“Putting together SpaceX rocket landing blooper reel. We messed up a lot before it finally worked, but there's some epic explosion footage …”

“@GigarothPack Not a bad idea. For sure, it makes sense to test AI for safety in some kind of open world / sandbox virtual world.”
“@DMC_Ryan In about six months or so. Linked to dual motor config.”
“We took the SpaceX/Tesla Hyperloop pusher pod for a spin by itself a few days ago to see what it… https://t.co/4hr1yN37he https://www.instagram.com/p/BYckipugds5/”
“@eKanishka @ChaseBlackmon1 @boringcompany Tunnels are sealed to 5 atmospheres of water & gas pressure. Just need walls around the apertures.”
“@ChaseBlackmon1 @boringcompany Not sure, but probably”
“@nickg_uk @Model3Owners Feature coming soon”
“@AdolfOosthuizen They're so real. Anyone going to that much trouble must really care. I'd gladly follow their commands, but they're so friggin obtuse …”
“@GraduateMonkey That's pretty much why we did it”
“Worth reading Life 3.0 by @Tegmark. AI will be the best or worst thing ever for humanity, so let’s get it right. https://t.co/lT0uMH3ujZ https://www.amazon.com/Life-3-0-Being-Artificial-Intelligence/dp/1101946598”
“@bryanclark Hyperloop (near) vacuum tube runs parallel to SpaceX on Jack Northrop Blvd. It is 0.8 miles long and just under 6 ft in diameter.”
“@ItchGrid Brakes”
“@newscientist https://t.co/mA8ZgutrbE https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=DNkKCFaqib8”
“Will run the SpaceX pusher sled later this week and see what it can do”
“@newscientist Moon base alpha (cheesy show, but I loved it) plus Mars”
“@bfslandinglegs @RichardFPenn @John_Gardi Not that this is remotely equiv to man on the moon, but there is a world of difference between talking about some random idea and doing it”
“@bfslandinglegs @RichardFPenn @John_Gardi Actually, no, his architecture was different. Also, thinking of going to the moon and actually going to the moon are not the same thing.”
“Hyperloop pod run by team WARR https://t.co/ntaMsoxkZE”
“@Excellion @boringcompany @OpenAI The AI could def find us there, but maybe it won't care”
“A Model S in The Boring Company tunnel being dug under Los Angeles (starting in Hawthorne) https://t.co/tQVD5KkIvb https://www.instagram.com/p/BYUeGjmAh8N/”
“@PiPrefer Yes, it is”
“@JRoque250 @Freewill404 @cbotnyse A tiny one”
“Btw, high accel only needed because tube is short. For passenger transport, this can be spread over 20+ miles, so no spilt drinks.”
“@Freewill404 @cbotnyse No such thing as true vacuum, so actually yes”
“@cbotnyse Call it ~800mph”
“Might be possible to go supersonic in our test Hyperloop tube, even though it's only 0.8 miles long. Very high accel/decel needed …”
“Congratulations to WARR team from Tech Univ Munich for winning 2nd @Hyperloop competition! Peak speed of 324 km/h, which is over 200 mph!!”
“Just arrived at the @Hyperloop competition final. Student teams have amazing talent!”
“@OfficeOfOMAR @HyperloopOne I hope they and any others trying to advance transport technology succeed”
“@SmileSimplify @Vita_Berlin @c12olivas Exactly. Wouldn't let anyone invest more than a token amount in early rounds of SpaceX and Tesla, as the probability of failure was >90%.”
“https://t.co/IypZm9FdQk https://amp.theguardian.com/environment/climate-consensus-97-per-cent/2017/aug/07/fossil-fuel-subsidies-are-a-staggering-5-tn-per-year”
“@SU3UR3ANLegend Sorry! Coming next year, along with completing the Trans-Canada Highway and interconnecting US, Mexico and Central America.”
“@bobbyblackstock @c12olivas Funny thing is, whenever I suggest all companies go to zero incentives, room gets very quiet. That's because others get a lot more than us.”
“@bobbyblackstock @c12olivas Literally zero incentive laws were put into place by my companies. Zero. Others put them in place. Happy to go to zero incentives for all.”
“@c12olivas I'm not an investor. Just believe in putting money into my own companies. Don't think the OPM approach is right.”
“@SmileSimplify @beboutside @Hyperloop @SpaceX @paradigm_hype @swissloop The latter. There are pretty long gaps between each team run, so livestream is not the way to go.”
“From last year, but still my favorite video of the Falcon 9 rocket booster returning from space… https://t.co/b935pdz2Xi https://www.instagram.com/p/BYTrSaHgS-Z/”
“@beboutside @Hyperloop @SpaceX @paradigm_hype @swissloop SpaceX and The Boring Company are running the Hyperloop competition”
“@Techmeme Tesla does not really have "TTunes". That's a joke.”
“@kateconger Will be hanging with my little chum, Gary, on Sunday”
“@RolfeWinkler @julieverhage Let me check on that for you. Found the answer right here: 🔥💩”
“@alexeheath @RolfeWinkler @julieverhage It was misinterpreted by Rolfe at WSJ as a fundraising effort. Neuralink is not seeking investors.”
“@berlinhedgehog @jmackin2 WSJ has been laboriously negative for over a decade. I'm surprised they haven't bored their readers to death by now.”
“Max recovered booster velocity was Mach 7.9 (BulgarianSat). Energy is velocity squared, so this is a bigger difference than it appears”
“Max velocity: Mach 6.9 Max altitude: 247 km Highest so far, but velocity matters much more”
“@rupertdance @VoltzCoreAudio Probably 2m or so”
“@VoltzCoreAudio Exactly. Yeah.”
“@sroalf Intentionally? Yes”
“@HarshilShah1910 It is approximately the size of a carrot”
“Touchdown: Vertical Velocity (m/s): -1.47 Lateral Velocity (m/s): -0.15 Tilt (deg): 0.40 Lateral position: 0.7m from target center”
