I read this as SpaceX and was disappointed.

Did the exact same thing. I don't know what I thought SpaceX was going to give me for free. But I was excited about it.

Which made me wonder: is there a wave of startups ending with X these days, imitating SpaceX?

Web 1.0 (or was that already 2.0-beta-2?) had so many <consonant>r’s, imitating flickr, it became a joke. Wasn’t even Facebook at some point thinking about “Facebookr“?

Don’t really see that level of groupthink anymore.

> Web 1.0 (or was that already 2.0-beta-2?)

flickr is one of the things that were used as an example of what "Web 2.0" is supposed to be when the term became popular, so that was well into the "Web 2.0" era.

Same here. And the word “launches” added to my confusion as I thought SpaceX “launched” a rocket.

Do not despair! FTFY:

lol. Slow day at work?

For y'all disappointed we're not SpaceX, here's a little query you can copy-paste into SpectX to query SpaceX telemetry data and calculate the max q between seconds 48 and 89. Copy, paste, run, press 'graph' and voilá :)

Just rename the company Tesler.

SpectX has been incredibly useful while dealing with tons and tons of web server logs. If you've ever thought that surely must there should be something with less overhead than Graylog et al, you should at least consider it.

Tricky goddam title.... Here I come thinking SpaceX but no.... They had to include the word "Launch", refuse to believe that was unintentional.

Looks really cool! Cannot download on Mac though: https://imgur.com/a/iKMt37q
