   The 3 RS-25 (1860 kN each)[1] used for the Space Shuttles had 300,000 Gallons of water output per 41 seconds [2] when it launched. On landing, the Falcon Super Heavy used 5 or so [3] of the Raptor Engines (2750 kN each [4]). I'm making

   I only have about 3 YOE, working at a non-tech Fortune 50 in the US and job searching on the side. I’ve sent out over 100 applications and haven’t received a single interview. The only interviews I do get are through LinkedIn recruiters rea

   Call me a betting man, but I'd be willing to bet yet even more money that at least 95% of people don't even know what plane they're getting on during their trip. And of that 5% left, only a handful people would rebook their f

   You're spending an extra 8 hours to marginally (at best) improve safety? I'd be willing to bet good money that you partake in wildly more risky activity (such as driving or even walking down the street). This feels almost like vir

   Besides upload and annotate [1], you can technically create your own models and use that within the Frigate configs already for free ( https://docs.frigate.video/configuration/objects/#custom-mod... ). [1]You could

   I'm currently using Frigate for continuous recording and it's great and I don't feel like I'm missing any features. What are some features that are missing?

   I think the issue is that Bank Accounts also need phone numbers linked to them and it seemed like only one phone number could be tied to an account. Having a secondary phone number used to combat spam also being the sole number tied to a Ba

    I'm guessing they've probably implemented baffles within the tank, but even if there wasn't it shouldn't be too much of an issue. Once they are able to get going and are not stopping quickly for emergencies, they should

    Possibly cost? Offloading unused data to long term cold storage is cheaper than storing on JunoDB and never using it.

    Thanks, I just spent the last 3 hours of my life playing this. I have no idea why it's so addicting, but man do I want to win...

    Given the use case for this drone (medium-high budget media production) it's extremely unlikely that a person is going to be flying this drone without a spotter. Not having support for their own FPV googles on a $17,000 drone is kind o

    Honestly, I don't believe that Walmart has any plans to implement Apple Pay. They already have a mobile payment option in their app which requires an individual account. With a ton of their stores already using self checkout which you

    See if there are any saltwater pools next to you, they still need chlorine, but it looks like the chlorine effect is gentler.

    But that wouldn't make sense. How many people are going to pay the $8 a month while also being OK with ads? I can pay $8 to Hulu and get an AD supported video streaming service, since I can't get the content for free legally. Why

    This is incredible. I honestly don't think I've ever seen someone give away a business worth billions to charity. I wish Patagonia the best!

    The interview was for a startup. I ended up rejecting the offer due to my fear of stability at startups, but it was one of the, if not, best interview i've ever had. The screening stage was great, talked with the recruiter about the jo

    Looks like I could have written that better, I meant to ask what Supabase's plan was to be a better alternative to Firebase, since Supabase is new and has exciting features going for it, while Firebase is old, stable, and has Google ba

    With Supabase being a very similar product to Firebase, with the addition of a self hosted version (something that is hard to profit off of), what is the plan for the future in getting market share from Firebase users? I can see that GraphQ

    I personally feel like daily standups are pretty important, contrary to what some people are commenting. Sure there are teams where they don't have any schedule meetings, but having that morning standup for 15-20 minutes each morning d

    So if I understand correctly, based on the documentation, if someone has the master password and the login url, they can derive all passwords without any 2fa/verification? If so, that seems like a security flaw...

    One thing that always irked me when it came to configurations is that a device is advertised as "starting at $599" but has a bunch of specs like "Up to I9, 64gb of ram, etc.). I understand from a marketing perspective, but it

    That was a confusing point in the article for me. I thought it meant that people doing mental math would tip on average $1 more than a computed option.
