Yeah it's a shame that Musk is so inextricably linked with the brand. I'm quite sure SpaceX and Tesla are full of top tier talent and engineering wizards... but have a direct link to a toxic cockwomble that bankrolls them. Shame.
And yet whenever some achievement is made, the headlines are "Musk achieves great feat"

This is absolutely fucked. Bring down the all seeing eye in the sky satelite
"All seeing" except it's using radar to evaluate typography and biomass. What am I missing that makes this "absolutely fucked"?

Don't quote me on this, but I've heard SpaceX itself is pretty good at keeping Musk away from the actually important things. Something about having a team dedicated to keeping him distracted.
Imagine getting a job at SpaceX thinking you're gonna build a moon base and you get put on 'Elon distraction'

Aren't you a tiny blob of typography and biomass yourself?

How did you know? Really though I was looking at the picture in the article which is from similar technology about a decade ago.

Speaking as a layman, I just think it's fuckin' awesome how a big chonky boi can be propelled upwards at Mach Yeet and get casually dropped off in orbit.
Even though Musk is a cunt, I still love watching SpaceX streams to see big bits of metal get put upwards by lots of fire and noise, and then fuckin' land where they started seven or eight minutes later.
Science is fuckin mint, man.
4, 3, 2, 1... Reverse! We have reverse!... And we're turning... Putting it on D....hit the gas pedal... All systems nominal! The vehicle is gaining speed at 25mph. Entering the 5north at 45mph in climbing... 65! We have reached max Q...honey tell the kids what max Q means....kids, maxQ is when the vehicle sees maximum hydrodynamic pressure.
Trying to avoid MECO at all costs until we park.

Impressive that it has the resolution to identify fonts

This first iteration is only capable of identifying serif fonts, still impressive though.

I was so confused when I saw your comment until I reread my own. It really is top notch technology I guess!
