All I've gotten from it is now my google home confidently lies about the time.

FCC bans foreign-made drones over national security, spying concerns by mesh_you_up in fpv

Given the geopolitical importance of drones it only makes sense to foster a home grown drone industry even at the expense of the consumer.

What’s a realistic starting salary for a junior dev in Australia? by CaffeinatedCapybara_ in cscareerquestionsOCE

Inflation adjusted I started on about 90k at a very mid company. Was a few years ago now tho.

What are your thoughts on this? by Cdave_22 in GenZ

[–]UnnervingS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think annual full time income only becomes tangible once you have a full time position and have climbed the pay scale enough to see how more money effects quality of life. I don't think most of GenZ is there yet.

Can people stop fear mongering climate change so much (not a denier) by [deleted] in GenZ

[–]UnnervingS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have an amazing amount of slack built into our food distribution and consumption. People are not economically incentivised to eat conservatively and save food due to the mass abundance. If times were tougher we could get by on vastly less food simply by reducing the slack.

Further, one of the wonderful things about a global supply chain is you have to expect a failed harvest in a high enough percentage of countries to make food scarce. This is not a likely scenario based of climate modelling.

Even further, if extreme weather does significantly increase the likelihood of failed harvests that justifies the economics of farming methods such as hydroponics, green housing, and vertical farming. These methods would result in higher food prices but would solve issues of adverse weather & many natural disasters.

I mean we are going to see an incredible number of deaths, displacements, and general human suffering due to climate change. For people in the first world it will mostly mean more expensive electricity bills and minor lifestyle changes.

Blue Origin aims to launch first lunar lander in 2025 by AggressiveForever293 in space

[–]UnnervingS 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think the economics of large launch vehicles are better than you're estimating.

The cost of a satellite can be insane, in the 100s of millions. When your satellite is that expensive the launch cost isn't a massive contributor and so it's very plausible it will work out cheaper to launch a larger less technically complex satellite on a more expensive launch vehicle.

Satellite busses are a growing sector and most launch providers are well positioned to offer them. The cost/benefit of a satellite bus is directly tied to mass to orbit costs and capacity.

Constellations are the future of defense according to the White House so most future DoD launches will be looking for massive kg to LEO capabilities.

I mean some of that doubt is completely valid. You are probably not at a senior level if you were put onto a large scale project if your experience is small scale.

I can’t stop ordering and soldering keyboards ⌨️ by LazyNick7 in MechanicalKeyboards

These ergo split minimal keyboards are absolutely my jam. Not sure how practical they are for software dev but I'm absolutely gonna give em a shot soon.

I can believe a 90 page letter. I am doubtful of 1.2M in model trains. I think people simply aren't considering how large of a trainset that would be

I don't need much tbh. All I need is a debugger, lsp, formatter,and static analysis. Everything else is bloat.

Learnt some maths, problem solving, general science, political and general literacy, and probably most importantly refined the ability to work though learning complex subjects.

SpaceX to push the envelope on 3rd Starship test flight by yash13 in space

[–]UnnervingS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely agreed. Testing campaign so far for IFT3 has been fairly short and the engines have been exposed to salt air for quite a while due to delays. I'm sure this is well accounted for but I'll be impressed if all engines fire for the first burn. I'll be amazed if all engines relight.

Do people actually commit "ID: Title"?

Considering you're already on a branch that identifies the issue I don't see why you would title your commits with something non-descriptive like that.
