I hate the attitude that professor exhibits. "Well we might've wasted years of work, billions of dollars, millions of man-hours, burned up large stockpiles of limited resources, arrested development of national infrastructure doing something we knew was impossible and in this process we've created absolutely nothing worthwhile, but at least I learned a lot! Gotta look on the bright side!"
You're right, but I feel like even without the hyperloop, the government (or other rich fucks) would find some way to avoid building a train line. Trying and failing to build a hyperloop was just a convenient excuse.
Oh yeah for sure, but that's because they're rich dickheads. This guy is just an idiot engineer with his head up his ass going for "knawledge"
He's not into this because of geopolitics, he's just a useful idiot

If China did the same thing with state resources this dude would have a half chub for the rest of his life
I doubt it, he'd probably find some reason why it was bad
I meant the wasting billions of dollars for nothing part
He probably feels that way about China's poverty alleviation and rural revitalization programs.
He was a physics phd with a focus in gravitational waves, never a professor. His phd thesis has 0 citations.
