Indeed, it was *because* I was not from the aerospace industry that SpaceX made such radical breakthroughs. Same for Tesla.
Those in the industry would have if they could have.
The reason why Elon Musk started working on reusable rockets
"I started reading quite a bit about rockets to try and understand why they're so freaking expensive
If one could make them reusable like airplanes, then the cost of rocketry would drop dramatically
The cost of the fuel was maybe anywhere from 0.2% to 0.5% of the cost of the rocket
I came to the conclusion that there wasn't really a good reason for rockets to be so expensive and that they could be a lot less even in an expendable format
"Nobody had really been able to make a reusable rocket work... but if we can do that, then that would really be the key breakthrough"

The Bybit hack is officially the largest crypto heist in HISTORY.
$1.46B+ stolen and still counting. That's 16% of ALL previous crypto hacks COMBINED.
Here's what happened, what we know, and why this could change everything 🧵👇
ChatGPT was just step 1.
Google dropped a whitepaper on the next evolution of AI: Agents.
Now, everyone—from Satya Nadella to Jensen Huang—is talking about them.
Here’s why AI agents are the next big thing. Let's break it down. 🧵
Congratulations to @realDonaldTrump (+ the token deployer) for creating $TRUMP and deploying 10% of the tokens supply over a single side of liquidity, using Liquidity Book on @MeteoraAG
Perfect use case and example of scaling out of an illiquid token and earning fees, without impacting price.
Bravo.
🚨JOE LONSDALE: "People don't realize just how broken Government bureaucracy is. Think of the worst company you know in silicon valley that went bankrupt 30 years ago and imagine someone just kept pumping money into that company. It's more retarded than anything you've seen in a long time.
America used to have hard tests to get into positions where you could make decisions. Then in 70s we said tests were racist and we can't fire people; so the last 40 years things got dumber and then in the last 10 years we added in virtue signaling. So now things have gotten beyond broken.
You have to take a chainsaw and cut a lot of broken stuff and then you have to make sure it doesn't get stupid again. We must bring back tests, we must bring back accountability."
