wow, seems he still doesn't get it, maybe he's too wealthy to understand. (this article might actually be satire, i just realized) exciting, bold proclamations from the techno-king might be really fun for him - but sound awfully d

exactly. so this policy which was ostensibly about closing a loophole used by big tech is actually a benefit to big tech because it keeps disruptive new competitors from arising. regulatory capture strikes again.

I dunno, man. strikes me as crazy persecuted-genius syndrome. red flags go up from the very start.

no it does not seem likely, that's nonsense. the pentagon likes the spacex product just the way it is

after 5 years then every year is deducting a whole year's worth of R&D - as long as that investment is not too lumpy from year to year you are back where you started

it's the New York Fed. they are not making that mistake.

shh. don't complain too loudly or we'll lose an important tell. python articles using snake illustrations can usually be ignored because they are not clueful. -- python, monty

maybe something like dyslexia but for semantics. I did some searching and couldn't find a term for this.

I can clearly see the object as a bright group of pixels in the IRAS image, but I don't see a damn thing at the spot they hilight in the AKARI image. Like, are they kidding or is this a crap article with the wrong image or something?

I thought it was Hyper-Catan at first. this is cool, i guess, too.

thank you. the catastrophizing that makes up so much of this site is such a dead-end. seems people rather engage in sensational fantasy instead of understanding. cheers

same. and when I learned it was Dan G I didn't accept it entirely. now it's a sort of superposition of them - and mostly a nebulous entity that maintains civil discourse - like something from a Miyazaki movie

Of course you are the best kind of correct but to instead advance the whole discussion I think we can agree that there is no trail of carnage in the wake of waymos leaving only them unscathed. I live in sf. Waymos are far more predictable

you are stating this with confidence but it doesn't sound at all convincing - where are you getting this from? aggressive crowd control measures have been used very often and they almost never result in an armed rebellion. that'

finally someone bringing some reason and evidence to this stupid discussion. thank you

by vpribish 2y ago
Yes, you have my permission to remind people of that - especially the poster I was responding to. The accuracy of the landing was excellent.

not 'similarly structured' but the immediate sibling craft - the same design from the same company. not "eventually toppled" but broke a leg and landed on its side right away. Definitely the next mission will be the same

it's a tax on the hopes of the desperate and depressed. better than leaving it to the criminal underworld, though.

He's not a sincere person to talk to, don't waste your time.
