[@chingompiew1]

With most other interviewers I feel that I've heard it all and I'm just listening to Elon say things he's said a 1000 times. Not with Lex. His questions really allowed Elon to go deeper and share his thoughts in ways that we would never hear from 99% of other interviews. Thank-you Lex. What a beautiful way to spend the first few hours after midnight on new years day (for me).

[@CharveL88]

Honestly, I was a bit disappointed that the practical questions didn't go deeper. I could've done without the "What is love" and esoteric stuff, which is mostly a waste of time. Save those for Peterson. It's hard enough to find interviews asking deeper engineering, science and production questions with Elon. All we get from the mainstream interviews is the vapid questions meant for people who've only heard of Elon and that he makes cars that magically drive themselves. I'm not ragging on Lex, just that I would've liked to hear more than cursory questions about the actually relevant stuff like Neuralink, Dojo, etc, and less grading memes. I don't care what Elon's favorite colour and lucky number is, or what his definition of "love" is. No, I don't even care what type of society Elon thinks people on mars will form. I'd rather hear what he thinks will be the major engineering challenges utilizing regolith to build infrastructure, or actual practical things like that. Leave the shallow question stuff to the vapid mainstream interviewers. The deep dive into Tesla's self driving software, is what should've happened with the other subjects, but it was still overall a great interview.

Nope he’s an extremely rich man with killer marketing. I can’t wait until everyone sees him for who he truly is. Notice not a single one of the advances he has predicted his companies would make have come true. He’s been making these predictions since 2017 at least. And he keeps doing it and none of his followers bat an eye. I can say with certainty you’re getting played. At the very least, please just look into this.

Believe it or not, the standard for laws written in the early days of our nation is that laws had to be in plain English. Still required today but everyone ignores it. The concept of constraining the Federal Government was the House (elected by the people directly) and the Senate (elected by the states), between the people and the states could regulate the Federal Government. Plus the fact that the states funded the Federal Government, if the states did not like the direction of the Federal Government, they could withhold funding. The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 created a fiat central bank, IRS and bypassed the states and taxed the citizens directly, the constitutionality of all three is murky at best.

Loved this interview. I was struck by Elon's advice for life, "Try and be useful." He went on to say that being useful was incredibly difficult. I believe being useful can be simply a state of mind. My daughter manages an AM/PM selling junk food and gasoline. But she is so important for so many people just going through their day. To some many people, filling their tank on the way to work and grabbing a quick cup of coffee and some donuts is such a vital part of their day. My daughter keeps a very clean well stocked store and she is polite and cheerful to everyone she meets. She actually attracts repeat customers. How do I know? Customers have told her so. She is, in short, useful. We all have purpose if we look for it

If the Internet didn't exist the only thing I could have done was probably to be a farmer and sell harvests on local markets, speaking italian dialect with no clue about how the world works. Now I do speak and understand English. I am a computer Scientist and software engineer. I studied physics and I am aware that the life we live today is not magic. The way we control information and excite electromagnetic fields and build on top of that protocols and abstractions and digital circuits and compilers and operating systems and browsers and media and content it just a marvellous engineering effort by the most awesome species ever existed in the universe as far as I know.

Lex, one of the best things about your interviews with Elon is your ability to ask him the kinda questions that he normally doesn’t get asked in interviews.

A short summary: - Finishing high stress situations sucessfully you feel more relief than elation - Most difficult problem regarding starship is engine production, right from the materials to design you have to have the best of everything to make the best engine - Mindset of Elon: When something is important enough, you have to get it done. there’s no factor of motivation or anything in order to work on something - Thinking in terms of first principles can be applied to any walk of life, just have an axiomatic base that you believe in and then you reason up from there to cross check your conclusion with the axiomatic truth. - Another mental model of thinking is to take a thing and scale it to a very large or a very small number and see how do things change ( you can use it to scale a product large and see if its still expensive by which you can arrive at an conclusion to work on the design of the product or not) - it's important to think of these things like probabilities, not certainties, there's a probability that something bad will happen on earth. Hence, its best that we work towards making life a multi planetary species - Probably in mars, direct democracy over representational democracy works best! - Helpful to think money in terms of information theory, with fiat currency the error in the database keeps increasing as government tries to print more money, cryptocurrency is an attempt to reduce this error created by the government. - Bitcoin is useful as a store of wealth but not as a day to day currency. Dogecoin could be used as a day to day currency as a fixed number of hash string gets generated every year and inflation reduces over time. - It is possible that satoshi nakamoto is Nick Szabo - Replacing processed images by raw photon inputs from camera and switching more traditional code over the neural network (as it does seem have to hit its global maximum on vector space creation) - Lot of bare-metal coding C/C++ is required for tesla self driving traditonally more on the control part after input has processed - Human robots are a thing, might replace manual un-interesting work. - History is a good way to learn and understand about the nature of civilization and indiviuals - Advice to young people: Try to be useful, ask youself are you contributing more than you consume? To have a net positive contribution to the society would be the right thing to aim for. - Reading a condensed version of the Britannica encyclopedia can be useful. Just read,read as much as you can. - Having a growth of the pie mindset, over thinking in terms of zero-sum game is useful. Usually many people think in terms of zero sum game, but that is rarely the case as the pie gets bigger as more people get involved - Whats the meaning of life? The answer is the universe, now its just a matter of asking the right questions. Elons foundation of philosophy is that he is curious about the nature of the universe. But we will not live forever, hence expanding the scope and scale of consciousness is fundamentally a good thing.
