Everyone thinks Robo Taxis are chaos—popcorn explosions, Minecraft chicken jockeys, backseat risque adventures.
Reality? A little broth, wiped up with a napkin.
The real surprise? $LMND.
No flash, just fundamentals. $1B+ in premium, stabilized margins, and a quiet march toward profitability by 2028.
This is how conviction compounds.
🇱🇻 Latvia - Apr 25 - BEV Trajectory (used)
7.3% BEV
3.1% PHEV
89.6% ICE
Trailing 12 months are:
5.6% BEV
2.2% PHEV
92.2% ICE
The used market in Latvia is a complete 180 compared to their new car market.
"The push to electrify has shaped the country’s industrial policy. A handful of leading Chinese solar groups are pouring billions of dollars each year into research and development spending."
#alwaysbecharging
"A big chunk of that planned spending on the grid, around $13.8bn this year and $15.4bn in the years following is expected for ultra-high-voltage lines, according to UBS
China has more than 40 such lines, which means solar & wind electricity generated in the western deserts of Xinjiang and Gansu can be delivered to the factory hubs in southern and eastern China where it is needed"

Finland is stabilizing their adoption. They almost have the 2024 one-off effect behind them.
🇸🇪 Sweden - Apr 25 - BEV Trajectory
34.1% BEV
27.1% PHEV
38.8% ICE (of which 7.5%p are HEV)
Trailing 12 months are:

Sweden is having a bit more trouble recovering from 2024, but they're still fine overall.
Denmark’s electric vehicle surge is just incredible. 🚗⚡️
Feb 2025: BEV 66.1%, PHEV 2.8%, ICE 31.1%
Trailing 12M: 54.4% BEV
➡️ Only Norway ahead now, Sweden 3rd.
⛔️ ICE extinction incoming?
The internal combustion engine is pretty much over in Scandinavia.

The claim is that Starship V3 delivers 400 times more payload than Falcon 1 for less cost. Starship V3 is projected to carry 200 tons to low Earth orbit, while Falcon 1 carried 0.5 tons, confirming the 400x payload ratio (200,000 kg / 500 kg). Falcon 1's launch cost was $6-9 million, and Starship V3 costs are estimated at $1-3 million, potentially under $6 million due to reusability. However, Starship V3 costs are unconfirmed, and development expenses could raise actual costs. SpaceX’s reusability success supports the claim, but it remains speculative until V3 is operationalThe claim is that Starship V3 delivers 400 times more payload than Falcon 1 for less cost.

Elon Musk:
“Falcon 1 is about half a ton to orbit. Starship 3 will be 400 times more payload for less than the cost of a Falcon 1. These are unthinkable numbers. Nobody ever thought this was possible.”

China is continuing to destroy legacy automakers by switching to BEV extremely fast. It's even more impressive considering their size.
**Breaking Tesla Semi News: US Foods branded Tesla semi seen near Giga Nevada**
The program continues to show positive momentum with multiple new customers receiving the clean air vehicles.
I believe this to be a training run with a with Tesla driver/instructor showing the US Foods driver the ropes. Do you spot a second person in the jump seat?
Notice this is a refrigerated trailer.
Good stuff!
China's maglev train has just reached a speed of 620 mi/h - faster than most commercial aircraft.
It is the next phase of ultra-high-speed train transport. With magnetic levitation technology and no physical contact with the tracks, the future of transport is not only fast, but also smooth.
The technology was developed originally by Siemens in Germany and stolen in and from China during a test phase.
If China's 888 GW of installed solar operated at U.S. capacity factors, it would generate 44% of U.S. electricity.
We have a massive irradiance advantage, especially compared to Southeastern China.
The U.S. should dominate in solar, but we are getting absolutely smoked.
Even with poorer solar resources, China generates 3x as much electricity from solar. China's solar generation now exceeds U.S. nuclear.
(and exceeds Chinese nuclear by a factor of 2)
TLDR: 25 launches approved ✅, Pad B approved ✅, upgraded Starship approved ✅, Landings in Gulf of Mexico, Indian Ocean, and Pacific Ocean (around Hawaii and Southeast Pacific) approved ✅.
What's more cursed is that the docs still mention Starship & Super Heavy droneship landings: "For ocean landings, Super Heavy would land on a droneship or continue to be expended". "Starship could land on a droneship (floating platform) or be expended".
