> "This incident happened, and then they've made a film and they all come out as heroes," he says. "But these two people should never have died in the first place." What should the divers have done to avoid this?

Understood, but the contact link could be maliciously changed through a MITM attack (which would be prevented if the whole domain was accessible through HTTPS).

The average user doesn't have the HTTPS Everywhere plugin, and I assume most that do have it installed are used to dealing with this kind of bad configuration.

Great clarification, thanks.

The current legs aren't flimsy, and they seem way less complicated than a gripper system would have to be. How would a gripper system handle off-centered landings? It would have to catch the falling rocket very quickly because there&#x

I'm really interested to see if and how SpaceX covers the cost of this mission. Is it just a huge R&D/PR write off? Do they sell data/instrument payload slots to NASA or others?

I thought the biggest concern about launch window was journey time? And that would only matter for a crewed mission. I didn't think fuel mattered because it would probably be close for either mission profile- burn to get up to speed, s

This feels really clunky to me, but maybe I'm just not getting it. I'm trying to implement a more automated build/deploy process at my current place of employment and am basically modeling it off of Github's [0], which s

An entire industry can't just lower prices to meet a competitor.

Wow. What was your response?

by ohitsdom 10y ago
What's going on with all the repeated comments for those top ones? I'm not a frequent user of Github issues, is it something automated perhaps gone wrong?

Nominally.

SpaceX just goes into Earth orbit, the team's job is to get to the moon. At least that's what the FAQ says [0]: > [Part-Time Scientists] will join a commercial space flight, e. g. a rocket launch to orbit. From there, their own

This is why I love this industry. He started with a somewhat "bad" idea- even an automated reply would have a really hard chance being the first comment. But, he was able to experiment and tweak the idea to do something pretty coo

That "answer" had no facts and doesn't pass the smell test for me. "Old infrastructure"? Not very specific... "Google+ infrastructure"? Huh? Maybe they mean updating the authorization infrastructure, but e

Musk said as much: "You will see the car very clearly, but some important elements will be added and some will evolve." https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/715309739752747009

How is 1% fairly common? I get that globally, 1% is a lot of people. But that doesn't make it common...

I develop on Windows and use cmd.exe daily (for simpler tasks like running Gulp or PhantomJS). It's hard to overstate how much of an improvement Windows 10 brings to the command line. Keyboard cut and paste, resizing, better text selec

Spotify is the best streaming option IMO. Absolutely great discovery with curated playlists.

I have no idea about financial terms so not commenting on that, but as a product Apple Music doesn't even compare with Spotify. Apple Music is garbage. I made it 3 days into their free 3 month trial before moving on to try Google Play

But why would that theory specifically apply to a smaller device, and not the 6S as well?

Apple's accessibility feature works the same way.

How can they discuss cost and dates when it sounds like they don't even have firm plans on the engine? The promise of Boom is very compelling and good luck to them, but it's just a dream right now. If it was as easy as the founder
