For this kind of comparison you have to treat CDU/CSU as a single party. They're always counted as one in national polls. It is very confusing and misleading to treat them separately in this kind of national comparison.

A simple error like that should be caught before you fill the rocket with methane and liquid oxygen. If a simple error gets through to this point your procedures are bad, which is a big problem for a complex rocket with many parts that coul

The earlier Starship tests looked more promising. But when it looked like they were making real progress it got much worse again with Starship V2. I like the idea of hardware-rich development, but it seems they might have fiddled too much h

I absolutely do think that self-driving cars will save many lives in the long run. But I also think it is entirely fair to focus on the big, visible mistakes right now. This is a major failure, failing to observe a stop sign and a parked sc

I don't see why Tesla would deserve the benefit of the doubt here. We cannot know how well the actual Taxi software will work, I think it is fair to extrapolate from the parts we can observe.

I don't really know enough about this, but what would you expect the pilots to do with that control if they don't have any thrust? Unless there was a suitable landing spot very, very close I don't see what they could do even

All the conflict of interest stuff is just a giant smokescreen. Kennedy is anti-Vaccine, he might sometimes pretend to not be againt vaccines but that is just misdirection. He's going to sow doubt about vaccines, he already removed vac

That is a major issue with Starfield, but it also felt like Bethesda missed the improvements happening in other games in the last decade or so. Many games now are much more cinematic in their storytelling, often with full motion capture. A

One part of the government apparently wants to simply destroy all institutions involved in scientific research. The other half wants to promote their pet ideas, no matter how unscientific they are. They're coming for the vaccines now,

It will take time for these effect to manifest. Conferences are organized quite far in advance, so most conferences this year and part of next year would likely not be able to change locations anyway. But because they are planned in advance

My impression is also that they are worse at C# than some other languages. In autocomplete mode in particular it is very easy to cause the AI tools to write terrible async code. If you start some autocomplete but didn't put an await in

I suspect that people saying this are avoiding to make broad conclusions based only on the AI tools that exist right now at this moment. So they leave a lot of room for the next versions to improve. Maybe too much room, but it's hard t

As the article mentions, this is part of a 55% cut in budget. So this is not a reorganization but a cut to research funding of at least half. It's potentially an even harsher cut as grants are only part of the budget and they might hav

Kennedy already knows the answer, this is just a pretense to justify his unscientific views. No real scientific research on a topic like this can be done on that insane timeline (until September). And of course he put a well-known crank in

It is a lot more than 15% cuts. The latest numbers I saw about grant approvals were something like only half of the number of approved grants compared to the same timeframe last year. On top of that you have the cap of indirect costs at 15%

They're not saving money so far, they have been spending more money than the government spent in 2024. And in those cases where they will spend less they also did enormous damage, e.g. cancelling clinical trials midway through. This is
