@elonmusk @Starlink should provide internet service to Shinkansen Bullet Trains and perhaps even regular train service. Sell subscriptions and provides Japan with revenue and tax money. Can really benefit their economy.

- Engineer: I invented this new thing. I call it a ballpen 🖊️
- TwitterSphere: OMG, people could write horrible things with it, like misinformation, propaganda, hate speech. Ban it now!
- Writing Doomers: imagine if everyone can get a ballpen. This could destroy society. There should be a law against using ballpen to write hate speech. regulate ballpens now!
- Pencil industry mogul: yeah, ballpens are very dangerous. Unlike pencil writing which is erasable, ballpen writing stays forever. Government should require a license for pen manufacturers.

@tunguz I wish people would stop referring to recommender systems as “algorithms”, as if The Social Network was some kind of accurate depiction of reality. Or perhaps we should start saying, “I’m in” every time we log into a network.
