Awesome news!
Another academic scientist with a worthless advanced STEM degree & a silly🏅, who doesn’t do anything real, leaving U.S.A. for 🇨🇳 ,making more room for rich folks who do ALL the REAL work to advise the US government on technical matters.
Yes. I’m being sarcastic.
How many degrees of separation are between you and the humans alive who are working to change the trajectory of humanity as a species? Chase those problems that get you in those rooms. It ain't Sharepoint homies.
dosing hippies with LSD to distract the public from secretly recreating the Nazi War Machine was brilliant work, and it's still working. the only thing more cringe than US government conspiracies is the people who freak out about them. if you loved this country, you'd understand.
@EV_Trapper I like Niels, but but his own planform was based on other designs. What Tomas is doing is clearly in the same lineage, but significantly different as far as the RC plane hobby goes.
Take a look at these speed-seekers at a community meetup in 2013 and you will see what I mean:
Elon Musk warned new SpaceX employees during orientation that working for him might cost them their marriages, their health, and their best years.
He told them the mission is to make humanity multiplanetary. That the work required to achieve it is brutal. That the hours will be long and the pressure will be relentless and the personal cost will be real.
He said some of them would sacrifice their relationships. That they would miss birthdays and anniversaries and the moments with their children that you can never get back. That the work would consume years that in hindsight will feel like they went by in a month.
And then he said he was sorry in advance.
Not sorry enough to change the expectations. But sorry enough to say out loud what every startup founder thinks and never admits.
I am going to burn you. And I know it. And I need you anyway.
The honesty is brutal and also rare. Most companies pretend the grind doesn't exist. They talk about work-life balance while sending emails at midnight. They call it a family while firing people quarterly.
Musk just tells you the truth on day one. The mission is worth it. The cost is real. Decide now.
The fact that thousands of people hear this speech and stay tells you everything about what the right mission does to people. They'll walk into the fire voluntarily if they believe the reason is big enough.
Noyron + Additive Manufacturing is a powerful combination. Complex geometry, quick iterations, fewer assembly steps, and a much larger design space.
This electric motor stator prototype was made using an experimental bi-metal process developed by @Fraunhofer IGCV.
The Left: “Believe All Women!”
British Women: “250,000+ of us were systematically raped and tortured by mostly Pakistani men from the 1950s to now with help from our police, social workers, NHS staff and politicians.”
The Left: “Yea, not you.”
I want a city on Mars and a robot butler.
I want clean water, and at least two habitable planets.
I want to see humanity flourish while preserving the Earth for generations to come.
you're surrounded by thousands of solved non-trivial problems.
you live in a paradise beyond the comprehension of ancient man.
fly to other continents. drink as much water as you want. transform sunlight into a voice that tells you how to get rich.
another normal day on earth.
