bluray disks can last 20 to 50 years. Hard drives typically struggle to last 10 years. So if you need to replace hard drives 5x more than bluray disks, maybe it changes the economics.

That's a random study I found on Google, of course, I'm sure Meta has more accurate data on that.

Besides, you need to build the same kind of redundancy in both cases, so that shouldn't influence the choice.

Their company writes blog spam used for "SEO" for scam products. It's completely reasonable to expect ChatGPT to increase output, because the prompt could be as simple as "Give me a 2500 word blog post in an optimistic tone of voice about human muscle development, and reference the sources used on Wikipedia. During the article link to X at least 6 times." and voila, one customer's scam product down. Repeat 50x.
> Are you doing this on all topics related to Musk?

My 10 year history on hacker news is there for all to see... why ask a rhetorical question, when you can just look.
> If you're not with us, you're against us
I was thinking this as well... It spiraled seemingly forever without failing, while they hoovered telemetry off of it, until pressing the big red button. Massive fault tolerance at play. SpaceX is awesome in so many ways. Thanks Elon.
> What good is freedom of thought and speech if one cannot exercise it?

I'm pretty sure that calling out a celebrity billionaire's transphobia is exercising one's freedom of speech.
There is no such laws in Sweden.
That's the one! My favorite memory of SF was getting cheesesteaks and kandykakes from there and eating them on ocean beach while watching the whales breach at sunset with my wife. Perfect day.
> What good is freedom of thought and speech if one cannot exercise it?

This is what I describe as the “worse is better” model of freedom. As if the only way we can measure freedom is by counting how many extremely awful things occur in the world and concluding that more awful things is a clear indicator that we have more freedom. Is this a uniquely American concept?
Like Simon said, it's a great language calculator!

Also, adapting to its quirks is important. Using the responses from both you and it to scaffold the final response is more effective than giving only one shot
Not just misinformed. How petty and I dunno, plain _evil_ do you have to be?
This is a step into making humanity reaching the stars. Is seeing a guy you hate fail really all that matters?
He has his freedom of speech! So did the person you're replying to. That's what the old American freedom of speech meant: you can say dumb things and other people can say that what you said was dumb.

The new koolaid is "I can say dumb things and if anybody calls me on it, I'm being oppressed." That has nothing to do with freedom of speech, there's no government here.

Sounds like you've been drinking plenty of the new koolaid.
I don’t think that’s a uniquely American problem at all. When you go to a doctor with a problem, the only tool they have available to help you is medical treatments. If you go to a doctor with a psychological problem, or a lifestyle problem, the only way they can help you is with a medical treatment. Any place you go in the world you’ll find huge amounts of mental health or lifestyle-related physical health problems, and they’ll either be untreated, or medicated. With the only factor that influences the ration between those two being how economically developed that place is. The only thing unique about the US is the amount of money put into healthcare. But they’re pumping the kids full of drugs in Australia too…

The actual concept was actually pretty decent (even kerbals would say so!), except somehow it got cut down to the point of uselessness.
> something getting inside the interstage

What does this mean?
Recommend adding a couch stretch to the routine. It's basically the silver bullet for most hip flexor issues (which may manifest as lower back pain)
Will give this a try. My lower back pain has been awful lately.
Some people treat anthropomorphized _companies_ with that loyalty and love, so it doesn’t seem weird at all.
Truly! RIP brave Kerbins.
This is going to be incredibly damaging to forums, in the same way that Photobucket's deletions were. Old forum posts are becoming a ghost town of broken image links.
