I assume JAXA ordered a fixed number of HTVs, those were built and then the construction line was closed down, probably before 2018. Just ordering another one was probably not possible.

Na gut, wenn die Politikys das so wollen, verzichte ich eben auf jegliches Gendern.

Fremdsprachige Bücher kaufe ich meistens, wenn es bei Thalia mal wieder ~16–20% Rabatt auf fremdsprachige Bücher gibt. Vergleichbare Preise (inklusive Rabatt) habe ich leider anderweitig noch nicht gefunden.

For my phone (almost 7 years old), a thin needle to scrape out all the dust is sufficient. Pressurized air also helps.

Me, a physics educator: “Interesting!” takes note

Dann werden auch Fälle abgedeckt, in denen die Tierprodukte nicht mehr im Endprodukt enthalten sind (z.B. Klärung mit Gelatine)

I think you are reading too much into this. SpaceX has a rather aggressive test program, and the purpose of the tests is not (only) to verify the functionality of the system, but also to learn about the vehicle and involved technologies. At this stage they are pushing the boundaries of the systems capabilities intentionally up to the point where it might start to fail. So if things don’t fail, it only means that they could have pushed harder and squeezed out more performance.

That does not mean that anyone wants Starship to explode. But the objective is clearly not to do a perfect launch, because SpaceX knows that it’s more efficient to make mistakes a few times times and then succeed, instead of spending excessive amounts of time and money one single perfect test launch. This has been communicated very clearly from the very beginning.

This sumarry is erroneously mixing up events from the first and second flight test.

Again, this is an article about German startups. But you claim that this also applies to established mid-sized (usually family-owned) companies that are the opposite of startups: They have successfully saturated the demand for the niche that they are specialized in and neither potential nor interest in expanding further (within their niche, at least). So far, you have provided no justification for your claim, besides ”surely, no one would refuse a lot of money“.

We used to play the game with 2× base game, ~3 or so expansions (including Inns and Cathedrals), and one mini expansion. The game would take several hours, and everyone would just attempt to build a single giant city with a cathedral to get 3 points per city tile.

Scott Manley conjectures that the staging itself worked as intended, but the flip maneuver caused too much stress on the internal plumbing (with all the propellant sloshing around), resulting in a ruptured pipe and burning in the base of the booster.

Not sure where you got that impression from. The booster apparently worked flawlessly during ascent, with all 33 engines working until stage separation. Only 30s into the boostback burn, the AFTS triggered after several engines shut down prematurely. The second stage was deployed successfully, and completed most of its burn, before being lost only around half a minute before scheduled (sub)orbit insertion, around 3km/h short of the required velocity.

For people like me without an X/Twitter account, there is also the spacex.com livestream (which is just the Twitter livestream embedded, but no login is required).

Hmm, I am a bit more confident in the ships abilities (at least for anything between hot staging and SECO).

Anyways, if it gets to the point to initiate hot staging (regardless of the outcome) and the FTS works, it‘s a success. But we should also remember that SN9 landed (crashed) harder than SN8, and SN12 was way worse than the previous three tests. If stage zero is mostly unharmed, the FTS works, and the authorities are not too unhappy, SpaceX has already produced enough hardware for several tests to get it right within the next few months. A good test is a test where you learn a lot, and can try again soon.

Here, the developer explained why development activity decreased:

While it is true that due to private reasons I had to take a bit of a pause of developing FlorisBoard and some time passed with no progress at all, implementing a completely new statistical NLP (Natural Language Processing) provider, or in laymans terms the long-awaited word prediction and spell-checking implementation, is also a huge task which takes a lot of time and trial-error and development time.

You are comparing GitLab (the application) with codeberg.org (the website operated by the codeberg e.V. non-profit). A fair comparison would be gitlab.com (the website operated by GitLab Inc.) with codeberg.org or GitLab (Community Edition or Enterprise Edition) with Forgejo (the application powering codeberg.org). They can be fully self-hosted and are both planning to implement AcivityPub-based federation.
