If photon hitting a surface can impart momentum, does generating photons also impart momentum? Like, if you put a solar powered laser pointer in space, would it move?

I assume these companies being sued follow standard procedure, which is that everything freezes the moment a lawsuit starts. It’s pretty much a guarantee that these companies halt spending, let alone even communicate, with X

I don’t often actively root for tech to fail. Even if it’s something g dumb, it can pave the road for something down the road. However, I’m here for the failure of this because it’s been so nebulous.

I don’t know how to explain it, but this kind of feels like when people were trying to make products where the main hook was blockchain and they seemed to have worked backwards from the tech to a product to the problem being the last thing considered.

As far as I can tell, the only advantage this thing has that a smarter smart watch can provide is taking photos and videos. So maybe there is something there that is worth exploring. Who knows, maybe if apple or Google released this with robust integration and a reasonable price, maybe it could have some potential to have a use case. Maybe GoPro might want to explore the form factor? All that said, none of the things that I think have potential has nothing to do with AI which is what they think is feature #1.

This guy comes across to me as someone with major new guy syndrome. Saw and heard things but lacked the technical knowledge and context to be able to actually understand what it was.

Guess that wasn’t good enough

In June, the FAA announced it will require a secondary barrier between the passenger cabin and cockpit of new commercial planes that are manufactured starting in the summer of 2025.

That was at the end of the article. Not sure why but that pisses me off. Probably cause it seems purely like an act based out of fear rathe than in response to any threat/weakness

From my understanding, the most capable spy satellites are either in geostationary orbit or polar orbits.

• Geo orbit gets you constant survalance but in limited areas

• Polar orbit gets you almost anywhere but only periodic survalance while you wait for the orbit to process.

So this can be good for getting somewhere you don’t typically monitor in real time or to get quicker more real time info on a target.

Also, a big threat the government is worried about right now is the physical saftey of space assets. If someone launches a space weapon and takes out a spy satellite, I can see how the government would want a good fallback

Wonder if AI deciding to destroy humanity isn’t our own fault cause we all talk about how it would be. We gave it the ammo it trained on to kill us

Because Reddit is an addictive pattern. I’m still getting used to post-Reddit life. It’s been very very similar to quitting smoking for me. It’s been genuinely disruptive to my life. I get why people just want to maintain the status quo on their personal lives rather than figure out how to move forward
