  • Needs to be either a percentage of yearly gross revenue averaged over the last 5 years, or a multiple of whatever they stood to gain from the policy (not just the individual plantiff).

    Whichever is higher.

    And don't let them write it off. You still have to pay taxes on the fine

  • There's a few reasons for that. One is obviously the having to get off the horse to deal with it but also dog poop smells way worse and doesn't degrade the same as horses does. It really doesn't take that long for horse poop to turn to pretty much dirt.

    someone who's shoveled or mowed over my fair share of both

  • Planing vs displacement.

    An aircraft carrier is limited by its hull speed to about 45 pretty much no matter how much power you give it.

    A slow jetski will do 65. I've heen on ones that would do that with the "slow" key where supposedly the fast key would let you do 85-90.

    I've also been on a tri-tune that did 75.

    An aircraft carrier is about the fastest displacement vessel but when you move into planing hulls its a different ball game.

  • They're vessels but I don't think they'd qualify as ships.

    If I ask you to name every ship in the Navy I do not want RHIBs, dinghys, tenders, lifeboats or rafts included, but if I ask for every vessel, then if the Navy owns a kayak I want it listed.

  • Different design processes and NASA has to appease Congress who likes to cut funding if a rocket blows up.

    But the Design-build-test-break-redesign-etc process that SpaceX uses is cheaper, quicker, and gives more data.

  • Correct. If you take a totally clean, disinfected nail, stick it in some lab grade brine until it gets rusty, and then stab yourself with it, there is a 0% chance of getting tetanus.

    You could technically have tetanus on something without it being covered in dirt. My point is tetanus bacteria lives in the dirt. But the rust has nothing to do with it other than making the metal more likely to cut or pierce you.

    People tend to think the rust is what causes it.

  • Fun fact: tetanus comes from dirt, not rust. But it has to get into your blood and typically that only happens when you get pierced by a piece of dirty metal, which will typically be rusty if it's in that situation.
