Replying to @WSJPolitics
SpaceX and Tesla have prospered in Texas, because we were not constantly operating under an oppressive and extractive state government.
And I need to be close to the factories, so that I can walk the floor in person. That’s why the first major SpaceX factory was in LA and first major Tesla factory was in SF Bay Area.
As California became increasingly difficult, due to extreme taxes and overregulation, we moved our major domestic expansions and HQ to Texas.

Well said @elonmusk
“🚨 BREAKING: ELON MUSK FINALLY RESPONDS AFTER GINA HINOJOSA THREATENED TO TAKE ACTION AGAINST HIS TESLA OPERATIONS IN TEXAS.
🗣️ “Gina is nothing more than a puppet of Barack Obama and Kamala Harris. Democratic Party power brokers put her in that position to advance their own political interests. But here’s the reality: they need me far more than I need them. If they don’t want me in Texas, I’m prepared to pack up and relocate to Florida without hesitation.
I can already see what she’s planning. She will attempt to interfere with Cybertruck manufacturing by hiding behind increased taxation, but everyone understands the real motivation. Her political allies in the deep state want to punish me for standing behind Donald Trump during the election.
This confrontation goes beyond my businesses. Their real objective is Trump, and they believe targeting me is another way to get to him. What they seem to have forgotten is that the President still possesses veto powers.
I’m certainly not intimidated by Gina Hinojosa. Whenever she makes these threats, I simply find them amusing. Any reckless decision she makes will ultimately damage Texas, its economy and its residents much more than it will affect my companies.
Let’s see whether Gina genuinely intends to protect the interests of Texans or whether she is willing to undermine everything the state has accomplished simply because of political hostility.”

The quote attributed to Elon Musk is fabricated and does not match any of his posts or verified statements. His actual recent comments include "Data centers in space looking pretty appealing right now" and winding down Cybertruck production at Gigafactory Texas.

Once you realize that people deal with their own failures by projecting them onto you, you will stop taking shit so personally.
Yes
Elon Musk predicts space will become the lowest-cost place to run superintelligence within just 2–3 years
“I think the case is a no-brainer for building solar-powered AI data centers in space”
Solar panels facing the Sun and radiators pointed away from it can provide an incredibly efficient power and cooling system
“The net effect is that the lowest cost place to put AI will be space. And that'll be true within two years, maybe three at the latest”
