The must-see documentary on the horrors of October 7th. I’ve never been a huge Sharyl Sandberg fan, but kudos to her.

How anyone can imagine that Israel can allow Hamas to remain in power after this boggles my mind.

What’s new on ship 30 (and possibly 29 as well).
[Thursday-morning update]
Meanwhile, over at NASA, the agency seems peeved at its Inspector General, as Artemis delays continue to seem inevitable.
There was never any prospect of a serious human lunar program from NASA until it is allowed to end its dependence on SLS/Orion.
With all the current insanity on campus, it’s worth noting that today is Victims of Communism Day.
No, it’s not a vote for “decency.”
NASA still doesn’t understand the root cause.
Once SpaceX works out the heat shield problems on Starship, it won’t really matter.
But the idiot protesters are too ill-educated to listen.
Meanwhile, punish the professors, not the students.
Why not both?
…is a key to a longer, healthier life.
I’m not surprised. If it’s less than four or five flights, I’ll always take stairs, rather than an elevator, if I can, both because it’s better for me, and I don’t like waiting for elevators. I occasionally beat the people in the elevator.
But more importantly, given my relative lack of opportunities for elevator versus stairs, our house is built upside down. That is, the living area is upstairs, and bedrooms are upstairs. The front door is at the top of a long outside staircase, and the first thing we do in the morning, generally, is to go upstairs to the kitchen. We probably do those stairs dozens of times a day, given that my office is downstairs, and we are both retired/working from home.
The house design has the additional benefit that it’s better for sleeping, because the downstairs bedrooms are cooler than upstairs, even when we have skylights open in the living room.
This is huge if true. Apparently, the government shipped pallets of marked classified documents to Mar a Lago, then raided the place, “found” them, charged Trump, and covered up what they did. If the judge hadn’t ordered documents to be unredacted, we’d never have known. She seems like a hero of the Republic to me.
Thoughts on the nature of student revolutions. TL;DR: They end in totalitarianism.
