It shows 5 mins of surfing if you're lucky. More likely it shows him about to drop into his first big wave with cheering in the background, then fades to black

I think this is what makes for an interesting villain in general though across all media. That uncomfortable feeling of relating to them or seeing they have a point even though their actions are clearly reprehensible

I'd think the fact they've saturated the US market is exactly why it'd be too valuable to give up. They'd lose a ton of revenue, tanking their valuation. They may be better off selling. From there they could prob just clone it and promote a competing service in those unclaimed markets using a portion of the extra sale price they get for maintaining (and selling a product with) US market dominance

This is really cool, but it feels kind of insulting to call this equivalent to landing people on the moon in 1969. To bring humans to the moon and back alive and healthy, with 1960s computer tech, seems a much more significant feat. Plus the huge risk that astronauts took, made very real by preceding and subsequent deaths and close-calls. Sounds like this will be an important accomplishment and undoubtedly technically difficult, and the speed record part is particularly cool. Howevert it's ultimately still an unmanned probe, which seems incomparable to a manned mission imo.

According to the article, the theorem was named for him out of respect for starting a school-society thing whose members in turn developed & popularized the theorem. So you should perhaps have at least some doubt

Why not go with a nice traditional name like Methany or Merimeth?
