A residential school zone is probably not going to have much extra unoccupied land to install a new roundabout that doesn’t even connect to a new road. And it doesn’t slow them down on the straights between. I love adding roundabouts to my Cities Skyline games, but they do take a fair amount of space.

10 what?

Almost all of those sensors are in the waiting area of the intersection. You have already slowed or stopped before they are able to detect you and trigger a light change.

You’re not going to raise minimum wage by arguing about one job category or one company at a time.

Not sure what we expect for a basic data entry job. These are not programming positions involving years of university education. It’s literally supplying knowledge to the AI which any grown adult already knows.

Except pirating games is actually illegal. And AI art is not. (Even if some people think it should be.)

Those who think pause is an option should read this piece from a Google researcher, titled “We (Google) have no moat, and neither does OpenAI.”

Scott Manley did a video that day showing two streams that started leaking around the time the self destruct should have activated, so the destruct might have been an almost dud that only made a small hole, and the actual destruction didn’t happen until enough leaked out to cause a structural deficiency.

Unfortunately inevitable, if theirs is the swing vote, they would have the most power to demand such compromises.

It’s not the vertical lights. It’s the use of LEDs to create a continuous line rather than a bunch of dots. (And the integration of that line in the styling.)

The track was there first, but they didn’t always have 2 mile trains sitting still there. The usage pattern has changed, so it’s not entirely the town’s fault.

The main problem was the lack of overall thrust, which increased the “gravity loss” (fuel used to fight gravity instead of increase speed) in the early part of flight.

The only kind of 2FA that needs a phone number is SMS, which is subject to several types of attack, but is better than nothing. The Authenticator apps never asks for a phone number, and is measurably superior to SMS 2FA, even with this flaw. But the best option is a U2F or FIDO2 hardware token. Which also never needs…

“A communication issue” is a pretty broad category. Maybe it just fell over and knocked the antenna loose, but that still means a mission failure if it has no way to communicate with us. It was communicating telemetry right up to touchdown, so there’s not a lot of possibilities that allow it to recover if it hasn’t…

Yeah, that’s not happening. The EIP alone will take 10 years.

Especially with several engines unlit, they want to get it over water just in case.

We were technically in La Nina, which is supposedly dry. But the atmospheric river situation flipped that. Now with El Nino expected later this year, which is usually wet, yes we can expect more rain.

SpaceX tends to use latches instead of explosive bolts, because they are aiming at rapid reusability. It’s why they can reuse the Falcon 9 booster and fairings. But that could be a source of failure if the mechanism binds due to unexpected load directions.

There was supposed to be a flick maneuver just before separation, which should have helped the separation and start the flip of the booster for boost back. (I think the booster doesn’t have any RCS, and also wants to use centrifugal motion to keep fuel at the bottom of the tank.) But it always seemed sketchy to me. It…

Until the ship has been actually sold at auction, it is still the duty of the crew to maintain it. Otherwise you risk having a derelict ship sink in your harbor before you finish the legal maneuvers to take it over. When the ship is sold, part of the price will pay the crew’s back pay and their tickets home.
