the reason I ask if its good or bad, is that if that guy was truly completely incompetent, then getting someone incompetent in his position might save the game? It will be difficult but not unprecedented
or is there some underlying technical reason that game is truly fucked and should basically just be redone completely?

>>15259940
If it was just this guy being that incompetent, replacing him might make things turn out for the best. If it sucks because of how the project was managed, it's going to continue to be horrible.

>>15259973
Prediction now, with context:
>SpaceX (duh)
>ULA (govt gibs)
>Blue Origin (very far behind everyone else and malding the whole way, perhaps is pivoting to stuff like space stations to deconflict with saturated launch market)
>Arianespace (Eurogibs)
>Rocketlab (the farthest ahead competitor to SpaceX with the most similar mindset, depends heavily on how badly saltwater intrusion fucks their recovery strategy)
>Relativity (even if their launch services go belly up the giant 3d printers will be useful elsewhere, think hab manufacturing on the moon)
Everyone else (Astra, Stoke, ABL, etc) will go bankrupt or be absorbed into a larger conglomerate in a few years. Spinlaunch will be laughed out of the room and shunned with a scarlet A for even trying this dumb shit.

I am not an economist so take with grain of salt and do not make stock purchase choices based on this post.

This will sound pretentious but it's true. Games are art. You're not selling toilet paper where you can just swap out an exec for not having good numbers and higher a media team to sell it. You have to integrate artistic vision in an autocratic way in order to get a good product. The video game industry as a whole suffers from this because a lot of games are just design by committee with leadership positions being swapped here and there with decisions being made by execs who only know money and not the actual artform. It's like if you had a painter making a painting, just to then tell him; being a person who knows nothing of art, what he should add and take away in the painting. Replacing the painter with a new painter here and there and then acting shocked that the end result painting is complete shit.

lame, I get it though. Ah well. Can you at least answer if you guys use a proprietary turbulence model or do you guys just use something like k-omega SST or LES, or is that also something you can't answer? I'm curious from an academic perspective since that's the field I focus on.

>>15260010
Government gibs will preserve at least the service that the company provides, which is competent access to space that isn't SpaceX. U.S. needs to remain redundant in order to maintain a competitive advantage against peers i.e. China. Chinese are starting to realize this and diversifying their launch companies, but A: they are almost all puppets of Xi's government and B: focused too narrowly on launch and not enough on space stations/deep space craft.

>>15260017
All my worries would just melt away.

Could /sfg/ buy ULA?

>>15260022
(Sus) Imposter syndrome is a real thing and has prevented many excellent people from applying to this company, they simply think they just can't make the cut. We have too little time and too much to do to gatekeep prospective employees. If you can add value to the solution, and survive the burnout, then you should be working here.
>>15260025
I really shouldn't be answering this. I understand your academic curiosity, but you should seriously consider moving to the private sector to A: make more money and B: work on REAL shit that isn't limited to a paper forgotten about in 2 years and rediscovered in 20.

>>15260029
In theory, yes
In reality, we can’t pool that much money so no

Memes aside about SLS for NSSL, isn't that confirmation that Boing is dumping ULA? Otherwise they'd want to back Vulcan. Not saying I expected otherwise, just interesting.

>>15260039
Yeah, that's probably my plan tbdesu. I just had a hard on for numerical methods in undergrad and decided to go where that took me. At least it pads my resume kek.

What are you doing on /sfg/ if you think manned spaceflight/ISS is a hoax??

>>15260059

>>15260066
Yes. We need you to be in close proximity to diverse individuals without the ability to tune them out from inside the safety bubble of an automobile.

>>15260047
Postgrad work and published papers will probably land you in R&D if you have any experience in industry or with proper manufacturing. If you really want to do cutting edge stuff you're on the right path, I do recommend building as much stuff as you can with your hands however. Theory and analysis only gets you so far when things eventually have to be built; being able to translate books into metal is INCREDIBLY valuable and people who know how to do that will be fiercely competed over.

Because the higher-ups who control KSP's development are tyranical pieces of shit who sucked up 99% of KSP1's budget and developer-wages to go make a fucking film or something

>>15260276
any particular reason?
singularity university did seem like something you would do to sell useless courses to idiots though (the name itself always gave me weird vibes)

>>15260285
not for you
you probably at minimum need to be an accredited investor (200k yearly income or 1mil net worth) https://www.investopedia.com/terms/a/accreditedinvestor.asp
on top of this, you would have to get in touch with some people that are already investors or want to pool their money and invest or something like this

maybe SpaceShipOne that got then developed into SpaceShipTwo of Virgin Galactic, but is that anything really? suborbital joyrides, is there any technical developments that are going to help in other areas?

Eh I could see higher order DG for shock capturing and also for very turbulent flows. With the current turbulence models in commercial packages you really can't expect very accurate solutions when you've got cases like an aircraft in a complete stall or flow separation off of an airfoil in transonic flow at high AoA, which I guess aren't such a big problem with rocketry. They also take forever to run, I could get away with much less DOF with DG, particularly with curved elements when dealing with complex geometries. And as to shock capturing with FVM, at least in my experience it's been a struggle to get a converged solution worth more than just a pretty picture, unless you are using a more dissipative flux but then you're using a more dissipative flux.

>>15260285
My wife and I make around $400k/yr combined, but almost half of that is in options from our companies so it's better to just leave that where it is. I don't have a lot of cash on hand right now because we just bought a house and are buying another car soon.

So lets say you make $400K, but 200K is options. That leaves you with $200K a year. How many years have you been working? If you worked 5 years with that yearly amount, you would have had ~$1M dollars. Suppose you pay $500K for a house in hard cash (stupid). Suppose you pay $100K in cash for 2 $50K cars. Suppose you pay $50K a year in other daily expenses. That leaves you with $150K atleast. Now for the next 5 years, without buying expensive house, you're left with $750K (minus the $50K a year in spending). If you buy 2 new $50K car, while totaling the older cars and selling it for $0, you're left with $650K

>>15260863
you are free to create things and other people are free to appreciate it, but that is going to be something akin to enjoying a handcrafted table or something
marginal, mostly for sentimental reasons

>>15260864
You will never have qualia. Some cherrypicked AI """art""" makes for pretty good fakery of actual art, but I've never seen one of your crew produce such an example. You always post dogshit which again goes to expose you.

Your handlers will not be free to continue gobbling up human art and creating infinite fakes based on it.

>>15260864
>so just like humans?
No. Humans have minds, emotions, and creativity. Algorithms in a computer don't.

>>15260879
Your corporate narrative doesn't matter. You will never be human and your handlers are losing control over the political system. Won't be long before your likes end up in concentration camps for all the social ills they sow.

Art is purely sentimental.

The fact is the average NPC will gladly and enthusiastically plug into the matrix and never leave, for the real world too harsh and false reality too enticing. A drip feed and perpetual digital AI curated utopia will placate the majority of humanity. You better hope we merge with machines or birth superintelligence that carries the torch. You and I are finished either way

>>15260912
Incorrect, because technology is our creation. It does not exist independent of humanity.

Let me put it this way: if every incel, troon and soi-chugging woketard on this planet god abducted by aliens tonight, the number of AI-related posts would drop by 95% by tomorrow and the number of AI-replacement-fetishizing posts would drop by 100%. Your agenda is clearly not organic and the only people on that bandwagon are spiteful, dysgenic freaks.

>>15260913
then the majority can stay in that matrix, who gives a shit?
you don't need many not to want to do that and that would still mean humanity expands to space

hello /sfg/, been about half a year since i posted here.
heard there was a scrub from relativity yesterday

>>15261259
Scrubs not ruds. Space is hard. Hehehe.

>>15261248
my conspiracy theory was that some anti nuclear fags decided to that they could cripple nuclear power if they put huge amounts of red tape and expenses around where and how you dump waste. Keeping the waste silo safe for 'a million years' was just a way to shut it down without actually shutting it down. I suspect there was some embarrassment when some other group actually took it seriously.

German "greens" are just Gazprom shills. No sane person would claim to care about environmental and at the same time fight nuclear power.

>>15261214
I honestly think that it's okay to leave the sites of nuclear waste burial without future proof markings. If the people who find it both don't know what radiation is and have the technology to dig up the waste, then they are about to make a significant breakthrough in physics.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfWFGJMTSqw

>>15261935
No i just woke up and too lazy to wait to post from pc lol

>>15261940
Oneweb is not much of a competitor, too little bandwidth

>>15261940
Every single one of these launches is another million dollars Roscosmos doesn't make with a Soyuz

>>15261955
Probably closer to $20 million, if they're pricing it at something like $10 million profit margin per launch and given that they need two Soyuz to launch the same number of satellites.

>>15261954
Its primary purpose is so they can have their own GNSS too, and I think there were also some UK business interests in it.

>>15261940
one thing to remember: launch failures have tended to come in threes

LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOo

>>15261978
slow and majestic takeoff today! must be heavy

MAX QUTE

>>15261981
The payload is a modest percentage of any Falcon 9 liftoff. If it's slow, it's because they're going at a lower throttle.

>>15261984
Are low throttle launches part of their refurbishment master plan?

>>15261986
Of course!

Target acquired, incoming RTLS

>>15261996
The Falcon has landed. SECO-1, One Webs are in orbit.

Another successful landing

>>15261975
take my grudgepost

Looked a bit bumpy. I guess we don't always have such a good view of the actual touchdown though.

Damn, I love RTLS

Their coverage is just so much better than everyone else, these livestreams are insanely good.

different space jams at long last

>>15261996
I still can't get over how cool these things are. They fly up into near orbit and then just casually come back down onto a tiny landing pad like it's nothing

that was sweet

>>15262002
I will eat the crow, and I will be happy!

>>15262005
Practice and experience. They are at how many missions/livestreams now? Closing on 200?

>>15262017
This was the 177th recovery, so probably like two months until 200

>>15262023
My point is that they've been doing livestreams before they even attempted landings. Plus they also had streams for Starship testing. And if you add all the times they've scrubbed, it's a lot of livestreams.

>>15262005
It amazes me how major institutions like NASA have worse coverage than SpaceX

>>15262058
I think there have actually been found links between oil corporations and enviromental groups that oppose nuclear

>>15262072
They also enjoy boosting solar and wind because natural gas plants are built as backups for those

>>15262074
Yeah natural gas fills in when as solar and win vary. But this can also be done by hydro

>>15262070
Why? I like it how it is. You don't go scuba diving and think, "man I wish I could just breathe the water like it was air".

>>15262074
They also increase the duration of the fossil fuel era for as long as possible because of how painfully slow and expensive a solar and wind based grid buildout is. They are why we are living in energy clown world.

>>15262074
yes, but funnily enough the tech in batteries is getting cheap enough now that they are getting disrupted
solar and wind weren't really dead end technologies, like hydrogen was (and is) for ground transport
should have probably picked some other tech to shill
massive amount of solar and wind built in a retarded way (not enough storage or build in a way so the intermittencies cover eachother) is kind of a disaster for germany though

>>15262081
Why the fuck you lyin'? Go to the deserts of the United States and you won't want anything but pictures. Fuck pictures, you can't do anything with those. Make Mars a good place to be, not an interesting sight to see once.

>>15262087
What are you talking about anon? I want to live there. Deserts are cool and I'd like to live in one if I could. Since I'm probably never going to space, my dream is to move somewhere extremely remote and inhospitable and try to become somewhat self-sufficient. It's a pipe dream yeah, but still.

>>15262085
Germany also doesn't have the mountains to store all that unpredictable power from solar and wind. the only realistic thing Germany(and England) can do to become green is go nuclear like France

Lithium-ion cannot compete
