I honestly find it hilarious here in Germany how many people have stickers like this on their Teslas
"I bought this before Elon went crazy"
Elon was always crazy, that is why you are driving his car in Germany, even though everyone told him it would not work, and he never gave up.
I saw someone who had "F Elon" on his new Model Y. So you hate Elon so much, but you know his cars are the best cars to buy in Germany? That to me is crazy.
So if everyone is crazy, and these people all call Elon crazy... Maybe it is not Elon that is the problem or the crazy one?
Germans are not thankful enough for Elon 💔

FSD Supervised has been approved in the Netherlands 🇳🇱 & will begin rolling out in the country shortly!
Trained on billions of kilometers of real-world driving data, it can drive you almost anywhere under your supervision – from residential roads to city streets & highways
No other vehicle can do this.
We're excited to bring FSD Supervised to more European countries soon
So far I had the best results with Gemini for complex/legal German pdf docs. Lately, it has become very disappointing with crazy hallucinations levels, confidently quoting texts that absolutely don't exist, even challenging me when I bring this fact up. Grok is super useful now!
@vm_one1@waEMD@SpaceX We will probably IPO Starlink, but only several years in the future when revenue growth is smooth & predictable. Public market does *not* like erratic cash flow haha. I’m a huge fan of small retail investors. Will make sure they get top priority. You can hold me to it.
Ahoy! In order to celebrate the 'International Talk Like a Pirate Day' today, be sure to give custom instructions to your favourite LLM to get real scallywag replies.
In b4 the "triillionaires bad" meltdown, when you deliver $7.5 trillion in shareholder value, you deserve a $1 trillion compensation package. Fact.
The next decade is going to be very interesting. $TSLA
For the past several days, Tesla has been testing self-driving Model Y cars (no one in driver’s seat) on Austin public streets with no incidents.
A month ahead of schedule.
Next month, first self-delivery from factory to customer.
@karpathy After about 2 years using Oura, my best sleep score ever was 98. I've never hit 100. I wasn't sure if this was even possible but their in-app LLM assistant says yes
I have worked closely with Elon for over 20 years. His heart is pure, and his sole mission is to help humanity. During the darkest moments, he has shown me the path to choose courage and compassion over fear and hate. To believe anything else is absurd.
Elon being the richest man in the world is the least interesting thing about him, yet that’s how he is labeled by nearly everyone.
It’s more accurate to say that he owns more productive capital than anyone on earth, which is also a crushing responsibility with many burdens.
Don’t call him a billionaire, call him “chief engineer” or “strategic national asset” or something. This captures his actual role better.
When people hear the phrase “richest man in the world” they immediately think of yachts, mansions, private islands, etc. But in reality Elon spends most of his time serving his customers, his employees, his investors, his government, and his fellow citizens.
🚨ELON MUSK ON EUROPEAN CENSORSHIP:
"There's some weird things going on in Europe. We've got bureaucracy here but in Europe they've got country bureaucracy and EU bureaucracy on top of that. It's next level.
Unlike America, they DON'T have a first amendment, there's no freedom of speech, so the US is a rare situation.
There are people getting 2-3 year prison sentences for Facebook posts.
I don't think I should go visit Britain because they'll drag out some tweet and say 'two years in prison for this tweet' or some bullshit like that.
We need to post a stop to that.
No putting people in prison for random social media posts.
That's crazy."
Incredibly inappropriate. What I post on this platform has nothing to do with a “coastal commission” in California!
Filing suit against them on Monday for violating the First Amendment.
The collapsing birth rate is actually way worse than you think.
One of the biggest things I've realized since becoming a father 3 months ago is that I spend an obscene amount of time thinking about the future.
This is because I want my child to have the best possible place to grow up in.
And thus, I spend way too much time looking at how society is functioning today and where the weaknesses are.
What's becoming painfully clear is that everything is broken.
Our Government overspends like crazy and they never tell the truth.
Our corporations are way too bloated, rarely innovate, and they are more than comfortable lowering quality over time while increasing profit margins.
Our Mainstream Media is a national embarrassment and is nothing more than a propaganda machine for the government.
I am now constantly filled with a sense of dread. It feels like a good future is almost impossible given the amount of stuff that is completely broken today.
However - once I start thinking about the past, and compare it to today, I realize that things are so much better than they used to be, so it gives me hope that a better future is possible with enough effort and pain.
But here's the MASSIVE problem - without a child, I would've never felt as motivated as I do now to make the future a better place.
And then it dawned on me that the declining birth rate is not just a simple math problem - it fundamentally de-incentivizes civilization to look forward.
This means that there are less people now - more than ever in recent recorded history - that don't have that child making it painfully obvious how broken everything is, and how desperately we need to make everything better for our children.
Instead, we are distracted by ever-increasing technological wonders that will be maximally optimized to draw your attention away from reality using AI algorithms.
We are distracted by amazing products and services, and incredible destinations to visit.
We are distracted by social media platforms that make it extremely difficult to stop paying attention to them.
We are truly in a very, very, very dangerous place.
We need more people speaking up about things that need to be fixed.
We need more entrepreneurs tackling difficult problems.
We need more public servants that have the people's best interest in mind.
We need so much.
But more important than all - we need more children.
Children are the future, and without them, the future will disappear.
Literally.
