Better than most of Andy Weir’s books. Even tho bob is a bit of a Mary Sue.
Very much enjoyed the whole series.


Don’t discard a good technique cause it can be implemented poorly.


Someone in their 30’s will significantly change their worldview over the next 50+ years.
More than anything else, the church wants stability. If you elect someone in the last part of their life, you’ll have a much better idea of what ideology their entire papacy is going to be formed under.
If electing a pope was only for 4, 10, or even 20 years, it would be more reasonable to elect a younger pope, but as it is a lifetime appointment, someone older is always going to be a more conservative option.


But cocaine is a rich white guy drug, so it’s perfectly fine!


Smoke detectors that use replaceable batteries are illegal in some places already.
Basically a modern smoke detector should have a non-replacable, 10 year sealed battery, and be discarded when it’s dead. The rest of the detector goes bad after that so it’s better to just have it all die at the same time.


Walked a friend through a build a month or so ago and actually ended up being cheaper buying from Frame.Work instead of from anywhere else at the time.
Probably saw one mouse was paired and unpaired one and paired the other one, assuming it fixed the issue…


Because they apparently aren’t married, or even together.


You need two coordinating thrusts to raise orbit. Worst case it goes up slightly before going even lower and it burns up faster.
Love it. Great work, you obviously spent a lot of time and care on this project.


Universe Today is a great source for space science, is 100% ad free, and has a robust RSS feed.


Why not Gee-IMP?


How many events did you also forget, but don’t have any reason to even think of it again?


At this point it would be weird if you didn’t.


Trump doesn’t personally fill the SNAP accounts, and Trump doesn’t personally manage the money.
Start charging the employees with violating court orders.


People move to Texas cause they don’t have an income tax. Then they get hit hard by the property taxes.
Where do they think the government gets its money? They have to pay for the roads, schools, fire departments…
Save a buck here just to spend it there.


No, you can’t EASILY do that. You could spend a ton of research to design a machine, but you’d never get anyone to sign off that the design was proper
You would also need a SKILLED technician to operate such a machine, and that would require someone with medical training to do so. The vast majority of people who spend significant time and money getting that training wouldn’t use it to kill people.
So now you’re left with someone who wants to kill people, designing a machine with no oversight, run by someone who wants to kill people, with little or no training. That’s literally what’s happening now, and is the reason that people are looking for alternatives.
The point is, if the certificate gets stolen, there’s no GOOD mechanism for marking it bad.
If your password gets stolen, only two entities need to be told it’s invalid. You and the website the password is for.
If an SSL certificate is stolen, everyone who would potentially use the website need to know, and they need to know before they try to contact the website. SSL certificate revocation is a very difficult communication problem, and it’s mostly ignored by browsers because of the major performance issues it brings having to double check SSL certs with a third party.
