KAERO: jsem rada, ze vsichni krom emericanu vidi a vedi, jak by emericani meli zit. Infrastruktura tu je, existuje a driv se dala i pouzivat. Ted uz ne.
BART v Silikonovem udoli je nepouzitelny. Nespolehlivy, takze se ti velmi casto stane, ze vlak proste neprijede a zustanes viset 80km od domova. Uber ktery zavolas te bude stat $150 za dovoz domu (kolikrat mesicne si to muzes dovolit?). Ty vzdalenosti, co tu jsou, nikdo nevidi, dokud je nezazije.
Ne vsichni chteji zit v SF a pokud nejsi primo ve meste, tak tvoje vlastni auto je porad to nejspolehlivejsi co je.
Google, Apple, Tesla, FB - vsechny velke firmy maji pro sve zamestnace autobusy a svazi je do prace uz roky. Coz je vlastne privatni system verejne dopravy, coz jaksi pan Marx nezminuje.
A California High-Speed Rail? totalni propadak, za co budou platit dane dalsi generace. Je lepsi do LA letet za $50 letadlem, nez se snazit vlakem. Snad uz to stalo pres 100 bilionu, dokoncenych je nejakych 250km mezi "Horni a Dolni" (Merced to Bakersfield, kde to nikoho nezajima). A kdyz vylezes z vlaku, tak stejne musis mit auto abys nekam dojel.
Sorry za OT.

Musk pokazal na nesmyslnost California High-Speed Rail a to se nesmi, jeste by se lidi mohli domahat zruseni nesmyslu a ti, co to tlaci by prisli o prachy.

KAERO:
2013: Musk proceeded to explain that while the California high-speed rail project, which is projected to cost over $60 billion once completed, promised to send passengers from L.A. to San Francisco in two hours and 38 minutes, he figured out that he could build a Hyperloop that would make the same trip in just 35 minutes and would cost only about $6 billion.

tzn. kdyz uz se lidi smirili s tim, ze kvalitni reseni neco stoji a byli ochotni diskutovat o realizaci, tak jim do toho hodil vidle, kdyz v ramci PR stuntu/hype projektu rekl, ze je to cely predrazeny a misto toho muzou pouzit levnejsi reseni, ktery ale neexistovalo ani jako prototyp natoz funkcni produkcni kus, ktery by se mohl zacit realizovat misto vlaku + nikdo neplanoval to reseni ani vyvinout. max. vytahnout prachy z venture kapitalistu

soucasti pointy autora potom imho je, ze doslo k efektni sabotazi reseni hromadne dopravy (castecny poslapani myslenky vlaku pred verejnosti => mensi ochota jit do takovyho projektu), coz se vyrobcum aut (zvlast v US) obecne hodi

“Elon Musk admitted to his biographer that the reason the Hyperloop was announced—even tho he had no intention of pursuing it—was to try to disrupt the California high-speed rail project to get in the way of that actually succeeding.” — @ParisMarx @Gizmodo https://t.co/qj5WyO4oGR

CRAZY_IVAN: a to je prohlaseni z ktereho roku? :D

Elon: Tesla 500 mile range Semi Truck starts shipping this year, Cybertruck next year

TOXICMAN: potvrzen pokus o static fire, 10min

a zase se bude něco testovat :)

taky skvělá fotka

B7 completes two successful spin prime tests this evening!

Ship 24 spin prime complete.

Booster testing živě, detaily neznáme, může to být spin prime jako minule, teoreticky i static fire
