It might also be breach of contract...

Yeah, the internet tends to get very grumpy nowadays when AWS stubs its toe...

Thanks a lot, Xyon! I was worried there for a moment when I saw the domain was up for grabs. I assumed something along the described lines had happened, but there's always the danger that some opportunistic bot is going to take advantage of situations like this and then send you a ransom note...

That permission could only be obtained from the Doctor himself, since it's his license. Haven't seen him around here for some time, but he does drop in every leap year or so... Meanwhile, I am not entirely convinced teaching at a private university really qualifies for "commercial use" in the...

I did a drawing, but no, that was not enough for me to notice it. I'm really, really bad at visualising numerical relations. I saw it on my drawing once I came to the conclusion logically, but alas not before...

Ok, I figured out where I was being stupid! Since a Hohmann transfer always takes half an orbit, the minimum transfer time to transfer to any higher orbit is always greater than current P/2 For the same reason, the maximum amount of time it takes to reach any inner orbit is always smaller than...

EDIT: After some more thinking it through, it turns out that this question makes no sense whatsoever (see my next post). I'm still leaving it here for posterity. In the end, it's just another case of "you don't get how orbits work!". So, I wanted to write a simple limiter for my game, when...

That might be overstating it a bit...

0.14.0 is here! Now with zero-g toilets and other fun upgrades for your sardine can of a spacecraft, and an additional graphic for one of the space stations: There's also a couple of other things, here's the patch notes for a complete list (along with the download link)...

I've never heard that. Not saying it's impossible he said something like this, but it would be fairly obvious that it's BS. Even if it could take it, you heat steel up like that, you don't have the same kind of steel anymore afterwards, I think Musk would have been aware of that.

A bit of another situation. MS didn't test... They thought it would be a good idea to train it by public conversation. Enter 4Chan, and before long it was denying the holocaust and hailing Hitler. It was a neat experiment clearly showing that training might need some oversight, an insight which...

God dammit, I hate being right! In other words, we train them to behave like some rando on twitter. Great idea! 🤦‍♂️

I still haven't figured out what it's supposed to be a safeguard against, other than "developers that didn't pay microsoft a boatload of money"...

"Well, after all, you couldn't trust those! Those were made by the government! Since we're much smarter than the government, it was perfectly reasonable to assume that we could get away with it!"

Now you're giving me a headache...

After skipping a month, I’m back on the dev track, with a… very minor update. This adds graphics for one of the smaller stations, kroonhaven: As well as a couple of codex entries about the busted years. This really starts to go into the meat of the games background history and how the current...

Slight lingual uncertainty: Does something accrete, or is something being accreted? Is it correct to say "It was accreted by natural forces", or should it be "it accreted through natural forces"?

Hmmm... The front fell off... Ah! That makes more sense!

One that got a spray can thrown inside and the lid closed...

So they made it down! "In one piece" might be overstating it a bit, but mostly. Kind of impressive, but the big question is, can they do it again, or was it just lucky? Even if they can do this reliably, we're still a very, very very, very long way away from doing it reliably with the same rocket...
