>the most obvious starlink answer is rejected

my take is
to have 2 or 4 starlinks sats 2 on each side in between (money isnt the problem) you have thousands of repeaters on a hardened box connected via fiber optic using pv and a small battery to account for the eclipses

as for the protocol i would have used ipv4 with a bigger mtu or a much faster dtn

In this particular example we discussed structuring function calls manually vs delegating this to external system that sequences them according to your specification, the principle behind the second approach is:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inversion_of_control

IoC is one of the main principles of DI.

What you gain from delegating the calling of functions to an ECS system is performance
What you lose is direct control over when you're calling functions
In 99% of cases this isn't desirable yet ECS makes it the default

That hinges entirely upon the assumption that NASA today is more advanced and more competent than 60s NASA. The opposite is true.

Hitler conscripted Wernher von Braun from the rocket club,

Nasa’s rocket were not working, so NASA stole him from Hitler.

When NASA questioned him, he cooperated, but still their rockets did not work. So they put him in charge, and then their rockets worked.

And then he retired, and their rockets slowly stopped working.

Government cannot do technology except it buys, steals, or conscripts from the private sector.

Realistically speaking, China can get human to moon by 2027. Lanyue (HLS equivalent) and mengzhou (orion equivalent) only need one more test which is an unmanned orbit and landing which China has already done multiple times with other missions successfully. Meanwhile the US lander is still in prototyping phase. The moon race is quite literally over.

Recently I had a reference visit at one of our customers that deals with industrial automation, think programming PLCs and what not
there I had opportunity to ask about their job and one team, two guys to be exact, were developing logic for some smelting machine, I asked them how do they test it to make sure their solutions are working/are optimal. It turns out they do NOTHING in terms of developing logic itself, they just implement whatever requirements their customer sends them.
They literally have a fucking PDF of some graphical sequence algorithm, like those you learn on day 0 of CS and they just translate that already step-based logic to step-based blocks in PLCs
and it takes them a fucking month, PDF with 40-50 pages where each page is just a big rectangle with some step definitions and it takes two of them a month to implement it an that's not even including tests, which by the way are the most retarded manual busy work imaginable since they have to manually go through the procedure and test if everything works as stated, they don't even test for illegal input states or what-if-something-goes-wrong scenarios

Is life really that easy in PLC land?

I was a PLC programmer (and electrical project manager) and I have to say those guys are retarded.
Everything we did at my work was tested and the logic was all made by hand, unless the client really wanted to use some kind of standardised logic they already had. It was not unusual for very complex machines that had very tight timing requirements and extremely low cycle times to be programmed with plenty of direct accesses to memory, pointers a plenty, etc.
And the testing was firstly virtual and then on the machines themselves.
Sometimes we had to do everything in two weeks.
The focus is on security and not doing the job well too, it’s much worse if a machine kills someone than if it simply works badly, by the way.
I got out because of the pay.

PLCs are the way they are because they can have a lifecycle of decades and customers will pay the PLC premium to know they can get spare parts in 30 years. A single standalone piece of equipment can be simple to replace with a raspberry pi or aruduino, but those levels of PLCs cost like 400 bucks and often have free software. Often you can go completely analog with relay control at that level but PLCs are just simpler to install and troubleshoot. PLCs have a whole ecosystem of motor controllers, sensors, robots, etc that can be integrated seamlessly enough that the price tag makes sense. Its the same reason chinkshit PLCs are rare in the US despite being cheap and available.

Pure PLC programmers are actually pretty rare, I spend most of my time dealing with the non PLC parts of the machines and on integration with the SCADA system.

I make less than the real programmers I know that got in before 2020 but more than the ones that got in after that and are flipping burgers

macfags don't look for performance because it comes as standard especially in the higher tier macs. it's hard to describe in words because it should be the baseline, and it's bizarre that when i get an idea i can whip out the mac and have desktop performance anytime anywhere to do whatever.
for me the "computer room" became homogenized with the outside and with a mac u can compute wherever u want
the main issue with apple is that it makes u gay like all the other fags using it

This year's Debian Project Leadership election has only ONE candidate and it's a Pajeeta (Sruthi Chandran):
>She is inactive on the mailing lists, and her Salsa profile is private so we can't even see what her coding contributions are.
>She's run for DPL 4 times before; lost each time
>Her entire platform is just about diversity and bitching about cis males
>She intends to formally incorporate Debian in the US, which would force Debian to introduce age verification
Her only claim to fame is organizing DebConf23, an event where a Debian developer literally fucking DIED because basic health & safety measures were not followed.

A much more qualified candidate was hospitalized during the nomination window and couldn't apply in time, yet she has refused to reopen nominations.

Debian is FUCKED unless the Debian developers all vote NOTA (None of the above).

Sruthi thought Debian was India and that she could give a few non-answers and be done with it. She thought she wasa shoe-in. Her answers are burying her campaign.

>Can you point to recent discussions that you would describe as "spending hours on flame wars on mailing lists with no result"?
She ignored that question, because she made the flamewars on mailing lists up. That's just some rumor she'd heard about second-hand, or thinks that IRC/mailing lists are about flamewars because that's what Indian IT books say.
>>
She even got destroyed on DEI:
>Hi Sruthi,
>I must admit I am a bit clueless about diversity and outreach efforts in other Free Software projects. So I have absolutely no idea about how we are performing compared to others. Clearly we could improve, but are others doing better than we do? Which part of the issue is global to the Free Software world as a whole, and which part is specific to Debian?
>Do you have numbers to share? Are there nice initiatives in other Free Software projects that we should copy?
https://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2026/03/msg00058.html
Her answer:
>I am active only in Debian, so I do not have any solid idea about how things are working out in other Free Software projects. But based on whatever discussions I had with people from other projects, I would say that, while there may be a handful of projects doing good with respect to Diversity, most of the projects are in similar situation as us. Doing a best practice study of all the Free Software projects would a good initiative, something I might be interested in future, but right now, I do not have answers for that.
https://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2026/04/msg00000.html
Anyone who has lived in a third world country like India or worked with Indians can see through her. Of course people like Lucas Nussbaum and Thomas Lange, who is a professor in Köln, would not have experience working with Indians and are taking her presentation and answers at face value.

Go is fine but let's be honest if we are talking purely on language , Kotlin is better.

Go has a tiny runtime and compiles quick, I use it for work all the time, but lacking basic features like explicit nullability, data classes, compiler enforced type exhaustion, default arguments, named arguments, function overloading etc
Makes it shit

All that being said, if I were spinning a new microservice I'd pick go over Kotlin every time because everything else at my company uses go and it just works for the crud garbage we do
