Three jobs applied to today.
(And yet another offer from a company I'm not familiar with asking me to take up a contract in Toronto. I can't afford to move. Not yet, anyway.)
Watching full city council arguing over whether to go with an investigation by the city's auditor-general or a full judicial inquiry re: what exactly went wrong re: the first expansion of Ottawa's LRT system and why. It's been going for the better part of five hours so far, still in progress as I type this. It's gotten rather heated at times!
I see that New Shepherd 18 went without a hitch. Eleven minutes and, at age 90, William Shatner is now an astronaut in addition to everything else he's been across the decades, flawed as he's been.
What else? I think that I realized yesterday that I'd forgotten that I'd been borrowing a CPAP machine for at least a year before actually purchasing one. Memory issues...

Date: 2021-10-14 04:54 pm (UTC)Good point. I know NASA astronauts were always wired to an amazing degree during launch, I assume they still are. And I would assume that NASA is requiring them to be so during SpaceX launches. But what about non-NASA launches or from orgs like BH or Virgin? There's also the question of what could be done if something went amiss: on a NASA launch, the people are trained and have medical equipment. Of course, with BH and Virgin, they're not up very long - currently. SpaceX just sent those people up for what? Three days? And I believe they did conduct some experiments, though I'm not sure how serious they were.
