@justpaulinelol @cleantechnica Mild sniffles & cough & slight fever past few days. Right now, no symptoms, although I did take NyQuil.

@ErcXspace @SpaceX It will have landing legs

What is the general population (no knowledge of symptoms) accuracy of a sars-cov2 PCR test & is it possible to generate a false positive if you simply run enough cycles?

@DeepMind Congrats!

@StaceyR28715306 @Maisie_Williams 😏

@robintosh_nunez @PPathole Interesting. My Thursday night saliva sample came back today with N1 gene (unique to cov2) showing at cycle 26 & N3 (generic sars) at 24. I get results of today’s test tomorrow. Almost no symptoms today, so hopefully better results.

When sending your resume, please describe a few of the hardest problems you solved & exactly how you solved them

@Erdayastronaut @RenataKonkoly @SpaceNews_Inc Am hoping to change booster design to land back on launch mount with no legs. Will require extreme precision.

@AustinTeslaClub @JoeTegtmeyer @peterdog15 @TXTerafactory @Terafactorytx @lqdchkn @jd_average @EliBurton_ Tesla Texas team is making great progress! Giga Texas factory will be an asskicker.

Penguin Random House 😴 should change the name to Random Penguin🔥

@ICannot_Enough @JohnnaCrider1 What’s honey?

@JohnnaCrider1 @teslaownerssv @28delayslater Sure

@Liv_Boeree Yea

@ID_AA_Carmack Yup

@PPathole Lowering Starlink terminal cost, which may sound rather pedestrian, is actually our most difficult technical challenge

@jason_rassett Lower latitude states need more satellites in position, so probably January

@flcnhvy And cases with high (non-infectious) Ct should quarantine for a few days, while getting another test. Second test determines whether they’re just beginning to get ill or are on the long tail afterwards, where viral fragments exist, but person is not infectious.

@nichegamer There is such a thing as too much sentience

@Erdayastronaut @PPathole @Teslarati @TeslaRoadTrip Yes

@RationalEtienne @heydave7 @philwhln We have quiet a queue of products to build! Better do new Roadster at some point😬.

The carousel turns ever faster

@parstalberg @josh_bickett @ICannot_Enough @Erdayastronaut @rweb11742 Yes, but from a visiting American. Ah, the irony is just too much!!

Nullius in Verba @royalsociety

@hisdirtremoves @SpaceX I can’t comment on turbopump internal details, but you’re roughly in the ballpark. Wow, rocket turbopumps, especially if oxygen-rich, are insanely hard! Arguably, the hardest mechanical/fluids/combustion problem known to exist.

@levie Wild times!

@NASASpaceflight Largest cast titanium part in the world. No heat shielding needed.

@ID_AA_Carmack fp16 with least important digits truncated (so it feels like fp32) is what we’re betting on for training with Dojo

@slashdot .@TheOnion

@aholstein404 @flcnhvy @thesheetztweetz This is a subject of much debate

@flcnhvy Our data center was named Skynet as a joke over 10 years ago. Might have been tempting fate!

@BLKMDL3 If it’s happening to me, it’s happening to others. I’m getting PCR tests from separate labs. Results will take about 24 hours.

@westcoastbill Indeed

@Nigel_Lockyer I could not be more excited about the new supercollider! That said, while it is considerably larger, I don’t think it necessarily requires all that much incremental engineering.

Very close to actual expected flight!

@Astronomiaum Let the Martians decide their own future

@Astronomiaum Life in glass domes at first. Eventually, terraformed to support life, like Earth.

@ICannot_Enough @Erdayastronaut @rweb11742 Pretty close. Definitely feel 💯 if I take DayQuil. Frankly, this was one of the mildest cold/flu experiences I’ve ever had.

@BBCTech For sure

@flcnhvy Yeah, with cooling channels integrated into the chamber walls

@westcoastbill @SpaceX 13 years & $11 billion … wow

@flcnhvy @thesheetztweetz Major upgrades are slated for SN15

.@TheBabylonBee is savage 🤣🤣

@NASAaero @LockheedMartin Now *this* is what you’d call pointy!

Would be great to hear from people who know a lot about the PCR testing industry. What’s the approximate false positive rate, all things considered, for cov2 PCR tests?

@kyzcralotSxaM Yes

@PPathole Strange

@josh_bickett @ICannot_Enough @Erdayastronaut @rweb11742 Yeah, PCR Ct was unequivocal at <20. Doesn’t matter what method you use at that low a cycle threshold.

@Peter_J_Beck Well done!

@ReflexFunds @nickidk4 @pcgamer Dojo/Doge

@enn_nafnlaus @flcnhvy Didn’t realize that was possible. No problem if there’s a way get current design Cybertruck approved in Europe!
