More literally. Not bullish, rather expecting if he really meant it then he would have a higher percentage.....think dumb and dumber....So how did the other family members read it?

What happened to freedom of speech??Here is how "The Register" handles the NLRB ruling.
Tesla broke US labor law with anti-union efforts – watchdog
And Elon Musk must delete 2018 tweet threatening loss of benefits for unionizingwww.theregister.com
I presume this "might" get another rehashing as part of ESG evaluation on the corp level but not very familiar with how ESG works exactly.
Respect! I forgot that DeepMind was a, one must say, very fortuitous acquisition, not a Google native invention. Go Britons!Sorry to be picky, but actually mostly BRITISH programmers . I know this because demis used to be my boss and dave silver my line manager when I worked at elixir
How do you recoup the “cost” and inconvenience to a Tesla owner waiting for a stall to the SC while the slow charging non-Tesla EVs fill the spots? Every Tesla owner paid for the SC network in the price of their cars and possibly purchased their Tesla knowing they had access to the best charging (and exclusive) network available.Regarding supercharger access Tesla would be negotiating from a point of strength.
In addition to entering a contract with a given car maker, they can also require that a specific EV-owner that wants to use the Supercharger Network for their car create a Tesla-account, to enable the payment - giving them an opportunity to check out Tesla's other products...
Naturally, a non-Tesla, slowly-charging EV cannot reduce the Supercharger throughput. So the payment of the non-Tesla EV would need to be the greater of the price of the electricity they actually charged and the price of the electricity a Tesla could have charged in the same amount of time at the stall.
Looking at Tesla's recent conditions for buyers who opt to pay with Bitcoin, I am fully confident that Tesla will know to get the best out the Supercharger Network.
Thoughts? “Price of Tesla doubling?“ I Can’t trust anything he says now...Woah. Listen to this (should play at relevant part).
Chamath basically saying major nickel resource has been flooded and will delay supply by a year and battery costs are gonna jump.
Thoughts?
If MM have this much power and can get away with this much BS, just think what our policy makers are getting away with themselves....Love this post so much, and the preceding sentiments by @Krugerrand. THIS is how you have a weekend OT discussion!
I've been an ultra-annoying poster the last couple months, even gone so far as to invite my first two(2!) bannings, but I think it's primarily due to ambivalence about all these shenanigans posted above. The GME situation was just the straw that broke my cerebral cortex. Every day I stream Bloomberg for at least a portion of the morning to grab the business news. And every day I see the JPMorgan spot where they claim to help customers "explore the other side of volatility", essentially advertising they trade on somewhat inside information or some such advantage.
Hedge funds could reliably bring in billions until Warren Buffet figured out that the fees ruin any questionable investing advantage they had, so now they make money off inorganic volatility. Adding to that a supremely lax regulatory environment....and you get the Gamestop situation, which is really just an extreme example of everything we've seen with TSLA for years and year.
At the risk of an unprecedented 3rd(1) banning, and with all respect to our wonderful mods(no sarcasm), I would again ask the good people of TMC to dissect the GME situation and continue the conversation with this very much still alive experiment as a backdrop. The power these clowns have is unfathomable in this window of zero regulation, it's like Gordon Gecko if there were no repercussions.
Not sure the interior of that Tesla would ever be the same...Upcoming feature of the Tesla app: Lock doors and use FSD to drive to police station/jail/nearest police car.
Haha, yeah, a "guaranteed rate of return," I love it.**** Buffett. This is ridiculous. Solar/wind + battery storage is the way to go.
Buffett's Plan To Fix Texas Energy Grid Includes 10 New Peaker Plants Owned By Buffett - CleanTechnica
Here's the essence of the plan: Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway would spend more than $8 billion to construct 10 1-megawatt natural gas-powered peaker plants in Texas in exchange for a guaranteed rate of return.cleantechnica.com

In addition to @lklundin's response above, what if Tesla only modifies some of the Tesla chargers to work for the other EVs, and leaves a bunch more at each stop that only work for Tesla cars?How do you recoup the “cost” and inconvenience to a Tesla owner waiting for a stall to the SC while the slow charging non-Tesla EVs fill the spots?

Napkin math/ballpark numbers supports your distrust:Thoughts? “Price of Tesla doubling?“ I Can’t trust anything he says now...
Yeah, that's a terrible idea. Better to just pull the car over and make it unable to move again, and unlock all the doors so the thief can flee without damaging the car any further.Not sure the interior of that Tesla would ever be the same...
Early in the latest Jason Yang video you can see that they've already starting earth works on the new land that Tesla is believed to have purchased across the river and to the south of the existing plant.
Although Buffett IS buddies with Greg Abbott, so it bears watching.This is unlikely to happen because it takes too long to get approval for NG and the cost is too high compared to renewables. He'd probably have to pay the Legislators the first ten years profits to get it through.
No, iron is the alternative. Also as price goes up, other manufacturers will scale down as there's acceptable limits people are willing to pay for a commodity.Thoughts? “Price of Tesla doubling?“ I Can’t trust anything he says now...

After BRK announced that they bought heavily into Chevron, I started divesting myself from BRK and into other funds like ARKK and similar.Haha, yeah, a "guaranteed rate of return," I love it.
So as the price of electricity generation continues to drop due to steadily declining renewable cost curves, Texas rate payers will be fleeced into paying higher and higher electricity costs from Buffett's peaker plants because he is contracting a "guaranteed rate of return" with the state. I really hope Texans aren't bamboozled into this.
Someone's got to tweet Elon about this. Tesla could install the same renewable-based capacity for less AND save rate-payers money.
I've really lost all respect for Berkshire and Buffett now. And all these years I was tricked into thinking he was such a kind, grandfatherly sort of figure. Stupid me.
He was superb when he was younger.I had a seminar with him 45 years ago and he was brilliant.Haha, yeah, a "guaranteed rate of return," I love it.

Warren Buffet is all about cash on cash return.
He is also all about establishing BS moats to crush competition. Just ask Solar City what he did in Nevada.
His thing has always been ID what people are addicted to, wait for the addiction to be mature and pervasive and then profit from it, the good of society be damned (as in, this is not a consideration for his investments).
Would call him more amoral than immoral.
Do not doubt him in Texas. He will probably pull it off.
Personally, I really dislike him and have for a long time. He can move on to other pursuits in life far as I am concerned.
