It isn't clear from the document that the App uses more data than most of it's type. 20 meg/per hour seems likely to be on par or even a bit less than browsing facebook mobile for the same amount of time. The trouble seems to

Between small boats, and drones, boats are more immediately available. Given the fact that the threat is ongoing, it seems wise to employ boats for now.

Rolls Royce claims the engines perform within the specs they were given. Sounds like the issue may not be with the contractor.

Compared to the widespread sweeps that have been going on in Turkey post-coup attempt I'm confused about why these two cases are of particular note? What am I missing here?

So far the success rate is better than even Elon was predicting, which is a really good sign. Biggest unknown now is the cost and reliability of doing a reflight on a used core.

They aren't TV hosts, they are engineers - I think it's pretty neat how they man the hosting crew with people who actually work on the rockets.

there are several customers who've expressed interest in being the first to use a reused core. It's likely the first re launch will be a commercial customer.

Ambitious in it's actual design certainly. It arguably never achieved much of that ambition though, at least in regards to reusability cost savings.

Probably, though I doubt they will until the get more data. That's the real goldmine here, nobody has ever been in the position to really study a first stage that's been to orbit and back before SpaceX started doing this. I imagin

It really depends on which end of the transaction you are talking about. If you are willing to insulate the job seeker from the broken stuff then you've 'fixed' that half of the problem from their perspective. In a perfect wo

I'm not sure you actually know how insurance schemes work.

In a historical sense, things are only called philosophy until they become a science. Not so much in modern times, but certainly during the early years of philosophy.

Valve doesn't seem interested in a monopoly, after all a lot of the Rift tech started AT Valve.

Somehow they will still manage to make sure it corners poorly too.

Your comment probably got downvotes because saying things like "This will probably get downvoted" is considered bad etiquette here. Re: usefulness of HAM radio - it's not really 'useful' in the developed world, but

by TrevorJ 10y ago
That may or may not be true (CB radio isn't licensed and there's still not much interest in it), but I think the cons far outweigh the pros there.

Some of the youngest guys in my class were Rally racers who competed on really long remote courses and needed some bulletproof communication devices for emergencies.

I am certainly a layman when it comes to the sciences, and I had no problem passing the cert. Best thing to do is to check with local clubs, often there will be weekend or evening classes (only a few hours total) that you can take which wil

Would be interesting to see if they could reduce the temporal noise without compromising the overall effect.

Life under the Ancien Regime had some clear parallels to modern times in America superficially, but there were clear differences too. Pre-revolutionary France was not at all modernized compared to the rest of their neighbors for one thing,

This country is starting to look way too much like pre-revolutionary France, and that's bad for everyone .

Why should I have to spend any of my time on that shit instead of doing the work I have to do? I'm not a set of eyeballs for MS to sell. That shit might fly on Facebook or other free services, but the OS is a productivity enabler and

by TrevorJ 10y ago
The thing that grinds my gears is that MS cleary does not think people use Windows to do real work any more. None of this shit flies in an environment where you are billing hourly and need to be in control of your own software/hardware

And in the real world, no one would use that service. You aren't wrong though, that would be the way to do it if you wanted it to be secure.

Looking at other people's layouts did a ton for me. Epic has some killer example projects you should check out.

ten thousand dollars a year isn't going to really do anything but enable people to remain in minimum wage jobs though.

Eh, everyone knows with certainty that everyone else defecates. Almost everyone would be embarrassed to do it in public.
