Blue Origin
They performed a high-altitude escape test today, apparently successfully, and it carried a lot of experiments. I hope this is their last milestone before flying test passengers.
Web Sites
…without web servers. I wonder about the data security of being so deeply embedded in the cloud.
I’ll Have a Bloody Tongue
