Middle finger IQ gene tinker is hysterical. Reread even funnier, especially old Musk as a Howard Hughes. Fuzzies of historical record in age of digital bullshit.

A sentence I found confusing. “I could not imagine it, though I somehow I had found myself committed to this action”

I need to do a whole sweep for language. I just don’t have time to do deep focus these days.

Glad you laughed at the IQ joke. I expect there will be some group of people that does something like that one day.

A) I get that it'd be a bad story if you only had exposition, but the exposition was my favorite part

B) as someone who's a pretty big Musk skeptic IRL, I thoroughly enjoyed the scifi thought experiment of "what does the future look like if his things work as advertised".

Sci-fi is tricky because you want it different enough to be interesting but still relatable. Then there’s the learning curve on the new universe. Glad to hear it was a fun hill to climb as that was my intent.

Musk has his own stuff where I wish he was different but then I also know if he was there are high odds he wouldn’t be able to do what he has. I just look at Starship mechanically and I see no reason it can’t carry us to Mars.

In the universe I’m describing the moon is the universal refueling station for all Earth traffic. And Neuralink I think becomes easier to design and build once we have AI to help.
