“@PPathole @SpaceX Moving to 33 engines on next booster”
“@DimaZeniuk @klwtts @TeslaClubNorway @WholeMarsBlog @SawyerMerritt @1stMarsColonist @daelmor @Kristennetten @28delayslater @Inelonwetrust__ @billhuang688 @EvaFoxU @GailAlfarATX As goes Norway, so goes the world. That said, still a long way to go to replace the fleet of combustion vehicles on the road.”
“@marshallk @Esqueer_ Calling for violence will result in suspension”
“@Erdayastronaut @SpaceX Merlin is so simple compared to Raptor!”
“RT @EricLDaugh: 🚨 BREAKING: Elon Musk's Starlink just made the service FREE to Jamaica and the Bahamas as Category 5 Hurricane Melissa make…”
“@jonastsla @jamesdouma @heydave7 @karpathy @WholeMarsBlog Our video clips are usually shorter than 30 seconds, but the overall point made by James is accurate. Tesla is probably labeling more images per week than any other project ever done and our rate of labeling is increasing rapidly.”
“RT @SpaceX: Super Heavy on the launch pad at Starbase ahead of Starship's eighth flight test https://t.co/MdiIQMy5EF”
“@thesheetztweetz SpaceX has sued to be *allowed* to compete, BO is suing to stop competition”
“RT @SpaceX: Splashdown confirmed! Congratulations to the entire SpaceX team on an exciting eleventh flight test of Starship! https://t.co/l… https://x.com/yz”
“@WholeMarsBlog You mean 11.4.7? That should be going to wide release within a week. Version 12, which an almost total rewrite (~99% AI) is being tested by our QA drivers. Too much new code to go to the public yet, but it is mind-blowing imo.”
“@SirineAti @mn_google Starship will be ready to fly next month. I was in the high bay & mega bay late last night reviewing progress.”
“@BLKMDL3 @Apple @SpaceX We’ve had some promising conversations with Apple about Starlink connectivity. iPhone team is obv super smart. For sure, closing link from space to phone will work best if phone software & hardware adapt to space-based signals vs Starlink purely emulating cell tower.”
“@Erdayastronaut @SpaceX It was foolish of us not to start 3 engines & immediately shut down 1, as 2 are needed to land”
“@WholeMarsBlog Car just drove me around Austin all day with no interventions required, despite ACL festival crowds! In the fairly near future, people will wonder why there was ever skepticism about self-driving.”
“@WholeMarsBlog No more stalks. Car guesses drive direction based on what obstacles it sees, context & nav map. You can override on touchscreen.”
“@StuartZuckerma1 @WholeMarsBlog It’s a new version of software, but will merge to main branch soon. We have a more advanced model in alpha stage that has ~4X the params, but still requires a lot of polishing. That’s probably ready for deploy in a few months.”
“@_rykllan @SpaceX @NASASpaceflight @FelixSchlang @MarcusHouse @bluemoondance74 The rocket fleet grows”
“@Teslarati The source info is incorrect. Starship & Raptor development is being done out of our HQ in Hawthorne, CA. We are building the Starship prototypes locally at our launch site in Texas, as their size makes them very difficult to transport.”
“First Falcon 9 land landing mission from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California coming up soon!”
“@TylerG1998 @NASASpaceflight @SpaceX It is! Looks like we can get 378 sec Isp with this version of Raptor Vacuum, so over 380 sec with some improvements down the road.”
“@Erdayastronaut @SpaceX @NASA @Astro_Doug @AstroBehnken Astronauts to orbit next week!”
“@WholeMarsBlog He’s such an idiot that he can’t even tell he’s an idiot. BYD sales dropped by 42% from last quarter. This was a tough quarter for everyone.”
“@krassenstein @SpaceX Starship should be able to make it to the moon in less than 5 years”
“@imPenny2x And deliver over 200 tons of payload to a useful orbit with full & rapid reusability. 50 rockets flying every 3 days on average enables over a megaton of payload to orbit per year – enough to build a self-sustaining city on Mars.”
“@rookisaacman If civilization is reasonably stable for the next ~30 years, a self-sustaining city of a million+ people will be built on Mars”
“@vkhosla Do some research before you display your utter ignorance. SpaceX gets no subsidies and received half as much as Boeing for astronaut transport, but did 100% of the work. As for Tesla, take a minute to read our public filings and you will see that EV incentives represent a…”
“@DefiantLs SpaceX Falcon just completed its 450th flight successfully”
“@dbongino @rustyrockets I’m a little preoccupied rn”
“@WholeMarsBlog Headline is misleading. Starlink can obviously offer far more robust positioning than GPS, as it will have ~1000X more satellites over time. Not all will have line of sight to users, but still >10X GPS & far stronger signal. Just not today’s problem.”
“@jadescipioni @jimkwik His ideas sound sensible, but he was not my or SpaceX’s “brain coach”. I think he maybe gave a talk once.”
“@heydave7 @WholeMarsBlog A careful observer would note that my (low basis) share sale rate significantly exceeds my 10b (high basis) option exercise rate, thus closer to tax maximization than minimization.”
“RT @MarshaBlackburn: It’s corrupt: @DOGE found that 6,300 aliens admitted with criminal or terror ties went on to receive a SSN and benefit…”
“@StonksReddit @rschmied @spideycyp_155 @SawyerMerritt @SpaceX Starlink is the primary communications system of the Ukrainian army on the war front. If anyone else wants this job, please be my guest …”
“@LordofEa @kerrikgray @chicago_glenn @Tesla @teslaownersSV @dvorahfr @TonyadeVitti @SpaceX @SirineAti Absolutely!”
“@WholeMarsBlog Very much a beta calculation. It will evolve over time to more accurately predict crash probability.”
“RT @cb_doge: One of the most beautiful booster landing footages ever. https://t.co/Cw0wbSUxbT”
“@WholeMarsBlog Good question”
“@ErcXspace @SpaceX Ship leeward side will be bare metal, windward will have black, hexagonal heat shield tiles”
“@lrocket @TonyeFreeman Thanks for teaching me so much about rocket engines!”
“@WholeMarsBlog We are focusing on just Model Y with HW4 for the initial release. Make sure that works well, then broaden. This has the 5X increase in parameters. HW3 would run the same parameter count, but requires extra work to optimize the code.”
“@InSpaceXItrust @Space_Station @Tesla @SpaceX @Commercial_Crew That was the whole company back then. Grew organically from a simple mariachi party in El Segundo.”
“Great progress by Starship Cape team. Started several months behind, but catching up fast. This will be a super fun race to orbit, moon & Mars!”
“@WholeMarsBlog This is written by Ford/UAW lobbyists, as they make their electric car in Mexico. Not obvious how this serves American taxpayers. https://t.co/FUUXARHlby https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-06-03/ford-production-of-electric-mustang-exceeds-gas-powered-pony-car”
“@EricRWeinstein @Tesla @boringcompany @X @xai @SpaceX Consciousness must expand from Earth or face certain extinction in a short amount of time by cosmic standards”
“@PPathole @Tesla @SpaceX @neuralink @boringcompany I’m trying my hardest! Perhaps more people might consider loving humanity. Our collective light of consciousness is a tiny candle in a vast darkness. Please do not let it go out.”
“@PPathole @SpaceX We need serious tonnage to Mars”
“RT @SpaceX: After stage separation, Super Heavy flipped in a controlled direction for the first time. This maneuver requires less propellan…”
“@SawyerMerritt @SpaceX To be precise, 25,300 terminals were sent to Ukraine, but, at present, only 10,630 are paying for service”
“@aparanjape @Erdayastronaut @SpaceX I do think that great design & engineering of products are critical, but manufacturing & supply chain require orders of magnitude more work”
