failedartifact··on Musk says Tesla will be profitable in Q3 and Q4
This sounds more like jealously than anything else. Musk clearly is playing a very good game in the commercial world, all the while trying to push humanity into a better place. He has to hype for investors. Broadly admirable is a complete understatement when you only need to consider the feats of SpaceX.

What I see is a person who is working considerably hard. Hes an inspiring figure that will give rise to future generations. Like Steve Jobs, Stephen Hawking, Albert Einstein, and countless more. You should think of him as a driver of energy and ideas.

Is the disclaimer clearly just saying commercial use is prohibited?
failedartifact··on Aaron, 5 years later
I first read this not knowing it was Aaron Swartz. When I read the comments and found out it was instantly heart dropping. I found Aaron to have fought very tough battles for humanity. I tried to get commission on doing an art installation on a side of an old university building. There was 5 wall sections where I want to place 5 inspirational famous people in B&W portrait format.

The 5 people were: Elon Musk Neil deGrasse Tyson / Brian Cox (couldn't decide!) Angelina Jolie Malala Yousafzai Aaron Schwartz

I made a proposal to my university (Dundee, Scotland), and really thought I had a chance since the building was derelict and that it was covered in shite graffiti. I was turned down because it was going to be torn down. People said I should have just done it, but I couldn't face the possibility of getting kicked out of uni because I graffitied the building.
