The layout work Shuttle MLP instructions is finally done! Thankfully, redoing the 5+ hours of lost work caused by Studio messing everything up was much faster the second time around. I hope this will be my next release in late October-November. 🤞Ps.: Also works with Ares I-X.

Opening a can shouldn't be a struggle. 🥤 This handy Soda Can Opener by Tom Horsley makes it effortless. It’s an easy, fast print that’s helpful for people with long nails, limited hand mobility, or anyone who wants to protect their fingers. www.printables.com/model/241003...

"Application development did not change much for 20 years, but now, a new wave is crashing in. Most computers in the future must be put to work at least in part w/o programmers. Not surprisingly, programmers will instinctively resist methods described in this book." - 1982, James Martin (cont'd)

I am a sucker for good books, and so especially O'Reilly books. Here's one that is WIP, but in return, it is free, thanks to @antithesis.com It's for CTOs / eng leaders who want to get AI to deliver *business value* which is... tricky. Get it here: pages.antithesis.com/oreilly-scal...

Spot the difference game. Columbia, Challenger, Discovery and Atlantis/Endeavour. If the test builds will go well, I release them in December/January along with the Mobile Launch Platform. The MLP is already build tested and compatible with Ares I-X.

Fresh data from GitHub: Agent-generated PRs have exploded in size. 9x the last 8 months (!!) No signs of slowing down. This is why everyone is rethinking code reviews, deploys, possibly even o11y thanks to the GH team for sharing this data with me! (Slide from my talk yesterday)

For a lot of reasons (don't ask), I've been lazy about posting updates. But now I have two projects to announce. Ok, MLP is older, but I wanted to release it with a Shuttle collection. When can I do the test build? Well, I really don't know, see the reasons.

I think this area is done for now. I added a slight (-0.3°) angle to the LH2 pipes. It not just looks more accurate but solves some alignment problems too. Also there are some new (barely visible) pipework, GSE, cable trays, etc.

Talked to an engineer inside of NVIDIA about how they and their team works. Very interesting: “We don’t need to worry about layoffs. This means no need to worry about elbowing people out of the way to try and make yourself “safe” and important. So everyone helps everyone.”

Talked with a few folks inside of AI labs (OpenAI, Anthropic) about what they think of the future of software engineering. The “closer” to shipping production code engineers are, the less they believe software engineering will be “solved” fully by AI. The opposite true as well

Quite a bit of back and forth, but I think I've finally found the right direction for the SLS ML-1. A few new elements also helped solve several problems I couldn't solve 3 years ago. This platform is proving to be a much bigger challenge than the Saturn ML ever was.
