I'm not 100% sure, but I think this tool just types the commands. So it avoids typos and you can just focus on what you're saying as you type nonsense. Sounds like it actually does run your pre-written commands. From the readme:

It seems like you're misunderstanding what parent meant by "prerecorded" - not a screen recording, just pre-writing of commands to be executed during the demo. Would you consider it "deception" to hit up arrow a few times in a terminal during your demo to execute a command from shell history? This is effectively the same. Take a look at the linked repo, it's very clever.
The original link for itsalive says it works by making it not live and the op says just as much.
This is very different from practicing a script and you actually doing all the actions in real time. You're allowed to rehearse for your live performance but unless you're doing it live then it's not live.
People also hate lip syncing because it's a deception of being live.
And yet, ~all singers lipsync, because the point isn't to show off what the artist can do vocally every single night, but to entertain the audience, which lip syncing achieves.
Are you assuming or do you have evidence to back up that claim. Because I actually go outside and watch musicians perform. Are you telling me they fake the errors too? LOL
> Every time you press a key, It's a Live will write one character from the file into the terminal, making it look like you're typing every single command with the practiced ease of a consummate professional.
It's like pressing next on a slide. That's not live. That's lip syncing.
Good god, this isn't that hard man. You're fine to lip sync if you call it lip syncing. Just don't claim you're actually singing when you're not and you're all good. Why is this so difficult to grasp?
"No computer needed" really does a lot for the creative process, imo. It's a big reason why Teenage Engineering's OP-1 is so successful, despite its very high price.
Look at the current internet landscape- most users interact, find, and share content through the walled gardens of social networks. I don't think "decentralized open and free" networks are at all inevitable. To me those characteristics are shrinking, not growing.
This isn't what the commentators are referring to when they talk about "the flip".
Rockets traditionally have some type of separation mechanism to separate stage 1 and stage 2. This is usually some type of pyro charge or an actual pneumatic pusher. SpaceX wants to avoid this complexity with Starship and instead "throw" off stage 2 (Starship) by doing a flip with the booster. I don't believe it's been done before for stage separation, but this is also how they deploy Starlink satellites. [0]
Obviously, something went wrong in stage separation today so Booster+Starship just continually flipped. We don't know exactly what the true flip will look like.
Rocket delays are inevitable. But since you mentioned New Glenn's perpetual delays, let's also be fair and note that Starship's orbital test has been teased by Elon for quite awhile now [0]. I happen to think an April/May launch is possible, but we'll see. And also good to note that this is still very much a "pathfinder" vehicle, in SpaceX's style of iterative design & test. So not at all the same as whenever New Glenn's first launch will be.
Yeah but New Glenn originally was basically a scaled up Falcon 9, aluminum tanks with first stage reuse. Starship is fully reusable, a much harder problem. New Glenn engine, while staged cycle are not that well optimized and its specs aren't that amazing. Raptor is (probably) the most advanced engine that has ever been fired.
Falcon Heavy beats New Glenn on most things, so New Glenn is more comparable to that generation rocket. New Glenn was sized up because Bezos wanted to have something bigger then Falcon 9.
