“@SpaceX Perhaps inevitable”
“Mini Starship with flame! https://t.co/VGKHyaikTd https://shop.spacex.com/collections/featured-products/products/starship-torch”
“Cryogenic propellant load of Starship is underway, liftoff in T minus 1 hour”
“Starship launch attempt in ~7 hours”
“@johnkrausphotos An implausible rocket on the beach”
“@GailAlfarATX @SpaceX Yes”
“@waitbutwhy @SpaceX We will try”
“@mckaywrigley I saw it happening from well before GPT-1, which is why I tried to warn the public for years. The only one on one meeting I ever had with Obama as President I used not to promote Tesla or SpaceX, but to encourage AI regulation.”
“Yay! Nice work Dragon Team!”
“I will do a Starship Spaces at 6pm CT tomorrow for subscribers only”
“@ID_AA_Carmack I still have launch PTSD from early Falcon days. My limbic system twists my guts into a knot as we get closer to launch.”
“@SmokeAwayyy With booster ultimately flying up to ~20 times per day & ship flying up to ~5 times per day. Useful load to Mars is ~150 metric tons, but requires ~5 orbital refilling tanker flights. Target: >1 megaton of cargo & people delivered to Mars, so that it becomes self-sustaining.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Exactly!”
“@FonsDK @WholeMarsBlog @jasondebolt @SawyerMerritt @teslaownersSV @forwardcap @farzyness @garyblack00 Reaching volume production & achieving positive cash flow is insanely hard”
“@WholeMarsBlog Exactly”
“@EvaFoxU @WholeMarsBlog Sunlight is the best disinfectant, so let’s shed some light on the media puppet-masters!”
“@loracyaknosiner @WholeMarsBlog 💯 It’s Anchor Man en masse, but who wrote the memo?”
“@Erch03 @WholeMarsBlog That would be sickkk 🤣”
“@IanSharar @WholeMarsBlog If what you say is true, who is writing the bs they’re buying?”
“@PopCatalin @Tillsbury1 @WholeMarsBlog Definitely not 🤣”
“@WholeMarsBlog Like talking marionettes … but who is pulling the strings?”
“@BillyM2k This will make some people upset, but I need to emphasize that accelerating synthetic mRNA technology was another silver lining. It is a revolution in medicine, like going from analog to digital. The Covid mRNA vaccine dosage level was too high and having a zillion booster shots…”
“Starship launch trending towards near the end of third week of April”
“Candle in rocket engine lasts ~0.1 sec Analogies are not physics https://t.co/mhAPFnVv9p”
“@Space_Strategy @ScottAdamsSays Starship”
“Starship is ready for launch 🚀 Awaiting regulatory approval”
“@WholeMarsBlog We need to predict what pedestrians will do based on their behavior, including limb angle & direction of sight. FSD currently sees all pedestrians as cuboids, so is overly cautious. Also, diffusion seems to be more compute-efficient than transformers for vision.”
“@itshakeemz @DimaZeniuk @SpaceX @SirineAti @captainarve @andst7 @WholeMarsBlog @EvasTeslaSPlaid @GailAlfarATX @JaneidyEve @TeslaAIBot @1stMarsColonist I hesitate to say this, but it might be too pointy”
“@DimaZeniuk @SpaceX @SirineAti @captainarve @andst7 @WholeMarsBlog @EvasTeslaSPlaid @GailAlfarATX @JaneidyEve @TeslaAIBot @1stMarsColonist And we need to add 3 more Raptor Vacuum engines, because it’s inevitable”
“@DimaZeniuk @SpaceX @SirineAti @captainarve @andst7 @WholeMarsBlog @EvasTeslaSPlaid @GailAlfarATX @JaneidyEve @TeslaAIBot @1stMarsColonist Will get bigger. Ship will probably stretch by another 10m or so.”
“@WholeMarsBlog True”
“Sorry, slight glitch with @SpaceX Starlink. Coming back online now.”
“@CSI_Starbase @LabPadre High-strength stainless steel armor is needed to protect the launch stand from the world’s biggest blowtorch! Even steel will be eroded fast by the Starship booster plume. We will need to make a water-cooled steel jacket to achieve full reusability.”
“@WholeMarsBlog I am dumb way more often than I’d like to be!”
“@WholeMarsBlog So many well off critics don’t understand that demand at scale is limited by affordability. There is plenty of demand for our products, but if the price is more money than people have, that demand is irrelevant.”
“@EstesRockets 🔥🔥”
“Starship is stacked & ready to launch next week, pending regulatory approval”
“@SciGuySpace They need to make reusable rockets”
“Starship preparing for launch 🚀 https://t.co/M1pR8rsmYt”
“@WholeMarsBlog If we had been allowed to introduce new evidence, the verdict would’ve been zero imo. Jury did the best they could with the information they had. I respect the decision.”
“@SpaceForceCSO @SemperCitiusSDA Thank you for entrusting @SpaceX with this mission”
“@sterlingcrispin I will die in America (or Mars if lucky)”
“@WholeMarsBlog @RealDanODowd He has issues”
“@george__mack I thought both SpaceX and Tesla each had less then a 10% chance of success”
“@ThePrashanthCB @dogeofficialceo I hear you, but we’re not getting to Mars if civilization falls apart before then!”
“@WholeMarsBlog Great video!”
“@WholeMarsBlog Still a few legacy NNs using single cam, single frame that need to move to surround video”
“@WholeMarsBlog Competition has nothing to do with it. There are serious AI risk issues.”
“@WholeMarsBlog They are great”
