Next week, Google is set to launch an experimental satellite to test the feasibility of data centers in space and it's doing it on a SpaceX rocket.

I thought the whole point of Praxis was that it'd be a cryptostate with its own laws.
But if it's existing within Uruguay's legal system, how is it any different from like a WeWork apartment complex?

interesting from the WSJ, which reports that White House officials were concerned about David Sacks' entanglements with AI companies and looked into how he might "personally profit" from his government work

Among my many feats when I was a 2022 Arthur F. Burns fellow in Berlin was truth-squadding Elon's Berghain claim as completely false, based on someone who went to Berghain with him
I’ve already been to Berghain twice, but declined the third time when they had rainbow peace messaging in giant letters on their wall, which was lame

Over the years, Musk has been pretty fixated on retelling his side of the story after not getting into Berlin's Berghain in April 2022. The period was interesting as it was the same weekend he was negotiating to join Twitter's board.
He says he declined to go in, but based on our reporting, he was rejected. From our book, Character Limit.

There obviously isn't that much at stake in this, but it is interesting how much he disputes this story and brings it up.
Musk getting rejected by Berghain has become a bit of a meme in Germany. @VonWegenLisbeth even wrote a song about it.

kinda surreal watching clips of Silk Road creator Ross Ulbircht speak in front of a large banner that reads "Become Ungovernable" at Trump's event boosting Republican midterm candidates for... government.
Ross Ulbricht, (@RealRossU) the founder of Silk Road, speaks on his experience of being imprisoned and receiving President Trump's pardon: "He felt compassion for me because he too was the target of a weaponized government."
