The new standard models don't come with a rear screen. How will this work if planning to use them in the robotaxi fleet? will passengers start rides and do everything from the app instead of from the rear screen? $TSLA

@tetsuoai so many people are going to completely understate the importance of this. usa fabricated chips is one thing, but elon is going to the kind of depths of the supply chain most companies aren't willing to go and that's why $tsla will be a massive future player in AI.

@ChrisDungeon While certainly not perfect, my batting average for most predictions is quite good. My schedule optimism, without which I probably wouldn’t even have tried to do many endeavors, gets the best of me sometimes, but I always deliver in the end.

Currently driving home to attend the funeral of a relative. She was 63 and in perfect health. Woke up one day in February and couldn’t use her hand. Diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor and gone 5 months later. Life is so damn fragile. Hug your loved ones close.

Entrepreneurship is not risky. Risky is spending your life at a job you hate, with people you don’t like, working on problems you don’t care about.

.@CocaCola and @PepsiCo have caused more harm to global health than likely any other company. Just look at the correlation between diabetes/obesity and soft drink consumption. It is remarkable that the plaintiffs bar has not yet won a massive judgment against them.
Early in my career, I consulted for Coke to ensure sugar taxes failed and soda was included in food stamp funding. I say Coke's policies are evil because I saw inside the room. The first step in playbook was paying the NAACP + other civil rights groups to call opponents racist

based on twitter and comments on sites like seeking alpha, TSLA sentiment is lower than at points when it was nearing bankruptcy.. time to load the boat.

Steve Jobs died at 56. Kobe Bryant died at 41. Marilyn Monroe died at 36. Jimi Hendrix died at 27. Why didn't I spend another 10 years in an office to stockpile more cash? Because it ain't worth it.

Everyone gonna hate this take, but the Dodgers getting bumped in the NLDS again during their run of regular season dominance makes what the Astros have done even more impressive. Six straight ALCS appearances when the Division Series can be a motherfucker even for the best teams.
