> For its Moon lander bid, SpaceX put forward its reusable Starship spacecraft, which is designed to carry large crews and cargo for deep space voyages, and land upright both on Earth and other celestial bodies.

> Prototypes of the vessel are currently being put through their paces at the company's south Texas facility, though all four versions that have so far attempted test flights have exploded.

I could be wrong, but I watched a test flight of Starship a few weeks ago that didn't explode. Am I crazy?

Honestly I don’t think they’re too strict here. If you don’t have a criminal record I’d say just be pleasant and she’ll be fine. Hope it goes well though!

You watch the news too much

I’m in Turkey and I decided to get the 1 year residency so that I have a home base I know I can be in if everywhere else closes their borders

You scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not you could, you didn't stop to think if you should!

If you’re working on a professional project as a freelancer, something to consider is the ease with which you can transfer ownership of your project to another developer. I can’t say which is better, rust or go, but just wanted to mention this consideration

I think it’s crowd sourced answers with our help. Looked up a common one and it wasn’t there. Added it to help, of course

Also when it comes to hyper partisan issues I’m honestly not confident that information can be smoothed out to arrive at something resembling the truth. If anything I would expect those topics to become an amalgamation of facts which are easily interpreted in any way. “Person says X” well obviously it means “A” but 2 sentences later says “Y” so obviously means “B” then in the context of the whole paragraph the meaning is clearly “C” but because of the climate around that time the implication could mean “D” or oppositely “E”.

Basically anything political can be manipulated and twisted to suit whatever ideology a group favors while never misquoting or distorting “facts”. I’m not sure you can ever smooth out bias, and depending on the issue, if one group is more active than the other, it’s just an information and effort war for who can monopolize the page.. and then that’s nothing to say about those who review and decide what edits are more correct/valid. But eh, oh well.

Ha, ha. I read that as “expert sex change” lol

I find that sometimes just talking about whatever pops into your head can make for good springboards into a fun conversation. Example: you’re talking and it stalemates, you look out the window and it’s snowing, so you say “ isn’t it crazy that no two snowflakes are the same?” And then the friend goes “yeah” so then you say “actually it kind of reminds me of people, we are all so similar, and there’s billions of us, but none of us are the same.” And just keep doing stuff like that until you find a new thread of conversation that sticks. When I find conversation hard, I usually notice that I’m second guessing my ideas, and thinking that it’s not worth saying whatever it is I’m thinking, and that’s what kills the convo, not that there’s nothing to say. You’re a complex human with complex thoughts, you’re insanely interesting and if you let your ideas out in a light hearted way, people will want to engage with them. Good luck!
