It doesn't have to be, but in Elon's case, it is.
Vagabonds by Hao Jingfang. A really enjoyable story about people on Mars and Earth after their societies and cultures diverge. Definitely felt like a new perspective to me.
I worked with ROS1 professionally for a few years. My big takeaway was that the middleware got a lot more attention than it deserved. There are tons of hard research problems to work on in robotics: reliable navigation,…
I got 159 on my first try. I like the art. The difficulty progression is pretty good, starts out easy and gets faster and harder. Nice work!

I think it is much cooler now. So many more things are possible now. Instead of having 8 low res sprites to push around, we have high quality 3d rendering. Instead of making a robot with 2 wheels that bumps against a…
