Recurring revenue - launch the satellite constellation once and generate monthly subscription revenue potentially running into billions of dollars a month.

Manufacturing limitations & launch pad availability, once they are resolved (along with launcher reuse) will lead to a point where there is not enough demand to fill the launch roster. This internal demand will help them fill it up.

Satellite internet service should provide major operational cash flow for SpaceX. That too on recurring basis.

Rocket launches generate revenue once per launch and for the foreseeable future, there will only a limited number launches per year.

Very good move by SpaceX.

Good point.

I guess it is a fair assumption that the neural network is trained using a corpus of logos that already look "well made" to the human eye.

It is possible there may not have been any/many samples that would be considered bad.

It would be interesting to see how this neural net evaluates a bad logo, using a tool such as LIME.

This is cool. But should the fourth section (sub-seconds) be running from 0-99? It is currently running from 0-59, too.

Sorry about the nitpick; this really is a cool implementation :-)

Not sure if your location is covered by Google's Mapmaker.

For my location, I usually provide updates/corrections via Mapmaker; it goes through a community review process and shows up in the main Maps within a couple of months (at most).

Just curious. Which company would be apt to provide "security solutions", then?

Some unintended consequences of playing the video backwards - when I go in reverse from slide 9 (Fan) to slide 8 (Thermal Core), the arrows indicating air flow and thermal flow are animated in reverse :-)

My respect for Gabe Newell just went up:

Says Ellsworth: "Gabe was completely behind it... I talked to Gabe, and he talked to the lawyers, and he's like, 'It's theirs, make it happen,' because he could see we were passionate about it."

That is cool. And thanks Mike, for your incredible d3.js library.
