Everyone laughed when Elon said he'd dig tunnels to fix LA traffic.. Now his underground Vegas loop is making $75M a year. But how this business grew is actually wild. Here's what's actually happening beneath the strip: Elon's Vegas Loop is changing transportation under the bright lights of Las Vegas. It’s a 1.7-mile tunnel system moving 28,000 passengers daily in Teslas—with just a 2-minute average wait time. But here’s the twist: it’s not about fancy tech. No self-driving cars or high-tech features. It's just human-driven Teslas in simplified, one-way tunnels. Why is it working? It’s affordable and efficient. The Loop cost $47M to build, compared to $500M+ per mile for traditional subways. Smaller tunnels, faster builds, and less cost. With plans to expand to 87 miles and 68 stations, it’s connecting the Vegas Strip like never before. The takeaway? Simple solutions that meet real needs can outperform "perfect" ones.

Been thinking a lot about how startups die. 
It's rarely the idea.
It’s usually the speed. Or lack of it. Or could be something you may talk about. Came across this old military concept- the OODA Loop - and it’s amazing. Observe -Orient -Decide -Ac
