Elon Musk just used a joke to perform an autopsy on the American economy.

Two economists go for a hike. They find a pile of shit. One pays the other $100 to eat it.

They keep walking. Find another pile. The second economist pays $100 back to eat that one.

They stop. Neither man gained a dollar. Both ate shit for nothing.

But on paper they just generated $200 in GDP.

Musk: “That basically would count as a job. This is to illustrate the absurdity of economics.”

That is not a punchline. That is the operating system of the federal government.

Every time a politician celebrates “record job creation” this is what they are describing. Not output. Not value. Not progress. Motion.

The entire bureaucratic machine exists to manufacture friction and then invoice for it.

Compliance layers built to justify the next compliance layer. Oversight committees that produce nothing but the need for more oversight. Consulting firms hired to audit the work of other consulting firms.

Trillions circulating through systems that have never produced a single thing you can hold in your hands. But the GDP number ticks up. So everyone applauds.

The shit gets eaten. The scoreboard moves. Nobody asks what actually got built.

This is why Washington treats AI like a five alarm fire.

AI does not play the friction game. It does not form a committee. It does not schedule a review. It does not file 400 pages of paperwork no one will ever read.

It just solves the problem.

And that is the one thing the machine cannot survive.

The government does not tax results. It taxes the process. The longer the process, the deeper the cut.

AI compresses a ten day workflow into seconds. There is nothing left to bill. Nothing left to tax. Nothing left to skim.

So they will spend the next decade warning you that AI threatens the economy.

What they will never say is what it actually threatens.

The illusion that activity equals progress.

The $200 economy where both men ate shit and called it a job.

The machines are not coming for your purpose.

They are coming to prove that half the economy never had one.

@joeltelling Great news. This will make it easier to purchase Prusa printers and it makes for a great partnership.

[E.I.C. @EIC15]

@MayoIsSpicyy I agree!

@meiselasb Awesome!

@avalonpenrose Looks like you got in just in time to hit the down cycle. I actually made $150.00 last year. Just lucky I guess.

@elonmusk Highly educated ignorance!!

Nicely Done

@elonmusk I have been following the space program since 1960 and Spacex is the best program to get us to the Moon and Mars. Please continue to support them.

@TheLightSpeedz @lulzbot3D It is interesting to me how much time we spend dissecting the Lulzbot printers when they are now one if the few companies in the US that make this level of printer. If US manufacturing is going to increase it will be predominantly through Additive Manufacturing.

@lulzbot3D Printed a replacement tent support piece on the 289. This printer does everything it is supposed to do.

[E.I.C. @EIC15]

@makersmuse I have found that printing PETG with a tool head temperature of 230 C and bed at 60 C works well on all my printers. I use glue for the bed.

@Invocent Very Nice. Great job on the modeling process. Kudo's to the students.

@StephenKing I always thought that they would make a movie from one of my favorite King short stories. "The long walk."

[E.I.C. @EIC15]

@ChuckHellebuyck Cura is an open source software program created in the Netherlands and written by David Braam and Ultimaker. Because the code is open source most 3D printer companies took the code and modified it for their machines. i.e. LulzBot Cura LE ( Lulzbot Edition ), Creality did the same

[Stephen King @StephenKing]

The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity....
What rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches toward DC to be born?
