The Big Think

Just a silly little stop motion movie I posted to YouTube. It was good practice. Looks kinda jankey at the beginning but it clears up after a few seconds.

It’s really only news to a few of the readers here (you know who you are), but publishing that Cease and Desist letter might now be considered copyright infringement.
Yes, that’s right, and it’s an indication of just how bad the copyright situation has gotten.

Wired has posted a short video on SS2. As usual, the media is couching it in all-or-nothing terms (”if they can’t pull it off it might be a long time before you and I might get our spaceflights”). There are a lot of post-deniable weasel words in that kind of reporting, but I’m glad to see Scaled on the job. Of course, if they do pull it off, some other schmuck reporter can just as easily make up another stupid question to rattle the public and investors into thinking the whole project is a deathtrap. My nominations go to the fear-of-lawsuits to environmental worries.

Get the freaking “unbiased” reporters out of the way and let the entrepreneurs do the heavy lifting.
