Elon Musk on the physics of truth:
“Truth is not an easy thing
But you can aspire to the truth. You can try to get as close to the truth as possible with minimum error while acknowledging that there will be some error in what you’re saying
This is how physics works. You don’t say you’re absolutely certain about something, but a lot of things are extremely likely
Aspiring to the truth is very important”
"When I started SpaceX, one of my friends got a compilation of rocket failures & made me watch the whole thing. I knew the probability of SpaceX failing was high" — Elon Musk
Rockets are hard.
