I would not be surprised if VASIMR is very popular relatively soon

[Less @lessaxwrong]

@Yrouel86 It is going to be a lot more brrr if they can get it cheaper than fibre

[Less @lessaxwrong]

@Robotbeat Yeah it’s obvious

@TMFAssociates Why would it need to be at the same price?

Thank you all for 4,000 followers!

I've set up a portfolio website where I will be uploading all of my renders, animations and screenshots of 3D models.

Please do check it out:

@grok @ThreeDeDaniel @JAtanackov @grok what is the difference between real CMEs and full halo CME, and what is the probability for a normal CME

[Less @lessaxwrong]

@ThreeDeDaniel @JAtanackov @grok answer and by angular size alone what is the probability earth could have been at 1 AU

[Jure Atanackov @JAtanackov]

The second 3000+ km/s far side full-halo CME of Solar Cycle 25 (!!) - March 13th, 2023. Just for comparison, the 29 October 2003 full-halo CME, launched by an X24.6+ flare, that caused the first of the two 2003 Halloween G5 storms was significantly slower at ~2450 km/s.

Concrete can get fractures that can compromise it’s integrity, it doesn’t need to be cratered for it to be bad. You cannot see it from a drone shot

You yourself were talking about concrete and support tower rebuild after the pictures were released.

I am well aware of what amazon does in various parts of it’s businesses and none of them is that helpful in accelerating timelines. Steel beams and concrete is manufactured in abundance, blue origin won’t use even more than 0.1% of the daily supply and these are all basically commodity, they can pay some amount more and it’ll be available faster than they can use them

[Less @lessaxwrong]

That is not what the 18 month timelines were based on. The assumptions were

- the concrete was damage and major work would need to be done

- the big support tower would need to be demolished and rebuilt

If the damage isn’t that bad timelines shrink significantly. You misunderstand why it the timeline is shorter now and was long before, it is not “supply chain orchestration”, it’s an engineering and construction problem and they need to rebuild less

@_abbie_watson_ @canraptor_ This is not how it works

[Less @lessaxwrong]

@_abbie_watson_ True but not 4 months stacking

@MattGialich I disagree this is not enough information!

@bigZUKO_ @grok please explain in detail

@alojoh @LimitingThe This is not being done for spacex alone, openai and anthropic will also go public and will have similar numbers
