You wanted de-regulation, you get de-regulation.  This is what you all wanted.

It’s worth noting for historical context the Saturn V also had problems with Pogo that were never really solved.  The worst case was a center-engine shutdown on Apollo 13.

Can we “please” stop this “Democrats should win in 2020" nonsense; right now, Democrats are dogs because they don’t win in the states they need to. Look at Warrens numbers in the rust belt as an example; these candidates do not win the working-class voters they need to win in order to win back the rust belt. Hell,…

Letting Robbie Gould go proved to be an unbearable mistake.

Here’s the real problem I have with these people in these debates: It’s not just Democrats watching, and crap like this results in Independents and, yes, some Republicans thinking *that* is how Democrats all are.  As a result, they tune out whatever they propose and don’t vote for Democrats.

“and that the team they beat in the Finals made it there in the first place because, by having four star players, they were able to survive the loss of one of the two or three best basketball players on earth, and still rampage over the best teams in their brutal conference.”

Which is where Trickle down fails; if consumers don’t have the money to spend on goods and services, companies *will* eventually have to lay off workers due to declining sales.  The accumulation of wealth we have seen over the past 50 years simply isn’t going to be sustainable much longer.

“So when you’re looking at hourly wages, shouldn’t they be less in Mexico than in the US?”

Here’s the problem: Pretty much all manufacturing has incredibly small profit margins. If you paid all your workers what we would consider a decent wage, manufacturing would absolutely collapse. That’s why manufactures have gone so heavily invested in automation, as it’s the most effective way to cut costs and…

Take your star.

Yeah, the entire award process was a sham to ensure Boeing won the contract.

The problem is that problem reporting and maintenance always gets last consideration by program managers, and it never gets addressed until someone gets to a guy with at least a few stars on his shoulder and has him raise a stink about it.

“Is it to late to restart the F-16 and Super Hornet production lines?”

Huh, that story sounds awfully familiar...

My advice: Find a shop you trust. Easy way to do so too: If they start finding lots of little things that need fixing, then they aren’t trustworthy.

Typically, “I can’t say” for something like this is about as close as you are going to get to a confirmation.  Seriously, not even “The Legend of Zelda has traditionally been a single-player series”?  Yeah, that’s a confirmation.

The fuel thing is a myth. From what I recall from Deke’s autobiography, there were other technical reasons why the Apollo 10 LM couldn’t land (I forget what offhand though).

Technically, the habitable area of the LM was on top of the ascent stage. Much like the Service Module, the crew couldn’t physically enter the descent stage of the LM.

This isn’t surprising whatsoever. I’m a Software Engineer by trade, but one who also works with Radar/Lidar systems, and am very well aware of all the problems self-driving cars are going to have.

Uhh no.
