This is why I'm on X.
To discover awareness' that negate misperceptions.
Thank you Valerie Anne Smith.

That's the problem, it makes sense as a concept but people don't look any further
It creates impression they're helping people, when truth is very different
Public have short memories for all the cuts, restrictions, people harmed & media feeds misperceptions esp re disability

Mehdi, remember that this fellow:
- does not understand math or economics,
- cannot take care of his own body or home
- panders to his audience so they pay his bills.
This is a real life Bubble Boy who cannot talk to others that push back on his misperceptions

I see it more as Europeans discovering how much better the US is than their previous misperceptions of the US.

Fixed pie fallacy is at the heart of many economic misperceptions.
The preservation of individual freedom and aspiration for prosperity is incompatible with a full satisfaction of our views of distributive justice.
The ANC has CONVINCED BLACK People That @elonmusk is evil & Racist. Imagine IF ELon Musk was allowed 2 set UP plants & INJECT economic activity in South Africa. One thing about South Africans & THEIR DNA. They Love SA & Elon is NO different though ANC is using BEE 2 extort Him.

Sounds like a you problem, that doesnโt even make sense. Your misperceptions & confusion has nothing to do with what he is or is not doing ๐

amongst other misperceptions I think the entire aerospace industry has been colored in profound structural ways by high cost to launch and geostationary satellite design.
every engineering process was designed around creating multi-layered protections against component failure because there was such a high fixed cost to lofting those components.
If you're spending a $20k per kg to put the thing up, and in the event of failure your next chance to loft the asset will be year's away, then it makes sense to massively over-engineer the asset.
In low earth orbit, as well, you need thousands of duplicated assets with rated lives measured in years not in decades.
with starship and starlink, most of the cost is not fixed cost of launch, its in the payload bay.
Cost to launch should get below $100 per kg and you may be able to relaunch next week (if something goes wrong.) Cost to manufacture starlink v3, we think will start at ~$1,000 per kg. Associated groundstation capex for the incremental bandwidth is also much more meaningful relative to the cost of launch.
Net you are fine trading off reliability vs cost since you have to design for failure anyway (given thousands of assets) and sacrificing 1% reliability for 5% cost savings is a huge win.
This runs counter to everything that the industry has internalized over 50 years, so it has allowed SpaceX to continue to run orthogonally for nearly a decade.
With starship and v3 starlink we should begin to see the fruits of that labor really come to pass.

Thanks for a comprehensive journey through a dark web of motives & misperceptions & muddled thinking behind Russian & Western propaganda; how & why it succeeds or fails. I agree. The future revolves around Kyiv, not Moscow. ะัะบัั.
