But that does get to the point. Maybe differentkinds of vehicles need different kinds of qualification testing. Would you trust your 16yo that just passed their driver's test in a sedan to tow a boat through town with an F250?

> I think it's completely reasonable if we tell people that their Sur-Ron is for private property use only.

Anywhere an ORV can be legally used. That's not just private property.

Ultimately the reason cold water drownings are survivable is because the lower temperature decreases the speed of chemical reactions. If chemical reactions are happening (e.g.) 10x slower, then the amount of damage that occurs 10 minutes after cessation of breathing at normal body temperature now take 100 minutes.

On the other hand horse employment has taken a significant dive from the pre-electrification era.

Illicitly learning by asking someone a question and listening to their answer.

I think it's primarily for designing chemical processing systems, though I know it through the pipe layout software being used off-label to design vehicle electrical harnesses.

FYI there is already a product with a very similar name, CADEM.

Just after takeoff is the worst time to have a problem. Hopefully they had the minimum crew. Also hopefully it wasn't carrying a nuke and/or it wasn't compromised.

Having four wheel motors solves any issues that compromise a single unit, but I don't think they've answered how they would mitigate potential system issues that might bring them all down at once.

I don't think anyone expects Ford to directly pay owners for warranty work and just send them the instructions to do it.

The issue is whether a bonded and insured independent mechanic can be paid out for the warranty work.

> I do think “fully consumed or gated to never backfeed balcony solar at scale” is all i’m referring to, which i naively hope is a smaller regulatory change than backfeeding

I though the point of these systems was you plug them in to your wall socket and they lower your electricity bill. If you want to avoid tieing to the grid you can't have such a simple deployment.

It sounds wrong. It's okay for it's placement to be off by thousands of times it's size?

It doesn't have a nuclear reactor, it has two dozen natural gas turbines.

YASA claims their integrated brake/wheel motor is lighter than comparable (supercar) disc brake systems.

As far as I know, he lost that value with honest bad decision making.

Though (at least to my knowledge) Zuckerberg doesn't have a history of abusing his authority to make deals that advantage other companies he owns at the expense of Facebook.

E.g. SpaceX buying up large numbers of Cybertrucks Tesla couldn't sell at MSRP, not even negotiating a good fleet sale deal.

Probably because there is no plan to develop a commercial plane.

Yeah it's bad when it's abused, so don't abuse it.

But not having operator overloading when dealing with vectors is maddening.

It's Starship that's supposed to do the landing on the moon. If the next few test flights don't go well it won't be ready for Artemis III next year.

You've mixed up the ship and booster.
