Sometimes it bees like that.

Some, I assume, are good people.

Right? He should do the same to her.

12 years old is approx 7th grade and thus slightly higher than the average adult reading level.

So, yeah, basically. They are just tacking on extra cringe for that authentic 6th-grade experience.

Having functional GPS in a tunnel would be very nice...as someone who drives through Boston and fucking hates tunnels.

But that's not what I meant by fragile. I meant it can be disrupted/jammed fairly trivially.

Nah the idea is sound. As someone else said, GPS is incredibly fragile. Also very terrestrial...it doesn't work once you leave the atmosphere.

This will probably be another SpaceX grift, but there are alternative technologies that are more resilient to attack. From military/defense perspective (the original reason for GPS), that's pretty important.

Nor do I. Wasn't the Proton CEO kissing the ring a few weeks ago?

Nah there's always less G on the moon.

What if the whole earth, itself, is like, one giant supercomputer, designed to answer the ultimate question, and it's just been running for billions of years?

There's an upper limit to how many bodies you can throw at a task.

9 women won't make a baby in one month.

This is sort of how I got my start as a network engineer in the US, a dozen or so years ago.

There was a large skills gap in the area (still is, IMO)...so the company started hiring people that had no training but had a good technical aptitude with the intent to train them directly.

I know a lot of really great engineers that got their start through that program.

The company has since been bought, and bought again. We've all mostly scattered to the wind. But I still run into some of them every now and then as vendors for my current employer...our current VoIP consultant came from that program, and honestly I don't know anybody who knows IP Telephony better than him.

Poor unidan. Reddit's resident ornitholigist who flew too close to the sun.

I really loved accounts like his...people who were very knowledgeable on a subject and would just show up to drop a ton of knowledge. It satiated my wikihole cravings while also keeping me on Reddit.
