    Elon Musk Can't Fix Your Commute | NYT Opinion


    A somewhat humorous yet informative opinion piece about Musk's pie-in-the-sky transportation projects. That one involving vacuum tubes does sound terrifying, considering what would likely happen to the "space dildo" and the people inside of it in the event of a tube collapse. You'd probably have better chances of surviving a plane crash.

    He has been here in South Florida selling the services of his "Boring Company", which drill tunnels under cities. There are several projects on the table here which might award him the contract.

    The Boring Company (TBC) is an American infrastructure and tunnel construction services company founded by Elon Musk. Its ongoing and proposed projects are designed for intra-city ("loop") transit systems.

    TBC completed two tunnels in Las Vegas for loop travel. It completed one tunnel for testing in Los Angeles County.
