I don’t know whether to be outraged or quiet. I’m what you’d call a bubble team

> I’m what you’d call a bubble team Care to define this for the 99.99999% of consciousnesses outside your head who have no idea what that means

Other people got it because they upvoted. But to shed a little light, a bubble team is a term from the NCAAB for a team that may or may not make the final 64 team bracket. Thus my comment, which again other people understood, is that idk if I'm in the 42M or not.

Hey look, arrogance aside you learned something today or not. I at least learned that you have no clue what march madness is. So downvote away it doesnt change your gaffe. Its pretty sad actually that you go through my comments and start flagging things after you got shut down. That’s some pathetic shit if ive ever seen it

Why is the title extrapolating from 4 interviews to 42M people? First off, I can't spot the 42M figure anywhere - I only see 36M - and the article doesn't seem to be extrapolating like that. It's just saying there's potential gains to be made from researching and targeting the super-rich, in a multitude of ways.

Edit: the title has now been changed

Elon is building starships, to shoot them off into space. Maybe that's a solution.

That said, changing the minds and behavior of 42 million people doesn't actually seem that complicated. Marketing depts are constantly targeting this segment. We know what their weaknesses are. Just requires a bit of world wide coordination and planning.

India can build anything for cheaper
