  • Man, there’s a lot of projection here from you.

    I didn’t mention Musk once. Not even a little. That’s all you trying to simp to the jackass.

    There’s plenty of reasons not to try and colonize Mars right now. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t advance the technology ahead.

    But thinking that colonizing Mars is even remotely doable with the technology we have access to today, or in the future we can see, is being completely detached from reality.





  • Space travel and colonization of other planets are wildly different problems to solve. We’re nowhere near colonization levels of anything outside the most habitable areas of the earth.

    We can’t even create a self-sustaining habitat on Antarctica, and that’s many times easier than Mars, the moon, or whatever other planet in our reach we’re shooting for.



  • As others have replied, the MS thing is about them having a Plan B in case the board didn’t reinstate him.

    One way or another he’s working for Microsoft here at the end of the day, Microsoft is just making sure they keep him gainfully employed within their control. Their move to hire him was covering their bases.

    If the board were to reinstate him, like it has, then MS can rescind their offer and allow him to join the Open AI CEO position again.

    Either way, MS didn’t want to lose Sam is all this says.
