Maybe we should honor the women who were real astronauts.
From left to right are Shannon W. Lucid, Margaret Rhea Seddon, Kathryn D. Sullivan, Judith A. Resnik, Anna L. Fisher, and Sally K. Ride. NASA selected all six women as their first female astronaut candidates in January 1978.

There’s already a growing body of evidence that heavy use of LLMs (which I refuse to call it Artificial Intelligence because they ain’t) impacts critical thinking and language skills. And now there’s this. No thanks.

Something Bizarre Is Happening to People Who Use ChatGPT a Lot
ChatGPT "power users," or those who use it the most, are becoming dependent upon — or even addicted to — the chatbot.

Let's debunk this whole "space is hard" mantra.
Looking at all NASA-led missions launched since 2000, only 4 out of ~60 missions experienced total failures.
Two of these were due to issues with the commercial launch vehicle, & two were spacecraft issues.
That is a *93% success rate.* (1/n)

It is perhaps timely to remember that France left NATO's military command structure in 1966 and pursued an independent French nuclear deterrent - a direct result of the doubts of whether the US dominance in NATO would meet key obligations in the face of a Soviet invasion of Europe.

Everyone saying not to pay your Federal taxes, is a idiot. That means YOU will get the penalties and interest assessed at the MARKET rate. Extensions are ONLY for the paperwork. Unless you absolutely know 100% that you are getting a refund, you will have to write a check by April 15.

Move fast and break things is not the motto you want to adopt at a regulatory system that, as challenged as it may seem at times, is extremely functional.

For me and my industry peers, this is so close to home. While we have insight into crowded airspace and complex operations, we know just as much as you: it’s tragic. Take care when asking crew. Hot takes from anyone, even, but especially, the president, right now is premature and disgusting.

This is an absolutely nonsensical headline: private companies aren't subject to presidential executive orders--they're not part of the government! There's no "compliance" going on here because there's nothing for Google to comply with; this is corporate kowtowing, plain and simple.
