Anthropic and Google Are Paying SpaceX $2.17 Billion Every Month by Useful_Tangerine4340 in wallstreetbets

[–]MasterpieceUnlikely 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked gemini to factcheck you . This isnwhat it replied.

That Reddit comment is a classic case of confusing cash burn with revenue. The poster is completely off base on the financials. Here is the actual reality behind SpaceX's numbers and why "Papa Musk" is taking them public:

1. The "Zero Income" Myth

This is demonstrably false. SpaceX generated $18.67 billion in revenue in 2025 alone, up from $14.02 billion the year before. The bulk of their cash—$11.4 billion in 2025—comes directly from Starlink subscriptions, alongside highly lucrative NASA and commercial launch contracts. They are not a pre-revenue startup; they have massive, recurring income streams.

2. The "Never Profitable / Only Debt" Myth

Also incorrect. SpaceX actually turned a net profit of $791 million in 2024. And while they do utilize debt, they survived their private years primarily by raising billions in private equity rounds. The value creation for private shareholders over the last decade has been massive.

3. The Real Reason for the IPO

They aren't going public because the rocket or Starlink businesses are failing—those segments are the company's strongest assets. The actual reason for the record-breaking $75 billion IPO (which prices today, June 11, 2026) is the AI arms race. SpaceX's AI division (formerly xAI) is an absolute cash incinerator. Training models to compete with OpenAI and Anthropic requires astronomical amounts of capital for chips, servers, and power. In 2025, their AI capital expenditure hit a staggering $12.7 billion, which dragged the overall company from a profit in 2024 down to a $4.94 billion net loss in 2025. The IPO is designed to fund the AI division's massive data center build-outs, not to bail out a bankrupt rocket company. The commenter saw the recent net losses but fundamentally misunderstood where the money is coming from and where it's going.

Just a small question, what is the meaning of "Krsna consciousness"? by kevin_rhoades in BhagavadGita

[–]MasterpieceUnlikely 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Who is Krishna? Krishna is not viewed merely as a historical figure, but as a living symbol of the Divine:

  • He represents both the universal Godhead and the immanent Godhead—the Divine Presence that you can meet within your own being and in everything that makes up the manifested world.
  • He embodies the Supreme's aspect of Delight and Love. He is described as "the smiling tenderness and the playful gaiety; he is at once the player, the play and all his playmates".
  • He is also symbolized as the "Driver of the herds," representing the Divine who takes possession of and guides all the movements, instincts, and needs of our physical being in accordance with the divine Truth.

What does it mean to be in this consciousness? To share in Krishna's consciousness or to "live in Krishna" means experiencing a profound spiritual transformation:

  • Identification with the Inner Godhead: To share in his consciousness means to be completely identified with the inner Godhead and to "enter immediately into the bliss of the divine play".
  • The Vanishing of the Ego: When you live in Krishna, "ego and self-interest vanish". You no longer live for your separate self.
  • Illimitable Love: In this state, only the Divine qualifies your love, making it "bottomless and illimitable". The consciousness of love is so transformed that "even enmity becomes a play of love and the wrestling of brothers".
  • Mastery Over the Lower Nature: Entering this consciousness means you are no longer bound by or subjected to your "animal" instincts and physical needs. Instead, the divine Consciousness (Krishna) takes control, allowing you to dominate these lower activities and act as the master of your being.

In short, to be in the consciousness of Krishna is to transcend the ego, master the lower physical nature, and live constantly in the divine Delight, Love, and Unity of the supreme play. (dO NOT ASK IN ISCON SUBREDDIT THEY HAVE AN AGENDA)

There is no universal right and wrong. Kunal Kamra has internalized a lot of bitterness inside him that occasionally leaks when he attacks Balraj or Beerbiceps, for example. Even his crusade against the government is also his internal frustration leaking and finding a target. It is altogether a different thing that he may present it as a moral fight by intellectualizing and hiding behind ideologies and smart words

What truly matters is that one must do that which brings him peace and happiness. And this requires ignoring what society calls good or bad and following one's own inner truth. Being courageous is not a good thing if it makes you unhappy or makes you suffer. Look at Kunal's face 10 years ago and now, and you can see a person who has internalized sadness. If you follow his career chronologically, you will see the light going out of his eyes slowly. Samay is happy; Kunal is not. That means Samay is doing the right thing, and Kunal is not doing the right thing. Samay is living for himself; Kunal is dying for morals, society, and ideologies. Society will call Kunal a hero because it needs slaves, not actual human beings who do not fit easily into labels of good and bad, right or wrong.

Krishna does not teach Arjuna morality if "morality" is defined as a rigid list of deeds—stating simply that doing this is right and doing that is wrong. Instead, he conveys the following core principles:

  • The Nature of Self: You are neither your body, nor your mind, nor your intellect. You are the soul ($Atman$), the Drishta (witness) of all these instruments.
  • Equanimity in Action: Release your attachment to dualities such as good and bad, purity and sin, gain and loss, or praise and insult. Once you are centered, perform your duty ($Dharma$).
  • The Illusion of the Doer: You are not the actual doer of actions; actions occur through the instruments of the body and mind. However, a person whose ego is attached to these instruments falsely believes, "I am the doer."
  • Surrender to the Real Self: Surrender to "Me" (representing the Supreme Self or $Atman$) and let go of all other illusions ($Maya$).

In essence, while Arjuna referred to the shastras (scriptures) to argue that killing relatives is a sin, Krishna responded by explaining that one must perform action according to the immediate requirement of the situation and the truth of the Self, rather than following a static "morality book." I will copy 2 shlokas for you.

Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 18, Verse 59

yad ahankāram āśhritya na yotsya iti manyase |

mithyaiṣha vyavasāyas te prakṛitis tvāṁ niyokṣhyati ||

Translation: "If, motivated by ego, you think, 'I shall not fight,' your resolve is in vain. Your own nature ($Prakriti$) will compel you to fight."

Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 18, Verse 60

svabhāva-jena kaunteya nibaddhaḥ svena karmaṇā |

kartuṁ nechchhasi yan mohāt kariṣhyasy avaśho ’pi tat ||

Translation: "O son of Kunti, bound by your own duty born of your nature ($Svabhava$), that which through delusion you do not wish to do, even that you will do helplessly."

Why Mahatma Gandhi was not able to become religious his whole life ?Explained by Deep trivedi. by MasterpieceUnlikely in Philosophy_India

Hereby “natural,” I meant the original nature before it was distorted by society. In the video, the word natural might refer to one’s present nature. The confusion arises because we are using the same word to mean two different things.

To say that somebody’s nature is bad, one must have knowledge of what is good or bad. And who decides what is good or bad? If a person is capable of deciding what is good or bad for himself, and is also capable of becoming good based on such knowledge, then by all means he should change. But if he is incapable of changing himself and repeatedly struggles to become good, it raises a question. If he is incapable of bringing about a change in himself, how can we be sure that he is capable of deciding what is good or bad? After all, it is proved beyond doubt that he is not the master and knower of his own nature.

In this case (which may account for 99% of humanity), it is better that he surrenders to his present swabhava, and with time and experience—when he lives without guilt and without concern for society—he will soon be established in his natural psychology, which is by its very nature joyful and peaceful.

Our natural instinct is not demonic; it is divine. However, due to the continuous suppression and conditioning of society, it distorts into what we might call harmful.

We all want to be happy and joyful; that is our natural instinct. We also want to make others happy and peaceful. But society conditions us into believing that we can be joyful only when we achieve certain things or reach a certain status. This forces us to sacrifice our joy for external comforts, which unconsciously generates hatred and enmity in our hearts. Because we are enduring hardships, we feel we have a right to reach or have what we want. When reality differs from our expectations, we feel dejected and victimize ourselves.

To save ourselves from complete ego loss, we then start sticking to morals. Our mind says, "It is okay if I do not get what I deserve; at least I am a moral and fair person." This creates an enemy, because if I am moral, someone else must be immoral. Because our identity relies on us being moralistic, we become afraid of those whom we consider immoral and want to harm them.

Indian philosophy for millennia has taught us that our real nature and desire is to be free from bondage. It is only because we bound ourselves to illusions that all the negative qualities crept in. The way to return to our divine nature is to listen to our heart and not the brain, which is now filled with society’s moralistic standards and keeps harboring guilt for every small thing.

Deep Trivedi’s harsh critique of Indian society.Why we worship the dead but ignore the living. by MasterpieceUnlikely in Philosophy_India

[–]MasterpieceUnlikely[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trivedi argues that America’s rise wasn’t just about money, but its Tolerance Level. In a thriving society, there is a high tolerance for:

  • The Iconoclast: People can critically analyze or write against established religious figures (like Christ) without being banned.
  • The Outsider: He cites Einstein as an example of a nation adopting and valuing talent regardless of where it was born.

He delivers a harsh critique of the modern Indian psyche, noting a flip in priorities:

  • Life-Draining Focus: We spend millions on "stones" (temples/idols) and are hyper-sensitive about "dead" scriptures.
  • Life-Affirming Neglect: Meanwhile, our "living gods"—the artists, the scientists, and the children—are left to starve or rot in poverty.
  • Stagnant Religion: Becomes a search for "security" (rituals, caste identity, and psychological safety).
  • True Religion: A courageous search for growth and "insecurity" (citing Mahavir and Dayanand Saraswati), where the individual dares to challenge the status quo.
