    They do…

    The only advantage SpaceX has is that if NASA blew up a launchpad, there would be an investigation.

    Everyone is used to Musk fucking shit up, and his defenders pretend it’s really a success.

    Your problem is with the politicians who control NASA funding, not NASA.

      There was a very long investigation, pretty sure it hasn’t even concluded since they don’t have their license yet for their next test flight.

      And why wouldn’t it count as a succes? You don’t see learning from design flaws as a succes? They clearly learned and iterated on the design

        If you read all the comments by givesomefucks you will see that they ignore context and make wild assumptions repeatedly. They are on the hate musk train and not addressing the topic.

        You: SpaceX?
        givesomefuck: musk is terrible, musk blow up things, musk stole my girl/boyfriend
        You: Okay, but what I was asking was…
        givesomefucks: musk is the worst human ever, EVER!!!

        Dude or lady is triggered. I get it musk is a douche of the highest order but givessomefucks has let it cause them to miss context and make wild assumptions. Sad really. I wish we could talk about things without whatever bullshit their on. My original question was only answered to the extent of musk is bad.

          I just worry there could be GPT-4 instances here that’ve been instructed to make these conversations turn nasty

      They literally don’t innovate in the same way. Like you said, if NASA blew up anything there’d be an investigation, making it impossible for them to iterate rapidly, meaning they are unable to innovate in the way private companies can.
