You can hedge the position via options without having a taxable event on passive investment.

Because post 4.0 dropped the sycophancy?

I'm not seeing that at all. I'm seeing more markdown text being produced by AI but nobody wants to read it because the signal to noise is low. AI doesn't yet have a context window wide enough to have the judgement capability to filter the gold from the fluff for a moderate sized org.

Yeah I don’t think yet. But keep generating and tooling will arrive that can better connect it. We have the nodes (markdown files) but not the edges of the graph.

Has anyone done the math on how much liquid methane and oxygen this would take to launch on Starship? Seems like an impossibility alone without digging into the numbers.

Over promising is fraud. The hyperbole doesn’t help your argument at all.

What part is hyperbole?

Too many to quote but https://elonmusk.today hosts an intensive list of his lies.

Making predictions that don't come true is no fraud. Calling it fraud it hyperbole.

And Jesus some people have more time on their hands than they know what to do with making a site like that.

How do you think readership gets monetised in the first place? The biggest way is ads, which includes referrals.

Do you dismiss paid ad placement the same way you dismiss referrals? If not, what makes it different?

> Referral credits are legal fictions

A promise for $100 of stuff isn't exactly the same as a promise for $100, but it's close. Debt is a "legal fiction" but that doesn't mean it's not legitimate, or that you can pretend it doesn't exist.

Referrals usually have a contract. I don't know what went wrong in this situation, but in general those systems are just as legally binding.

There was no guarantee of Roadster delivery date.

They do still have the old site live at https://reg.bom.gov.au/

A business engaging in unethical practices, not respecting its audience and standing by the quality of its content.

It is quite simple, they had the more recent cleansheet single aisle airframe design with enough ground clearance for modern high bypass engine designs. This has baked in a lot of inherent efficiencies including manufacturability meanwhile Boeing leadership refused to invest in a 737 replacement needed in the 2000s.

Good point, it transfers capital from the investor class to the working class.
