Comment on SpaceX Starship blows up twice in a row.
Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 2 days agoSure, but that is a valid concern nonetheless. One major reason for the early successes of SpaceX and Tesla was their ability to attract top talent. I don’t think anyone with any self respect wants to work there these days.

Could say the same about Facebook, and Google. Yet they don’t have any issues funding talent.
Money makes the world go round, at least most of the time. And enough of it can make just about everyone shove their principles into a box.

Meta and Google throw money at people as compensation for making them build unethical, immoral stuff.
SpaceX has traditionally paid far less, relying on “we’re building fucking reusable rockets”, which in normal circumstances, to a lot of engineers, is pretty rad, and kind of its own selling point.

Well, privacy invasion and eccentricity is one thing. Overt fascism and staging a coup are on a whole other level.
