You are a NCIMBY?
No crashing in my backyard?
- kevinventullo 5y agoOr perhaps NOMBY: Not Over My Backyard.
- earleybird 5y agoWhy yes, yes I am :-) My back yard, and anyone elses.
- Justin_K 5y agoLOL most definitely. If Boeing can't get it right, I sure won't trust a "move fast and break things" approach to flight.
- throwawayben 5y agoThere's an almost perfect test case of the two approaches in SpaceX's Dragon Vs Boeing's Starliner. The "move fast and break things" approach seems to work better.
- marcosdumay 5y agoMove fast and break things (on the lab) is certainly the way to do it. The problem is that breaking things on the lab is expensive, and some companies push it into the normal operation when they already make a profit.
- Justin_K 5y agoWhen a rocket is launched out of a remote area to over the ocean, with a self destruct button, I'm not really worried. When a glorified quad copter with cheap LIPOs is over a populated area, I am worried.
