No it's not. Apple does not support NVME so there are no NVME drives in any Apple products.

fuel needed for the landing is inefficient compared to a splashdown parachute recovery
The barge/ocean is just a temporary measure. The vision is twenty rockets launching a day and returning to the launch site to prep for the next launch.
There were about 120 rocket launches last year. SpaceX's mission statement is to reduce the cost of launches by 100x, and utilization rates go up as costs fall, so it's not just 100x more launches - twenty a day is probably very conservative if they hit their price targets.
Queue the folks who can't imagine what anybody would do with more than 640 launches a year.
But it appeared they could come down slowly. Pretty close to hover.
Yeah, I think that's the inevitable end-game - there is plenty of time to make small adjustments right up until the point of contact with the solid parts of the planet. AIUI, they're so close to empty on the fuel tank after the burnback that they're trying to get it down on the pad ASAP. They can only attempt these landings for now on launches that don't require as much fuel as others - supposedly the next iteration can hold more fuel.
I would be kind of surprised if it was generally noticable
Amazon reviews are quite positive.
If you're just looking at resumes it's easy to say "oh, yes, let's give this woman a chance" when you know you'd never actually give her the job. Follow it up with some bullshit excuse about 'culture fit' or personality that can't really be quantified or held against you.
Assange is just a SWATing early adopter.
Disinfo is the oldest game in the book. Assange is stuck in a hole in London due to the oldest.
It could be a good opportunity to repair relations with an ally.
Yep - let's hope he's a smart enough opportunist to leverage the situation. Remember, the USG thought the Bolivia scenario was plausible enough to take extreme illegal action. So that confirms a willingness.
By the way, has Bolivia asked for (and gotten) an apology from any of those countries?
According to reports, yes.
Assurances they'll never do such a thing again? Hardly. Violate the treaty and send the Ambassador to apologize.
I've noticed several design suggestions in your code.
