SORIA — Strategic Orbital Reconnaissance Interferometer Array I have a $50B idea Congress will actually fund. Official pitch: Next-gen space domain awareness + missile defense. Real goal: 5 satellites in pentagon formation creating a virtual telescope the size of Spain.

If all humans suddenly lost the ability to lie, what industry would collapse first?

@GuntherEagleman Q

I keep hearing conservatives are sharper than the democrats. This question should settle a few arguments. 🤣 No looking it up. What’s your answer?

@Sassafrass_84 @PigWar Hang out in an Apple store for 10 minutes your question will be answered.

Guys... my friend @PigWar is trying to convince me to change my phone from Samsung to an iPhone. I have been a LOYAL customer of Samsung for years. She says it's better. A heck of a lot better. What say you? Team Samsung or Iphone?!?

@techiedani @robotaxi I'm looking forward to owning one.

Full tour of the new production Cybercab! @robotaxi

Waymo has paused its service in Atlanta after multiple vehicles got stuck after driving into flooded areas. Last week, Waymo issued a software recall over a defect that could let vehicles drive into flooded roadways. I guess they may need another brain update.

@skdh Bill Gates oh sorry Mr. Burns has the solution.

Researchers from University College London found that atmospheric pollution from satellite launches and them burning up on reentry offsets a small amount of global warming. They modelled rocket launches and satellite re-entries up to 2029 by extrapolating current numbers and find that soot from kerosene rockets absorbs sunlight in the stratosphere. After the atmosphere adjusts, this reduces the energy reaching the lower atmosphere by 6.40 milliwatts per square metre. That is not much; it offsets roughly 0.2% of current human-made warming. It also comes with a small amount of ozone loss, though at levels far below the roughly 2% from chemicals regulated under the Montreal Protocol. The big open question is how much these numbers will increase as the number of satellites go into the hundreds of thousands.

@skdh What is the number to the red phone.

Astrophysicists have a new, and slightly terrifying, explanation for the Fermi paradox, or the question of why we have found no evidence of intelligent extraterrestrial life.

@niccruzpatane Diesel exhaust is truly evil.

School buses need to be Electric. It should be a priority. Over 25 Million students are transported by Diesel School buses everyday in North America. Diesel exhaust is classified as a known human carcinogen. If anyone has ridden in one, they know these fumes don’t just emit out of the tailpipe, they linger inside the bus as well. It has that distinct smell. Plus these buses are always idling and polluting the surroundings of children outside. Keep in mind that children inhale 50% more air per body weight than adults. Long-term effects are linked to impacts on brain development, reduced academic performance, and even developmental delays. Switching to EV removes that exposure entirely. The buses won’t emit any fumes, they can be autonomous and safer, as well as save the cities and schools a ton of money in maintenance costs as an added benefit. Every time I see one on the road I think of this stuff. I hope the future comes quickly.

@bevedoni @karpathy xAI didn't offer him enough cash? @Grok make up a reason.

maybe dumb question, but why didn't @karpathy join xAI?

@JonnyRoot_ Waste of good film stock.

It’s crazy to see how much effort Christopher Nolan put in to film “The Odyssey” completely in IMAX film, but did not put in the same effort to properly cast characters & develop proper dialogue for the movie… A beautifully shot film tainted by DEI. Sad.

My dad hated our neighbor for 11 years. Said he was rude. Cold. Arrogant. Every morning the guy ignored everyone and drove off without waving. One winter my dad slipped on ice outside our house. Bad fall. Couldn’t move. Guess who sprinted across the street first? The “arrogant” neighbor. Called the ambulance. Covered my dad with his own coat. Stayed with him for 40 minutes in freezing weather. At the hospital my dad asked: "Why were you always so unfriendly?" The man looked confused. Then said:

@RealPengo @elonmusk @morganlinton This deserves more likes, 𝕏 algo you are failing.

@elonmusk @morganlinton Get your dose of Bernie memes

Okay, so initial feedback on Grok Build after spending a day with it. The TUI UX is amazing, easily the best UX I've seen for a coding agent, the mouse control blew my mind, it's really nice. Quality of the model - it's okay, not bad, but not exceptional. I'd say Opus 4.6/5.7, GPT 5.5, Composer 2 and GLM 5.1 write better code. Right now it's on par with something like SWE-1.6 from Cognition, and similar in many ways, it's fast, but is building at more of an MVP-level vs. a production grade. The only thing that is driving me crazy, and the biggest feedback I'd have for the team is: I can't get it to run for more than a minute or two. No matter what I try, it even responds saying things like, "sorry I will run for longer," but then it runs for like 30 seconds. Here's my longest run so far, 1 minute and 43 seconds, kinda felt like a small victory. It always ends by saying something like "Keep going? Just reply with anything and I'll keep building" So you really have to just sit and babysit it if you want to get any coding done. Overall though, super impressed, and I know this is an early beta so it is already exceeding expectations. I'd give it a 6/10 right now, which for an early beta is solid. I think the team did a great job being transparent about where it's at, releasing early, saying they released early, and getting feedback. Really looking forward to continuing to use it and watching it get better. Bullish on Grok Build 💪

@KatKanada_TM Well then goodbye.

@Kekius_Sage Sigh, sure why not we don't need to adhere to basic science.

Could consciousness exist independently of our brain?

@creation247 Because you need them to be so it reinforces your belief system.

If atheists are so smart why are they so unhappy?

@BobMurphyEcon Meyer is making a cosmic sized strawman argument.

I'm curious to hear what objections people have to this argument.

@JohannesAchill Dark matter comes from infinite parallel dimensions that are stuck in a loop. There I solved everything.

Most modern physics is really really bad metaphysics.

@EricLDaugh Tim Cook is back stabbing traitor he shouldn't be there.

🚨 JUST IN: President Trump made a POINT to President Xi that he brought the top 30 business leaders in the world SPECIFICALLY for these talks — including Elon Musk, Jensen Huang, Tim Cook and more "We ask the top 30 in the world, EVERY single one of them say yes. And I didn't want the second but the third of the company!" "I wanted only the top. And they're here today to pay respects to you, to China." "And they look forward to trade and doing business. It's going to be totally reciprocal on our behalf." LFG @ElonMusk!

@PierrePoilievre Because you attacked Trump instead of going after the Liberal government.

Why isn’t housing affordable in Canada?

@micsolana Ride Nolan's jock, ride that thing.

ok we’ve had our fun but the truth is nolan doesn’t make bad movies. i’ll be seated.
