Brilliant analysis

SWE’s don’t want to work in factories, generally, because pay is shit and hours are worse than selling your soul to bay area tech.

Even so, I’m planning to go back.

Why can’t I downvote!?

Bro stop trolling

NASA is not part of the DOD, they report directly to the White House.

The boomerism you exude is not a good look.

Lmfao! I’d go as simple as NIMBY boomerism.

Can you read? NASA does not have a contract with SpaceX to deploy starlink satellites.

And it’s better that they burn up than get stuck in orbit. We have enough space debris out there as it is.

When exactly is “before”? We’ve had a space program since the 50’s. You know, when we landed on the moon.

Perhaps a corporate income tax or a billionaire wealth tax should be used to pay for food for starving people. Since, you know, corporate profits and billionaires actually do nothing to help the populus.

And while we’re at it, why not universal healthcare?

When starlink satellites fall down?

NASA doesn’t pay for starlink. NASA pays for SpaceX to launch NASA’s satellites, NASA astronauts, and DoD satellites. And this is a pretty good deal given that these rocket launches are the most bang for buck efficient rockets in the entire history of launching rockets.

Life was better before our government prioritized corporate profits over increasing the base quality of human life. SpaceX contributes to the latter by providing continued access to space and the research that goes along with it while also eliminating our dependence on Russia.

What are you arguing for as the alternative? Do nothing?-:

So are you saying you’d rather pay Boeing and Lockheed for a shittier way to access space that they don’t even have working?

Nobody is denying that NASA pays SpaceX for services.

2B to SpaceX, the most advanced rocket company on the planet fully run by Americans since they deal with DoD. Access to space is not a bad thing.

Agree people are starving. We’re a country at peace spending >700B on the military industrial complex. Try shaving that down.

You have no idea whether they’re profitable or what the sources of income are…since they’re private…

The entire company is not funded by NASA

I bet calculator usage also goes up during the school year

If it was a Ponzi scheme from the get go he would have cashed out his billions by now.

Go read a bit of Satoshi’s white paper on Bitcoin. It was created in response to the banking industry as a way for individuals to securely own digital currency without a centralized institution.
