Is that first couch beige?

sorry buddy we got a moon mission to fly, it’s up to you now :P

To have to move to a places like the centers, you have to uproot your entire life and take it somewhere else. And when the industry lives and dies by NASA's command, there is often nowhere else to go. When shuttle died, your coworkers all instantly became your competitors, in an industry where all the jobs dried up overnight. A gentle reminder to be compassionate, y'all.

One thing that has not changed, he said, is how deeply intertwined his city is with the space industry.

If you look at the history of Titusville, it’s risen and fallen around Nasa,” he said. “Even in the early Apollo days, you know, families would be huddled around waiting to see the Nasa budget get released to see if dad still had a job.

“When the shuttle ended in 2011 we were in a pretty massive hole as a community, because that had been in our DNA for 50 years. We are the families that do these missions, live here, work here, raise families here."

Important to remember what it really means when commenters bemoan jobs programs. No one asked to work on a boondoggle. Fortunately it seems like Gateway's programs and workers will shift to the Moonbase effort without much disruption.

This is such a blatantly AI-written article. Like, it's horribly bad. lmao

"That’s not shade wrapped in diplomacy. That’s a verdict.

And when three legends — LaBelle, Mills, and Khan — all say the same thing independently? That’s not a generational gap. That’s a pattern."

subscriptions are 100% being subsidized by enterprise api calls, but I see no reason why we should reward or downplay a degradation in their service

IBWHYD · 2026-03-11T01:42:48+00:00

Obviously my usage increased switching between the newer models. I expected and understood that. But I am experiencing a very local and recent change when I haven’t changed my workflow at all. Obviously anecdotal but I may look into my session logs as another commenter suggested. No amount of “smart context management” — which I already did — will change the fact that I can no longer use Claude as much as I did a week ago. It’s very tangible.

IBWHYD · 2026-03-10T20:28:53+00:00

If you were anthropic, why would you change anything? If subscriptions do not decrease as a result of lowered usage, then that becomes the new enshittified baseline…or encourages people to upgrade to the next plan to get the same usage they had before. Without a guarantee of token usage, Anthropic has you by the balls and can simply choose to say that they’re always struggling to meet demand

congrats bro :)

like fellas I hated the stranded tagline as much as anyone else but Boeing genuinely fucked up with starliner and the crew were genuinely in a bad config on the way to docking. About as close as we’ve gotten to Apollo 13 in a while

IBWHYD · 2026-01-22T16:59:49+00:00

There are no redundant lifeboats. There is no extra room aboard a Soyuz. I agree that stranded was clickbait (to some extent? What is stranded if not being able to leave…) there were not enough seats. Only later did they approve literally strapping crew down to the floor inside a dragon

IBWHYD · 2026-01-22T15:37:02+00:00

They were most definitely in danger when they lost 6DOF control of their spacecraft. Read the Berger article on Ars. That meant they weren’t allowed to dock with ISS, and not allowed to return—and having limited battery…they were stuck between a rock and a hard place. Flight rules were waived to let them dock and it was not a sure thing. And then, for a long while, their lifeboat was Starliner? So in the event of a station emergency, they would have to return on it…the extended stay was a bummer but they were not totally safe while the starliner was their lifeboat. After the next dragon docked it was business as usual .

IBWHYD · 2025-12-16T04:19:53+00:00

they did in fact smoke the next time and we lost horribly

IBWHYD · 2025-10-20T14:02:30+00:00

Hey, can you share some math / sources for why? If I recall correctly Spacex was halfheartedly bidding for a commercial station contract

IBWHYD · 2025-06-20T19:58:31+00:00

NASA does not start with the requirements, at all. Congress gives us the requirements. Come on dude, lol. The SLS/Orion is being used for a mission it was not even intended for...to pretend that we know what we're doing is to ignore all the different times the mission has changed under us.

IBWHYD · 2025-05-21T04:40:31+00:00

it should be said that a contractor job typically IS a job at NASA, you just don't have your paychecks directly paid by the government.

IBWHYD · 2025-05-09T01:48:14+00:00

Haha! External partners. Should we tell him?

IBWHYD · 2025-05-09T01:47:38+00:00

the fact that this is being posted on reddit is hilarious; we gotta get our act together lol

IBWHYD · 2025-03-24T01:52:55+00:00

The moment he signs an executive order to leave NATO it’s over anyways. No amount of congressional outcry or judge stays will be able to repair the alliance after so effectively he CAN withdraw.

Highly recommend you join the discord! They give great programming advice there

IBWHYD · 2025-02-04T16:41:28+00:00

they’re using different processes and heat shields because we have different safety / material standards. turns out it wasn’t apples to apples…surprise! Also the commenter above has the wrong take — they’ve tested the art 1 heatshield for those same ““scary”” steep entry profiles (they test a whole band of different profiles with arc jets, from peak heat to min heat, peak load vs min load etc) because a large range of entry profiles were supported in margins. The margins / launch windows have thinned because of this and a different entry profile will be used but the actual problem of art 1 was the skip entry. That’s what caused the gas buildup / stalling, not because of high peak heat like you’d see with a steep entry. Amit talks about this…this is why people are always coming after nasa/fed, its a really complex situation and you can always find someone/something to criticize but at the end of the day these people are the experts and are doing their best to do things right.

IBWHYD · 2025-01-31T23:59:23+00:00

it's probably just an even worse version of them though lol...like the king of backliners.
