No if we were inteligent about this we could probably work to minimize whatever shit is coming our way.

But you know there's a prerequisite we might have some issues with there.

The only way out is through or something like that.

Imsgine what you could do with starship if actual competent engineering management happened.

Good thing starship isn't the only option.

And/or share the IP with all of then

Sell it off to one of the primes

When the house of cards finally falls it is going to be hilarious.

xAI is an infinite money pit and Elon likes to watch it burn.

I guess.

Kill not the cringe, kill the part of you that cringes.

completely unrelated but im just reminded of all the times ive had my blood drawn by nursing students. When they finally managed to get the needle into the right place that is.
My veins are not hard to see, but they still seem often struggle. repeatedly.

its fine, but my elbow crease looks funny.

pressed it so hard it overflowed into the strongly approve category.

but also this feels a bit like trump getting scared he might do a 1929 and backing off again.

I ain't readin all that

Just let us build the damn windmills already guys.

for those not aware, even though the a220 has massive demand, it has yet to turn a profit because of Bombardier being smaller player without experience and scale to negotiate lower parts contracts.

Its a whole lot more complex, but that airframe is a pita to produce

There is no family of relatively similar aircraft you can move pilots between with only brief training courses.

I was getting to that, suppose boom actually gets a manufacturable design approved, how are they going to make it viable to produce at scale?

Its going to be the a220 production woes all over again on steroids. Not to mention type certification issues for the pilots

Everything else boom has to do to make a supersonic passenger aircraft safe and economically viable is the difficult part.

(though ofcourse fuel effeciency plays a major role there)

Honestly the turbine is not what worries me about boom, FTT/Kratos are the subcontractor for symphony so given enough time/money I don't doubt that could happen.

Now it's very silly to use that for power generation but that's another discussion entirely

This place has the juice, and the Iranians seemingly agree

One day the forever nap will claim us, until then we keep napping

Subtext is difficult. Except it's not subtext.

Also war bad.

It tells the story through a ancient and flawed character who (thinks he) has done a genocide and is dealing with severe ptsd.

A core plot point in new who is genocide bad

Idk we can probably make SAP sell it as an integrated solution

I mean it'll probably be open-source if it happens

I'm tired boss

While I know a bit about the semicon industry, I don't work in it. So my perspective is limited at best.

Well idk what that guy thinks. I don't know if he thinks at all. As for Intel, they've done some dumb shit, but also they aren't in a truly horrinke place yet, tbh.

Though revan and @thetecheng.bsky.social would be more qualified to speak on that

Aaaah, It all makes sense now.
