Musk also launched SpaceX to get humanity to Mars, Starlink for global Internet, Boring Company to decrease traffic congestion, and Neuralink to improve brain I/O

How many of these ventures fit the quadruple requirement of:

1) Being practical, not purely aspirational

2) Not burning more money than they make

3) Not constantly requiring capital raises

4) Not needing government subsides and corporate welfare

Musk is 50 and hasn't managed to light up all the 4 requirements at the same time. Enough with the BS. Especially here people should be skeptical because game recognizes game. In SV all the aspirational stuff is vaporware and BS. Mars, tunnels and brain comms. All BS.

It's hilarious how little you know about this subject.
Don’t forget repopulating the earth! Enough with the hero worship, he’s good at PR at the expense of real people.
