I stole RRR from Elon Musk and SpaceX (the routing rule behind the app)

by•

Musk posted "Rapidly Reusable Rockets, R R R" with a pirate flag on June 30, 2021. I took the three letters and pointed them at a house. Every recovered material in ML Systems is routed by that order: Reuse › Resale › Recycle — to its most valuable recoverable state, decided per piece at the moment it comes off.

The part that transfers is arithmetic, not virtue: recovering a booster and scrapping it for aluminum would still have been recovery, and it wouldn't have moved cost per ton at all. Crushed concrete counts as diverted and is the end of the line for that material. A recovery rate isn't a reusability rate.

Labels: no ML Systems deconstruction has been performed yet; the 80–90% recovery target is MODELED. The foundation is the rung the ladder doesn't reach yet.
