@Brian_Sauve@CollinMadsen This is interesting. I generally lump that phenomena into the category of "loving the world"... Never considered it a feature before, worth thinking about.
The Orteig Prize put Lindbergh across the Atlantic and ignited the airline age. The Kremer Prize produced human-powered flight. The Ansari XPRIZE opened private spaceflight.

This is going to be exciting!
MIT just built an AI that can control your body.
It can move your fingers, make you play piano, even if you donβt know the song!
AI decides the hand movement. Wrist pads send signals to your muscles, so your fingers move even if you donβt know how
I want every foreigner visiting America for the World Cup to realize this is 100% legal.
And every town in the USA is filled with patriots who have armories like this. Every block, actually.
This is why we will never be conquered and are awesome πΊπΈ
@AuronMacintyre@haymes_joshua Rush pointed this out long ago, the Left doesn't understand American Exeptionalism. Like children railing against a concept they only know by name but have never bothered to learn what it even is.
@thewardoll Many have a mistaken view of God. He is not good, in that we measure Him. He is the source of all goodness. The fullness of every good thing.
Beauty is beautiful because He is beauty.
Truth is truthful because it points to Him.
Every good thing you have ever seen points to Him.
@peterrhague K, so if the mountain extends over the horizon, is it still a mountain? Like at what point does it just become an odd shaped planet instead of a spherical planet with a huge mountain?
@AJA_Cortes File this in the drawer of "lessons you must continuously relearn". It all fades by default, we must keep reestablishing what we already know.

@HackingDave Power and compute are coming in space... if not following spacex closely, scale is lost. Not a super heavy lift vehicle, a super heavy lift fleet that will be launching daily in like 18 months.
Basically within 5 yrs most compute will be primary in orbit.
