@lexfridman Nice @lexfridman . Thank you for your relentless energy and love for humans.

I got to visit and train jiu jitsu with Matt, my close friend of 25+ years in Chicago. His family is originally from Iran, mine is originally from the Soviet Union (Russia, Ukraine, Tajikistan). Over the years, I've made friends with people from all walks of life, all major religions, who come from nations that are at war with each other. Those things were never a source of division, just beautiful details that strengthened our friendship. I think this is what drives me in conversations and friendships today: to try & show our common humanity, and to celebrate it.

@Tesla @doublehell are you on the wait list?

Making sci-fi a reality

Cybertruck deliveries begin today!

– More utility than a truck, faster than a sports car

11,000 lbs towing capacity, 2,500 lbs max payload.

Est. 340 miles of range. (Dual Motor)

0-60 in 2.6 seconds. (Tri Motor)

– Ultra-hard stainless steel exoskeleton & shatter-resistant Armor Glass

Fewer dents, less damage & long-term corrosion. Easy & simple repairs.

Armor Glass can resist the impact of a baseball at 70 mph or class IV hail & acoustic glass helps make the cabin insanely quiet.

– Steer-by-wire & rear steering

Gives you the handling of a sports car & a better turning radius than most sedans. Also, incredible stability & maneuverability for a full-size truck.

– 4-corner adaptive air suspension

Offers 12” of travel & 17” of clearance.

– Plenty of storage

6’x4’ bed that doesn't need a liner & is big enough for 4'x8’ construction materials.

67 cu ft of lockable storage (additional 54 cu ft available with rear seats folded up), with a Vault cover that’s strong enough to walk on.

– Power everything

Integrated outlets: 120v cabin power, 120v & 240v bed power.
If the grid goes down, Cybertruck can provide up to 11.5 kW of power directly to your home.

– Space & comfort like a living room

18.5” touchscreen in the front & 9.4” touchscreen in the back, both with all-new UI.

15 speakers with 2 dedicated subwoofers & distributed amplifiers create a studio quality sound stage—obviously goes to 11.

Built-in hospital grade HEPA filter.

@doublehell @elonmusk Sounds like a good request.

[Peter Beck @Peter_J_Beck]

Tough day. My deepest apologies to our mission partners Capella Space. Team is already working on root cause. We’ll find it, fix it and be back on the pad quickly.

[Lex Fridman @lexfridman]

To me, it's 99% probability that the universe is full of alien life. I hope we'll find conclusive evidence of it in my lifetime.

@elonmusk Person of eternity. No less. Disruption is confronting and necessary.

Of all the reasons to get "canceled" for, a reading list is my favorite 🤣 Thank you for that ❤️

I'll continue reading & re-reading great books and sharing stuff I love with the world.

PS: Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing for them to fail.

While casting shade on @elonmusk for what he’s done, is doing, or will do, try to pause & remember that he made electric cars a normal thing in society and he commercialized space — for cargo, satellites, & people.

Count him among those who are inventing civilization’s future.
