There’s a chance that Musk has bought himself enough influence to turn conservatives on climate change. I don’t know if I expect it, exactly, but there’s a chance at a scenario where there is at least some progress there.
Granted Musk will mostly use it to enrich himself, but if he at least stops then from repealing green subsidies and the like, that’s movement in the right direction.
That’s exactly my point. We are not a democracy where every decision is put to a poll (especially not a poll made by some private group).
We are a representative republic where we elect leaders who are trusted to make decisions on policy in accordance to their beliefs and stated policy positions when they were elected.
If you think we live in an absolute democracy, that’s pretty bold.
Yeah, because foreign policy decisions should definitely be made based on poll numbers.
I don’t like our unconditional support of Israel, but this is a bad take.

For vocalists in Western music traditions, the steps of a major scale (doesn’t matter the key) go by the names Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do instead of just 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 the way most other musicians refer to them.
They are saying that in the song ABC by the Jackson Five, the notes they sing in that relative key when they say “Do Re Mi” are actually “So La Do”
Rhapsody back in the day beat that. You could use All Music Guide info to build amazing custom playlists. Custom options like “Music featuring electric guitar with no vocals made between 1950-1957 with a tempo between 90-120” and it would shoot out a whole playlist
Pretty much just kerosene. So not the best, but not horrible. It just uses LOX and RP-1 (highly refined kerosene) for fuel.
So stupid and fake. Guy in an unbuttoned shirt being the stereotypical trust fund bro. Handheld camera conveniently already running and pointed right at the action. r/whyweretheyfilming
So given the median savings in the USA is about $8000, it would feel like $25 does to most of us.
She’s worth $28 billion. Unfortunately she will miss $100 million like the rest of us would miss $50.
Destin at Smarter Every Day and Steven Mould seem like solid guys, and content similar to Tom Scott if you haven’t seen them.
“lack of experience in the area…”
Boeing dwarfs SpaceX in experience building spacecraft.
Mercury and Gemini spacecraft were both built by the McDonnell Corp. That company merged with the Douglas Aircraft company (which built the 3rd stage of the Saturn V rocket) becoming McDonnell Douglas in 1967, which merged into Boeing in 1997. Boeing itself co-manufactured the space shuttle orbiters with Rockwell.
On paper and judging from experience and history, if you were going to pick a single company to build a spacecraft, it would be them. Not some brand new company run by a space-obsessed software engineer.
Clearly Boeing has huge cultural issues and has for a while.
Just saying if you wanted to go off experience alone, they’re the best there is.
That is a notable change from “we’re just double checking things on the Starliner, which we think we can fix. We expect them to ride it home soon” that has been the message for a long time. Now it’s “we’re looking at all options”.
Or what has been called one of the most historic and tumultuous years of a century (1968)… Yeah.
Now I gotta look up 1973. Never heard it mentioned in this context…
Answer:
That’s what the saying means. It doesn’t mean perfect isn’t good. It means perfect is great, but don’t let it stop good.
They technical don’t make airframes or doors either (and still don’t until their buyout of their supplier goes through).
They did it once, then did it again and not only is it still just a fine, the fine didn’t even go up. Given inflation since then, the fine actually went down in real terms.
That’ll teach them for sure! /s
No doubt it’s a bit different. But it was still splitting and both did have established western boundaries.
