That's what perplexes me: what is the innovation behind Boring Company? Nothing? It seems like their main claim to fame is navigating bureaucracy very quickly, but what they are trying to accomplish could have been done years ago.
- berberous 8y agoTheir FAQ speaks to this: https://www.boringcompany.com/faq/ https://www.boringcompany.com/faq/ Although I'm not sure if they've actually accomplished anything new yet other than push forward the concept of smaller diameter tunnels.
- hobofan 8y agoAs of now: Nothing. However digging that tunnel was probably a good idea, as it gives them some operational experience, and also allows them to start work on their underground transportation concept already.
