Putin abs

Putin warns about showing chiseled 6 pack

“Specifically, gay spectators should remain fully clothed at all times, and resist the temptation to unveil their chiseled biceps or shredded abdominals. under no circumstances should gays oil, grease, or otherwise lubricate their torsos in an effort to highlight their glistening, ripped pectorals.”

et tu, putin?
2015-06-18:

Photos of Putin looking shirtless, healthy, and powerful are a way to reassure the public that there’s no need to worry. If Putin is fine, then Russia is fine. But consider the implication of that assertion: if Putin is not fine, then neither is Russia. The scary part is that’s probably correct.

Sky Whale

755 passengers, could land on existing runways. someone needs to do a spacex for the airline industry (which has been stagnant for decades)

Compared to the typical wing used today, the active wings will be longer from tip to tip, with an active air flow control system – eccentric turbine inside the wing near to the fuselage – which could redirect the laminar air flow and turbulences and at the same time produce electric energy for the hybrid engines (4 oversize electric-fuel engines). Projected advances in battery technology enable a unique, hybrid turbo-electric propulsion system.

On Nadella

i look forward to competing with actual engineering.

Nadella is not the type of leader who would pound the table with his fist, instead taking a more thoughtful approach to problem solving. In that regard, he’s more in the mold of Nike CEO Mark Parker.

“He’s more cerebral and has great product depth, and is very, very good at getting the right people in the right jobs. Very hard working guy. Very outward focus, and very product oriented. He will be a guy that people enjoy working for, but at the same time, if you don’t deliver or don’t have the right skill set, he won’t hesitate to make changes.”

Towards the far lands

On March 28, 2011, Kurt J. Mac loaded a new game of Minecraft and started walking. His goal for the day was simple: to reach the end of the universe. Nearly 3 years later, Mac is still walking, has quit his job and has made virtual exploration his career. Kurt has been travelling since March 2011 and as of September 2018 is expected to take another 20 years to reach his destination.

Torus Earth

what a donut planet would be like.

Can toroid planets exist? It is not obvious that a toroid planet is stable.
For all practical purposes planets are liquid blobs with no surface tension: the strength of rock is nothing compared to the weight of a planet. Their surfaces will be equipotential surfaces of gravity plus centrifugal potential. If they were not, there would be some spots that could reduce their energy by flowing to a lower potential. Another obvious fact is that there exists an upper rotation rate beyond which the planet falls apart: the centrifugal force at the equator becomes larger than gravity and material starts to flow into space.
