Selhání při přistání: Čínská opětovně použitelná raketa Nebula-1 tvrdě narazila

Čínští Deep Blue Aerospace prováděli v neděli 22. září letový test raketového stupně pro opakované použití Nebula-1. Let probíhal dobře až do závěrečných okamžiků, kdy selhal řídicí systém, provedl přistávací manévr a vypnul motory, aniž by ale Nebula-1 byla na zemi. Došlo k nárazu, který raketu zdemoloval. http://www.osel.cz/13703-selhani-pri-pristani-cinska-opetovne-pouzitelna-raketa-nebula-1-tvrde-narazila.html

I found my coworker’s OnlyFans account. Do I tell them?

There are certain social media rules we can all agree on: Ghosting a conversation is impolite, and replying “k” to a text is the equivalent of a backhand slap (violent, wrong, and rude). But what about the rest of the rules? When can we really remind someone of our old Venmo request? What happens when someone tries to flirt with you on LinkedIn?

Should you be worried about AI?

I’ve worked in AI for 13 years and I’ve encountered a lot of people worried about it. In my opinion, they are worried about the wrong thing. But their worries generally fall into two categories:
