husband to @sanyatimar - let's paint the deserts black!

@isaiah_p_taylor which is why subsidies are a disaster

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

There is really almost no source of energy I am not enthusiastic for, it is that important. Solar? Let's pave the deserts. Nuclear? Hell yes let's get you some pressure vessels. Coal? Pass me the shovel big dawg. Oil? Peat? Gas? Wind? Trash? Use it or lose it my man

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

@isaiah_p_taylor Yeah, my heart believes one thing and my wallet another

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

@connorkapoor I love these and I love the fields of synchronized red lights at dusk

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

@SauravShroff_ We'll have to put a pause on the whole spaceflight thing until we can find something to fill all that vacuum

[Johnny Hot Pocket @billandhisclips]

gotta love chobani flips

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

@YIMBYLAND does AHC have a spicy brisket breakfast taco lineup?

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

@sanyatimar @karanbhangui @CentralMarket find me at the central market cafe

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

@nickgalano @isaiah_p_taylor For sure, I think you can just clone it though. A chinese company will do this eventually and it will work well and be very vuable. Why not cut to the chase?

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

I want a16z to put all of their money into funding a single starship competitor. There still aren't enough launch vehicles

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

@Gundermgg There are not enough large reusable rockets, that's the point. It's not a mystery how to monetize them at this point

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

@nickgalano @isaiah_p_taylor What is the correct amount of money to be supplied to a starship competitor? Can we use that?

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

@nroidx @mihirneal Allocation of what? Not sure what you're saying

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

@vizience @isaiah_p_taylor Correct, and I would not suggest giving the money to NASA. But either the human space age does not outlast Elon's lifetime, or there exists at least one other individual capable of managing a large reusable rocket program. I know which I think is more likely

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

@dylan_robideaux @isaiah_p_taylor Blue origin + landspace soon. It is not simple but money is absolutely a requirement

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

@mihirneal Yes it is difficult and the payoff if successful is staggering. Is that not worth venturing some venture capital? Or is the idea that there will only ever be exactly one entity capable of economical spacedlight?

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

@mihirneal Also bear in mind we're talking about the second company to use this architecture not the first

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

@mihirneal Do you think the marginal dollar is better spent on software/fintech or orbital launch?

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

@credistick Do you think the marginal dollar is better spent on software/fintech or orbital launch?

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

All I do is win btw. Bad news for the enemies of freedom

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

@isaiah_p_taylor @pmarca it is within your power to throw money at rockets instead of betting markets, several of your portcos would appreciate it

[Brian Timar @briantimar]

@isaiah_p_taylor The money is necessary but not sufficient. They have access to the talent and it would be much higher ROI than a lot of their software / crypto stuff
