My personal opinion is that it fails because SpaceX, like a lot of space startups, embrace a silicon valley coding mindset of ‘move fast and break things’, which results on them spending much more of their time and effort on testing than on design. Make a change, test, make a subsequent change, test. There’s no emphasis on modeling or design, which is problematic for for complex problems that haven’t been solved for 50 years.

You mean like Starship?

Attacking the commenter personally is not helpful. Obviously the whole destruction-of-American-Democracy thing is very different. But let’s look at some salient issues.
As far as the war in Gaza, Biden/ establishment Democrats still stood behind Netanyahu in the wake of Oct 7th. There was only slight functional differences in Biden’s America’s stance on Israel in Gaza and Trump’s.
Less salient, adding a cap on mortgage interest deductions on taxes. Republicans under Trump I did it to punish wealthy coastal (high home value) residents who rented to vote blue. Democrats left it in place because they approved of people who have more home value paying more taxes.
It goes on. Both Democrats and Republicans failed to close Guantanamo, advance voting reform, advance marijuana legalization, end the war in Afghanistan, or take ANY action about climate change for decades, etc.
It’s not every issue mind you, but Democrats are frustratingly adherent to the status quo while the United States has needed meaningful reform for decades.

As someone new to Lemmy, thanks for asking this. I just joined lemm.ee from a Reddit link, and I don’t know all the different flavors of the different domains.

My husband blows on his soup to cool it so it doesn’t burn his mouth … Intelligence is also attractive.

As a heterosexual cis woman, soccer players always have the sexiest physique. One of the only sports I look up for, just to check out the players, not because I ever care.

I think he had to enter into agreements about content in order to get financing from the Saudis and Russians.
