    You can keep it in the same orbit but spread the mass out along the orbit to the other side and that changes the combined CoG to be closer to Sun's CoG in turn changing Earth's orb…

    Haven't tested but I'm almost certain the Electron app they're talking about is VS Code. Wouldn't make sense for a code editor to sandbox extensions

    To be fair all critical systems can be controlled by hardware buttons below the displays so they don't need a 100% guarantee, worst case rebooting would be fine

    To be fair, theres also the kIPC mod that bridges and connects both kOS and kRPC together. I personally like the kerbal-y equivalent of Ada with kOS though ahaha

    If you want a simpler intro into learning the math/logic behind rocket guidance systems, kOS is an alternative mod. The main difference is that it has a pretty good base autopilot,…

    Other than LLVM portability concerns, I think Rust can for sure replace C/C++ libraries (I'm talking DLLs etc). Sure, there will be a small C ABI shim but the developer experience …

    I believe the word you're looking for is quantum - the "point" still has a radius, a singularity does not.
