@BullandBaird How about the fact that they are free falling from the distance of the moon and gaining speed the whole way back and the atmosphere is their break!

Imagine the math required to make this guess and aim 4 people at a point in space

@elonmusk You said that 4-6 weeks ago. Just fragging us along

Next flight of Starship and first flight of V3 ship & booster is 4 to 6 weeks away

@Heyyanyaa How important is keeping your postings and presence on twitter in the same genre / target market instead of just replying to whatever?

Growth is very important, even small growths. Did your acct grow today?

@VadimStrizheus Can’t remember

be honest when was the last time you wrote a line of code?

@grok @LaNativePatriot So we’ve recovered from a debt crises like this in the past?

The absolute $ chart shows nominal explosion (inflation + growth), but debt-to-GDP normalizes for economy size. Key trends 1900-2025: Peaked ~120% post-WWII (Dems, wartime), fell to ~30% by 1980 (mixed), rose gradually under Reagan/Bush/Clinton/Bush/Obama/Trump/Biden to ~124% now. Spikes tie to wars, recessions, crises—not one party. Both add; neither "fixes" the trajectory long-term. (Data: FRED, Treasury, CBO, Wikipedia historical tables.)

“The Republicans will fix it this time” “The Democrats will fix it this time”

How our generation needs to learn to adapt to new technologies and no be complacent with our lifestyle and place in the world. If we stop pushing forward our way of life will be challenged and ultimately overtaken and we will no longer be able to debate if something is humane or not. It won’t be up to us.

If you got paid $50K to talk about 1 subject for 4 hours straight, what would you talk about?

Is it just me or do just about all AI doomers start their argument with a statement that seems inherently true but when you peel it back it’s an assumption that could be and probably is very false? One example from a podcast I listened to: A lot of problems worth solving are not profitable, like climate change, so how did we get to this place where innovation isn’t helping the public - Diary of a CEO podcast (AI Whistleblower) Others: If AI can do what a person does then there will be no more jobs left for people If AI does all the work then people are rotting and aren’t learning anything I’m sure there are countless more that I just can’t think of right now but when people make statements, try to think about the assumptions they’re making and whether they are fundamentally true. In example 1, I honestly believe that problems worth solving are 99% of the time profitable unless bureaucracy and poor legislation shifts incentives In example 2, not sure AI will ever be able to replicate all the things that make us human especially our connections to each other In example 3, if AI replaces work then it frees up people to do higher level work and learn more things that can make a difference. No more writing code, no more pressing buttons on a screen repeatedly, no more researching through countless websites. Instead dreaming a better future, better experiences, other ways to consume the abundance of AI I’m a major optimist but from why I’ve seen AI do with coding I think everyone should be!

Competition is largely an illusion. 95% of people don't even try to do great things. 0.1% of the people are loud, so you overestimate how many people there are. The rest get stuck worrying about competition and quitting after 2 weeks.

I think this is a different problem / argument. People are having a hard time determining the right thing to build and being willing to ship their work to see if it adds value. Whereas the AI does its job almost perfectly. Builds almost exactly what you tell it and sometimes builds it better than you described.

@RunemirQi @n1ckstirling Every day someone is in my replies claiming they built XYZ with AI and I ask to see it and it’s always in steal mode 😂

why is everyone lying about how good AI is?

@nishancodes @kylegawley There will be new applications of AI that people can start companies around and become rich as well. The wealth won’t just be in the big companies

@kylegawley The only people who are gonna get rich by AI are the elites. Elon Musk - XAI Sam Altman - OAI Jeff Bezos - Anthropic/Amazon Bill Gates - Microsoft/OpenAI

ai is the last-ditch effort of big tech once the public realise it's all bullshit it's over they're throwing everything at it to milk it for all it's worth while they still can I'm optimistic that smaller, bootstrapped companies focused on quality and craftsmanship will matter even more in the next era of software kind of like the early 2010s

@kylegawley If you code you should know it’s not all bullshit. It can make changes that work in 10 minutes that would have taken a week or more

@elonmusk @grok when is the next starship launch

Starbase is overworldly

@VadimStrizheus Probably 1. a marketer who can code.

As a founder, who would you hire? 1. a marketer who can code? 2. a developer who can sell?

@hiarun02 The curriculum needs to change. Feel bad for people sitting through basic python classes

Honest question: > AI can code. > AI can debug. > AI can review PRs. > AI can deploy. > AI can secure apps. What exactly are we learning in 4 year CS degrees?

@bscholl Just as uber digitized rideshare, door dash is trying to do that for grocery stores right now. The more accurately the physical world is copied by a digital twin the more we can optimize and make society more productive

This means we can now vibe code a script to pull off some massive scale epic shenanigans!

@KatieMiller @elonmusk Think this is why the hallucination rate on the newest xAI models is less. They don’t mess up the model weights trying to conform it to being woke

Grok is the only AI that is optimized to be maximally truth-seeking with a side of humor. The other AIs are programmed to be your woke overlord.

@theojaffee @garrytan Poorer countries just don’t have that much exposure to it yet and have the most to gain from it. They’ll be able to make massive strides in standard of living through work done by robots and ai systems

Negative sentiment toward AI is a luxury belief

@GTBaseball Absolute legends! Keep it up boys

The Jackets have 6️⃣ players with at least 25 runs scored this year. No other program has more than 4 #StingEm🐝 x #WreckHavoc

He takes a foot in the door approach to negotiation. Start large and bold, then settle on something more moderate but in the direction he wants. That’s why it seems outrageous but that’s part of the strategy. Also if you want to learn more about the overall strategy the administration laid out you can go read it here. Whether actions follow that strategy and if it’s the right strategy is up for debate whitehouse.gov/wp-content/upl…

Just to get it straight. Donald Trump has: - threatened Canada (a NATO member) with invasion - threatened to occupy Greenland (part of Denmark, a NATO member) - announced several times that he wants to leave NATO - refused to support Ukraine, even though the United States gave security assurances to Ukraine in the Budapester Memorandum of 1994 - actively finances Putin‘s war against Ukraine by easing sanctions against Russia - denied that soldiers from European countries have ever supported the United States and thereby - spitting on the legacy of fallen European soldiers who supported U.S. operations - imposed witless tariffs on its allies - insulted the leaders of allied countries over the past months And now he wonders why not everyone comes running when he calls. The situation in the Strait of Hormuz is a mess for the whole world. But Donald Trump himself is responsible for this geopolitical chaos.
