they actually used less fuel than calculated to get into their desired orbit, which extended the potential serviceable life of the thing by years, if i’m not mistaken i’m with you and even more excited for instruments coming online in the next decade or so that are uniquely designed for studying exoplanets (JWST itself being optimized for studying early galaxies in infrared) i wager we will know fairly conclusively whether we’re alone in the Milky Way in the next 20 years…statistically, odds should be good that we aren’t given that our galaxy is super old

There's self-centered ambition and there's ambition trying to improve things in the world for others. They can be either, or, or anywhere in-between. Drive is good, screwing over everyone and everything that stands between you and your goals is bad. Gotta work with the world around you. Gotta have direction, but flow. So yes, there is virtue in purposeful ambition, not much in blind ambition.

i watched a documentary about the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) today this thing is a complete marvel of engineering, but the wildest thing about it is that the launch and deployment consisted of at least 344 distinct single points of failure, any of which could have caused the entire mission to fail as this elaborate apparatus precisely unfurled and calibrated itself in space they went 344 for 344…absolutely mind-boggling (and even the engineers themselves acknowledge there was a lot of luck at play here)

Full-sized frames are back! 1.Casts with one frame will now always show the full frame. 2. We previously collapsed based on following and a few other rules. 3. Should be simpler to understand now.

We don’t allow allowances to be locked. The Degen vault is currently only on Base, but we’ll be bringing it to the Degen chain at some point.
