Let me be more specific, what concept is the tunnel supposed to prove or prototype? If it's that he can build a tunnel that a car can drive through, then OK, it's certainly not nothing. I don't see what's wrong with a blog post pointing out how Boring has deviated from its original promise, barring any details from Boring about how they've improved upon the process when building out this tunnel. I mean, I'm not the biggest Musk fanboy, but I don't think I would've ever bet against him if the bet was, "Can Elon Musk dig a tunnel?"
- tlrobinson 8y agoWhy does it have to prove anything? Sometimes prototypes are just about experimentation and inspiring people. They had to dig the tunnel anyway, why not show it off in a fun way?
- danso 8y agoWhy does Musk have to hold a big media event (i.e. free advertising) for a pre-alpha tunnel? No one forced him to, so to complain when the attention is of the disappointed and negative variety strikes me as a bit strange.
