Thanks space bar
My post was partly joking. I watch movies, and the beginning banner says produced by Sony, an Amazon company. They own and make lots of stuff, not just deliveries. Same is true of Google and Microsoft. Now SpaceX is partnering with startups to market kitchen apps and appliances (that incorporate smart AI). They just bought Cursor, an AI coding company which uses AI to create software programs using English statements, which will put coders out of work. Not too far to speculate that they may make profits from many Earth-bound markets other than space related business.
Very young for so many accomplishments.
I like him for many reasons. Like you, his fearless attributes, willing to show he is human despite sometimes acting silly. Brings his little kid to events and is playful with him. Then there is the genius in everything he says and does. Like a modern-day Leonardo Da Vinci, speaking on a variety of scientific subjects not even dreamed of by others, and then attempting to make his dreams a reality.
Others knocked him for dreaming of building spaceships, electric vehicles, tunneling machines, electric utilities and batteries, internet satellites, brain implants to manipulate tech, robots, etc. Individually, each sounded nuts. But look at how they come together to accomplish his long-stated goal of going to Mars. He is a 4D chess master while others play tic-tac-toe.
