Harvard University Professor of Economics everyone. When discussing new modes of transport the _hyperloop_ is the exemplar. A technology that does not work, can not work, and will never work.

This whole article is just weird and rambling, like someone trying to use buzzwords without understanding what they are.

Much like walking or living in a mixed use neighborhood, bikes don't make any money for Elon and friends, so they are useless and in fact bad.
