Unfortunately as long as the US remains the global financial hegemon through the dollar, it'll continue to be the most lucrative place to obtain assets globally.
Double Unfortunately the dollar is probably going to reach 1985 plaza accords levels of strength vs other currencies, but without the global economy working together to help the US like it did before.
An overly strong dollar will likely destroy the US's ability to export goods.
The key is how healthy atproto is outside of bluesky by then
From one post-communist Mixed Socialist-Market economy to another.
I've heard this called "social chaff"
AIs generating false data for you to hide behind may be one of the few good things to come out of the LLM craze.
USB-C is pin-compatible with every single other USB plug, so you should be able to get away with all USBC cables and some adapters for whatever plug type you're trying to plug in.
There are only 3 types of pin sets, USB-C(USB 3.0 pins + 3 extra pins), USB-3.0(USB 1.0 + 5 extra pins) and USB-2.0 and lower. Everything else version wise is the controller on the actual board, not the cable.
Cable-wise you only need one to get the benefit of every other plug on the market.
The falcon rockets are fine but SpaceX has been raising prices on their launches since they won the majority of the contracts.
It used to cost 20 million a seat on the Soyuz until Russia became the sole provider of crewed launches, then they raised the price to about 80 million a seat.
Along comes musk and promises 20 million a seat and low and behold after the contracts are fulfilled they raise the price to 80 million as well.
SpaceX is falling into the same rut every company that becomes a monopoly enters into, and Starship is Musk's personal meme rocket the taxpayer has already shelled out 4 billion for, and there's not even a launch with a working payload.
SpaceX looks cool flashy as shit but they over-promise and under-deliver at the same rate Tesla does. Early success giving way to overconfidence and an inability to deliver on their lofty promises.
I don't see this as a bad thing, maybe china landing people on the moon before us will light a fire on both sides of the aisle to stop fucking around with commercial space contracts.
Over-reliance on SpaceX is causing the same problems to Artemis that over-reliance on Boeing caused the SLS program. A year and a half behind schedule, blown their entire budget on a meme rocket that only potentially lifts half the tonnage promised.
I would not say Johnny Harris is a reliable source
The thesis also elicited that elite overproduction tends to favor political change in the dispossessed elite's favor
It posits most revolutions, including communist revolutions, were pushed by elites who weren't given the station they were promised.
It's your queries + your IP combined with the rest of the data the net collects from you that identifies you.
Nationalizing SpaceX would probably be financially disasteous (seeing as how Musk has to keep pulling money from his businesses to fund twitter, and to buy out Gwynne Shotwell, who was approached by Boeing to be their new CEO in late 2022)
Most people assume Musk's businesses are all on incredibly shaky ground financially and are propped up entirely though hype and speculative credit.
It's good that nobody knows how to use a sextant or a fax machine.
Modern Naval officers are taught to do navigation by starlight for backup purposes. Cause GPS ain't that infallible.
And then right after he posts this fucking video of himself playing Diablo 2 while in a SpaceX launch review meeting:
If nothing else the atproto is pretty great, we're starting to see a proper federated net start opening up around it.
The faith people have that shotwell is insulating SpaceX from Musk's incompetency feels more hopeful than factual.
Anyone else remember when people were making expert systems with scheme and saying that was the end of doctors etc?
Ironically thanks in no small part to Facebook releasing Llama and kind of salting the earth for similar companies trying to create proprietary equivalents.
Nowadays you either have gigantic LLMs with hundreds of billions of parameters like Claude and ChatGPT or you have open Models that are sub-200B.
