Google kills Gemini cloud services is the best one. I can't believe I haven't seen that joke until today.

Your title is wrong

The functionality is very much reduced.

Congrats to the Blue Origin team! That's a heck of a milestone (landing it on the second attempt). It will compete more with Falcon Heavy than Starship[1] but it certainly could handle all of the current GEO satellite designs. I'm sure that the NRO will appreciate the larger payload volume as well. Really super glad to see they have hardware that has successfully done all the things. The first step to making it as reliable as other launch platforms. And having a choice for launch services is always a good thing for people buying said launch services.

Notably, from a US policy standpoint, if they successfully become 'lift capability #2' then it's going to be difficult to ULA to continue on.

[1] Although if Starship's lift capacity keeps getting knocked back that might change.

Doesn't ULA use Blue Origin's rocket engines?

Anyone know more about the explosive landing feet anchors at T+9:55?

"This worked great if you were electrifying America in the 1930s, when labor was cheap, materials were subsidized, and the government could strong-arm right-of-way access."

It was good in the moment. The issue is maintaining it without the same cheap labor and materials. PG&E in California is a perfect example. There is no way for them to maintain the grid which is aging and causing fires. We are going to have to switch to a slightly similar regional power generation/storage model.

Hi HN! We built Blue, a voice assistant that can use any app on your phone via a tiny USB-C hardware “hand” we call Bud. Here’s how we went from concept to 100 working units in 55 days for YC Demo Day.

About me: I’m a robotics and product design engineer focused on building thoughtful tools for the world. I hold dozens of patents in hardware and manufacturing, and I care deeply about how things are made and who they’re made for.

For over a decade, I’ve worked across robotics, wearables, and consumer electronics. As one of the first engineers on the Apple Vision Pro, I took it from concept to mass production.

stingrae · 3 months ago
This is very cool. Will Apple allow this app to be deployed on the app store?

A $41K ($46K for AWD) “truck” is absurd. This isn’t a viable option for Americans, at all.
stingrae · 5 months ago
$41k is not an absurd starting price for a truck. Look at f150 prices, starting at 39k.

They arent.

They need probable cause to arrest just like any other law enforcement. If they just arrest you because you're annoying or fake charges. You can sue them for deprivation of rights.

stingrae · 6 months ago
They are, it could be that the vast majority are acting in good faith, but the videos show a very different story. There is also no statement from ICE renouncing bad behavior from their agents.

Also, you are going to have a hard time suing if you are an El Salvadorian prison.
