High radiation, can’t dissipate heat, not instantly serviceable. I struggle to think of a worse application for a space station.

Well maybe a convenience store.

Ok Druid you will use your full movement, ok, and Monk you are now… that can’t be right… 400 feet away?!

SpaceX is not that guy only. Loads of good people work there achieving epic things. Things Musk does not have the ability to make uncool include flying space skyscrapers being caught by giant robots after having flung a 100 ton space ship / firework over the Caribbean. It’s just not possible. The whole thing is mind blowing every time.

Who pays for their servers?

Oh interesting, it does feel like one of his.

If we have to have gender-specific pronouns, sure. While well-intentioned, that approach will never be perfect, it’s STILL categorising people into smaller and smaller groupings in contexts where categorisation is unnecessary. We’re jumping through linguistic loops so complicated that we need cue-cards for, when we could just use gender-neutral pronouns universally.

Bespoke pronouns are also only a “solution” in English, which (mostly) has no gender-specific suffixes for nouns. In the spirit of inclusivity German has recently misguidedly settled on just repeating the noun with male and female suffixes, “I have to go to the hairdresser or hairdresseress”. Unarguably more quantitatively inclusive, this grammatical monstrosity is also more severely excluding people that fit in neither category. The answer isn’t “everyone should additionally specify their own suffixes so we can list off more variations” but rather to stop caring what gender cuts your hair altogether. Hairdresser can be a gender-neutral word. Here’s to them.

Are you saying that despite not getting you high it’s the primary cause of acute liver failure in the world, over alcoholism, because it’s such a good placebo?

Intuitive!

NixOS is for people who have accidentally uninstalled 90% of their system because they didn’t pay attention to what other packages depend on the thing they were uninstalling and were desperately looking for a an undo button.

This video is silly, mirrors flip front and back. You can definitely arrange a word and a mirror so you see one flipped and one not.

Patent it.

Were you carrying around 1000 camp supplies, 8 looted swords, 35 potions, and 2 suits of plate armour by any chance? ;)

I think autocorrect broke your joke.

You are making sense, logically. That’s how it should be: If you are a better candidate, you should get the interview.

But picture this nonsense scenario that I think is nevertheless illustrative of the problem: the hiring manager is overworked, at the end of their 12 hour shift filling in doing odds and ends because they’re understaffed and the guests need service, a kid threw up in the pool, there is a standards compliance issue regarding detergent and it might be illegal to wash the sheets with this, the breakfast delivery was cancelled and in six hours there will be hungry guests, and there are 30 CVs to read while they’re on hold talking with an emergency industrial bakery.

Those CVs are not getting the attention they deserve. The job won’t be going to the best candidate. The job will go to whoever seems most acceptable of the 5 CVs they managed to read before the croissants got ordered and they’re off to their next emergency.
