Yeah, it seemed pretty balanced and well thought out:
"Ploy for credibility, retreating even deeper into fantasy, pretense of reality, pure fantasy, contained within a world of fantasy, retreating into misinformation-fuelled fantasy world, runaway ego, less palatable, self-soothing fantasy bubble, fake statistics, blown deadlines, litany of bullshit, chronic inability, unprecedented publish delusion or deception, having drawn a poor hand, financial-cognitive nightmare, it’s hard to imagine anyone seriously believing that a night of delusional Disney Adult cringe, too childish to call a fraud, Musk’s increasingly-degenerate gambling run is slouching toward one last big coinflip"
Yeah, that's true for the incredible innovation in Neuralink and Paypal and OpenAI and Tesla, too. It's a total coincidence that Jeff Bezos and other billionaires fail.

Some people have a rather unhealthy obsession with Elon Musk, and ought to take a few hours off the Internet and get some sunlight.
It's right around the corner. The evidence that Musk is actually really dumb is riiiiight around the corner. And will continue to be, for a very long time.
His track record for being behind all these mindblowing innovations is off the record, but we don't like his face, so he doesn't deserve any credit for it!
It is incredible how SpaceX has accelerated its progress under Elon Musk.

For those of you who have experimented with potential C language successors, what are pros and cons and your experiences with them? I am talking about languages like Zig, Odin, C3, Hare, V and possibly Nim and Crystal, assuming that they are considered systems programming languages.
You generally want to avoid getting malware into your network, but it is even more important to avoid allowing for exfiltration of data. So the "copy via USB-stick" serves a purpose and makes it MUCH harder to exfiltrate data.
If you support free speech (not left, right, democrat or republican, or whatever), and you can afford it, I would strongly suggest that you subscribe to premium on X.
Before Musk, they were _shadowbanning_ people. That is the one of the most despicable political moves you can make.
Using his vast knowledge and understanding of complicated systems to enable organizations to deliver.
- Providing Starlink to hospitals and areas where they currently don't have a way to make emergency calls
- Revolutionizing solutions for enabling quadraplegics to have much better lives
- Pushing- and succeeding organizations like NASA and Boeing in several things space-related
- Revolutionizing battery and charging tech
A common denominator here is Elon Musk, whether you think he is a loser, or not.
