RE: Steemstem Community: Respond to this with your opinions on the subject

in #steemstem7 years ago

Awesome idea! I like your approach to it as well and I'll be sure to keep reading and make some comments, unfortunately it's so far from my area of expertise (or even competence) that I don't think I could really justify a whole post trying to purport my opinions... I'll keep posted for future topics though.

My first point would simply be...

  • Do we need to vacuum out and re-pressurize the loop at all? Is it possible to create a seal between the train and the platform whereby people could exit the normal pressure environment in the train and enter the normal pressure environment on the platform, but without interacting with the low-pressure environment in the tunnel... I'm imagining something with a really well aligned train vs platform doors both with strong megnetic + rubber seals?

My immediate counterpoint is...

  • That'd work till a single rubber seal wore out/ got damaged then the whole thing is f*#cked
Sort:  

I don't think its out of anyones area of expertise. I will likely have errors in my final argument and thats kind of the point, it would be one thing if it were a professional institute or something but I feel everyone that can should make a post on it. Hell, what if someone makes a post suggesting something like your first point then you could make a post replying to them with your second point and thats what I want to build. I want to try to push the community out of their comfort zone, make posts that maybe are a little out of what they are used to doing and have interactions so I strongly encourage you to write a post.

As well, from your comment you have made, you are more than competent enough to make a post. As well, if there are 20-30 short posts then that is still okay, its just trying to push the community (and encourage them) to do something and support each other.

Fair enough... I'll have a think and see if I've got anything further of value to add! :)
