I was aware of all the points you made here before writing your post but hopefully I can help allay your concerns. The Starlink constellation has already been described as being passively de-conflicted, meaning that, as designed, no Starlin

If cost is of no concern you could build a network of satellites with similar performance to what is available on the ground, the cost will be eye watering however and a waste compared to building it on Earth. The “floor” I reference is in

Starlink’s laser network has been working for well over a year. There’s entire countries in Africa served only by the laser network.

I find your strange glee about this rather off-putting. It’s like you’re actively interested in harming this really valuable new type of service in any way possible. Given that, I find it hard to take at face value anything you’re saying an

You don't get to beat physics just by being in orbit. Transmitting from a cell phone at a distance of 500km (in the best case) versus less than a dozen for a cell tower still makes things difficult. This will never be competitive with

The hardware for this, is as far as we know, not on any of the currently flying satellites. They were explicitly downsized to fit on Falcon 9 and thusly named "v2 mini". Most likely the major thing stripped off was the large foldi

I used an account on one of the uncensored non-algorithmic mastodon sites for a bit. I saw that I don't really want uncensored streamed content (and I cleared my browser cache afterwards). The human brain is not designed to handle that

I think believing random comments off of hacker news without verification or source makes questionable sense. The name "X" isn't unique (which is part of the problem with it) as you're exactly discovering.

This is a great answer if the thing you’re building isn’t innovative. If it’s just a nodejs storefront site. However it’s a pretty garbage answer if you’re say trying to create a new thing that’s not been seen before.

No, nothing of that sort has happened in the US because the rules for NN haven't changed. It was a created internet hype machine to push more new restrictive rules by acting like chicken little and shouting that the sky was falling.

There's no "previous NN rules". It's the same rules it's always been. The Obama era rules were an attempt to change the status quo.

I don't deny that many other countries may also be missing elements of the presumption of innocence.

by mlindner 3y ago
Did you read the article? The article claims the reverse. That this is not a real problem.

by mlindner 3y ago
You say that, but this doesn't seem like presumption of innocence. A country with a presumption of innocence doesn't take your child away from you without trial.

Or you know, the fastest path between two locations is a straight line. Road networks try to avoid being curvy, often blowing through rock foothills with explosives to maintain that straightness. No conspiracy needed.

You'd want to put them into Low Earth orbit, not on Ceres. We already have a bunch of old soviet nuclear reactors in orbit of the Earth.
