So many questions...so few characters.

🚨JOB ALERT🚨 - Know something about space policy issues and want to help start up a new project on space security and safety w/ @carnegienpp? We're looking for an RA, stat. Applications due October 28. https://t.co/pKly4LY4L8

@RichardGarriott The process requires a high temperature environment. Assuming RWGS can use waste heat from the ship's engines and the process is productive enough to justify the capital expense of the equipment, it might be useful, esp. where fuel resupply is costly. Many ?s remain.

@ChrisJohnsonEsq The real issue isn't the Russian criticism. It's the fact that the order itself is an unnecessary, confusing muddle of terminology that makes no sense.

@nkjemisin It's not corporate jargon, it's legal jargon. ;-) As with law, ethics is a set of enumerated norms that use incentives and punishments to guide individual human behavior (as distinguished from human nature) towards more socially beneficial outcomes.

[Lawrence Roberts @formofaquestion]

@nkjemisin The validity of this particular problem/solution aside, aren't you throwing the baby out with the bathwater? While human nature may be immutable, technology has a big impact on the cost benefit analysis that influences behavior and re-calibrates social norms.
