“@stevenmarkryan @WholeMarsBlog Haha”
“@WholeMarsBlog Internal beta rollout tonight, wider tomorrow”
“@WholeMarsBlog It’s coming!”
“@SpaceX One of our most complex missions”
“@CodingMark @Andy8671025 @WholeMarsBlog Assuming 25% efficient PV cells at 0.8 surface coverage”
“@CodingMark @Andy8671025 @WholeMarsBlog Exactly. Ecosystem is almost entirely dependent on the sun already. Civilization’s energy needs are absurdly tiny compared to what the sun sends us for free (~1 GWh/day/km^2).”
“@Andy8671025 @WholeMarsBlog Solar panels, ground mount & rooftop, paired with stationary batteries, will be civilization’s primary source of energy, as sure as day follows night. Mark these words.”
“@WholeMarsBlog So much empty land & only a tiny percentage needed to power entire country!”
“@WholeMarsBlog It’s looking good so far”
“@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.”
“@WholeMarsBlog The primary solution to a sustainable energy future is solar/wind with batteries for when sun doesn’t shine or wind doesn’t blow, interconnected with conventional high voltage lines. No unknown technology is needed! Hydro+geothermal+fission will also be non-trivial contributors.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Fusion would be expensive energy, given difficulty of obtaining and transporting source fuel, plus maintaining the reactor. Far better to use the Sun – thermonuclear reactor with no need to refuel or service.”
“@WholeMarsBlog More solar + batteries needed. Batteries are great at dealing with peak demand.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Release of 10.69.2 probably end of week. Needs a bit more polish.”
“@WholeMarsBlog 10.69.2 has a relatively small number of code changes, but their practical effect will be significant”
“@SpaceX More Starlinks reach orbit”
“@WholeMarsBlog @jonbbc @aelluswamy 10.69.2 goes out to 100k owners next week”
“@jonbbc @WholeMarsBlog @aelluswamy 10.69.1 is even better. We reduced latency & jitter in hardware command loop, so time from object detection to brake actuation is 10% to 20% better.”
“@teslaownersSV @SpaceX Ancient times”
“@WholeMarsBlog First few days, just 1k owners, but going to 10k if no major issues. Note, 10.69.2, hopefully going out week after this, is the wide release beta.”
“@CSI_Starbase Agreed, we recently made this change & many others. An intense effort is underway to achieve robust engine containment in case of RUD to protect booster, other engines & launch ring.”
“@RenataKonkoly @Kristennetten @culturaltutor The swoop of the X is meant to represent the rocket’s arc to orbit”
“Squeezing extra performance out of Falcon 9 – almost at 17 metric tons to an actual useful orbit with booster & fairing reusable!”
“Starlink V2, launching next year, will transmit direct to mobile phones, eliminating dead zones worldwide”
“@SawyerMerritt @SpaceX Ron Barron is awesome”
“@WholeMarsBlog @RealDanODowd 🦇 💩 crazy”
“Mechazilla loads Starship on launchpad https://t.co/LfkfjpAcZj”
“2 main goals this year: - Starship to orbit - FSD wide release Many other things, of course, but those are the 2 giant kahunas. Will require insane work by many super talented people, but, if anyone can do it, they can. It is an honor to work with such awesome human beings.”
“@Teslarati @Tesla @WholeMarsBlog @JohnnaCrider1 🤔”
“@WholeMarsBlog As mentioned previously, this is a major release, so we need to be cautious. Goes out to ~1000 Beta participants later today.”
“@WholeMarsBlog 🤣💯👍”
“@SpaceX Each fairing half is a fully capable reentry vehicle with its own thrusters, thermal protection, avionics & sensor suite”
“@WholeMarsBlog @karpathy Got to build those YouTube subscriptions!”
“@WholeMarsBlog 🤣 ok we’ll turn it on”
“@teslaownersSV I hope there is a self-sustaining city on Mars in 20 years!”
“@DBurkland @WholeMarsBlog 8/20”
“@WholeMarsBlog @wintonARK Waitlist is too long. Will enable again as we ramp production.”
“This will be Mars one day https://t.co/nf4hML8dKx”
“Starship B7 static fire https://t.co/taBpsd9LSV”
“@WholeMarsBlog I think the approved language these days is “height-challenged sellers””
“@EvaFoxU @WIsitlike @WholeMarsBlog @Kristennetten @99brownKaryl @DriveTeslaca From Real Scam O’Dowd”
“@WholeMarsBlog Tesla Fremont team is kicking a**!”
“@SciGuySpace @BryceSpaceTech SpaceX Falcon team is 🔥🔥🔥”
“Moving rocket to launch pad https://t.co/nPVq1tyLoy”
“Hustling to get Starship Booster 7 back to pad to test outer ring of 20 engines”
“Just came across this pretty good CNBC piece on SpaceX & Starship https://t.co/RELYzC40M9 https://youtu.be/LgXtMtLdDxc”
“@teslaownersSV @BillyM2k @WholeMarsBlog Maybe Twitter can become that”
“@teslaownersSV @BillyM2k @WholeMarsBlog It sure is hard to find a news source that’s accurate, relevant & not totally depressing! Old-school version of The Economist & Jon Stewart Daily Show / Colbert Report were great.”
“@BillyM2k @WholeMarsBlog The media has strong negative bias & are driven by clicks (they can’t help it). Unfortunately, I generate lots of clicks. But these things move in cycles. When it starts boring readers to knock me down, they will build me up. This cycle has happened so many times …”
