Any public data on this? I would love to collab on some predictive modeling for cases like this. There are some sources but couldn't find anything comprehensive enough to be accurate, need more historical context comparisons etc.
Echo much of the replies, but you have the answer in your question. Find the guy/gal nearby with a laith and some machining tools that loves the same stuff the build it, break it, figure out why it broke, if your both still working on it after iterations of brokenness its probably working out, at worst your learning and enjoying it along the way.
Couldn't agree more, negative feedback loops tend to reproduce the same outcomes. Maybe I'm pessimistic but seems like most folks aren't reading much at all beyond the headlines and tend to just regurgitate the negative prose on topics they haven't bothered to do basic research on, or repeat whats trending. Things change, economies shift, were all a part of the whole no matter how disconnected we think we are. The social reinforcement of gloom and doom becomes the market of consumption. It's time we put our heads together to produce solutions, focus on what we can do now, be proud of what we did today. Yesterday already happened, tomorrow will be the result of what we do with the time we have.
Congrats on the launch! Still early in my process but I found this YC Startup School video useful relative to your question. [0]:https://youtu.be/oWZbWzAyHAE
Unsure of your sources on "round holes" being indicative of torpedo "hit". Most modern torpedoes rely on implosive forces rather than terrestrial impact holes you might be thinking of from solid material striking a target. Pressure and density play a role. The holes referenced are more likely the remnants of the salvage attempts by the contracted company which assisted in the recovery. The Wikipedia article is fairly clear on the presence of holes cut during salvage. [0]:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kursk_submarine_disaster?wprov...
While the Russian Government is not well known, based on what we are told, for transparency it is not necessarily indicidave of a "conspiracy", if a cover up was attempted its more likely to save face due to the incompetence and lack of operational and functional rescue systems, four failed attempts to retrieve any remaining survivors before the final fatal fire which depleted the remaining oxygen the crew had. It is a bleak outcome and many other countries where aware of what occurred, based on sonar and seismic data etc. These countries were ready to deploy rescue efforts which were initially refused. Occam's razor per Wikipedia, "paraphrased as "The simplest explanation is usually the best one." [1]:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occam%27s_razor?wprov=sfla1
It Promethean, like sound design and synthesis etc., it involves a large degree of mathematical construction and convolution, abstract and concrete thinking an aptitude for visualization of multilinguistic constructs, utilizing a host of experiential and innate skills which can be as technical as you choose to research, understanding how hardware works with system design etc. It can be highly multidisciplinary in regards to any field. The device you are using took an emmense amount of combinational and collaborative intellect just to conceptualize, let alone execute the product as a whole. Forest through the trees... Understanding what the tools you are using are actually comprised of, beyond the physical materials, may open your eyes a bit.
Great post, not familiar with the language, definitely want to do more research to add more historical context for myself and learn a bit along the way. Interesting correlation with my experience with German, my first language. Moved to the US at a young age but kept conversational use at home and with family still in abroad. I decided to work on my fluency so took some classes during my undergrad, found out I was speaking a regional dialect, sounds like "slang" depending on where/how you learned the language. My family is from Hessen, my professor was from Berlin. High German is the "standard" but had never known due to lack of exposure in an educational/professional environment. After a lot of historical research I found a deep interest for how all languages progress, some meaning is gained and some is lost, or intrinsically disguised by different terminology. It's intriguing how much economics and social class norms and population mobility evolve many languages, among many other factors some of which are touched on in the blog.
