I'm not sure why you're being downvoted when this is entirely correct.

Hughes did not win in the 100Mbps category. you're comparing apples and oranges.

On the other hand, you will not find a Roblox programming book in a used bookstore, and almost certainly not a new bookstore either.

I'm not missing the point. The OP was specifically talking about a k8s bug that wasn't a k8s bug at all. You don't blame Linux for a poorly written application. If the cloud providers choose to add a bunch of uncommon options

I wasn't trying to be snide; I didn't understand what the search had to do with the company. everyone I've met (including on this thread) have high opinions of Yandex, so to each their own.

I'm not sure if you noticed, but the Yandex comment was not about the search, but the software engineering and open source projects coming from them.

the only data I'm aware of has a starlink launch around $25M, and a geo launch is around $70M. if you have newer numbers please point to the source. starship won't be around anyone soon, and they need the money now.

I've elaborated and gotten shouted down enough on the old threads that it's not worth repeating the whole thing. tldr: 1) the beams are not full, so many users are getting unrealistic service since they're not doing traffic s

yes, SpaceX sells launches to anyone who will buy them since it's their only profitable business at the moment. this is why viasat is using them to launch this year or next. I just gave you the cost, and it's public on their websi

SpaceX sells a launch to customers for $50-70M. they make an estimated 10-30% profit, depending on your source and whether the rocket is reused. that is nowhere near an order of magnitude.

It does matter. When you make claims that a small group of people say is not possible and are quickly shouted down, only later to be completely ignored, it matters. It's the same reason FSD coming "next year" for 5 years matt

I literally just said that 16APSK has been used for a decade on Geo satellites. I don't know if you aren't aware what modulation means, but that is the modulation. it does not matter at all what size the gateway or the user antenn

I'm not sure what point you're trying to make here. starlink is also multiple smaller beams within a single beam for frequency reuse. a single beam does not get more bandwidth (in Gbps) than a viasat terminal. > You still need

Ahhhh, so when Elon musk himself says pings will be < 20ms, he's talking about just the satellite segment, right? because obviously everyone pings just the satellite segment. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status&

that's simply not true. they have transponders that should deliver 10Gbps to a single user IF they were willing to pay for both the service and terminal. SpaceX is limited in the exact same way, and their terminals + satellite costs a

I'm not sure why this has to do with network engineers in Redmond. SpaceX doesn't control the rest of the internet, and they don't have enough POPs (and won't) to hit the latency elon promised. there's a reason why

SpaceX started a LEO system as ambitious as SpaceX for its time back in 2013. again, GEO to LEO is not LEO to LEO, and is also not moon to earth. there are no successful examples of 20+Gbps between LEO satellites. The million details is why

it's not an attack, you are always pro starlink and I'm always anti starlink (in a business sense). there's nothing wrong with different opinions. I just don't agree with the comments that the latency, speed, or cost wil
