  1. Another aerospace engineer here and I agree. There's way too many people with no technical background at all pumping out technical opinions these days. Its at the core of why we just aren't solving a lot of problems. We really do need to start telling the clowns and idiots to shut up especially non-engineers on engineering subjects.

  2.  @truegret7778  Buddy I have just had another clown berate me over being a spoiler for fully auto-piloted cars. I have actually spent the last 30+ years in control systems and automation. I know what it takes to write software to link sensors to actions and can unequivocally state that 99% of everyone who can program can't do that sort of work. They can't look at code and see what it does in the real world in real time. They can make some stuff work but the moment things don't work they are lost. I have no doubt they can make a car that will follow a winding road with near absolute perfection. The problem is what that system does when it encounters something NEW that isn't accounted for in the code. One of the most amazing aspects of the human brain is its ability to fill in gaps in the available information and adapt its experience at incredible speed. It also gets us into trouble at times like with pilots misreading something they see and their brain goes "UFO" because their peripheral visual system has labelled it as "out of the normal - potential threat." This is my beef with non-technical people and other ignorant types. Not only do they NOT understand these nuances and details BUT they aren't interested in hearing them. The idiot who ran this sub not only killed himself he killed 4 others BECAUSE details were inconvenient. Go ask your wife about the history of aviation and how many times untrained geniuses built planes that engineers with knowledge and experience said "DON'T do that!" and it ended tragically. Better still ask your wife what happens when over 21tons of mass going at supersonic speed rams into a flat surface? Then ask her about the geniuses at SpaceX and their brilliant launch platform in Texas. If she's wondering point out the fuel flow rate of a Raptor engine and multiply that by 33. I heard a great description of the sub-clown "Brilliant Idiot"
