Sad to say @profgalloway is an investor in Boom. I don't mind disagreements but calling for an execution of a non-criminal (worse, an actual hero!) is a step too far. Working to arrange a buy-out of his shares.
.@profgalloway of @ProfGMarkets, @PivotPod, @voxdotcom and @NYMag is doubling down: he wants Elon executed. There is no justification for calling for murder in civil society. You support this @Bankoff?

Scott Galloway calls Elon Musk a “traitor to the West” and invokes the Rosenbergs, who were EXECUTED after WWII. GALLOWAY: “We took the Rosenbergs and put them up against a wall and executed them for being traitors.” “And I realize this is an incendiary statement, but I’ll make it and I believe it. I think Elon Musk is a traitor to the West.” “If this had happened in any other age where we were not obsessed with innovators and money, a much different reaction would be playing out to Elon Musk.” These people are absolutely unhinged. CONTEXT: Scott Galloway is not some random but a bestselling author with a top podcast who regularly appears on cable news. His net worth is over $100 million, and he’s openly suggesting Musk deserves death. This is what the Democratic Party has become, and people voted for it.

More than a dozen flight tests and years of development, with countless hours worked by SpaceX engineers and technicians, all come down to this: the first orbital Starship launch carrying advanced Starlink satellites bound for space.

MUST WATCH: @Jason Calacanis says Elon Musk is in an “UNIMAGINABLE AMOUNT OF DANGER” 🤯 “These people are DERANGED, SOCIOPATHIC LUNATICS.” “Elon and I are very close friends, so I can tell you the amount of security this poor man and his family have to have, and the amount of DANGER he’s in—it is unimaginable.”

BREAKING: Indian government sources say Starlink is welcome in India. 🇮🇳 “Customer is the king,” one official told ANI today. India welcomes competition in satellite internet, and customers will choose their provider based on price, value and quality. Yesterday brought good news for Starlink Direct to Cell too. TRAI proposed letting Indian mobile operators use their existing spectrum to connect phones directly to satellites. If adopted, the proposal could give Starlink a path to bring Direct to Cell to India through a local telecom partner, helping people stay connected where cell towers don’t reach.

If you’re actively trying to stop AI development, you’re my enemy and an enemy of humanity. I consider what you’re doing a direct attack on humanity’s future. Every disease that could have been cured, every life that could have been saved, every person who could have escaped poverty. Every opportunity lost is a direct consequence of your actions, and those lives are on your shoulders. You’re willing to sacrifice all of that because you’re terrified of progress. I have absolutely zero tolerance for this. Your movement deserves to be politically defeated, intellectually dismantled, and remembered as one of the greatest obstacles to human progress in history.

Grok Bot Win!! My nieces are struggling with numbers. Today I built an Android app to help them. A few improvements coming but it’s almost done. I built this using Grok Bot, directing it to use Grok Build, all in a few hours. This will be free on Android Play store soon. No ads. No data. I looked for web apps and android apps to help them and didn’t find anything close to what I wanted. Something bigger along these lines coming soon.

Fake news. Gets harder to tell every year…
The post is real, but the claim is not. Kyrstin later replied “Ha. Just trolling” when it resurfaced. No evidence she worked at Anthropic—her public record is Tesla and Shell only. Actual Anthropic exits that week were widely covered; this one was satire.

🚨 Today I filed a formal complaint against the man holding back FSD in Norway 🇳🇴 Here's why. Back in August, I emailed Stein-Helge Mundal, Chief Engineer for vehicle approval at Statens vegvesen. I told him the tech is ready, the safety stats are overwhelming, and asked: when will Norway get FSD? He pointed to EU rules. I replied that people will die needlessly because of bureaucracy - if this were a medicine, it would be approved the same day. His written answer: "Maybe we have also saved lives by delaying...." And in that same email, his only "source": a link to a German anti-Musk documentary aired on NRK. Not safety data. A biased documentary. I tried other routes, but a complaint has to go through his employer first. So that's where it went. My full complaint letter is in the replies 👇

Answer: "He's one of the country's foremost experts." RIP FSD in Norway. 🪦 Original answer + English translation 👇
