@jenhill totally gets it. #BoringCo has also failed to deliver on #Musk's promises of doing it much faster and cheaper than conventional technology. In reality, Boring Co. is slow and expensive. And he isn't selling the removed materials as bricks or whatever he promised he'd do.

When Musk laughed about how #Hyperloop was "like a tube and an air hockey table — I swear it's not the hard! 😜 haha", even he probably knew that it was nonsense. He never made a credible effort towards it.
