Elon Musk's Catastropic Earth-Moving Failure - 2022-07-02 - TOGoS's Journal

Elon Musk wanted to talk to me. Wanted me to do some job. So I came to his office, which was up inside some big industrial building. Outside there were all these earth-moving vehicles going around, working on this big pile of gravel. As I was walking out, something went wrong, and a lot of water started coming through and washing the ground away, right from under my feet. I managed to jump back a few times but the problem was becoming exponentially worse by the second. To one side a huge waterfall had just started pouring out. As I ran out of solid ground to stand on I jumped toward the waterfall, knowing that I'd probably drown in whatever watery mess was forming at the bottom. That woke me up.
