Don't worry guys, this technically infeasible bubble market in space will help bolster the profits from my other unprofitable venture in space, thus making my vision of a literal burning money pit on Mars 1% less economically nonviable.

You’re telling me SpaceX is about to become a publicly traded, market leading corporation controlling transportation of high value cargo and people to remote frontiers? Welcome back, Dutch East India Company.

About a ~ dozen years ago it became clear to me it is physically impossible for autonomous cars to solve most of the problems caused by cars, but also, the people who think otherwise would probably have to figure it out on their own. Welp. They're figuring it out on their own.
Waymo costs $97 more (13× the price) and still 9 minutes slower than Caltrain on the same San Francisco → Palo Alto route (despite having Waymo freeway access and this Caltrain being local)

I will never get over how reflexively all of Trump's people lie, even when they know their lies will be easily exposed. They've learned so well from his example.

SpaceX going public to pump money into AI & in-space datacenters... Pivoting the entire fate of SpaceX on an extreme chance, to fuel a risky venture completely separate from the actual vision of the company...Such a ridiculously stupid move if they actually go through with it.
Here's why I think SpaceX is going public soon. https://t.co/KEZIjhEsTH
