  • “Im so tired of hearing that getting set up is easier in bluesky, you can do it like this on mastodon”

    “That didn’t set up my account, which includes getting a healthy following base”

    “That’s not the discussion we are having”

    I’m another person but, are you sure it isn’t? Setting up the account is not only creation, it’s all the tweaks until it’s useful for the user. If the user needs connections and searching for them is harder (due to how search works currently with federation) then setting up is indeed harder on Mastodon, which is the point the one you are responding to is reinforcing.


  • A minute long test sounds awfully short for something that will cost millions if it fails.

    Testing in real life when failure is so expensive is less than ideal, any controlled closed environment is better if it means you avoid failure. The very next paragraph from the one I quoted mentions how another rocket spent weeks in testing this specific matter and was delayed because they found the issue.

    I’m paraphrasing what i read some NASA dude said about spaceX, but basically, if they failed as much as spaceX did they would be out of their jobs yesterday. Also, you know who takes the cost of these failures right? It’s the US government through all the expensive spaceX contracts and tax breaks they sign. Each blown rocket makes the contract renewal more expensive.
