@SpacBobby I keep seeing the claim RKLB sent 30% of objects into space last year. But I also keep seeing the claim SPCX did 90% of all launches last year. Is there a difference between sending objects to space and launches, or is somebody lying?

[Neo Stapledon @NeoStapledon]

@Web3Marmot You’re just speculating. Analogy is not proof, and you obviously set out to pick the one comparison that confirmed your bias. Cisco wasn’t run by the greatest entrepreneur of our time. It didn’t control 90 percent of access to the internet. You don’t know the future.

@bestofStarTrek Three words: special effects budget.

[Neo Stapledon @NeoStapledon]

@pensandpoison That is the original aspirational goal of Universities. It is a beautiful goal. It is not what 99 percent of Universities in 2026 actually are. It is even more certainly not what they sell, which is a promise of success.

@DisaffectedPod Maybe it will go back after robots can work the night shift. But I get it. How many people really want to go to Walmart between 11 PM and 6AM? Not enough to pay human staff to be there.

[Neo Stapledon @NeoStapledon]

@NightSkyToday Me, obviously.

@lynk0x And here I thought the goal was to make a difference in the world. Imagine if Elon had retired at 31 when he got $180 million for Paypal. Retire in the prime of your life? What a boring, meaningless waste.

@kevinxu There are lots of explanations. Off the top of my head, BTC, ETH, SOL, TSLA, NVDA, MU, RKLB.

@idksmgdh @gietzschean What Elon said to Bob Iger . . .

@SawyerMerritt @SpaceX Just 10 out of 100 at Fidelity. 😒

@cryptofergani I’m not allowed to say chip and space stocks?

[Neo Stapledon @NeoStapledon]

@franortizUVL @SteveOnSpeed That is the only correct answer.

@NoLimitGains That’s literally every IPO. People buy companies they think will grow into the future, but might not. Every time. At least SpaceX, if it works, has a big, inspiring future.

[Neo Stapledon @NeoStapledon]

@VraserX Of course! But I doubt it will work that quickly, at least at first. Probably more like a series of treatments over months.

[Neo Stapledon @NeoStapledon]

@AdityaInvests90 Maybe because SpaceX makes real things, the most complex and impressive machines ever built, rather than running a brainrot social website? Maybe people see a bigger future in going to the stars than churning digital content? Numbers change. Vision is singular.

[Neo Stapledon @NeoStapledon]

@0xReflection So, what your saying is, buy the IPO, wait 15 days till QQQ buys a bazillion of it, then sell for a tidy profit?

@theficouple Depends on how you have it. If 90 percent is locked up in 401ks / IRAs then you can’t live on it until you retire (unless you are willing to pay massive penalties). Even in taxable brokerage, most people aren’t going to want to lock up all their capital producing income.

@jeremyct Unless you live in Monaco, there is zero chance the cheapest house in your city is $380,000.
