Sleep, love, family, fitness, community/crew, passionately doing work I’m inspired by, & creatively hobbying.
These are my priorities, in this order of importance. I hope they will provide some grounding through AGI/singularity wave that will crash upon us all soon.
2014 clip shows how much Elon Musk appreciates taxpayers.
Host: Taxpayers essentially loaned you, Tesla, almost 500 million dollars. How much of that do you still owe?
Elon Musk: We paid the whole loan back with interest and a prepayment penalty last year.
Host: Did you have to do that? It wasn’t due, was it?
Elon Musk: I know it was not due for another ten years or something.
Host: Why did you pay it off early?
Elon Musk: The taxpayers supported Tesla. We ought to repay them as soon as we can. And since we had the ability to do it and the stock markets were good, we thought, “Well, let’s pay it back with interest and a thank you note, by the way,” which said, you know, “I really, really appreciate it. Thank you.”
250 years.
Proud and grateful for the men who came before me.
Honored and humbled to live in the greatest empire to exist in the history of the world.
Tomorrow, we work to shape our country to align even more closely with the vision of those great men who bet their lives on the founding of America.
But today, we look back.
Today, we celebrate.
Happy 250th, America. Here’s to 250 million more.
“The assimilation of the principles, opinions, and manners of our country-men by the common education of a portion of our youth from every quarter well deserves attention. The more homogenous our citizens can be made in these particulars the greater will be our prospect of permanent union”
-George Washington
In Tokyo tomorrow? Celebrate America’s 250th birthday by watching the Tokyo Tower, Rainbow Bridge, and Tokyo Aqua Symphony illuminated! Snap a photo or video of Red, White, and Blue lighting up the night sky. We’d love to share your photos!

The communist doesn’t think to increase the quality of the grid. The communist demands that you decrease the quality of your life.
They make you ration the things that every other American gets to enjoy. Every single time.
Braindead activists cheered the shut down of Indian Point, a nuclear plant that supplied 25% of NYC’s electricity.
Five years later the state still hasn’t been able to recover, and now residents are asked to ration electricity.
23 years ago, we set out to prove that electric cars could be great – not just great electric cars, but the best cars overall.
We’ve gone from one electric sports car to
– Over 9 million vehicles on the road
– Model Y becoming the world’s best-selling car of any kind only 3 years after first deliveries
– 5 Gigafactories & other manufacturing sites across 3 continents
– The largest & most reliable fast charging network w/ over 80,000 Superchargers globally
– Energy generation & storage systems helping power homes & grids (over 1 million Powerwalls installed, 70+ GWh of industrial energy storage operating globally across 2,200+ projects)
Today, we’re bringing AI into the real world with autonomy @Tesla_AI and robotics @Tesla_Optimus.
Tesla is only getting started – a world of amazing abundance awaits
Water usage has been a hot topic in the AI data center world, but the numbers may surprise you.
According to the Manhattan Institute, data centers use 0.2 percent of daily water usage in the U.S. and that number has dramatically decreased in the past few years due to a new method: liquid cooling.
By moving to 45°C liquid cooling, AI factories in favorable climates can use dry coolers instead of conventional cooling-tower-based systems, cutting facility cooling water use from roughly 2.6M gallons per MW per year to near zero.
Liquid cooling enables AI factories to be both water and energy efficient, while creating opportunities for heat reuse and dispersal to local communities, allowing these factories to become energy grid assets.

Our house rule is you don't have to go to sleep if you're reading. So my 8 year old is now reading 6th grade reading level because he likes thinking that he's getting away with staying up after bedtime. Win/win.
Happy Father’s Day to all the dads and grandfathers out there helping inspire and prepare the explorers, builders, and dreamers of tomorrow. The future Starfleet is going to need a lot of recruits!
