It’s not about “forgiveness”, it’s about whether the mistakes can be undone.
Consider you accidentally insult somebody. That can be undone by apologizing.
What if you murder somebody? That can never be undone.

so … why isn’t living with your parents as a teenager considered “human trafficking” then?
the mass increase due to relativistic effects is really really small, significantly smaller than the weight loss due to fuel consumption, which btw is described by the Rocket Equation.
oh yeah my dad told me his mechatronics thesis was about building a robot that has legs and moves like a spider … so, almost centipede. he told me they also looked at centipedes just for reference.
yeah i know, that’s why i said “lol” :D
what i don’t get is why people are focusing on the amount of ecosystem that SpaceX displaces while completely ignoring that literally anything else also replaces ecosystem. City? used to be forest? Parking lot? used to be prairie. Suburbs? you guessed it
everything was an ecosystem before modern humans got there. i don’t get the particular outrage over SpaceX.
My conspiracy is that Musk thinks he’ll get to Mars more likely if he aligns with the Republicans, and he acts so super stupid on purpose to get along with them.
… and it has landed him a top position in government so far
the comments about slashing social security are definitely unhinged IMHO (so i’m definitely not supporting that) but i’m european and we have more appreciation for social safety nets i would say. america is more individualist, so maybe that’s just “america being america”.
SpaceX? They got billions to get us to Mars. They never go beyond the super easy part in rocketry, low earth orbit.
lol
Typical bullshit article that has no idea what it’s talking about (the drawings are nice though):
Copying from Wikipedia:
Key provisions of the Outer Space Treaty include prohibiting nuclear weapons in space; limiting the use of the Moon and all other celestial bodies to peaceful purposes; establishing that space shall be freely explored and used by all nations; and precluding any country from claiming sovereignty over outer space or any celestial body.
Mars settlement passes all of these checks.
Furthermore, people want to go to Mars, not the Moon. Bringing up the moon is only confusing.
tldr
no often today we don’t know what the code is actually doing
yes this is an important problem
no nobody really seems to take it as serious as it should be taken today
no i’m not gonna change that over night
oh they do, it’s a great invention after all.
batteries didn’t make much sense in the past because where do you take the electricity from? combusting coal to generate electricity to charge your car is not much better than just combusting oil directly. now, we have solar. that changes everything.
If you’re rich and invested in MSCI World ETF (literally the most generic mixture of stocks available) 10 years ago, on Mar 28, 2015, the stocks practically doubled (+ 107%) since then. That makes an average annual increase by 7.5%, considering how exponential growth works. (Formula is: (2.07^(1/10) - 1)*100%)

This means that rich people’s assets literally proliferate by 7.5% annually, without lifting a finger. That means, it’s not their “hard earned fruits” or their “hard work”. They’re literally lazying around and their wealth increases by that amount.
I think it’s fair to tax that. Skim the unfair proliferation of wealth. Introduce a wealth tax, make billionaires pay 7.5% of their total wealth as an annual tax.
or just encrypt it, in case you have the technical knowledge to do that reliably.
Public transport (with acceptable intervals) is only (practically) feasible in densely populated areas, like cities and maybe the immediate surroundings. There’s no chance every tiny village in the middle of bumfuck nowhere is gonna have even a resemblance of acceptable public transport. You’d need a driver to drive around all day where most trips are completely or mostly empty.
people in america don’t want to ride with public transport because they’re incredibly isolationistic and have a fear of other human beings; so they prefer to drive within “their own 4 walls”, in their own chassis. It’s really about psychology much more than practical feasibility.
Evolution took a billion years too, so it’s kinda fair to say “well, vehicles need some training”.
Nothing really stuck with me i would say as i’m more careful what “advice” or “feedback” i actually take to heart; but there have been many incidents where people have blamed me for shit.
i don’t really want to recount them here because they are personal.
