Well done to all the people who've worked on #BlueOrigin #NewGlenn. Shame about the booster landing, but impressive achievement.
Especially considering they haven't gone through the 20 years of (lucrative) cyclical development and learnings of F9, FH, Dragon, Crew Dragon and Starship.

If anything it undermines SpaceX's philosophy of "it's fine to smash some rockets for the bigger picture".

Lots of us mocked "Gradually, ferociously" but existing critics of Musk will have a field day.

The challenge is to choose 20 books that have stayed with you or influenced you. One book per day for 20 days, in no particular order. No explanations, no reviews, just covers.

Number 1: the book that changed my life.

Front cover of Knowledge of Angels y Jill Paton Walsh. Image shows a painting of several angels and possibly the devil fighting in the sky.

We had a preview of this book in the summer at the Goethe Institute. Great little story with acommpanying activities. theguardian.com/education/2024

1/ X's algorithm was changed in mid-July 2024 to systematically boost Republican-leaning accounts and Elon Musk's own account following his endorsement of Donald Trump, according to a newly released computational study of engagement from the Queensland University of Technology (QUT). ⬇️

@decodingtrolls Sadly, like ultra processed food, memes are easy to obtain and consume. Proper nutritious knowledge needs deeper reading. Whilst we can't know all the things across recorded history, it's always worth digging a little deeper and finding some reliable sources.

⚡️1/ Naming Ruschian disinfo - what mythology teaches us - a quick 🧵Countering Ruschist disinfo requires that we discern the meanings in disinfo vectors, like Tweets, and in memes, like the unknowingly repeated Ruschist disinfo meanings.

Siri, show me physical technical debt

(We’re clearing out at least 30 years’ worth of accumulated cabling under a datacentre raised floor. Lots of voice copper, co-ax (voice and Ethernet), serial cables and even some AppleTalk!)

@WiteWulf Very similar to machine rooms here, especially where they are shared between several Departments, central services.

Caution: It's also alarming when you consider the poles that hold the floor up, and that they were rated for 1994 computing infrastructure. Take too many squares out at once and the sheer strength could be compromised by a room full of 42U racks.

"Trump owes his victory in great part to low-propensity voters of all races, including young men, and those voters don’t necessarily form their views based on mainstream media reporting. Rather, far too many are stuck in an online social media bubble where they are delivered a steady diet of rightwing propaganda."

At our local Rememberance Day service, Heron quintet played this lovely piece. Seems to be a rare arrangement.

6/10 We’re in this bizarre situation where the people actually challenging norms—trans people, queer folks, anyone even slightly outside the “normal” box—are the ones facing down all the backlash.
