I mean, they just put astronauts into orbit a minute ago. What’d you do today?

> I mean, they just put astronauts into orbit a minute ago. What’d you do today?

Well, I'm currently unemployed, and my new job doesn't start for a few more weeks.

So my accomplishments for today include:

* I hung out with my kid before he went out to the school bus

* I made the guacamole for tonight's dinner, because it benefits from sitting in the fridge for a few hours.

* I partially caught up on today's new Crunchyroll episodes. But Konosuba season 3 just isn't amusing me the way the first two seasons did.

* Played "Endless Space 2" and "Age of Darkness: Final Stand" for a while, because I'm short on sleep today and my brain wasn't good for much else.

So, I didn't put anyone in orbit today, but I think I'm doing pretty okay, thank you :)

Nothing constructive to add here… just think it’s awesome you got to hang out with your kid and… I never knew that guac benefits from sitting in the fridge. I always thought it was the opposite.

Which faction are you playing in Endless Space 2, and why is the only reasonable answer always Horatio?

[elthran]

As someone that always makes guacamole immediately before eating it - what do you say changes with the flavour profile by letting it sit?

And they did it a year late and over budget (thankfully they had to absorb the loss), despite submitting a much higher bid than their competitor. So it may not be a total failure since they did eventually launch, but I would hardly call this a success.

JWST was about 15 years late and 20x over budget; would you apply a similar criteria, in which case that would probably be "a total failure"?

Everyone going up and coming down is a success. Everything else is not a success.

If you want to care about the schedule or cost, you’re welcome to.

Getting to orbit is the easy bit. Coming back is the hard part.
