yes. there’s two branching discussions here:

• Space as a scientific topic, it needs to be understood. Our observation of reality is very local, and although we can prove that some of our assumptions about physics, life and civilization work on our neighborhood, it doesn’t mean that they’re the same everywhere. That alone is sufficient reason for me, to explore.
• Space as the new frontier. Many if not all exploration done on planet Earth has been, in some shape or form, resource-motivated. Lands, food, medicine, minerals, routes, are all found through exploration and normally through people spending money looking for a return over investment. Space is no different.

I think the interesting part is where this two branches touch: If we ever plan on capturing an asteroid for mining, the technology needs to be there to do it, and hopefully the technology is about the benefit of all humankind. This kind of development is showing us the way to move forward and solve problems. Imagine a world when we don’t need to destroy ecosystems in order to get iron because all iron comes from off-world.

In Chile, it’s a pretty common idiom to say “cachai?” after a sentence in the same way you’d say “you get me?”. it’s widely accepted that is comes from the verb “to catch”.

do it in exchange of a share of the profit. nothing turns people off like sharing.

I agree with every advice given here, I’d just add that you need to be proactive: in some interviews you’ll be given a very lax list of requirements and that means that your capacity for risk assessment is being tested, you need to ask questions so that those very lax requirements slowly become very specific requirements. Risk assessment also play a part when you’re determining scaling, security, and deployment concerns, and you win a lot of points by at least mention them, that’s what is expected of you as an engineer with experience. Maybe you’re interviewing for a junior position and the interviewer will say “don’t worry about that for now”, but what if he’s expecting you to worry and you didn’t?

are you saying that there’s no organized crime in Brazil?

(technically not a planet but) I’m putting my money on Europa, we just have to wait until JUICE does its flyby on '31-'34 and we get to lick those plumes

genuinely in the same boat, my phone has been in vibrate since '05

Edward Scissorhands.

Don’t know why. And I didn’t even see it for that long, but something about the makeup, music, general ambiance, the scene when he’s offered normal hands, it affected my child self profoundly. To this day, I can’t watch the movie without feeling very anxious. My partner has tried to watch it with me a couple of times and I just can’t.

the problem I have worth my robo vacuum is hair, I live with a long haired human and a long haired cat, so the vacuum needs constant maintenance. I normally resort to a broom…

there’s a not so small possibility that development of meat growing tech and patent expression will give us a niche market of not-available-before-for-ethical-reasons meats, like white rhinoceros burgers, cat and dog steaks, human fillets.

talking to girls is not that hard, dude

you have access to the internet, an eng degree and you at least write English fairly well. Are you looking for only local jobs? how about remote opportunities? Many companies will hire remote work with no experience, there’s also job brokers, where you are hired for a project and then moved to another. These are by no means the best kind of job, but they can get you back on your feet.

Demi Lovato’s first album, Don’t Forget. It absolutely slaps but it’s difficult for me to talk about it.

I don’t hate commercials themselves, advertisement itself for me is natural, everyone advertises. My problem is when they’re unprovoked. An individual looking for a job will search for job offers, which are ads. A person who’s watching a news segment about a hurricane is not looking to also buy a smell-water-bottle.

can you explain how you participate in these clubs? where I’m from, there are restaurants and coffee shops that offer board games for you and your group, as in, you already know the people you’d be playing with, and they’re normally not a place you’d go by yourself, waiting to find someone to play with.
