The same was probably said about photography, moving film, film with sound, computer graphics, etc.

The Roche Limit specifically applies to loose, gravitationally-bound bodies.

Chemically bonded objects e.g. solid rock or a huge diamond could approach closer to the planet without breaking up due to tidal forces, depending on the bulk material strength and melting point.

Firefox now has some simple built-in PDF editing tools. Text and images can be added on top, but existing text can't be modified.

What is this trend of the headline, sub-headline and first sentence being totally identical? It feels like I've been violated somehow, like a mild brainwashing. One less reason to click on the article link.

That could also help tech giants build even larger/more capable models cheaply. Ideally there would be a hard ceiling of LLM capability that even massive amounts of hardware couldn't exceed, allowing inexpensive hardware to catch up.

It would be interesting to see this concept extended into time-lapse video. The day/night segments of the video could shift to the right with the passage of time.

Maybe this is why Apple is focusing so much on health sensors. It's a bit of a stretch but it could be argued that Apple's fall detection and heart rate monitoring is required for the safety of the user.

Project Orion uses a pusher plate mounted on giant springs to spread out the force of each explosion. If the system is designed correctly it should result in constant acceleration.
