  • Thank you, now maybe we may be constructive perhaps. Yes, I am aware and believe me when I say I hate musk and am well aware of what he is and how f-ed spcx is

    I did not give him any money though, as I did not participate in the IPO. I did take money away from someone else when I sold the stock for more than I bought it for.

    Is that scummy? Sure, but not much more than any other stock trade. I didn’t force anyone to buy. If the fanboys want to hold the bag that’s not my problem

    None of that makes me close to a nazi or fascist. Unless you count Marx and Engels among fascists, after all they also traded stocks (and one of them was a capital c Capitalist)











  • They have momentum, but not mass (ignore the other explanation, like yes, E=sqrt(m0^2 c^4 + (pc)^2), but so what? m0=0 for photons)

    As you can see, momentum, p, is p=E/c, and we know that the energy for light is proportional to its frequency, f, E=hf (h is Plank’s constant). So, p=hf/c. When light is absorbed by a material momentum (and energy) conservation apply and it imparts p onto the object. If light is reflected it imparts 2*p, showing this is left as an exercize to the reader
