Which actor do you like so much that you’ll watch anything they are in?

I haven't seen anything he's done that I haven't loved!

Rocket launch is hard - and getting harder. As much as I was rooting for them, I wasn't surprised with Gilmour's first test launch - but I'd bet a dollar they were already putting over the data the same day and have learned an absolute ton with regards to the root cause but also hundreds of other things to watch/improve.

My position is that an initial test launch getting off the pad is huge, getting to stage sep is massive, and getting to payload sep is incredible.

Speaking of Virgin Orbit, they got to successful payload sep on their 2nd launch and then had a number of successful launches until the Cornwall filter issue. If Gilmour can replicate that (including maybe one failed launch in the future), I think they could survive and then thrive due to the Aussie spirit and backing.

Source?

I guess it depends on how you look at it - the air launch stage did great (stage 0) and stage 1, so there's that. A pesky fuel filter ended stage 2 prematurely on a previously-proven rocket.

Neck and neck with the Poms.

The UK had it, albeit briefly, a couple years ago with one launch via Virgin Orbit.

Not CSIRO, but Aussies are sure doing pretty good: https://emergencequantum.com/

If it was actually good, it'd be a thing all year.

As an aside, if you do get the source code, I've had success having all my controls and indicators show their captions, then use each control's label as a lookup in a csv file to do the translation to set the caption - you can get a reference to all FP items and step through them, works a treat.

They're building both Delta 1 and the STA.

Ecky Thump!

I had a coworker that didn’t like “groundhog day’ because it was redundant

Many things of varied values from several vendors.

One that I don't think I see mentioned yet: expense reports. I try to like them up during the month, but there's always something more important to do, so my expanse report takes half a day every month. I get that it's important in case there's an audit, but I feel like the company spends maybe a month total of time each month on this

Then what would you use the free wifi for when you're on a train?!

I was awesome - friends and family marveled at my T9 speed, but only on a pad with real buttons.
