I think the rest of the world should learn from this. Instead of pouring capital into meme coins and made-up stores of value, we should invest in electricity generation and storage.

They are going to let the rest of the world hold the crypto bag while they have more electricity generation than anyone to power their industries, which are already taking over the world.

And I think China has figured this out, as evidenced by its new electricity generation surpassing the rest of the world combined and by its ban on cryptocurrency.

If electricity is the backbone of global trade and the metric of productivity, the kWh ultimately becomes the real currency of a truly electrified world.

You can swap attachments easily. There's the included bucket and optional: grapple, auger, snow plow, or forks.

There's also a digging arm to bury bodies:

3- Elon already has full control over Tesla. Can you think of a single instance in the last 20 years of Tesla where Elon didn't get his way? He even got caught with securities fraud by the SEC and was allowed to remain CEO and install a puppet chairperson to replace him on the board.

2- Why is delivering unsupervised self-driving in consumer vehicles as promised and sold for almost a decade not a milestone in the package? Instead, there are more vague milestones like FSD subscription and robotaxis, which are problematic since they both don't require reaching unsupervised levels.

It's hard work though. I just checked today and I wrote 13,463 articles at Electrek over 10 years. That's an average of 3.7 articles per day, including the weekends, no days off.

That's nuts.

This job allows me to focus on what I'm passionate about, enables me to drive some of the most advanced vehicles in the world, and even own a few, like the first Model S in Canada - seen above.

That's not an accurate representation. I've become increasingly negative on Musk in 2019. That's when he called me "anti-Tesla", which I clearly wasnt to be fair. I started turning on sour on Elon, not Tesla yet -just some of his moves at Tesla.

The Roadster wasn't even supposed to come until 2020.

I'm writing factual articles about him. I ain't slashing his tires.

What product? Energy? maybe, it's the only product growing, but it still doesn't justify a $900 billion valuation when EV deliveries are plunging and self-driving has become a liability since it can't deliver level 5 as promised on millions of vehicles.
