Maybe when you have private funds you can go around firing engines willy nilly. NASA isn't some playboy's plaything, it's American taxpayer dollars at stake and so a decidedly measured approach is the only morally acceptable way forward. SLS will fly.

Starliner is substantially wider than the Centaur upper stage. Originally there was a frustum connecting the two but models showed that when the vehicle reached supersonic speeds the frustum would guide the shockwave to the Centaur damaging it. It was dropped and replaced with a ring that would force the shockwave to detach early and thus spare the Centaur

How would one build a boat probe to sail around on Titan's methane lakes?

Solar power is out of the question as Titan receives 1/100 the sunlight Earth does, so the boat would need a nuclear battery as a power source for its screw. I'm unsure what hull materials NASA would peruse that could withstand those extreme temperatures, and a completely different set of buoyancy calculations (Titan's gravity, density of liquid CH4).

I was picturing something about the size of an ordinary fishing canoe on Earth that had single electrically driven screw that can move it at a modest 3 knots, a small mushroom anchor attached to a motorize winch, and for god-tier exploration a small submersible ROV attached to another winch with 100m depth capabilities.

I'm reading Aslee Vance's Musk Book. So apparently, Musk isn't just a typical CEO. He's an actual software engineer/scientists (intern researcher). One of the first few startups he worked on was at a ultracapacitor research facility and the other was video game startup where he was writing low level software drivers for joystick/mouse. That video game startup people would later work to create apple ipod/iphone, quicktime software, starwars effects team at lucas art entertainment. But his job was specifically to write menial drivers for joysticks LMAO. He was doing both of them at same time too.

That anon is basically saying the other post is one big Freudian slip. That all the metaphors he uses are unwitting innuendos. Something sick involving children, adults and erections.

When most people say "Freudian" they just mean this kind of thing: sexual interpretation of your allegorical speech.

Freud was certainly about this, but he wasn't ALL about this. He had very interesting things to say about the way dreams are structured into our daily lives. And he was also a dangerous quack who should have never been allowed anywhere near a prescription pad.

I know this is a rocket (OMG PHALLUS LOL) thread but if you want to stop being a Freud brainlet without having to slog through Freud, read this:

http://libgen.rs/book/index.php?md5=E1AB354B3C24EA42F909C146E6E40A57

ALSO, The Oedipus Complex was bullshit and Freud knew it. Most of his early patients were Viennese Jewish adults who came to him with mental problems stemming from child molestation. He presented this finding to his colleagues, also Viennese jews, and they persuaded him to cover it up. And so the Oedipus and Electra complexes were born: the first formalized victim blaming.

Ill give it to you friend-o.

Here's the deal, there's something called shorting, which means selling more of something you dont have in the hopes youll get more of this later. Its kinda slimy but common.

A very powerful hedgefund did this with gamespot stock. Being the stocks of basically blockbuster after the dvd was invented and them being an ultra powerful wall street titan it didnt even ocur to them there was any danger in shorting, whatever the case they could buy more of those shitty stocks.

thing is once they promised those stocks to others in a contract they are FORCED to produce them, Some anons in internet figured out what was happening because this is really public information and they coordinated a massive buy, so that started driving the price up.

So did the hedgefund bought them out? nah, they went all "ahh these retards are buying worthless stock to piss with us, im not gonna buy 8 dollar stock for 11, ill wait for it to drop and fuck them.

The problem is people kept buying, so long story short, it was at 11 a month ago. It was at 105 yesterday when i bought, it was at 122 today when i checked and it closed at 155. (By the way, i put in 10.000 and have already made around 5000 will probably hold a bit more)

The thing is, the contract in which this hedgefund shorted is due on friday. That means that when that day comes, they are forced to buy a shitton of stock at whatever the price or go bankrupt.

But thats not the end, this fund was slated to go bankrupt when stocks hit 50, but they are backed by another bigger fund, and that fund has insurance, and that insurance has insurance, and that chain eventually reaches to the us goverment.

So basically its a debt that has to be paid and is dependant on the price of the stock, which is dependant on the amount of people who are interested in doubling their money.

if you buy and sell on the same day you have potential to 30-100% hold till friday and 200%-500% seems reasonable, hold for the long run and theres no telling 1000% 10000%.

of course the longer you wait the bigger the risk, but anything before friday is extremely safe investment wise. There now exists a mechanism to safely double the amount of money you have and a vast amount of people know about this, its bound to get weird eventually

this is where their autodriving is. Bare in mind its currently at "DO NOT FUCKING TAKE YOUR EYES OFF THE ROAD" and this is the result and they have the firm intention of taking it into fully autonomous.

electric cars are a guaranteed part of the future and elons has a head start, other most important part is batteries which he also has a head start on.

oh, and not to mention the tesla semi. this is often overlooked but will be a revolution comparable to when amazon was introduced.

imagine you could buy stock on amazon before it took off, well this is gonna be much much bigger. Go see the tesla semi presentation, ill wait.

ok basically, the way goods are transported now is:
-By truck: expensive but flexible
-By train: cheap but tied to schedule and track laying, doesnt get everywhere.

Well, a tesla autonomous semi can work 24/7 AND it saves you the salary of the driver, with those two simple things it manages to be EXTREMELY CHEAPER than the railroad while extremely flexible. The revolution this will mean is hard to describe. The price of goods is now the same in remote locations ALL OVER THE WORLD, and the difference of what was being paid before will go into tesla stocks. imagine that

However, I don't like the fact that Take Two is their owner.

You'd be surprised by how much this game changed, I'm just deciding to give developing a game like this a shot. If I pull through with this, I might be able to make some good shekels with this. Went from a comfy childhood classic to a legitimate dev tool.
