One level got beaten since the time of writing — but don't worry, I got the highscore back just now.

Bet you can't beat my highscores (you probably can — though I'm first on every level at the time of writing).

"Turns out you can just do things" too weak. I'm beginning to suspect that "just doing things" is the only way that things can be done.

@edwards345 Bonus: Red dots are if the whole year had the same cadence as the last 10 launches

Falcon 9 & Heavy cadence vs date in 2024, and predicted total launches based on avg up to that point in the year. They recovered valiantly from the 4 gaps, though not all the way. @edwards345 Nicely done!

This is in response to people saying LLMs are not as good as a good therapist. But actually, in some ways, LLMs help in ways that even very good therapists can't. And yes, very good therapists help in ways that LLMs can't, but that's not in question for most people.

No substitute for human connection, and LLMs are an alien artifact. but I can actually 'journal' while I'm right in the middle of an emotion, and don't have to filter for acceptable social stuff, or having 'the same issue' 3x in a row. And then the reflection comes and it helps.

Didn't get all that many votes yet but damn, so many of you have switch as a second choice? This way we'll never get something sane 😭.

Ranked choice voting, what's your first _and second_ preference? If you can't have permanent winter time for example, would you rather keep switching every half a year, or would you settle for perm summer time?.(Pls retweet to get a good sample size! I have like 3 followers.).

Depends a bit on the floor, but "silent enough to hear a pin drop" isn't _that_ silent. They're clearly audible.

If @SpaceX had launched the whole year with the same cadence as the last 10 launches, they would've been on track to launch 228 falcons this year.
