Concerns mount in China’s space sector that Musk’s Starship will be a failure

There are growing doubts within China’s space sector that Starship, the world’s most powerful rocket being developed by SpaceX in the United States, will ever overcome its engineering and financial challenges and deliver for founder and CEO Elon Musk. Starship’s latest flight on Friday – weeks before the company’s expected initial public offering (IPO) – was described as “mostly successful” by the company after engine failures occurred in both the first and second stages. After the first stage..

An explosion damaged a tanker close to its waterline as it sailed off Oman, a marine monitor said on Tuesday, as tensions remained high around the blockaded Strait of Hormuz. The captain reported the explosion on the hull of the vessel, UK Maritime Trade Operations said. “The crew and vessel are safe, although the master reports some bunker fuel has discharged into the sea.” The incident, in the Gulf of Oman about 60 nautical miles east of Muscat, was an “external explosion”, UKMTO added,...

Lifestyleinflation ist geil

Ganz ehrlich, wenn man sich mal ein gutes Polster aufgebaut hat, kann und sollte man sich ruhig mal etwas gönnen. Man ist ja nur einmal jung. Ich versuche hohe laufende Kosten zu vermeiden. Aber abgesehen davon mache ich eigentlich was ich will. Urlaub für 7000€? Gönn ich mir. Essen gehen für 300€? Passt schon. Ab einer gewissen Depotgröße/Einkommen spielt das echt keine allzu große Rolle mehr. Ich habe trotzdem am Ende jedes Monats mehr Geld im Depot/auf dem Konto. Also was soll’s? submitted by

Deadly building collapse shocks Philippine city: ‘like an aeroplane landing’

James Bernardo, 30, was delivering food on Teodoro street in Angeles City in the Philippines when a nine-storey building under construction on the opposite side of the road collapsed behind him. “What I heard behind me sounded like an aeroplane landing. The sound was unlike anything normal. When I looked at my side mirror and then turned around, what I saw were pylons falling and power lines sparking,” Bernardo told This Week in Asia. In just seconds, the structure had morphed into a twisted...

The woman on Tuesday told acting principal magistrate Daniel Tang Siu-hung at Tuen Mun Court that she “underestimated” the legal consequences of attempting to offer a HK$10,000 (US$1,276) bribe to Danny.

Is anybody considering the secondary Polymarket is running on Crowdcube? They reported $10B in volume and they are raising at $15B valuation. With a 2% fee, that means $200M is revenue which means a 75x P/E, which is high. But world sport betting market revenue is $300B, that is 1500x their current revenue.

Trump makes everything worse but he didn’t start it

While cleaning my basement, I found an old copy of Foreign Affairs dated September/October 2014. If you didn’t look at the publication date but only its table of contents, you would have thought it was a recent edition. Titled “See America: Land of Decay & Dysfunction”, the edition’s front cover is a painting of a crumbling Capitol Building that houses the United States Congress. Keep in mind we are talking about the second year of the second term of Barack Obama, whose presidency is now fondly.
