<p>> After a slew of unplanned explosions<p>Most were expected, when pushing the rocket to its limits to see where it would fail.<p>> the company achieved two sub-orbital missions for its monster rocket - impressive, but still more than 200,000 miles (322,000 km) from the Moon.<p>The test flights are suborbital due to FAA licensing requirements until they are ready to test returning to the launch tower. The role of Starship lander version in Artemis is not to directly launch to the Moon, but act as a shuttle between an orbiting vessel around the Moon and the surface of the Moon. So the comparison in miles is non-sensical.<p>> Acting Administrator Sean Duffy said the company was "behind schedule"<p>SpaceX is planning to test orbital refueling in 2026. It was originally scheduled for late summer of 2025, so not late with more than a couple of months. It is certainly not the slowest cog in the system. Now, it is scheduled for 2027, and SpaceX will likely test in H1 of 2026.<p>> Elon Musk, the boss of SpaceX, fired back: "SpaceX is moving like lightning compared to the rest of the space industry. Moreover, Starship will end up doing the whole Moon mission. Mark my words."<p>SpaceX can completely drop out of the Artemis program and still bring astronauts to the moon earlier than Artemis.<p>---<p>There are also delays with Boeing, Axiom, Lockheed Martin (and Blue Origin although for a different mission).</p>

<p>Hi! Author here.<p>I keep stumbling on teams who are losing time to realise an issue they are experiencing while developing is because there's a new dependency or a migration has to be run on that branch or after pulling new code.<p>run-if-changed allows you to configure a script to be run when a file is changed by switching a branch or pulling new code using Git hooks.<p>I'm looking for more use cases and contributors.<p>What are some of your pain points when developing in a team?
Is there something in your build which is annoying you when you check out another branch?</p>

<p>When Starship starts launching customer satellites, it's possible that even the price for customers would be cheap enough to launch and maintain a LEO constellation. But competing requires massive innovation in cheap and fast production of satellites which are very energy efficient and highly capable. Especially, the technology for starshield protecting against cyber warfare in space and the direct to cell capability. This would be the main reason for not emerging a viable competitor for some time. SpaceX has innovation advantage in the satellites, manufacturing, dishes, base stations, software apart from the launch capability.</p>

<p>Many misleading statements here:<p>1. Semi is not dependent on 4680 batteries. And that's still a minority of the battery mix they use. 4680 form factor is still limited to Cybertruck and some Model Y production.<p>2. Semi has been in initial and testing production, only selling to customers close to the factories and engineers so they could service them quickly, learn and adapt new models.<p>3. More new Semi trucks have been recently delivered to Pepsi and internally to Tesla.<p>4. "On track" compared to previous released information from last few quarters.<p>Semi is still a small part of the business and not as prioritised as it takes a lot to develop a new program for big trucks when the company hasn't been in that niche before. At the same time they are developing various charging solutions with customers and on their routes before they rollout. Still learning from customers and drivers what is the best utilisation for these products.</p>

<p>The bridge could temporarily lift just the 2 ends and traffic could continue slowly under the bridge while the bridge moves ahead. However, it needs to also raise its height for trucks to pass under or alternatively, trucks could be temporarily suspended/rerouted from the road while the bridge moves.</p>
