    The nazi ww2 one is more similar to coil guns as the projectile is propelled by synchronized pulses. Rail gun is more similar to typical gun which has basically a single time pulse at the beginning (but magnetic field instead). There’s also light gas guns which have a gun power charge to move a plug that compressed a light gas like hydrogen Ina second chamber, which then bursts a membrane to then propel the projectile. Iirc sadam was doing light gas guns

    I’ve found the fastest ways to get religious folk that knock on my door to scurry in a hurry is:

    1. offer to listen as long as they like but only after they roast a bowl with you
    2. tell them to pay their fucking taxes

    Now if science folk came knockin that would be great over a roasted bowl as well

    “This sounds like a typical crazy Elon antic similar to his decision to try to ‘take on’ Sweden in his hatred of unions,” Laurie Burgess, an attorney at Burgess Law Offices representing the fired SpaceX employees. “Classic ‘act now and think later’ move and in this instance, surely a delay tactic to put off facing the repercussions of his unlawful actions.”
