> gas turbines would only be the rational choice about 5-15% of the time

Even at this rate, most rational homeowners would still push back. I absolutely do not want to be listening to gas turbines 10% of my life and I don't think people are NIMBY for holding that opinion.

The SP500 (the index the article is using for their example) literally requires profitability. Tesla wasn't includes for years and years because of it.

The only index that I know that float multiplied is Nasdaq which no one should even be investing in via their 401k anyway. Shitty index. Most consumers are utilizing some type of fund that tracks the CSRP, which float adjusts with no multiplier.

float adjustment results in any CRSP tracking fund/etf having a $10,000 investment being approximately $17 worth of SpaceX. This isn't a real problem the media is trying to push it as.

Maybe you're right. Maybe we should just continue to burn coal and let people die of black lung mining it and millions of people living in the pollution zone. Safe, clean energy is overrated.

The decade of zirp between like 2013 and 2021 created a lot of shitty realtors because anyone with a pulse could sell or buy a house with ease. The true value of realtors is in bad economic conditions where serious work is needed to market and negotiate.

Like it or not he founded (sometimes in-part) but drove these companies to success by demanding deliverables others thought were crazy.

Falcon launches cost dramatically _less_ than comparables like Ariane. In Fact, Ariane had to beg europe of subsidies to keep the program competitive.

Meanwhile, Starship is well on it's way.

You don't know what you're talking about.

Boom is not a serious endeavor.

They have not committed to an engine. There is no engine commercially available to buy and no engine producer has committed to creating one.

Yes, because the bottom 50%, mostly impoverished or near impoverished folks were spending money on Claude Code subscriptions instead /s

You can use the word fundamentally all you want, it doesn't make it true.

Explain _why_.

Centralizing permissions via IAM is a seriously overlooked benefit.

The vast majority of index funds are float adjusted. SpaceX will not have that many shares available relative to the total value of the company. It's a negligible percent of the overall market cap of say, VTI. This commonly repeated trope is misinformation. The change in rules is more of a problem than the actual value.

Yet another completely un-implementable, insane take from someone who has accomplished very little in the way of legislation. I mean seriously? We're going to start to seize companies now? What even is an "AI" company? Google trains their own model? Are we going to seize Google? Give me a break. This is real life slop and would never get published if it weren't for the author's name.
