This has an interesting intersection with Telstar, the first communications satellite: http://eager.io/blog/telstar-and-starfish-prime/

This is not a good look for Kacific. Tonga already had a contract with them to implement satellite internet before the eruption. It seems like their ability to actually deploy their technology was so poor SpaceX can beat them starting from square 1. One of the many ways Starlink will disrupt the best laid plans.

If I understand correctly, what you’re saying is “Go won’t immediately get faster with this release, it will immediately get faster with the next and subsequent releases”. Whether your employer uses generics or not, it’s very likely large parts of the standard library will get rewritten with them soon, and if OP is correct, it will improve the performance greatly of certain operations.

It’s certainly worth evaluating, but if you read the study it says that the risk is 10-20x lower in getting the vaccine vs in getting COVID itself. Assuming you live in a world where COVID is rampant (we do), it sounds like the vaccines are a good call.

The success we’re talking about was an analytical measurement of the antigen response in the body. It wasn’t lack of symptoms which ruled that phase a failure.

If the creator is reading, consider adding “user-select: none;” to the button. On iOS when you hold on it it tries to select the text.

The summary of this thread is that the only complaints anyone has is that it is too hard to get a Model Y or parts for a Model Y, both indicative of just how successful this car is.

It’s fantastic. I have never struggled to fill my time, so a world without a formal job just allows me to spend time on what I care about. At the moment about a third of my time is spent working on mechanical projects and cars. Whatever I imagine I can actually work on and build, and whatever skills I lack I have time to learn!

Another third of my time is spent pursuing paragliding. It’s something I found interesting before, but I just never had the flexibility in my life to take more than a week off work. Now I can live in Colombia for a month at a time, both a great environment and change of pace, and a fantastic way to learn.

The rest of my time I work on a little mini startup. It’s different than what I was doing before because it’s decidedly ‘lifestyle’. No VC money. Just building something I find interesting with people I like. If I don’t want to do something, or I don’t have the time, I simply say that! It’s all the fun of building a product and bringing it to the market with a world less stress.

The most important thing to know is: I didn’t plan any of this. I was so burnt out that thinking of anything I wanted to do was challenging. But after six months of cranking on cars and other mundane projects the world opened in front of me, and I realized all those things I loved doing as a child are still with me.
