If the space economy expands + if spacex continue to hold market share + if it can do so while increasing profitably against increasing competition in the future. And considering the argument is for "the most valuable company", if spacex can do all of the above while other non-space related companies that are hugely profitable slow down their paces of innovation, spacex could be the most valuable company ever.

At least for art - I don't think you'll find anyone who actually enjoys art hanging up anything produced by AI on their walls. For these kinds of "customers", they could equally easily frame & hang up a poster of the Mona Lisa. Artists are not at threat, if anything, AI makes original artworks more precious & enjoyable.

Depreciation should be quite substantial - I recall reading that the starlink sats have a 5 year life expectancy?

Deploying troops to Greenland right now would be solely aimed at seizing Greenland by force and would be a major international incident against the US's most important military allies. Deploying troops to Minnesota would be a domestic show of force that would have minimal impact, as they are incapable of seizing Minnesota for the US as it is already a US territory, so they would be used to guard public buildings (and would basically just sit around doing nothing all day).

I think the above comment was a joke (Claude frequently says that whenever you challenge it, whether you are right or wrong)

Maybe something like a publicly traded company, Citizens can vote directly on individual bills, or choose a proxy to vote on their behalf (and change that choice at any point that desire).

No. You state that this is all that it would take to be considered as tremendous business value. You are moving your goal posts on your point. My point is that you are taking an absolute position that there is tremendous business value in its current form(as a miniscule improvement and one insignificant new use case does does not equate to tremendous business value in itself) and so that remains to be seen.

Hoping someone here may know the answer to this, but do any of the benchmarks that exist currently account for false answers in any meaningful way, other than it would in a typical test (ie, if I give any answer at all it is better than saying "I don't know" as the answer I give at least has a chance of being correct(which in the real world is bad))? I want an LLM that tells me when it doesn't know something. If it gives me an accurate response 90% of the time and an inaccurate one 10% of the time, it is less useful than one that gives me an accurate answer 10% of the time and tells me "I don't know" the other 90%.

Just adding to op, for some (myself included) it is quite painful to see loose in place of lose, this should be fixed asap as it distracts the reader from the content. Lose = opposite of win, loose = opposite of tight.

Good work, I like the look and feel of it all.

It would be good for the dismiss of the "goal within reach" message to be permanent so each time I make a slight adjustment it doesn't keep popping up.

It would also be good to have a deductions option somehow, like the contributions but inverse - say I have a large starting amount but I want to make regular small deductions but still have the goal of increasing the pool through investment gains over time (eg starting capital of 1m, goal of 2m over 20 years while deducting 2k per month - is this viable)

Not sure how you'd execute this, but I think a great method of control for rhythm would be like a karaoke bouncing ball that you control with a keystroke. eg:

  -I write out my lyrics
  -you break my lyrics down to [x] syllables
  -I choose this rhythm control option
  -I hit the spacebar [x] times, in my desired rhythm based on those syllables (maybe a karaoke style visual to guide this), & you calculate timings between each keystroke and then attempt to create rhythm based on that
