The Atlanta Braves have revealed their new City Connect uniforms 💪





I'm pleased to reveal my highest resolution photo of the complete SLS in flight, captured entirely using sound-activated triggers from cameras placed near the pad. Thanks to the technique used the image is ~300 megapixels! A ridiculously hard shot to get, but worth the effort.


I own SpaceX. I participated in a private round. I was also an investor in xAI. Now here's my honest read: The cult of personality around Elon Musk gives his companies an excessive premium that is off the charts. Tesla is suffering and still carries a valuation that defies conventional metrics. SpaceX is reportedly raising $75 billion. That would be three times larger than any IPO in history. So why did I invest? Because I think Starlink alone is worth a fortune. I believe the idea of orbital data centers — getting energy from the sun, not the electricity grid, beaming it back down to earth via satellite technology is fascinating. It sounds like science fiction right now. I think it becomes fact. And I think he's better positioned to do it than anyone else on earth. But here's the lesson that really drives my thinking. I missed Amazon. $10,000 invested in the Amazon IPO on May 15th 1997 would be worth almost $20 million today. The guys who bought it were right. I wasn't. I'm not making that mistake again.
