"Should we blame the paperclip-maximizing Slow AI corporations for attempting to escape disruptive capitalism's chaotic vortex? I don't think it matters: I don't deplore this whiny cowardice because it's hypocritical. I hate it because it's a ripoff that screws workers, customers and the environment." - you & me both, @pluralistic

"SpaceX loses Starship mid-flight, but catches booster again after launch" by CNBC / @michaelsheetz - Second successful catch of the enormous 1st stage booster by the tower arms, which many doubted would work until the first catch. 2nd stage lost contact during boost, presumably breaking up, and did not reach orbit. The lost 2nd stage was a new Block 2 model flying for the first time. https://www.cnbc.com/2025/01/16/spacex-launch-starship-flight-seven-starlink-satellite-test.html #SpaceX #Starship🚀 #NewSpace #business

"Getting to orbit is hard. And we did it on our first go." True. They've earned the celebration we're seeing now. New Glenn is about 90% the size of a Saturn V, to point out how big this is. I noticed the shape of the shock diamonds in the rocket thrust looked like consistent stable combustion. Well done! #BlueOrigin #NewGlenn🚀 #NG1 #NewSpace #spacegeek
