I'm not a rocket scientist, but I'm relatively sure that launching pads shouldn't look like bomb craters after the rocket takes off
@thomasfuchs These people should not be taken seriously, because they sure as hell don't take their work seriously.
I think an engineer misunderstood “one-time pad”
@kusuriya @GeoffWozniak @thomasfuchs Yeah, I’m joking around, but I don’t actually blame the engineers for this stuff.
This has “fucked up management/owner priorities” written all over it.
@kusuriya @maddiefuzz @GeoffWozniak @thomasfuchs A friend who left SpaceX a while ago once told me that they'd driven off a lot of a the people who had worked on the Falcon rockets, who had learned the lessons from those.
I'm not sure if that's the case, but it seems like churning through and burning out employees isn't the greatest strategy in the long run.
@toroidalcore @kusuriya @maddiefuzz @GeoffWozniak That does sound plausible
