WOW! Remarkable video from 5 miles from the launch pad in Jetty Park. Watch that fireball, and listen around 35 seconds into the video for the massive audible explosion.

SORKIN: Why lay people off at the Post? Why fire people?
BEZOS: Because the Post needs to be a profitable enterprise that stands on its own two feet
SORKIN: Does it? Some people say it should be a trust
BEZOS: Yes. It's a measure of its relevance. If people aren't paying for our product, it's not a good enough product
Jeff Bezos explains to @AOC how billionaires are created: providing at least a billion dollars in value to society -- the opposite of exploitation.
Bezos: "Let me give you a simple example. Let’s say you start a burger joint, and you have 10 employees, and you make a little bit of money.”
SORKIN: “Right.”
Bezos: “Until you have — this is — this just one — one outlet. And by the way, these are the most delicious burgers in the world. People love your burgers, Andrew. And so then, you open a second outlet —”
SORKIN: “Right.”
Bezos: “— and now you’re making a little bit more money, and you have 20 employees. Nd you open a third outlet. By the time you’ve opened a thousand outlets, you are a billionaire.”
SORKIN: “Right.”
Bezos: “And by the way, this is a real life story, it happens all the time, it’s In-N-Out Burger, it’s Raising Cane’s Chicken. At what point did that money all of a sudden become unethical, or it didn’t? There was one outlet, and then there were two, and then there were three. What you’re doing — the way — the way you make a billion dollars, or a hundred million dollars, or 10 million dollars, or anything, is you create a service that people love. And if millions of people choose your service, you’re going to end up with a billion dollars.”
SORKIN: “Right.”
Bezos: “And you can, you know, just try it with a chicken franchise.”
SORKIN: “Do you think though —”
Bezos: “But your chicken has to be good.”
Essa usinagem de 5 eixos é o nível máximo da engenharia moderna. O que parece um movimento simples é na verdade um cálculo constante de trajetórias em micrômetros para evitar que o metal sofra qualquer deformação térmica enquanto é esculpido com essa precisão absurda.
An online blackjack dealer just drew 4 Aces of hearts in a row.
Odds of that happening: 1 in 25 million.
The player's reaction is exactly what you'd expect.
Science confirms you're never truly alone: even on your face.
Millions of microscopic Demodex mites are currently living, feeding, and reproducing in the pores and hair follicles of your skin. These tiny arachnids are a completely normal part of the human body and are found in nearly every adult on Earth.
They prefer areas rich in oil glands, such as the eyelashes, eyebrows, nose, and cheeks. Invisible to the naked eye, Demodex mites spend their entire lives inside your hair follicles and sebaceous glands, surviving on sebum (skin oil) and dead skin cells. They are typically passed between people through close physical contact and become established in most humans by early adulthood.
For the vast majority of people, these mites are completely harmless and form a natural part of the skin’s microbiome. They represent a fascinating symbiotic relationship — quiet, lifelong companions that usually go completely unnoticed. Only in rare cases of overpopulation or immune imbalance do they cause skin issues.
So the next time you feel alone, remember: you’re carrying an entire microscopic ecosystem with you wherever you go.
