The unofficial emails are an absolute disgrace and should be a huge concern to anyone with even a modicum of security sense.
Training the entire government that it’s totally normal to receive official orders from external domains is nightmare fuel for anyone who has had to think about organizational security.
Right, a little bit different. If only she instead hired randos without security clearance and gave them full access to systems containing classified info. Now that would have been no problem.
She was advised to do so by the outgoing (Republican) SoS because departmental systems were so creaky that vital emails often fell through the cracks. There's zero evidence that anything was ever compromised by her running a server in her own very secure home.
Haven't you ever wondered why the Trump administration, once in office, never made any move to prosecute her?
>Several hundred employees have been impacted with messages being sent from an ‘exec order’ Microsoft email address, not an official .gov email address
I noticed the exact same thing and the fact it didn't pick up my login session in safari... which for me raised some alarm bells that this "could" be a nice ploy to grab my google credentials.
For this reason it was a hard no, I proceeded no further and deleted the app.
I introduced a similar thing at my work place and it works (there's a few points where people forget or sometimes there's cross over) we added some state to it to so in the context of triaging bugs.
we reacted to the original message with:
ticks - to indicate the bug or issue was accepted and we had enough information to raise the problem/issue into our tracking system
cross - to indicate not a bug
jiraicon - to indicate a ticket had been raised (and linked into the thread) all the information so far would be in the ticket and further comms hence forth would be in the ticket system.
in the channels we did this in, messages would be pinned till they were given the tick/cross so people knew what needed triage and what didn't (treated triage as a team sport, whomever got to it first saved the rest from having to dive into it, unless they so wished)
I don't really understand this workflow, why does this need to happen in Slack at all, when you already use Jira? Wouldn't it be far easier to raise a ticket in Jira directly, have all the info there, and then mark is as a bug/no bug?
They solved this problem with F9 too, with their ride share program.
Starship will make it even cheaper to deliver small payloads too (you'll likely have to wait for enough payload to get lined up to make sense financially), however with the need to continuously deploy starlink satelites, they'll probably fill loads as required with them to fill starship up.
You raise a good point: taking multiple payloads could help bridge this gap. But I still believe it'll take quite awhile to match the economics of an F9 launch (assuming that payload is within the launch parameters).
Falcon Heavy is again evidence of this. We're not seeing ride-sharing on FH. We're seeing large (primarily military) payloads that F9 just can't do.
Not necessarily. I'm not a rocket scientist or economist, but it is possible that FH is less cost-effective per kg on LEO than F9. You need to accelerate three boosters to several thousand km/hour and then to decelerate them to 0 km/hour at ground level. And then to do all the maintaining on those boosters, which takes about a month. Does it allow for 3x payload?
There are other potential issues, like a volume: a payload is not just mass, but a volume too. It needs to fit into fairing. Adding two more boosters doesn't increase available volume.

Musk says that he relies on Starship launches to make it work reliably as expected. And yes, I believe that it will take years. Maybe it will be faster than with F9, but not an order of magnitude faster.
Gravity and atmospheric drag does most of the slowing down of those boosters for free. The first stage uses something like 87% of it’s takeoff weight in fuel to get it and the second stage up to speed, but only 0.5% of it’s takeoff weight in fuel to slow down and land at sea.
The economic case for Starship is even better for small payload customers. At the moment if your launching a cubesat from anywhere but the Nanoracks ISS deployment facility attached to the Japanese Kibo module, then one of your launch costs is a PPOD which gets thrown away
These deployers can cost $10000, or even more depending on the specific cubesat size. So when Starship allows small payload aggregators like Spaceflight Inc to recover the PPOD/deployment hardware then it’s going to provide even further cost reductions beyond the simple dollars per unit mass lifted to orbit. The reusable nature of Starship will be a big part of how it changes the economics of space related industries.
what tool would they use to steady the camera frame like that? having little experience with video editing the only way I know of doing it would be getting opencv to track the horizontal line on the back(of the jumper) of the guy who was leading and rotate the frame accordingly, surely there are video apps that do this simply.
It's built into youtube when you upload videos - and it's very good. Easiest way to tell how much it's stabilizing is to notice the way the frame (black rectangle outline) bounces around during the video. A more trained eye will also notice the subtler IS distortions.
site looks good looks like its still going through some polishing.
FYI for the Flash screencasts, if you're going to support mobile devices(with responsive twitter bootstrap) then you might want to consider using html5 video too otherwise you might miss converting visitors to customers.
I like the concept, seems to work pretty solid but i've spotted a bug. Sometimes when you copy an image to paste it into a message, another different image gets copied to the pasteboard.
Still trying to figure out how to replicate it. Will let you know if I do. Btw not bad for a first timer!
Visual studio has jQuery intellisense at least....its "ok" in my estimation. I suspect it will get better over time but for now its a work in progress.
