I have created "So You Want To Design a Pintle Injector" Hopefully someone who knows almost nothing about designing rocket engines, can pick this up and understand it from beginning to end. Feedback is seriously welcomed! This is my first try at this maxoberg.dev/project_updates…

Really tried to see that Firefly launch from SF, but it just ended up being me trying to catch eye floaters in my vision as I took in a blue sky

Job Application Tracker/CRM

I am applying to jobs. I also dislike applying to jobs and putting myself out there. So I decided to kill two birds with one stone.

Definitely gave me this type of feeling though. But dammit, ai is kinda dumb when you get down to it.

First time hitting a vibe-coding Cursor token cap - Is this something to be proud of? I definitely feel weirdly accomplished

Slow motion photography in black and white can make any rocket injector flow look cool

Managed to grab this pic of the red aurora glow in Colorado before the numbness in my toes forced me to descend the mountain

An internet oddity: A website with no author, credit given, or company, with (as of this post): 497,312 different pages. All created in the last year biologyinsights.com Does anyone have any idea why this exists? Who uses AI to create this and to what end?

Congratulations to Jared Isaacman on his confirmation as NASA Administrator. 🚀 It’s been an honor to help drive @POTUS’ vision for American leadership in space. I wish Jared success as he begins his tenure and leads NASA as we go back to the Moon in 2028 and beat China.

I cannot be trusted with RAM. I will use as much of it as I can unabashedly in any program I use or write Look at this nice nice slope

What do I record with a slow motion camera. Not high definition mind you, but can achieve double your typical smart phone fps along with a global shutter. Higher fps possible with cropped sensor (900+fps)

It *is* a USB 3.2 Device It apparently *is* operating at SuperSpeed (USB 3.2) speeds The 2 cables I have should be rated to USB 3.2 (Unless Microcenter lied to me) And YET, it also reports USB Device speed is HighSpeed (USB 2.0) and runs at USB 2.0 speeds god damnit

this was defaulted to on?? Got a little more throughput, but still not enough

The fix for this was to drop the camera software I was trying to use entirely and create my own python script to actually use the camera at its rated speeds. It just took me 10 hours of troubleshooting to figure that damn detail out There's some buttery smooth 600+fps though

Altman reached out to Stoke Space, in the summer, and the discussions picked up in the fall. Among the proposals was for OpenAI to make a series of equity investments Stoke and end up w/controlling stake. Stoke is working on developing fully reusable rockets, as is SpaceX.
