10 Years of Oculus

@heikki_bear @passthebeano I started Oculus VR when I was 19 years old, working a minimum wage job and living in a camper trailer. The tech to make synthetic long-chain hydrocarbons is very well understood and proven. Dunking on founders for being young and not traditionally-educated is lame.

Retconning a franchise that revolved around stopping the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in order to appease the Communist Party of China is bad. Doing so by stripping out any reference to our allies in Japan and Taiwan is so much worse.

There’s a new Top Gun movie coming out. And Maverick is wearing the same leather jacket - only this time it’s Communist Party of China-approved, so the Japanese and Taiwanese flag patches are gone (screenshot on right is from the new trailer)...

For the people who think this is in poor taste, sorry, no sympathy. The lies these people told are part of why I had my entire company and identity ripped away from me. They went for my scalp, kicked me while I was down, celebrated my fall and derided my return. Screw 'em.

Peter Bright ( @DrPizza ) is one of several ArsTechnica/Condé Nast journalists who have spread outrageous lies about me for years. Technology Editor since 2014. He was arrested in an FBI child sex predator sting two weeks ago. No bail, "risk of danger".

@elonmusk The main thing holding us back is constraints imposed by the pre-existing commercial engine used in this particular aircraft. Keeps costs low and maintainability high, the right choice for this bird. Supersonic is on the roadmap for one of our unannounced vehicles, though!

Sure, we could put early space explorers and moon colonists through years of training that adapts them to living in small spaces away from greater society. Or we could just send basement-dwellers.

Anduril is launching two new products on Friday evening. One of them is a radical new category of weapon that is totally unlike anything that has come before it, the other has dozens of applications outside defense. Please, everyone, send me your energy!

They said it couldn't happen, that it was impossible. They pretended their word meant something, as if Chinese law doesn't require them to lie about backdoors. Not following through with a TikTok ban was a huge mistake on the part of USG.

Plagarism detection is/has been hard. Decades-old examples coming to light just as the perpetrators come under scrutiny reflects that. AI trained on the right data could instantly expose every example of blatant plagarism in academia. Fire them all.

Laughing my ass off at this Hacker News comment from an Anduril competitor who says our footage of Ghost flying in rain and heavy water spray is "impressively disguised Hollywood grade CG". No wonder they didn't win the contract. Anduril has a no-renders policy, BTW.
