Today is Labor Day. My real job for 40 years was having a dietetic practice. I saw patients in nine cities and three countries. Here are some photos from Los Angeles, Toronto, Johannesburg and Durban.
I write about my practice in my new book, coming out in eight days. Very excite
What I like about the Cybercab is that it only has two seats. In the eight years I lived in Los Angeles and had a Tesla S, I used four seats twice, and two seats four times. So, most of the time I was driving alone. A smaller car that’s safe and drives itself would’ve been fabulo
I still can’t believe the entire outer body of the Cybercab is PLASTIC.
I think this is the first production Tesla vehicle built this way.
Tesla molds the COLOR directly into the panels using reaction injection molding.
Far from a traditional paint shop.
A process that can take hours with normal automotive paint can now take minutes.
Tesla says this cuts manufacturing emissions for those parts by around 35% and eliminates the paint VOCs from the traditional process.
And before anyone says, “But what about safety?”
The plastic exterior is not the crash structure.
The massive front and rear giga castings underneath are doing that job.
I rode in the Cybercab myself.
Trust me, it does NOT feel cheap at all.
It actually makes you realize what Tesla is trying to do here.
Fewer parts.
Fewer manufacturing steps.
No traditional paint shop.
Faster production.
Lower cost.
The unboxed process…
This is so much more than Tesla just using plastic to make a cheap car.
Tesla is completely rethinking how you build millions of robotaxis.
The Scissor Test.
Within the first few weeks of me joining TBC, Steve gave me the direction that he wanted to be able to walk around a Prufrock with a pair of scissors, be able to cut any wire, and the machine should still be able to mine.
Obviously this was a hypothetical exercise, but the goal was real.
What followed was a deep system-wide failure mode effects analysis and a complete redesign of the machine’s electrical system to be able to pass the scissor test. There are still a few single points of failure where the complexity or cost tradeoff doesn’t make sense to design out, but for the most part Prufrock now passes the scissor test.
Being robust to a single failure is obviously important, but equally as important is observability of those failures. Without observability, a failure can lay latent in the system without anyone noticing for years and then when the backup fails the system will still go down.
For this reason we make sure to instrument each redundant connection so when any failure happens we instantly know, get a notification, and can schedule a repair for the next maintenance day - all while Prufrock keeps mining. That’s what lets these machines keep mining continuously with zero people in the tunnel.

Our last night in Shanghai with my CAA China agents. Magnificent flowers, fantastic dinner, amazing night view and Teslas, of course.

Here's a little more of my incredible story! Thank you @neuralink for sharing! I can't believe this is real life and just think I'm just now 1 year into the journey of a being Neuralnaut. Check out my website https://t.co/scor0kP8QH!
SpaceX engineers spent several days inspecting Ship 40 in the waters off Christmas Island. They collected heatshield samples and gained vital insight into how the vehicle handled reentry with improvements now planned on future vehicles
