Mercury remains one of our solar system’s most elusive and difficult planets to study. It's easier to send probes to the icy moons of Saturn or Jupiter, or even Pluto, than to land on our innermost planet of Mercury. Ground-based optical observatories don’t risk turning their sights on Mercury, without potentially damaging their optics under the very nearby glare of the bright Sun. Thus, of the planets in our inner solar system, Mercury arguably remains both the least explored and most misunderstood.

Justine Musk said her former husband "thrives on chaos" and that "everything is life and death" in his narrative. For Elon Musk, chaos may be more than a management style: His ex-wife says it’s where he feels comfortable. Justine Musk described the billionaire’s appetite for intensity in a teaser posted Tuesday for Kara Swisher’s interview with her and filmmaker Alex Gibney ahead of the release of Gibney’s documentary “MUSK.”“I once described him as somebody who can, like, jump off the edge of a cliff and, you know, invent a parachute on the way down,” Justine Musk told Swisher about her ex-husband, “Like, I think he thrives on chaos.”Justine Musk, an author and the mother of Vivian Jenna Wilson, said the Tesla CEO's language often casts challenges as existential emergencies, with an element of performance. “Everything is life and death,” she said. “And I think he really lives like that. He really lives with that pitch of intensity.”That description echoes inside Elon Musk's companies. At xAI, current and former employees told Business Insider that Musk’s growing involvement led to abrupt shifts in priorities, intensive “war rooms,” and a group chat of more than 300 engineers.

“Rendering Doom in a database is obviously a bad idea,” Lukas Vogel writes in a lengthy blog post explaining how exactly he managed to render Doom using an SQL database. OK, that’s not entirely accurate. The SQLDoom project uses a small Python client to handle input and output, drive the game’s timing, and display each frame to the screen. Behind that, a series of CedarDB tables tracks the game geometry and state, while about 1,300 lines of SQL queries spread across 89 common table expressions implement the game logic and generate 35 bitmap framebuffers per second.
