This link should work. It's only missing the first few minutes. Elon began by rolling a video of familiar Starship scenes.
I'll put this here since Starship and SH would be a critical element of what the military is planning for. Starship is not named specifically but "commercial assets" that provide low cost access to space and beyond is right there.

Starship & SH seems to progress fast pace, but not fast enough for Elon:

What an asshole. Elon Musk demanded that SpaceX workers in Los Angeles come to work on Thanksgiving weekend to speed up Raptor engine production. Did it at the last minute too, with a rude, manipulative mass e-mail.
(Sadly, rumor has it that the other private rocket company is run by an even bigger asshole.)

I'm sure those workers knew what they had signed up for. Except for a few, most probably won't will spend their entire career at SpaceX. Imagine, to have that experience listed on their resumes..... priceless.
It depends a lot on the hiring team of course, but if they understand the work environment at SpaceX (so, most of the space industry), the experience actually ends up being more of a yellow flag than a gold star for the prospective employee.
On the upside, the barrier to entry for SpaceX is pretty high--so if a resume comes your way with a spaceX bullet point on it, you know that person is very likely to be above average. The issue is that, more than most companies, one leaves SpaceX because they a) washed out or b) burnt out. So, especially if the person is coming right from SpaceX the hiring team needs to spend quite a bit of time ferreting out how damaged the goods are, because the above average person can also be pretty good at covering up fallout from SpaceX...
This is actually a followup to @Hurricane4911's post in the Boca thread, but its more pertinent here:

Today, SpaceX seemed to do a test of full stacking with the chopsticks on the Starship launch/catch tower.

NICE. I saw a bunch of light and people hanging out in the world be bar/restaurant on top of the high bay- kind of wondering of he plans to give it from up there.
