When I read the headline I assumed that glass house was a technical term for some financial bullshit but no. He is just building a house with a lot of glass in it. Using company funds to build a private house is almost vanilla when it comes to musk.

I thought it was a satirical article about how the companies kept him away from business operations by putting him in a glass house, where he could throw stones from.
So the doj cast the first stone?
Netflix's glass onion may end up a prediction on the level of Idiocracy
You know what they say, people in glass houses sink sh-sh-ships.
Why don't you make like a tree, and get the fuck out of my bar
The glass onion?
I thought Edward Norton was just meant to be a Musk-like Billionaire narcissist, but I didn't realize Musk was actually trying to get to that level.
DONG!
The house, probably
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Tesla is facing scrutiny over its mysterious "Project 42" that was believed internally to involve building a glass house for Elon Musk, according to a recent report from The Wall Street Journal.
The publication said, citing people familiar with the issue, that federal prosecutors are investigating whether Tesla used its own funds for Musk's personal use, and is looking into how much the company has spent on the initiative, as well as its purpose.
The US Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York issued subpoenas to multiple current and ex-Tesla employees, some of which have been asked to appear in court in September, Bloomberg reported on Wednesday.
The project appeared to be for a "dramatic glass-walled building" and concept plans showed differing designs and features, but included residential elements like bedrooms, according to the report.
At the time, the internal inquiry into the order had targeted Omead Afshar, an executive leading Tesla's Texas factory, Bloomberg reported last year.
On Wednesday, the publication reported that federal prosecutors were seeking information related to internal communications with Afshar, who was said to be involved in purchasing the construction materials.

Probably a reference to the "Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything".
I would believe it but this is Elon and its absolutely a 420 reference. Somewhere there is a blueprint that says 42.0 because it's the first draft.
420 is just the answer to everything times ten
I hope not, don’t need that fuckwit associated with the Guide in any way in my head. He is a most unhoopy frood.
I have bad news for you. He names stuff after cult shit.
So he's gonna infect every X users phone with malware to create a massive cloud computing brain?
That’s why Apple is dropping support for iPhone X in two weeks
I wonder what project 42 really is? A submarine made out of model 3 parts /s
I think it is drummed up crap to make a publicity, but what do I know (or care, I shouldn't have engaged even).
It’s probably a live/work space experiment born from all the times Elon slept under his desk. He wants offices with dorms so people don’t need to go home and have lives.
isn't this kinda like China, I thought conservatives were opposed to that /s
This made me think of that crazy movie, Movie 43. Some of the skits are pretty funny, but I have no idea how they got so many A listers to be in this movie. https://youtu.be/eUgEpKnkC7w?si=G2PeSGxa3OXXuOgc
