NEWS: Tesla logs ~2,000 sales commitments in Uruguay in its first weekend

200 units went in the first 24 hours after prices went live.

By the following Monday the figure had reached ~2,000 orders backed by deposits.

Prices start at $32,990 including local taxes for the Model 3 and Model Y, with cars shipping from Gigafactory Shanghai.

First deliveries run October through December.

Uruguay is small but it is one of the most EV ready markets anywhere.

Electric vehicles took ~20% of new car sales in 2025 and 29% by April 2026.

President Yamandú Orsi attended the Montevideo launch on July 17 alongside Industry Minister Fernanda Cardona.

Regulators had pre approved three variants each of the Model 3 and Model Y beforehand.

Even BYD ran an ad welcoming Tesla to the country.

Un estudio recién salido del horno demuestra que la razón principal por la que el uso de la bici ha explotado en París es que se han construído carriles bici. La gente sólo estaba esperando a poder ir segura. Aquí podéis leerlo 👇🏻: https://t.co/XHBXhwwNAV

One of our new Gemma open models, Cell2Sentence-Scale, has identified a novel cancer therapy pathway that’s been validated experimentally in living cells. Developed w/ @GoogleDeepMind & @Yale University, it looks deep into how to represent cells & biological information for AI ↓

[Sundar Pichai @sundarpichai]

An exciting milestone for AI in science: Our C2S-Scale 27B foundation model, built with @Yale and based on Gemma, generated a novel hypothesis about cancer cellular behavior, which scientists experimentally validated in living cells. 

With more preclinical and clinical tests, this discovery may reveal a promising new pathway for developing therapies to fight cancer.

This fascinating paper shows that scientists and inventors are drawing on less and less existing knowledge over time

They document:
• A decline in the diversity of work cited
• An increase in the share of citations to the 1% most highly cited papers and patents
• A decrease in semantic diversity of those sources
• An increase in self-citation
• An increase in the mean age of work cited, a common measure for the use of dated knowledge

Over time, scientists and inventors are increasingly citing the same previous work, and that previous work is becoming more similar

Their hypothesis is that innovators are struggling to keep up with the pace of knowledge expansion

I think it's time for better personal knowledge management!

BRAZIL IS ON THE BRINK

I’m reporting to you from Brazil, where a dramatic series of events are underway.

At 5:52 pm Eastern Time, today, April 6, 2024, X corporation, formerly known as Twitter, announced that a Brazilian court had forced it to “block certain popular accounts in Brazil.”

Then, less than one hour later, the owner of X, @ElonMusk announced that X would defy the court’s order, and lift all restrictions.

“As a result,” said Musk, “we will probably lose all revenue in Brazil and have to shut down our office there. But principles matter more than profit.”

At any moment, Brazil’s Supreme Court could shut off all access to X/Twitter for the people of Brazil.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Brazil is on the brink of dictatorship at the hands of a totalitarian Supreme Court Justice named Alexandre de Moraes.

President Lula da Silva is participating in the push toward totalitarianism. Since taking office, Lula has massively increased government funding of the mainstream news media, most of which are encouraging increased censorship.

What Lula and de Moraes are doing is an outrageous violation of Brazil’s constitution and the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights.

At this moment, Brazil is not yet a dictatorship. It still has elections and the Brazilian people have other means at their disposal to confront authoritarianism.

But the Federal Supreme Court and the Superior Electoral Court are directly interfere in those elections through censorship.

Three days ago I published the Twitter Files for Brazil. They show that Moraes has violated the Brazilian Constitution. Moraes illegally demanded that Twitter reveal private information about Twitter users who used hashtags he considered inappropriate. He demanded access to Twitter's internal data, violating the platform's policy. He censored, on his own initiative and without any respect for due process, posts on Twitter by parliamentarians from the Brazilian Congress. And Moraes tried to turn Twitter's content moderation policies into a weapon against supporters of then-president Jair Bolsonaro.

I say this as an independent and non-partisan journalist. I'm not a fan of either Bolsonaro or Trump. My political views are very moderate. But I know censorship when I see it.

The Twitter Files also revealed that Google, Facebook, Uber, WhatsApp and Instagram betrayed the people of Brazil. If such evidence is proven, the executives of these companies behaved like cowards: they provided the Brazilian government with personal registration data and telephone numbers without a court order and, therefore, violating the law.
When Twitter refused to provide Brazilian authorities with private user information, including direct messages, the government attempted to sue Twitter's top Brazilian lawyer.

When I lived in Brazil in 1992, I was very left-wing. At the time, Lula and the PT's slogans were “Without fear of being happy”.

In recent days, I have spoken to dozens of Brazilians, including professors, journalists and respected lawyers. Everyone tells me they are shocked by what is happening. They told me that they are afraid to speak their mind and that the Lula government is complicit in creating this climate of fear.

Brazil belongs to the Brazilians. It is not my country. As such, there are limits to what I am capable of doing.

But I can say things that many Brazilians do not feel safe saying: Alexandre de Moraes is a tyrant. And the only way to deal with tyrants is to confront them. It is up to Brazil’s senators to confront the tyrant. And it is up to the people of Brazil to demand that their senators do so.

This SpaceX video is now over 8 years old, but it still makes me feel the same way all these years later. There aren’t many videos more inspiring than this one in my opinion.

Monumental moment for @SpaceX, @elonmusk and humanity.
