    I like Adam Something’s takes on it, which is essentially that the Hyperloop is dangerous and metros/subways are better.

      Hyperloop and Loop are not the same thing. Loop is Teslas in small cheap tunnels. Hyperloop is high speed trains in vacuum tubes.

        A vacuum under atmosphere is effectively a bomb. The loop is basically a fire tunnel waiting to happen. They are both stupid and dangerous.

          I don’t know if I would call it a bomb. Like it could implode, but how much would that affect stuff outside the tube. Its a bad idea regardless, just doesn’t really seem like a bomb.
