Researcher by nature, trying to figure things out. If that works out, I might tweet abt it. I tend to call out logically-inconsistent stuff; it’s not personal.
This is what caused the delay in Optimus production. They intended to build around 5,000 bots this year but that was v.2, and possibly they thought some small improvements can be implemented as they go. With v.3 being a major redesign they had to order new parts from suppliers…
Elon Musk today: "Optimus V3 is the right design to go to volume production. It is a significant redesign from V2. In fact, almost nothing stays the same." via @theXtakeover
What's truly insane is that Elon Musk reposted this even though he's fully aware the Optimus bot was teleoperated in this scenario... like, is he trying to congratulate the human manipulator, or...?
This is such a fucking weird, simplistic take! Tesla had a great sales performance in Europe in 2022-2023. I was posting about it at the time, which clearly means I was bullish. Tesla's sales performance suffered since then, and is currently at a low. I'm posting about it now,…
you strike me as a bull turned bear
British men discovering that "use your imagination" is easier said than done. 🤣
Interesting idea, but I see it as highly unlikely to be implemented by Tesla, mainly due to potential confusion for owners and the insurance nightmare. Hopefully we get unsupervised Robotaxi this year in at least one and maybe a few cities in the US. Unsupervised FSD in…
Unsupervised FSD is closer than you think. In this video, I break down the reasons why I think I'll be able to use unsupervised FSD in my own Tesla in Austin before the year is over: • How Tesla's geofenced Robotaxi network is the key. • Creating hyper-realistic simulations…
Roundabout final boss FSD Supervised tackling Swindon Magic Roundabout in 🇬🇧
"Tesla was the top BEV brand in Europe in June, and the Model Y is the best-selling EV model in 2025! What demand problem???" is what you're likely to hear from some uberbulls desperate to reinforce the narrative. What you won't hear: - the Model Y was the best-selling car (of…
I completely missed this when scanning the update letter, thanks Sawyer! 🎉
NEWS: Tesla has confirmed today for the first time that they have begun testing FSD (Supervised) in London. Real photo:
In Q2, $TSLA generated an average of $5.9k per sold vehicle, up from $4.7k in Q1. Nice!
Um… are we supposed to dress up for this?!? I’m confused…
Are we ready for earnings? 💚
Optimus might be able to autonomously bring food to cars at Tesla’s Diner by December 2026, most likely not on roller skates!
We’ve delegated basic math operations to calculators in the ‘80s, and that made our lives slightly easier and more convenient. We’ve delegated the work of finding info to online search engines like Google in the 2000s, and again our lives became easier. We’ve stopped memorizing…
“I love it when the authorities place their boot on my neck if it’s about stuff that I personally agree with and that I stand to benefit financially from! Who needs freedom of choice anyway?!? Big Government FTW!” 🤦🏻♂️
The EU Commission plans BEV Sales Only in Europe for Company Cars in 2030 The current regulation for the end of the ICE is 2035, but now the EU Commission is planning according to media reports a regulation that obliges all company cars to buy only BEVs 5 years earlier, in 2030.…
NEWS: Trump discussed ending some of @SpaceX's contracts, but administration officials determined that they couldn’t eliminate most of those contracts because they are critical to the Defense Department and NASA. "The early assessment underscored SpaceX dominance as the world’s…
Hey @WholeMarsBlog, your chart shows raw crash counts rising, but that's because Waymo's scaling: more cars, more miles (71M+ rider-only by Mar 2025). Normalize it—crashes per million miles drop to 0.6 vs humans' 2.8, an 80% reduction (NHTSA data, Waymo studies). Safety's…
