There’s some weird appearances of contemporary art too. Pretty sure Vincent van Gogh works appear in chapterhouse.

Bush coo*

That’s still insanely cheap, went to get actual petrol for the first time in 3 years and it’s about £1.60/l in Scotland.

619 dollars for one oil? I’m guessing it’s 6.19/l (or maybe even gallon? Who knows with these) but wow these are awkward to read.

Yeah it’s a lot easier to eat less calories than it is to burn off that many. 100 calories is like a bag of crisps or so (depends on what) but 100 calories is also about 10 minutes of running which is a lot more work than just eating less. Not that you shouldn’t run but if you’re trying to lose weight it has a much bigger impact to stay at a calorie deficit.

You must have missed the part where they were talking about crater albedo and one of them said 6 7 (0.6-0.7) and the chat went wild. Definitely the most significant part of this whole thing.

What I’m saying is you can’t un-kill someone, everything else up to that point is a lot more reversible if that does end up coming into question. Now I’m not saying the whole experience isn’t going to leave its mark but there’s literally no going back once you’ve made someone dead. It’s one of the bigger issues behind the ethics of the death penalty.

Prison is objectively more reversible too.

You mean the death penalty that they don’t have anymore?

Yeah this isn’t the big milestone mission but it’s nice to see we’re actually doing something more tangible than LEO for once in my lifetime.

The whole goal of these algorithms is that you put an input in and the output it gives out is as close to the most likely to be correct answer as it can be, training is just repeating that process. We’re several years deep into these “most likely” results and sometimes they’re pretty close but usually it’s not quite there because the only guidance they get is from outside.

You aren’t? How does that work? As someone terminally excited by space it’s hard to comprehend someone not.

What about tidal?

Well molten salt batteries are a thing, I’m presuming this is to buffer the output of the solar and that the losses were deemed acceptable given the renewable nature of this.

I mean have you ever tried filming an explosion from less than 100 metres? If you don’t understand it or disagree with it just articulate that instead of condescending the whole thing. Just makes you look bad.

It takes a lot less to launch a rocket from the lunar surface to anywhere in the solar system than from earth. If we ever get manufacturing working on or around the moon then it opens up a lot of possibilities for larger payloads. This means we can send more further and it makes the whole process cheaper.

That’s from the whole of march, I think it was around 760 for that day

Sometimes consuming content that isn’t good can be a way to see just how disagreeable it is. Though admittedly all my consumption of awful content is usually through a third party analysing what went wrong.

Iirc one of the theoretical ways of generating power with fusion is magnetohydrodynamic generators which use the magnetic field created by the plasma to generate an electrical current directly. Still theoretical though…

Yeah looks like I did miss that bit. Still going to recommend stuff though :P. I was definitely reading stuff not intended for kids while I was still in school though so I might have a skewed perspective.
