It's also hard to imagine a business NOT wanting its own humanoid robot doing useful things and there are over 360M business on Earth today. This is what Elon means when he says Optimus is going to be 10X bigger than the next biggest product. If you are a $TSLA investor, each share you own is a never expiring call option into this future.

Big tunneling milestone! For the first time, TBC has continuously mined in a Zero-People-in-Tunnel (ZPIT) configuration. There is nobody in the machine (besides the videographer), which is simultaneously advancing forward and erecting a ring (i.e. building the tunnel). Each full ring weighs ~24,000 pounds. In the same way that full and rapid reusability is the holy grail for rockets, ZPIT continuous mining is the holy grail for Boring Machines.  This is the safest, fastest, and least expensive architecture to build tunnels.

The rate of improvement on the robot is absolutely insane

SpaceX's Starship has the potential to accelerate astrophysics research by decades. In this week's paper, the authors highlight Starship's substantial payload capacity (+100t) and cost-effective launch model, could allow NASA to deploy next-generation space telescopes much
