In a phone call, Matute highlighted the difficulty of obtaining access rights to subsurface property: Since a property owner has rights to the land beneath their house, tunneling below private property requires what's known as an easement, the permission for a third party to operate in the underground portion of the land.

But while new tunneling tech is fine and dandy, it's not going to decrease the cost of things like land and compliance, nor is it likely to make construction so much cheaper that digging hundreds of extra tunnels and stations so people can go directly to the Whole Foods entrance is suddenly feasible.

They're called "bollard-style," or "PV1," or "Normandy-style," and essentially involve thick reinforced bars or slats of steel that stand about 18 feet tall, often 6-by-6 inches wide and filled with rebar and concrete for strength, and typically set 6 feet below the ground to prevent tunneling under them.

Just last week during SXSW in Austin, Secretary of Transportation Elaine Chao announced the creation of the Non-Traditional and Emerging Transportation Technology (NETT) Council, an internal organization designed to resolve jurisdictional and regulatory gaps that may impede the deployment of new technology, such as tunneling, hyperloop, autonomous vehicles and other innovations.

I don't know what my logic is here, or even if there is a logic, but somewhere in the tunneling electricity of my brain I think that I have come to the conclusion that the disappointment, the sadness at leaving the battlefields of the Great War, will be lessened if I'm able to decouple myself from it.

With a few exceptions, feedback has been very positive and we have received verbal support from key government decision-makers for tunneling plans, including a Hyperloop route from New York to Washington, DC. We look forward to future conversations with the cities and states along this route and we expect to secure the formal approvals necessary to break ground later this year. [Twitter]

As David Sweat and Richard Matt chipped away at the wall of their tunnel located between two cell blocks of Clinton Correctional Facility last spring, the pair were reminded of the critically acclaimed 53 film, which tells the story of Andy Dufresne, a man wrongly convicted of murder who spends 20 years tunneling his way out of prison using only a rock hammer.

As with the Netyksho indictment, the report describes the GRU's use of various customized malware, including X-Agent, a cross-platform remote access toolkit, which enabled the GRU to record thousands of keylogging sessions, and X-Tunnel, a network tunneling tool that enabled large-scale data transfers from the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) networks to GRU-controlled computers.

Musk famously appeared to jump the gun describing his plans to expand his tunneling project on the East Coast of the US when he tweeted that he was given "verbal permission" to build a high-speed system between New York City and Washington, DC — but Maryland state officials later publicly gave him permission to dig there, so the project might be closer to reality than first thought.
