Trump, on Truth social network, said slavery wasn’t all bad and to say so is woke.

I can’t believe we have a President in 2025 that says that buying and selling humans in our past was not objectionable. It clearly was and there was a literal war about it.

Psa for those with Tesla stock. Tesla is reliant on LiDar as evidenced by all the Model Ys driving around town mapping everything. They look like someone strapped a ladder to a roof rack, but they’re stationary lidar.

Seen about 8 of them thus far.

I liked the world better when I would lookup and see world events once or so per day.

They’ve promoted another Racing Bull to Red Bull. Third times the charm I guess?!

I’m betting Elon is making. Team of people work some crazy hours right now to launch a political party by the end of the weekend.

I’d hate to work for that guy..

If AI can write code so well then frameworks will die and we’ll just manage native code for major platforms, right?

Why do we need middle layers?

We likely will manage the requirements that said frameworks enforced tho.

The average consumer’s car won’t be needed during the workday so it won’t actually pay for itself… especially if everyone’s car is available.. self driving cars won’t pay for themselves any better than electric cars have saved gas money without subsidies.

The average consumer’s car or way of doing something isn’t good enough for them to rent out to any other person. Especially when you are paying for a service.🧵

Despite years of gig economy businesses replacing mid size businesses across the US we not learned a few things:

If Trump deports Musk then Musk can’t technically bankroll another political party because he’d be a foreigner. This is some ‘Housewives level drama.

Why does Musk think it’s OK to test his technology on the public’s lives when everyone else (of which there are many farther along) followed the rules and proved safety first.

My safety shouldn’t be at risk because he wants to make a name for himself before he dies.

The number of errant videos online for the really small launch is concerning.

Semi trucks are already autonomous driving from Houston to Dallas via a different company (who uses lidar).

No one says the 80% case of driving is hard. The 20% is where people think lidar is necessary.
🧵

The cars are limited to an area of only a few square miles which are carefully mapped and don’t contain tricky intersections, by their own release.

The speed limit is 40 on those roads.

The service was launched despite lawmakers asking Tesla to wait till Sept when new regulations go into effect.

All the Robotaxi info seems to be coming from past Musk statements and not actual truth.

The 10 or so cars are being ridden by an exclusive set of carefully selected Pro Tesla people. 🧵

Picture frame TVs are a feature to keep you from unplugging them from the internet and using an AppleTV so everything isn’t reported back to advertisers. FYI

Your internet connected TV or Roku report back every show, movie, ad you see using image processing.

Tesla “launch” in Austin is in small area without complex intersections and was fully mapped with lidar ahead. Within hours of launch it was caught driving on the wrong side of the road. No one said they couldn’t make a car that works 80% of the time. Right now it drives worse than a teen.

Such a setup would require low management overhead.. which we haven’t seen in big tech yet.

I’d be happy to pay 5 or ten bucks a month subscription for a family and friends only social media platform that doesn’t harvest my data for use other than me conversing with my family and friends. Me thinks Apple might be setting up for such a thing in a few years with Journals. 🧵

I appreciate your insightful posts. You surface nuances in healthcare that the public couldn’t know that you do know because of cost plus.

Even DJT wants a sticker for his Tesla saying he bought it before Elon went crazy.. #SadOrangeTrombone

Asking for a friend, does Trump still have his Tesla from the white house commercial?

Posts from POTUS seem to lack truth. Statements from social media aren’t even true if you squint. Trumpers can’t claim this is just marketing speak. Why do people trust Trump?

Also, why are we roiling markets with random tariff declarations again?

Not taxing tips will encourage employers to reduce wages and increase the jobs that rely on the tip pool. It’s common business sense to cut out the taxes if you can..

It will also create less income stability for those who get converted to tipped percentage jobs.

#LookFartherThanYourNose

If we green light this then we need to do the same for appointed officials. A handful of them pitch their recent usefulness each week and the public calls in to vote on who stays vs who Trump needs to reappoint.

Congress isn’t vetting them so let the public.

So now producers of a TV show get to decide who gets priority for immigration processing? We needed to fix immigration processing, but this is the disgusting. bsky.app/profile/thed...

Real FSD is only possible in HW5 and he won’t refund or install it in cars who paid for actual self driving lawsuits will accumulate. People will sue that their car isn’t appreciating. Robot and AI tech will be shared to xAI..

Tesla will fall like Enron and BMW will buy it for the infra.

Prediction:

Musk started xAI to so he could undo financial and control mistakes made with acquiring Twitter. Having xAI acquire Twitter did that.

Tesla is on a slide and its value is tied in AI, not selling cars or solar. As it becomes clear that 🧵

If Trump believes the 14th amendment doesn’t read correctly because the Framers didn’t have all the context that we have then we’ll need to look at a few more with that mindset if his stupid order is upheld.

There is no free lunch, but apparently there are free luxury 747s.

Or some people just don’t care to hide the bribe because it just might be the biggest in history and they’re a narcissist.

If someone gives you a 400 million dollar anything then they expect something in return.

Sharks in shark tank don’t even part with 100k without getting blood.

Also, transferring such valuable gift directly to your own “library.”

The corruption couldn’t be more blatant. #SadOrangeTrombone 🥺🍊🎺
