Musk is the preeminent welfare queen...

To be fair, the current administration has so gutted the IRS that an audit would be unlikely regardless.

LOL @ "competent government". We haven't had one of those in quite a while...

It's all pump and dump bullshit... You can't have a 2T value when the most the company has made in a year is 19B.

I would support that as well. That is a toxic company.

Because FSD pulls drivers into a sense of complacensyct, so when something goes wrong a panic reaction can cause catastrophic consequences.

I have a neighbor who says she watches YouTube videos while driving between Florida and Virginia. So much for being aware and ready to take control...

Tesla needs to be a co-defendent in this case.

That's now how the owners of all of these 'full self driving' cars feel ..

I've worked with computers long enough to never EVER want to trust one to drive.

Pretty much fuck any car that's connected to the internet...

Interesting. Well that's terrifying. A little spray point and I can make an 85 mile an hour zone!

Not really. Most of the cars that display speed limits do it by retrieving data from an online source. I don't think any of them actually read signs actually.

That makes me happy. :)

A while back I worked for a company that liked to pull the "lets lay people off right before earnings reports to make the stockholders happy" and then call them back after the shareholders meetings..

They found, after a few cycles of this, that when they did that, the top 30% of employees laid off would have already found other jobs by the time they were recalled.. They also found that a few cycles of culling the top 30% means after a while your entire workforce is largely worthless, add to the fact that now you have to hire new people and train them...it ended up costing more money than it made them... (but they didn't care, because the share value boost was all they wanted, so they could personally sell high after the bump and enrich themselves..

I work for a company now that values and celebrates employees with long tenures.. They see it as a sign of health in the company (which it is) and celebrate the number of 10+ year veterans employed by them..

I got lucky finding this place. :)
