Aggressive Turning, Unsafe Following and Hard Braking are metrics tracked by #TeslaInsurance. It would
be helpful to see these in realtime. Can Tesla create an in-car app to display or notify with chimes, when thresholds for these metrics are being approached.
@notadvice @CaptainDilla @georgesantos@BigBri_1 Taking action against them, assuming this isn’t all BS in the first place… would take weeks if not months…. There is nothing to be gained by waiting until she’s already elected. If it’s enough to impeach her… 14 months later we get Uncle Weirdo takes her place….
A). This isn’t actual customer deliveries but sales to dealerships. (My local GMC dealership now has 7 new Hummers on the lot, which has steadily been increasing for the last 60 days. I’d be surprised if even 1 has sold).
B) They discontinued the Bolt. Possibly the single dumbest move GM has made since the 350 Oldsmobile Diesel. I didn’t care for the Bolt but it seemed like the best EV GM was making.
@rajuvamsi007@SawyerMerritt Yep, and my local dealership has 7 HUMMERS sitting on its lot. I watched the number go from 3 to 7 over the last 60 days. I’d be surprised if even one was has sold in that time.
@KevinMelnuk@cybrtrkguy The price is driven by the demand. Why would they sell them for $85k when they can sell every single one they are making today at $120k? Just like every other Tesla model, the prices will drop when capacity exceeds demand.
Despite loss of many tiles and a damaged flap, Starship made it all the way to a soft landing in the ocean!
Congratulations @SpaceX team on an epic achievement!!
Moments after Ben Sasse walked off the Senate floor, my business partner asked him if things were busy at the Capitol. He quickly replied, with a rueful smile, “always busy, rarely effective.”
It’s a phrase that stuck with me, and probably a big part of why Ben left a career in politics to run The University of Florida. I know from several conversations with him that he’d grown frustrated with the political machine and yearned to do something meaningful with his considerable talents. Something that could truly move the country in a positive direction. Well, mission accomplished. Ben Sasse has just demonstrated how to save America’s Universities. Consider this from the attached article.
“To cherish the First Amendment rights of speech and assembly, we draw a hard line at unlawful action. Speech isn’t violence. Silence isn’t violence. Violence is violence. Just as we have an obligation to protect speech, we have an obligation to keep our students safe. Throwing fists, storming buildings, vandalizing property, spitting on cops and hijacking a university aren’t speech.”
And this…
“Appeasing mobs emboldens agitators elsewhere. Moving classes online is a retreat that penalizes students and rewards protesters. Participating in live-streamed struggle sessions doesn’t promote honest, good-faith discussion. Universities need to be strong defenders of the entire community, including students in the library on the eve of an exam, and stewards of our fundamental educational mission.”
And finally, this, in response to criticism that he unfairly arrested violent protestors and thrown them out of school.
“We said it. We meant it. We enforced it. We wish we didn’t have to, but the students weighed the costs, made their decisions, and will own the consequences as adults. We’re a university, not a daycare. We don’t coddle emotions, we wrestle with ideas.”
Ben Sasse is still as busy as he’s ever been. But now, he’s effective. Actually, he’s more than effective. He’s the right man, in the right place, doing the right thing, at exactly the right time. A leader, in other words. And a true role-model.
I wish to God he was calling the shots at every university in the country.

Dan, your unrelenting passion brings a profound depth of meaning to the hard work of so many others. People like David Dunning, Justin Kruger, Lloyd Christmas and Harry Dunne, just to name a few.
Keep up the hard work and history will remember you among the ranks of giants like Navin Johnson, Elizabeth Warren, and Joshua Edward Norton.
It’s not a slight, it’s because Tom Zhu is the man for the job in China. FSD roll-out, Robotaxi, the Model2, Chinese competition in the cheap EV space…. and Model Y refresh… Giga Pack Factory delays….take your pick, who better than Tom Zhu?
Elon’s back at Giga Texas more than you are at your full time job. While he’s minding the store in the US, he needs Tom to be where he cant be himself: China, full time.
Although Boeing got $4.2 billion to develop an astronaut capsule and SpaceX only got $2.6 billion, SpaceX finished 4 years sooner.
Note, the crew capsule design of Dragon 2 has almost nothing in common with Dragon 1.
Too many non-technical managers at Boeing.
