Eu achei sensacional, depois que um dos primeiros protótipos da Starship se esborrachou no chão pq o motor não religou, um sujeito twitou pro Musk "pq vocês não religam dois ou três motores, escolhem o que funcionar melhor e desligam os outros?"

Musk respondeu "pq nós somos idiotas" e esse passou a ser o procedimento.

Here is reason number #2317 that I love Elon Musk like a brother I've never met...

In English:

I thought it was brilliant that after one of the first Starship prototypes crashed into the ground because the engine didn't relight, some guy tweeted at Musk, "why don't you relight two or three engines, pick whichever one works best, and shut the others off?"

Musk replied, "because we're idiots," and that became the procedure.

That kind of instant openness to evidence is rare and precious - makes me want to pump my fist and yell "Fuck yeah!" Cherish it. If we stop producing men like this, civilization dies.

They did it! SpaceX has just caught their Starship rocket for the first time ever, marking the first recovery of a conventional orbital rocket upper stage in history!

This is one of the greatest engineering achievements in history. Congrats to the entire @SpaceX team! 🚀

Mechazilla catches Starship! Congratulations to the entire SpaceX team on this incredible achievement!

@2000mehmed @bdincaslan1 Kurumlar:

[Erdem Celikbilek @Erdemolov]

@2000mehmed @bdincaslan1 Bence kurumların bir işe yaramadığının çok açık bir göstergesi. Hiç kimsenin istemediği, kimsenin oy vermediği bir şey zorla kabul ettiriliyor.

@2000mehmed @bdincaslan1 Londra’da beyazların oranının %25 civarına gerilediği ve hükümetin geceyarısı gizlice Afgan erkekleri getirip otele yerleştirdiği bir ülkede göçün yavaşlamış olup olmadığından çok da emin olamıyorum.

[Erdem Celikbilek @Erdemolov]

@WSJ That’s not a flex. That shows the company is in incapable hands now.

[Erdem Celikbilek @Erdemolov]

@2000mehmed @bdincaslan1 Bütün batı dünyasında kamuoyu sürekli göç dursun diyor ama kim seçilirse seçilsin göç hızlanarak artıyor. İnsanlar kurumlara güvenlerini yitirdiler.

For a very simple reason: it's not a resources problem. It's an ideology problem.

The UN spent more than $7 billion over 13 years on its peacekeeping mission in Haiti. Thousands of troops, billions more in aid, NGOs on every street corner. When it left, the gangs moved in. Today they control the capital.

El Salvador, a country of 6 million people that was itself the murder capital of the world a few years ago, sends 2,000 soldiers and pays for most of it out of its own pocket. Within weeks, the leader of 400 Mawozo is writing to the UN Secretary-General, begging for "dialogue."

A fraction of the money. A fraction of the time. Real results.

The difference isn't technical. It's moral.

In the ideology that captured our institutions, taking out a gang leader is never "the solution." The solution is mediation, reintegration, "root causes," a ten-year disarmament program. The criminal is always a victim of the system. The real victim, the mother whose son was kidnapped, the village being extorted, becomes a line in a report.

Empathy for the executioner. Indifference for the victim.

It's the same software that broke the justice system, where people worry more about rehabilitating the repeat offender than about the safety of those riding the subway. The same one that broke schools, where nobody dares to demand anything anymore. The same one that tells young people having kids is a problem for the planet.

And it's the same structures, the same profiles, who ran Covid with absolute certainty and zero self-questioning.

What Elon exposed with USAID is exactly this: an ecosystem that lives off the problem, not off solving it. Haiti is the textbook case. Billions poured in after the 2010 earthquake, and the country is worse off than before. When your budget depends on the crisis, you have zero incentive for the crisis to end.

Bukele didn't invent anything. He's simply doing what every state did before this ideology took over: protect the innocent first.

Based.

@carlhancock Take that ridesharing revenue ($150B+) and subtract the cost of paying 16,000,000 drivers. That is the bet.
