Don’t mess with 𝕏
Last week, @X sued several people who abused Creator Revenue Sharing by operating a coordinated network of accounts, posting inauthentic content to manipulate engagement, and using multiple bank accounts to hide their scheme. We do not tolerate fraudulent behavior on X -- and will act forcefully to protect our platform and the earnings of genuine creators. You can read our lawsuit here: transparency.x.com/assets/le…

Boring Company is working on a simple, precursor Hyperloop tunnel between Austin and San Antonio (>200 mph). Due to traffic congestion, that journey can currently take up to 2.5 hours. @BoringCompany can reduce that to a consistent <30 mins.

The Creators Product team at 𝕏 is growing. I’m hiring someone to help bring more great creators to 𝕏 and help existing creators on the platform grow. This is a founding role on our small but mighty team, so I’m looking for someone who is highly independent, resourceful, and comfortable operating with a high degree of ownership. You’ll help shape the strategy, build and execute campaigns and programs, and develop strong relationships with both rising and established creators. Looking for someone scrappy, strategic, highly execution-oriented, deeply online, and obsessed with creators + internet culture. You should be equally comfortable defining the growth strategy and actually executing it. A big focus will be growing women and lifestyle creators on 𝕏. Strong preference for LA or SF. DM me or comment if this sounds like you — or if you know someone great.

Now, you can understand why the democrats have been attacking me in Pennsylvania. We uncovered 371,595 non-citizens & persons who are “unable to read, write, and understand the English language” in Philadelphia. After cross-referencing the PA voter rolls, 50,000 voters have been flagged as potential alien matches. 50,000

Taylor Lorenz said Elon will ruin Twitter back in 2023 after he bought it. Now she has flipped 100% and has admitted that X is better now than ever.
"i think X is better now than ever" - @TaylorLorenz "twitter was falling apart so i'm glad @elonmusk took over but i was like elon has never ran a social media product" "he banned me by the way. first major mistake" "i was very skeptical and i thought this would be the end of X but my controversial take now is that X is better than ever. especially for technology and for the cultural conversation" "we got jensen tweeting, we got zuck back on. they have all come crawling back"

A Tesla saves its owner from prison!
Tesla helped save a man from jail. Kevin Finley was arrested at gunpoint for allegedly fleeing police. His Tesla captured the key moments, showing why he never saw the unmarked police car. Nearly two years later, the judge watched the video and found him not guilty.

Every glib, arrogant, virtue-signalling celebrity who’s broadcast the lie that kids will kill themselves if not allowed to transition deserves to have this read aloud to them non-stop through a megaphone for a year.
A landmark Finnish study has found a sharp rise in psychiatric illness among adolescents following sex-alteration procedures. The peer-reviewed study, published in Acta Paediatrica, tracked every young person under 23 who contacted Finland's gender clinics between 1996 and 2019. A total 2,083 individuals were studied, with 16,643 matched controls. They were followed for up to 25 years. Finland's health registers are mandatory, which means no one opts out — this is the complete national picture. The numbers: psychiatric morbidity rose from 9.8% to 60.7% in adolescents who underwent feminising reassignment, and from 21.6% to 54.5% in masculinising reassignment. Even after adjusting for prior psychiatric history, gender-referred adolescents faced five times the risk of male population controls, and three times the risk of female controls. "Psychiatric needs do not subside after medical gender reassignment," the authors concluded. Referrals after 2010 arrived sicker. 47.9% had already needed psychiatric treatment before their first clinic visit, against 15.3% among controls. The authors' read: for some adolescents, gender distress may be secondary to other mental health challenges. The evidence keeps mounting. The silencing continues anyway. How many more adolescents will be told this is "care"?

Amazing. Everybody is sleeping on how important this is. For all of us! For a relatively very small additional cost, we could add in a few dozen stations and get rid of a lot of traffic in Austin, too. This is key for growing business but also the cultural / music scene, etc.

TBC would be excited and honored to build this massive infrastructure project. Because Loop/Hyperloop is express (i.e. no intermediate stops), one could travel from an Austin parking lot to a favorite San Antonio restaurant in ~30 min. As long as they both have Loop stations!

.@elonmusk WENT ALL IN "He went all in on SpaceX and Tesla. I think in many corners he does not get the respect that he should about being a wealthy person that could just retire — and he went all in where he was really going to. He could have gone bust. … These are big world-level things. And I have a great deal of admiration that he was willing to throw himself so completely into that." Carmack could have hedged. Elon didn't. Space. Cars. Energy. All-in — with real risk of going bust. That's the respect.

SpaceXAI just made a massive jump in image generation Grok Imagine Image 2.0 is now #4 on Artificial Analysis’ Text-to-Image Leaderboard with 1,154 Elo.....the highest-ranked model outside OpenAI Imagine Image 2.0: #4 — 1,154 Elo It also sits on the Pareto frontier for quality vs price Going from #18 to #4 in a single generation is insane SpaceXAI is moving ridiculously fast

Orbital Data Center cost takes by Street analysts making the rounds: Wood Mac ~$170B/GW, BofA $160B to 180B, Futurum ~$72B (infrastructure alone), BNP >$100B just for launch to loft 1 GW. This is all the same spreadsheet genre that “proved” Starlink couldn’t work in comparison to classical Data Centers at $40B-$60 on the ground. However, we now know that Starlink worked because: (a) SpaceX’s real Falcon 9 cost was nowhere near list price, and (b) V2/V3 satellites blew past the bandwidth per satellite that those early models assumed. Starlink satellites kept outrunning the forecast and internal launch costs ran way below analysts estimates. AI satellites will rhyme. Gen-1 is what the cost models price. Gen-2 and Gen-3 (better chips, power, and thermal per kg) are where we once again pull away from the spreadsheet. Starship does the launch cost side slide in short order. @Mach33 is the most comprehensive analysis on Data Centers in the sky. Here are their estimates: Starship AI launches, with booster reuse and ship expendable cost at ~$300/kg. That would give us: ~$46B per GW for SpaceX, then toward ~$24B/GW over the next decade with Ship reuse. Bull case with full reuse and better chips goes lower. In summary: actual cost likely to start at $46B per GW (and the falling to half that) vs $160B+ headlines from "analysts". Add to that less permitting delays and less political pushback than a GW on the ground. Starlink redux. Bears beware.
