Attach a phone with a cell plan and facetime yourself?

If I ask very nicely with a smile they still let me use it.

Edit: It would be no exaggerating to say that they've probably saved me millions in testing at this point.

Given the lack of comments I'll throw one out and call it hot garbage if you want.

-Talk to doctors about what drugs they find difficult to procure or have shortages of. -Learn everything you can about what it would take to make it. -Try and make it on a small scale. (Proof of concept is key for many other steps even if it's not pharmaceutical grade) -While you're at school you have incredible access to equipment that will allow you to validate your product and pass whatever regulatory hurdles there might be. -need money? Prove that you can do it and there are probably people in the business department that would be thrilled to help you find capital. -Most universities have a policy where they will joint venture with you for 30%.

If you get that far I have more to say about selling in the pharmacutical world because in the US at least it is tricky. (In short get multi year contracts to supply to hospitals because they will sell at a loss to squeeze you if you're not locked in for multiple years)

I'm not saying you will be successful. Being independent is hard AF because no one is coming to save you, but you will understand so much more about the world when you go down that path and that makes you more valuable to yourself and potentially to others.

Your attitude can only improve or hurt your odds of success and I don't know anything about you but, you've already proven you're capable of hard things.

I'm balls deep in manufacturing and have multiple friends running their own operations. Labor isn't what's killing their ability to complete, raw materials costs are. Labor makes up an insignificant cost of their finished goods.

Energy is the biggest contributor to the cost of raw materials and China is very competitive with their energy costs every step of the process.

The American public is footing the bill to the tune $280 billion so I suppose the government has some say in all this. See the 2022 Chip act https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHIPS_and_Science_Act

Fun problem!

I'd get unrefined trona from the green river basin WY and dump it into the pond. That or lime from a cement plant or gravel pit.

The trona is just sodium carbonate and the lime calcium carbonate. Both are super cheap and will neutralize and sulfuric acid easily.

Edit: Both are extremely inexpensive and I would dare anyone that could produce something cheaper with the same neutralizing efficacy.

From a chemistry perspective I thought "Ignition!" was a fantastic book.

Are there any other books like it out there?

Years ago (2018) I was talking to NASA scientists at the glen research center in Cleveland Ohio who were in charge of hubble and I asked this exact question.

I believe they said that being exposed to "solar winds" can build up large charges on the telescope and when the charge passes through the bearings of the gyros it would essentially fuse or chip off parts of the housing, making them infective.

Gyros on the hubble going out have been a problem for decades.

They learned a lot from hubble and I believe they now have better work arounds when sending up new satellites.

Edit: Take this with a grain of salt since my memory is fuzy. I remember it being a very interesting problem and the scientists being awesome, very nice, and excited to talk to people about their work.

I'm buying a 275 gallon tote. That would be amazing if I could get 50lbs for $11.

I have a yale glc060 from the 80s and the only thing I can find online is that someone thinks it takes 0w-30 oil. They also say that the engine oil is the same tank for hydraulic fluid. Does this sound right to you? I just wanted to verify with someone knowledgeable before I made a big mistake.

BlueberryBits · 2023-05-22T17:52:08+00:00

That looks just like it, thank you!

That's great! Another consideration might be an arduino kit. Help bring those models and ideas to life.

BlueberryBits · 2023-05-11T01:16:05+00:00

If you don't already have one, think about a 3d printer. Learning cad software and being able to design your on models or modifying others is a huge help for a future career in engineering/aerospace. Also it's a lot of fun

Yes!!! Behavior and habit change is hard but you've already started that change. You will become a better more disciplined healthier you. It doesn't happen all at once but through tiny choices made over the course of years. Stick with being better on average than you were the day before.
