Title: HS kid builds working sub, makes lifting weights seem stupid.
Post by: Parker on May 24, 2013, 11:04:36 AM
Does he lift? Please, it looks like this kid may get a full ride to MIT.
And then build Skynet and a synthetic muscle suit which can inflate or deflate.

Over the last 5 years I'm amazed at what these high school kids are doing.  In my day, the best science fair project was how long an egg takes to hatch.  Today they are building semi-conductors that can run on corn and saltwater and light up a whole country

You can thank google for that, in the old days if you couldn't do something it meant paying hundreds for specialised books/seminars, now it's a 1 second google search away.

Or go to Coral Castle and see how that dude did it...
Hopefully, these kids are not socially awkward---but with most kids not wanting to drive, and more wanting to sit in front of computer, there will be more Foghorn Leghorn's "nephews" running around.

i bet the kid is homeschooled

i remember taking a few years of algebra and not really having a single use for it in the real world. the school system is an evil enterprise, teachers are just passive and desperate for a job
