I've been getting publicity for a relatively new Master Program in Space Economy by the Space Economy Institute. I have not been able to find any references on the internet about it, I was thinking about applying to it but now I'm wondering if it's legit. Any idea?

I didn't feel blown away reading the page...

I'm a future astronaut with Virgin Galactic and have been learning a lot about the industry through their future astronaut events, and everyone you meet through that, their companies, etc.

They have a NXTGen astronaut program: https://www.virgingalactic.com/nxtgen-sign-up Where I imagine you'd learn a lot!

I'm concerned about the quality of an article written by someone admitting they don't know how to listen to FM in their car.

I am very annoyed by the decision of the EPA to start cracking down, because it's made it impossible to import parts for my track/race cars, even though it's completely legal to do so. Like many things, the market for enthusiasts supported availability and reasonable pricing for the more hardcore enthusiasts.

From TFA: “The DOJ’s suit comes after the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said that emissions defeat devices would no longer be a top priority for the agency.”

So literally the EPA did the exact opposite of your complaint. Or you meant to say DOJ.

> In an open letter 'liked' by hundreds of colleagues, two employees criticised the fossil fuel giant’s lack of leadership in the energy transition.

Shell has 93,000 employees.

Also “open” — an internal board, which Reuters was shown. So… not open.

is there a transcript somewhere? (I'd ask if one can download .srt's or the equivalent from YT, but their auto-generated subs leave much to be desired)

Oddly enough there was a different recent submission to HN a few below this for me... here it is: https://youtubetranscript.com/?v=GNhlNSLQAFE&t=1

>they say having a shit job with a shit boss is a shitty situation they should not have to put up with. And, frankly, that seems reasonable.

The sidebar literally advocates for abolition of work.

And I’ve read numerous threads where people don’t agree with that. I think most are more concerned about their shitty situation no longer being tolerated, but most still believe they should work for someone.

Are these supposed to climb steep hills? I feel like, in my city/neighborhood, a regular motorcycle or scooter would serve me better.

But if I lived in Paris or Amsterdam...

Most: no.

I have this: https://lunacycle.com/sur-ron-x-bike-black-edition/

The Sur Ron has a 7000W motor. I weigh 260lbs. It climbs hills. At 30-40mph and is awesome!

Guy: electric bikes take up a lot less space than a car! Guy buys 50 electric bikes.

Yes. And the article explicitly states “over 60” ;)
