As a software developer I’m pretty confident that X could hand over every piece of documentation they have and we’d all be non the wiser as to how it works.

What’s the point in mining the Moon if we’re just gonna leave what’s been mined there? Of course it would be removed.

We might use the mined materials to build stuff on the moon. Even if we were mining to bring resources back there’ll be a lot of stuff dug up that we don’t want so we’d obviously want to leave that there. We’d need to process the ore on the moon to extract the small amount of material that we’re after.

Where did you get that 10% is what would be required to affect the tides? Why don’t we just say it’s 90% to back your point up even more?

90% would be an obviously ridiculous number to use so would undermine their argument. Assuming their numbers are correct then it would take 10,000,000 years to remove 1% of the moon. And we wouldn’t remove all of the material that we mine so we’d take even longer than that to actually remove 1%.

Having said that, I really don’t agree with the sentiment of letting people do what they want on the moon because it won’t affect us. We should be more considerate of every environment just as a matter of principle.

Plenty of jobs at less than £90k/year say that you’re not allowed a second job.

Visio is similar in that the lowest plan doesn’t let you use many of the built in shapes.

You can add them yourself as images but loads of useful shapes for a network diagram, for example, are missing making it very inconvenient to use (I’m now using draw.io).

I can understand limiting certain functionality (like only having a web UI) but not making basic tasks unnecessarily difficult.

Eventually, Koru was towed away without her masts, which were later assembled.

It’s bonkers that this was an option but they still intended to dismantle the bridge instead.
