  • That’s an interesting philosophy. You haven’t had people annoyed that you didn’t follow up on something they’ve asked about? I guess my memory at least isn’t good enough to track everything I need to do. Or maybe I could remember but feels like more work/risk than having an external system. I also primarily deal with customer facing stuff so maybe I’d feel different than if I was only dealing with coworkers.





  • Yes, because Elon Musk is such an asshole people can’t seem to help themselves from talking shit, even when it’s misguided.

    They talk about the safety record of Saturn rockets without mentioning that using those isn’t currently possible and then talk about cost per ton of falcon without acknowledging the same design process that created that rocket is being used to make this one. Falcon also had a fair number of explosions before the kinks were worked out and now it’s launching so often that no other company or nation is even close to the same cadence.

    And it sucks! Because I’m interested in space, and SpaceX has done very impressive things, and it’s owned by this fucking jerk.
