L5 autonomy is a absolutely a long way off (if ever practially acheivable) and Elon is a bullshit artist, but I don't understand your comparison to the halting problem. Could you elaborate? I interperate your comparison to the halting

What is this startegy of monetising upstream contributions that you mention redhat having done? This isn't something I've heard of before.

Yes, I had this confirmed by support. This is the most frustrating (and ridiculous) aspect. People will no longer be able to share things with your main email address. You can sign up for a google account with any email address, so if you&
