That is absolutely false. Firstly, prices are almost universally changed during business hours. You can probably walk down the isle of your local supermarket and find someone with a price / tag labelling machine adjusting one *right now* if you bothered to look.

The register issue is handled quite simply: you keep the lowest of the two prices at checkout and you have zero legal liability. There is no paperwork involved.

I can tell you've never worked retail before. I agree with the rest of your point: this is stuff that was already happening. But the idea that somehow this only happened at night without customers present or that someone is opening themselves to massive fines is just plain absurd.

Only in a general sense. Prices are constantly adjusted. Go to your local store you'll probably find someone *right now* with a price sticker machine. It would take an employee all of 10 minutes to do the entire drinks section, and you can predict a heatwave days in advance. The reality is price adjustments (e.g. during sales) are a constant event for a retail business and the whole digital price tag thing is just a general cost reduction scheme, not some nefarious idea to invent new capitalistic ways to fuck you over.

Irrelevant

Ducking autocorrect, I meant shortage

That is not what I was saying, I was just saying the comparison to Von Braun is nowhere near 1:1 with Musk. Musk has far more power and influence and he has made a number of deliberate choices, particularly in the past 10 years with what to do with it, I think it's fair to be critical of that.

I don't know about a lot of other aerospace CEOs who own a media company and use it to talk about Great Replacement theory. Does that make him worse than a Nazi? Depends which Nazi, but no probably not yet at least.

I just saw a thumbnail for a video about one earlier today. It has a fan in it, too. That way there won't be any storage of oxygen for the fire :)

Until we look at what the specific sites are we can't determine whether the characterization was accurate, or whether they are false flag sites. No firm opinion either way yet.

Amazing milestone aside, the choice of wording here remains spot on. The capabilities of the system has nothing to do with the testing regime. The fact that they had an abundance of caution and focused on other things first has nothing to do with this achievement. They reached orbit. All the other things alone are only relevant if they were building a commercial air-liner.

Reaching orbit is a milestone for a space fairing vehicle, and one that they just reached. Kudos to the team, but they don't need you making excuses for them.

If he's selfish then he's probably a rapeublican

If they can't get a rocket then why are we worried about Iran getting a nuke?

It's also not true. He's a Nazi because he's a Nazi. His parents had Nazi connections, they clearly raised him to be a piece of shit, and he clearly did two Nazi salutes in a row on stage with a face full of hate and then claimed it was about love. Yeah, he loves being a Nazi.

Weirdo was me being nice. When you actually look through the statements he makes on his Twitter feed (which he had the developers add a function where it forces his tweets to everyone's For You pages, author_is_elon) he's actually a bigoted piece of shit. Oh and he plays himself as a pro gamer but has been caught paying people to level him up while he takes credit. The man has tissue paper skin, he spent $44B because people called him names.

So yeah we can stop using weird as a derogatory but most folks aren't going to like what those replacements are.

I do agree with you for the most part except Musk has a couple big strikes against him that those other men did not, while Von Braun may have been a Nazi member when he got the US he basically had to discard that and then he was just a scientist, he did his scientist work and lived his life doing just that, if he still beleieved in Nazi shit from 1946 onwards in the US he had the good sense to keep it to himself. Musk on the other hand is a different beast altogether.

1. He has decided to plant himself firmly in US politics and pick a side and is doing it right now, spending hundreds of millions in the midterm campaigns.
2. He was the unelected head of a quasi-illegal government agency that stripped funds from government programs and done things that has affected many peoples lives, directly.
3. He controls one of the most influential social media companies and has purposefully put his foot on the scales to push his own preferred ideology.

This is not to dismiss anything SpaceX has done, it is an amazing company staffed with hardworking and brilliant people who have done incredible things like this launch right here. Your concept here cuts both ways, SpaceX achievements are not enough to dismiss what Musk has done as a white-supremacist weirdo who has used his wealth and influence to make mine and many other peoples lives worse.

He made the choices to do the above things. If it's up to us to do the right thing what should we do about one of the most powerful men in history consistently doing the wrong things.

It's pretty easy if you whitelist at the harness. Anything else is irresponsible.

If we're going to have an AI safety law, it should include making it clear that people who don't whitelist and the AI gets out should be held accountable for the software's actions. Such a law might be mostly meaningless but at least that is important.

The AI can't access anything on its own so it should be pretty easy to institute a whitelist.

That is not how anything works. That is not what that word means. Until you figure this out you're going to spend a lot of time talking nonsense.
