right, because art by people who spend hundreds of hours poring over scientific literature and papers is just as inaccurate as an algorithm that doesn't even know how to do hands. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Yes. It's only looking to match patterns based on terms in a dataset it is trained on, it doesn't know anything and does not construct anything with accuracy or logic based on knowledge. It seems pretty hard to explain this to people who insist that it will somehow not do this when it is fundamentally how it functions, let alone when they argue that this is how humans think. Multimodal AI systems like ChatGPT don't really effectively communicate with each other or have any power over each other's functions, in the case of text and image generation, it is essentially just creating a prompt for you based on the text you wrote. Thus you cannot do simple things like have it understand if you want to just adjust the position of the subject of the image. At best it will use tricks to generate something similar like using the same seed with an additional term, but it's still generating an entirely new image. And there's manual masking with in painting but it's the same idea, just limiting where it generates and it uses the unmasked areas as context not dissimilar to something like context aware fill in Photoshop. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |

From the first article cited in the link you posted:

announced it would scale back on Tesla vehicles due to higher collision and damage repair costs for EVs compared to traditional combustion engine vehicles, coupled with low resale value.
" | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |
Do you see that? Those are goal posts moving. Are you a rental car company? rental car companies are generally more sensitive to body repair costs than average consumer, who would get most of those costs covered by insurance. Notice what it doesn't say? it doesn't say maintenance costs are high.
Low resale value was largely because prices of new EVs came down rapidly. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |

One is really made of the right stuff if they have the balls to fly Boeing.
That's courage. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-08-06 |
This vehicle was developed in the Commercial Crew Program, initiated by NASA in 2010.
So development started roughly at the same time as SpaceX's Dragon capsule.
Boeing also got significantly more money from NASA than SpaceX for the development, almost twice the amount.
Also, Boeing was already a huge and well established company, SpaceX was still a pretty small startup in 2010.
So now, 14 years later, SpaceX has already flown 53 astronauts to space while Boeing is just getting started and still having lots of problems.
I would say the only thing that they successfully managed was to grab as much money as possible from this contract. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-08-06 |

I mean I overspend money buying fast food, but I definitely want to spend and eat at the restaurant that makes my sandwich properly and would never go back to the one that keeps messing up my order or dropping my patty on the ground and still serving it to me.
Basically I’m saying if I’m the government it’s my duty to be responsible with my money and choose the right restaurant. I’m going to them for convenience and don’t care how they use the money I pay for my overpriced burger, just give me a good f’n sandwich when it’s handed to me. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-08-06 |
It went perfectly to plan, their plan was not having one and it went exactly as one would have expected in that scenario. You get promotion Yevgeny!! | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-08-06 |
While I agree, I think one of the reasons was that they wanted more than one option to get astronauts and cargo to space.
So while it might be very expensive, NASA has focused on always having several launch providers and now two orbital crew vehicles available. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-08-06 |
Thanks to SpaceX. They entered the market with those contracts while everyone else was doing cost plus. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-08-06 |
I mean, the latest Starship flight was absolutely mind-blowing, but there is also still so much to do.
Like catching the booster and landing Starship, keeping them in orbit for longer periods of time, in-orbit refueling, test landings on Mars, scaling up production and building a lot more ground equipment.
The progress is amazing, but I still think it will take a few more years. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-08-06 |

Not that these aren’t real problems, but it kind of feels like Boeing is getting “Westinghoused” with a bit of a smear campaign online on the space stuff. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-08-06 |
The program started in 2010 with more than just the two companies. Relatively small contracts were signed to give money to create a plan and do sufficient investigation to show it likely could succeed. These contracts were tens of millions of dollars and were given to Boeing, SpaceX, Sierra Space and I think one other.
Then there was a round to do further development and proving of the concepts. This went to 3 companies. Boeing, SpaceX and Sierra Space. These contracts were a little larger.
In 2014 was when the contracts to produce vehicles were approved. These were much larger. About $2B for SpaceX and $4B for Boeing. Nothing for Sierra Space.
That big money was to pay for building the launch systems, hiring people to perform the launch and flights. For Boeing that means they didn't contract for flights from ULA until after that date. Anything expensive to build or buy for either of them they waited until 2014 to do it. So for example whomever Boeing is buying their leaky maneuvering thrusters from that supplier didn't get any money to start designing/adapting them and building them until that date.
Aside from Boeing being slower regardless that's going to slow down Boeing more since SpaceX already knew which thrusters they would use on their capsule. They had an unmanned capsule in 2010 which NASA had been paying them to develop for flights to the ISS since 2006. While Boeing had to wait until getting this contract before being able to pay a supplier to develop a thruster.
BTW, there were two companies for ISS resupply. SpaceX. SpaceX developed Dragon. Kistler filed for bankruptcy only a year later and their contract was re-awarded to OSC. OSC developed the Cygnus resupply ship which has been resupplying ISS (along with Progress) for a decade now. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-08-06 |

A few tiles missing is not a big deal, Shuttle routinely lost that many. The flap still worked so that counts as success plus it’s a simple fix now that there is real data to use for upgrades.
They won’t need 10 launches in a few days. Estimates vary depending on size of crew and vehicle which are TBD but somewhere around 300-500 tons or 5-8 launches. A tanker version that would only need 4 launches has been discussed.The idea is to take enough fuel to get there only. Falcon Super Heavy can lift 64 metric Fuel transfer is not that hard as long as orbits match perfectly. Keeping it super cold will also be a challenge as there is actually a lot of radiant heat from the sun in space which means they probably need to have double wall vacuum insulated tanks.
Basically Your fuel load depends on how long you want to take on the trip with the given payload. Return using a hell of a lot less fuel as only people come back and can be planned for a longer but minimum energy return. They would extract fuel from Mars. The problem with tech can be solved pretty quickly, the bigger problem is the humans, we don’t know how they will do on such a long trip both physically and psychologically. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-08-06 |

Their test launch? That's a little different from astronauts on board. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-08-06 |
The reason why NASA even started those programs? It's that they themselves realized that if they were to build and operate those things, they'll do a *worse* job. They wanted to create a commercial space program because they wanted routine space missions to be cost-efficient.
Back when SpaceX just started out, they made Falcon 9 and Dragon 1 and performed two test flights for NASA, one of them with real cargo delivered to ISS - all for less money than it would cost NASA to perform a single Shuttle flight. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-08-06 |
Lol, it's not a smear campaign.
Boeing planes have either been falling out of the sky or almost falling out of the sky for the past couple years.
Their quality control and safety consideration is clearly quite garbage. Is the Space portion safer? Probably. Does that matter to the average consumer? No.
The criticism is a hell of their own making. Maybe they should sell off the Space portion to someone else, seeing as money is clearly the only thing Boeing actually cares about. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-08-06 |

Starliner gas already reentered twice before. It's never experienced any problems during reentry. It actually accrues less burn damage than Dragon. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-08-06 |
Dragon had multiple little glitches and errors while astronauts were onboard during its first few flights. Some of its problems weren't solved until as late as Crew-3. On Demo-2 Bob and Doug were delayed from docking for an hour or so because Dragon was having some kind of issue with docking. Dragon also experienced glitchy thrusters on Demo-2 and Crew-1. This always, always happens with new crewed spacecraft systems. There has literally never been a new crewed spacecraft that had a flawless maiden voyage. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-08-06 |
It's not solely about Dragon being cheaper. NASA never again wants to go back to having only one provider and having to rely on Soyuz for cadence. Not to mention Starliner can perform in ways that Dragon cannot. Starliner can reboost the ISS while Dragon cannot. Starliner also lands on land. Which is a huge logistical bonus and saves a good amount or refurbishment. Saltwater is murder on the metals that spacecraft are made of. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-08-06 |

I don't think that they actually astroturf, like you seem to be saying. They just pair competent PR work with competent industry work. They put some effort into having all the basic PR performed, their "low risk aversion" development style catches eye, and they have a long list of stunning achievements and exciting developments. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |

I remember when they were in the selection process. They had mockups of some of the submitted designs.
The submissions mentioned how much experience the submitting company had in space flight.
SpaceX was NOT present in that lineup.
Boeing was. They heavily leaned on their history. **_We built the lunar landers!_**
And they had a place of honor inside a building (at KSC). Some of the other contenders were outside. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Not rockets so much as aviation, for example China's Comac launched the C919 last year, a direct competitor to the 737-max. It's in their best interest for the general public to associate Boeing with failure. Not that Boeing has been doing itself any favors lately. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-09-06 |
Boeing is screwing up so badly across the board so maybe they are legit screwing this up. But in airplanes they outsouce 60-70% of the plane. If the same is true for starliner, its probable that great profits are being made by almost all of the subs, leaving Boeing stuck with the losses.
However, in a competent company "creative accounting" can be used to shift costs, legally, or at least arguably legally. And obviously Boeing wants to present that fixed cost failed. Cost plus is a giant waterfall of money that never dries up. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-10-06 |

Because of the massive recall they made after threatening an employee for trying to delay production to fix them in the first place. Delays hurt Boeing, recalls hurt the buyer.
Also, the issue had nothing to do with the primary functionality of the aircraft, they were parts installed for safety and redundancy. No one would have known they failed until there was a failure in the primary system. So there having been no failures resulting from this situation is only due to proper maintenance and no emergency situations in those 13 years. Boeing got lucky, plain and simple. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-08-06 |
