There hasn't been a single one of elon's companies that delivered on promised prices.

Falcon 9 is more expensive than promised. His tunnels weren't cheaper. His cars are more expensive than promised. Cybertruck is over $100k when he promised under $40k at the launch.

Focus on what his companies can deliver. That is real. His fantasy rockets that would be superior in all ways do not exist.

It is a scar. it reads more clearly in other pictures

The one good thing from oceangate was the fact that the CEO trusted his own life to his invention. He was in the sub when it imploded.

As stupid as he is, musk is unfortunately smart enough to know not to risk his own life in his own rockets.

I was discussing real world sounds in open air. Yes, destructive interference is something you have to account for when dealing with sound systems. A speaker playing the same sound in the inverse phase will cause issues, but a group of people, as was the topic, will never be anywhere close that precise.

If the concern is safety, as it is in this example, the concern is the worst case. And the worse possible case is when all the sounds interfere constructively.

It's not really a counterargument when I specifically said my logic of ignoring destructive interference doesn't apply in "situations designed to cause it" like two synchronized sinusoids. Most people are not synchronized sinusoids.

Sound is complicated. Its both physics and perception.

The decibel scale is logarithmic. If you double the energy you increase the dB level by 3. Two people will be about 3 dB higher, four people would be 6, eight people would increase the level by 9 dB, sixteen would be 12 dB higher and so on.

Some people in this thread are talking about destructive interference. That really only happens in noise canceling headphones, or situations designed to cause it. In open air, its not really an issue that comes up. I've never become quieter by playing an instrument with someone else. It just doesn't work like that.

What lets the monster hear you is the peak volume, not the minimum or average, so it will be close to the 3 dB doubling rule.

There's also perception. Your brain does a ton of filtering of sound information. Your brain is constantly trying to pick out the important sounds and ignore the rest. That's why the quieter severs seem quieter when something louder happens. Also that's why some people use white noise machines to sleep.

starship's payload to orbit is zero. No matter what is promised, a rocket that can only deliver payloads destructively to the bottom of the indian ocean is not a valuable launch vehicle. There are far more cost effective ways of making artificial reefs.

If you've followed elon musk's projects you would know that the only thing he knows how to do is over-promise and under-deliver. It would be incredible if the things he's promised happened, but none of them ever do. This starship will not be the exception.

the trump administration lost every court case from threatening state funding. this is not a response to a threat, this is what newsom wants.

spacex is also not starting from zero. They previously made the falcon 9.

No they can't. This is what's happened every time trump tried to cut state funding. Courts don't let the feds overstep their powers over states by threatening funding. Courts have ruled very consistently on this.

Just for comparison, on their 9th test flight the Apollo program they had already successfully reached orbit 5 times.

The 9th test flight of the Soyuz was their 7th time reaching orbit.

Elon's 9th attempt is his second time reaching the bottom of the Indian ocean. Shows the level of proficiency in spacex.
