Nice work! Some thoughts: The camera is tilted instead of looking straight down, and my phone needs to be flat to be in the no movement neutral position. This is unpleasant in to ways: How I'm sitting right now makes it hard to look

If you look at the first place (after clear cheaters) time trials for different tracks, you'll see different choices but clear patterns. The main mode of the game has you race a set of four different tracks, and the online mode throws

Hey, this is a good comment. I've only toyed with ML stuff, but I've done a lot with GPUs. I hope you can find my "step back" perspective as valuable I find your up close one. My chief mistake in the above comment was

The way I see, NVidia only has a few advantages ordered from most important to least: 1. Reserved fab space. 2. Highly integrated software. 3. Hardware architecture that exists today. 4. Customer relationships. but all of these aspects are

James Webb underwent a very specific cool down procedure. It included a phase where everything but the instruments were cooled down first, so that water from elsewhere in the spacecraft didn't stick to the instruments. Moving a bit in

I just noticed that I typed "Tim Todd" instead of "Tim Dodd". It's past the edit period so I shall forever live with this shame. In my defense, I was on 5 hours of sleep so I could watch the launch.

My bet on the re-entry failure is that they have really poor attitude control. They definitely had some, but you can also see at different points that the plasma was shifting directions. At T+46, it was doing a spin as the first plasma st

Afaik, when talking about objects large enough that some debris will actually hit the ground, only China intentionally lets their final stage re-enter uncontrolled. Everyone else at least has a plan for controlling re-entry. SpaceX has lo

They might do one to test deployment, but it'd be a throwaway. Their relight test was skipped (not said why), so they still don't have confirmation they can control where Starship re-eneters. Until that happens, it's very u

Grid fins aren't drag devices. They are control surfaces. As long as they are oriented so the fins are aligned with the airflow, they have no effect on orientation. The benefit of not folding them in is one less part that can fail.

Parent's (correct) point is that it isn't a matter of the ascent trajectory. They can't leave the Starship up in orbit, and where it reenters needs to be controlled.

Google Pixels have a "neural core", and they have edge TPUs in addition to their data center TPUs. However Google hardware seems much less poised to take immediate advantage of the AI gold rush.

The first thing you need is a trajectory which is close to orbital for worldwide reach, so check. The second thing you need is protection of the warhead on reentry. Kinda not check, the reentry profile of slowing down as it does makes it a

As a small tip, I have found that the [src] links in the documentation that go to the source to be very useful. Zig prioritizes readability, and often I can find the answer quickly when the documentation is lacking. That said, yeah it&#x27

It's a full removal of LLVM code being linked into the compiler. Currently Zig calls LLVM's API to build with it. Instead the compiler will gain the ability to emit LLVM IR into files. Those files can be passed to a separate in

James Webb's mirror can fit unfolded in Starship. The sun shield is too big though.

The patent abstract indicates it's not a patent on ECS, but a patent on methods to improve performance with ECS systems. The patent was filed in 2018, which is far after ECS was already in commercial use.

No. This is the second integrated flight test. Even if this flight fully meets all of its goals, it won't /really/ be a successful launch by standard measures. Starship (the top part) has successfully completed several subor

As a sample because I can't answer your question more broadly: Peter Higgs proposed the Higgs boson nearly 50 years before winning the Nobel Prize. Just the theory without confirmation wasn't enough. Then when the LHC detected i
