You gotta burn money to make money. This much cash burn is required to build the next gen level of infrastructure. Its a big bet for the company, let's see how it pays out. Haters going to say its all in vain, but no one knows how the future will look. Stock at ATH btw.

RL has been burning money for a few years and similar rates, and this just happens to be the highest one at the moment. Q4 seems to always stand out as the largest loss each year. (According to the "Quarterly losses for Meta's Reality Labs" chart in the article).
