I don't think Elon has any malice towards his own species. I tend to agree with the first comment on the article, re: p(dystopia), where almost all LLM services are currently in play, mostly due to the actions of third party clients.
It would be fantastic to add two simple features: 1) task groups (for example, a project) and 2) drag-and-drop reordering of tasks. Then it would be the only task manager one would need.
I suspect, in a few decades, when the smoke clears and the very latest sub-infrared, stadium-sized space telescope finds fully formed galaxies several billion years "before" the alleged moment of creation, then the astronomical community will finally start to question the logic of prevailing cosmological theory, from the ground up.
The big bang was first postulated by an agent of the vatican, and scientists raised in any religious context tend to generate experiments that confirm their beliefs.
The opening sentence of this article is 100% wrong. Hubble was a good scientist and correctly made no assumptions regarding his observations that objects that are further away by parallax are more red shifted.
The assumption that these observations indicated an expanding universe was delivered to us by LeMaitre; if you believe in an expanding universe with a finite age, then give credit where it is due...
I've done low-level work in C++ with SCATS, about a decade ago. It was a challenging API to work with, not fully documented and a lot of strange timing "phenomena".
Shotwell is also awesome, that is certain. They all are. I personally think the first man down the ladder on mars should be a woman, and it would be great if it were her. However, Elon founded that company (and personally hired Shotwell) and has been a continual source of engineering inspiration, for several decades. His direction has pretty much forced the global automotive industry to go electric. People may not like some of the things he tweets, but at the end of the day, he is not going to be a historical footnote.
I was thinking this as well... It spiraled seemingly forever without failing, while they hoovered telemetry off of it, until pressing the big red button. Massive fault tolerance at play. SpaceX is awesome in so many ways. Thanks Elon.
The only real nightmare is that a couple of Jesuits, the same guys who imprisoned Galileo for daring to suggest that the Earth revolves around the sun, came up with the Big Bang theory to explain cosmological redshift, thereby carving out another century of confusion and creationist psychosis under the psychological rule of their lawful-evil overlords in the vatican.
Hah that's great. I can see straight away that I'm going to become a devoted, tunnel vision tired light enthusiast. In fact, i'm tired already. i could use a nap.
