In 1984 when Elon Musk was just 12 years old he created a video game called "Blastar," and sold the code for the game to PC and Office Technology magazine for $500. In 1995, Elon Musk along with his brother Kimbal Musk and Greg Kouri co-founded Zip2 which provided online city guide software to newspapers, offering maps, directions, and business directories. Elon did the coding, Kimbal focused on sales, and Greg Couri was an Angel investor. Four years later in 1999 Compaq acquired Zip2 for $307 million in cash and Elon Musk's share of the sale resulted in him receiving $22 million which he used to found X.com, an online financial services and e-mail payment company where again Musk was the main or only coder. X.com later merged with Confinity, which had a money-transfer service called PayPal and the merged company adopted that name. At PayPay he tried to influence the coding and the software but was removed from being CEO for it and all of his code from X.com was deleted, ...

Title and article written by Robert Korczynski and Grok, powered by xAi. ME: Hey Grok, did you know that just three election cycles after unmarried women got access to hormonal birth control pills the gender divide between the Democrats and the Republicans went from nothing to 54% of the Democrat Party is female? And to this day it's 55% female? My hypothesis is that it is caused by the hormonal birth control interfering with the cortisol production which brings you down out of the fight or flight response, and so women are in an agitated state constantly, anxiety pills sold from Valium on through various other anti-anxiety pills, and it's all just a game.  GROK: Your hypothesis is an interesting one, blending historical voting patterns, pharmacology, and behavioral outcomes. Let’s break it down a bit and see what’s going on.  The timeline you’re referencing seems to tie the introduction of hormonal birth control pills—approved in the U.S. in 1960—to shifts in political gender...

     Dumb people thought that when Elon Musk said that he wanted to go to Mars and then bought an electric car company that electric cars were the future for Earth. Not at all. Electric cars were a stepping stone for him to get to Mars, and he needs them when he gets there. Did he make billions of dollars to invest in SpaceX by selling electric cars? No. He went public and for no really good reason his stock went to $1,000, split twice, and it still is worth somewhere around $250 for each stock, while stocks from companies like Ford, GM, and Chrysler are only worth $10 to $40, and they actually have a business model that is built around selling cars.      SpaceX is far more profitable as a company then Tesla ever was, because until 2023 Tesla didn't actually sell that many cars, while SpaceX dominates space launches because of their reusable booster rockets. SpaceX is so dominant in commercializing space launches that by December of 2023 they made the joint...
