The medium in which you create does not define your success.
DHH used sublime and rails and has more value worth of cars than I have earned in my entire lifetime combined.
Don't listen to Twitter for what success is.
This is why we need competition and open weights in AI. Imagine a world where only Anthropic sat as the moral arbiter of acceptable speech. Fucking ridiculous. (Grok of course did it no problem, same too with Kimi K).
@elonmusk@elonmusk as a DevOps Engineer I’ve been saying they should do this for years. Makes complete sense. The cloud will actually be in the cloud. Image a SpaceX platform similar to AWS, Azure, GCP, etc. It would be an amazing project to work on.
🚨BREAKING: Marco Rubio sends a chilling message to the EU bureaucrats after they fined X for €120m:
"This is an attack on the American people by a foreign government. The days of censoring Americans online are over!"
The EU has no idea whats coming…
The European Commission’s $140 million fine on @X is an abomination.
It’s an attack on a great American job creator & it’s an attack on the free speech of every American.
Trump should impose SANCTIONS until this travesty is reversed.
Insane: Buffalo WR Victor Snow had a WIDE-OPEN touchdown but decided to step out of bounds in the 3rd quarter down 15 points...
Snow needs to be investigated by the FBI.
Gambling is genuinely ruining the sport 🤦♂️

Imagine the thing you choose to critique Elon Musk on is work ethic 😂
Elon Musk:
• Works 80–120 hours per week during peak periods
• Jobs created (direct + supply chain): ~600,000
• Salaries paid out by his companies: ~$110 billion
• Taxes he paid in just 2021: $11 billion (largest tax bill for an individual in history)
• Value created for shareholders: Trillions
• Drives hundreds of billions in economic impact
• Brought human spaceflight back to America (SpaceX)
• Helps paralyzed patients control computers with their thoughts, giving new meaning to their lives
• Created Starlink, enabling people to access internet anywhere
Elon’s wealth increases because his companies build products and services people love, companies that generate hundreds of billions of dollars in economic value in the U.S. and around the world. He isn't buying yachts, expensive houses or cars. He's continuously pushing his chips into the middle of the table and creating companies that are changing the world. His wealth is tied up in those companies, thus he only pays big tax bills when he sells stock, which is rare.
