It's crazy how far you have to scroll to even see this on the front page of NYT.

Maybe people have bigger problems ? War, cost of living crisis etc ?

Would be nice if the good news got some room on the front page, no wonder people are so hopeless when the things that would give them hope and optimism are buried under a pile of doom

I forgot to mention Space X has again limited Ukraines star link again so people are dying from their inability to intercept Russian ballistics…personally I find that more important front page news…you reap what you sew ?

I don’t disagree with you but this exciting for “tech people” who are into engineering. That’s about all.

What good news though? These days it's a tie at best between humanity reaching new levels of space access and trillionaireity reaching new levels of stranglehold on humanity.

Sorry, as much as I'd like to separate the two, I can't.

I wonder if it has anything to do with the CEO being a fascist?
