Pfft. Kids.
This is a bit concerning. Any person needs to be replaceable even founders/executive suite.

What concerns me is that after accounting for the drop due to Covid, we have a nearly straight, steadily rising line.

I don’t care whether the metal can be reused or not. The first question is “is this on or near the critical path?” No. No it is not. Therefore the wisdom of reusing materials is moot.

This reminds me of the therapist/grifter a few years back who was peddling a book on making tabletop inclusive for neurodivergent people and made it clear she didn't know any gamers or, and I repeat myself, autists. Biiiiitch we invented the fucking hobby.

I was invited to work on a spacecraft incident investigation. Within minutes I realized I had nothing to add, no new insight. It was not a reusable rocket. An expendable spacecraft is just not part of my wheelhouse. Also, expendables suck and have to be expensive. So many details…
Getting that itch. The itch serial entrepreneurs know. Anyone up for full stack Earth to anywhere reusable rockets? And by anywhere I mean LEO, GEO, Moon, Mars, NEOs, Venus... Every part fully reusable and with aircraft-like operation tempos.
1/ Krugman, like most other midwits, uses data to persuade, not to understand. He sees a graph that proves that "food at home spending" is up 1.2x not 2x, and immediately uses it to demonstrated that "food prices are not up 2x". Let's dig in.

Exploration speed in ACKS has been empirically set to match the speed at which my wife moves while shopping. A simple 60' shopping lane can absolutely require 10 - 20 minutes to traverse depending on encumbrance. Clearance aisles (e.g. traps) can take even longer. #realism

Having brain teasers pop up while scrolling the feed is like having a drill sergeant randomly yell “DROP AND GIVE ME 20!”, and I feel a little lazy if I don’t actually give them a try.

@Robotbeat (says someone who's been the human pin-cushion a few times) I hate the phrase "being too early is indistinguishable from being wrong" but unfortunately it has some truth to it.
@Robotbeat Unfortunately being right before everyone else isn't a guarantee of success. In my experience it's a great recipe for taking all the arrows in your back so you can watch your friends step over your corpse to success after the mainstream has caught up to your "brilliance".
@dmasten I'm somewhat not surprised to be honest. When you financialize an engineering company, you'd expect inertia to carry things for a while, with problems building up over time.
@dmasten why on earth did whoever made that graph include 2024?
