The APIs are mostly cross-platform now, and the SoCs are the same, so the main reason you wouldn't want to just copy a Mac app to the iPad is the touch input. If eye tracking is as good as they say, that's a lot closer to a mouse than touch controls.

Each rocket needs 33 for the booster and 6 for the ship, so thats still about 5 weeks for one, or 10 rockets per year. Will need a lot during development since reusability probably won't work 100% of the time for a while. then their stated goal is having a ton of these things launching for mars, etc.

SLS can get about 27 tons to the moon, Falcon Heavy about 20 tons. Sure, redesigning the plans to handle splitting between two launches is time and money, but two falcon heavies is only ~$300M base price. SLS is a waste even without starship.

maybe they have a good relationship with their boss and communicate in ways that work for them and match the world we live in? does your boss still communicate with you in formal memos?

it's your language, do whatever you want. unless you're forcing others to use that language, there's zero moral issue. obviously you could come up with a number of what-ifs where this becomes some monopoly or the de facto standard, but that's not what this is.

one workaround for this is to turn off "Automatically join this network" for your office wifi and disconnect from it, but don't turn off Wifi entirely. That way it can still make direct wifi connections to your other apple devices.

jesus christ, yes. Elon didn't become a billionaire including assets until 2012, well after nasa awarded them the cargo contract and two years after Falcon 9 started launching. Before that, he was barely a millionaire after PayPal and his investments in Tesla and SpaceX. This tax wouldn't have affected him at all until both SpaceX and Tesla were relatively healthy with both Falcon 9 and Model S.

There's a reason CEO's at this level take $1 in salary.

performance cores are physically larger than the efficiency ones, by about 3-4x. I'm sure there are other tradeoffs cache size like too. So would you rather have 32 performance cores and 8 efficiency or 34 performance?

Ignoring the "0.9" satellites, this says 694 out of 713 launched so far are good. Is 97% success bad?

Didn't go too deep into it, but the AMD cpus being compared are different. Anandtech has an AWS-only EPYC 7571 (2 socket, 32 cores each, 2.5ghz), Phoronix has EPYC 7742 (1 socket, 64 cores, 2.2ghz). On top of that, Anandtech is using another AWS ec2 instance and Phoronix is testing on a local machine on bare metal.

Still would be interesting to know what differences caused the gap in results, but their setups were pretty different.

The "source code" zip has the same files as in the repo. No source.

Unless your commute is >50 miles one-way, there's no need to charge at work unless its incredibly convenient. I use a standard wall plug to charge my Model 3 at home and still I'm back to full in under 12 hours after work. If you want to bring that down to 2 hours, you can get an RV plug or a home EV charger installed.

If there's always an open charger at work, go for it, but I think people still overestimate how often they'll need to charge.
