$TSLA bad data breach:
-3K Autopilot complaints
-Internal code #'s to classify them
-Rules to leave no paper trail
-Likely many un-reported issues
Below is a short report on what blew me away. RT if you like it, as it'll be de-boosted by Musk

A threat by a thug against a woman journalist broadcast to his 140 million devotees. When he tweeted it, there were 53K views within 11 min. Now, there are one million views. Don't think it's a threat? Google "swatting."
Buffett suggests we need to model the "unity of purpose" and "war machine" of WW2 to re-engineer the energy system and lack of long-distance transmission lines in the U.S. to accelerate the transition to renwable energy!
Still not a fan of wartime analogies. 🤬 All wars need/create human enemies, and that’s unskillful. Don’t want to create the “Alberta War Room” in reverse, which I fear would happen. Nation building (“our century’s trans-Canadian railroad”) far better. @maxfawcett@politicalham
Here’s a leading degrowth campaigner and author dismissing Western unionized workers as “exploiters” of the Global South due to their participation in the “long supply chains” & energy production of the “imperial mode of living”.
A left that hates workers isn’t a left at all.
"[trade union workers] are profiteers of women, of queers, or people of color, of black people worldwide" - Andrea Vetter author of "The Future Is Degrowth"
@mattlech & @davidgriscom respond to this nonsense and degrowth's anti-working class rhetoric

1/ not sure what conference Gniewomir attended, but here're my thoughts on his thoughtfulness: 😊
- SIBs & metal extraction: who builds a business model in response to expected scarcity? (Do ALK folks rely on PEM/Ir constraints?)
Li can still stay expensive tho.
4/ Finally, manufacturing capacity. It's terrible for individual companies but it's great for industries.
Overcapacity slaughters weaker players and forces dramatic innovation from survivors. (See Chinese solar PV & many other industries.)
end/ Top innovators get concentrated & bankrupt companies' capex gets sold for pennies on the dollar so it's cheaper for survivors to expand. By now it's probably OK for me to point to this exact case within the FC sector some years back. (verbally, offline 😅)

Zero Emission means nothing when the concept unit claiming to take over Class 8 simply CAN'T stay operational.

@Hyliion ERX solution will help fleets keep net negative emissions with the exceptional TCO.

Some very interesting Images were captured by field biologists following the SpaceX fiasco last week.
Commentary by me is minimal.

Hannah Lutz @hm_lutz led a team of @Automotive_News reporters to do a deep dive on the state of EV charging in the US. The special report has 8 articles and lots of data, some of which I was honored to provide along with some quotes and insights.
