I would normally lol at this, but yeah taking the team out to go whale watching is a solid "we're flush with cash" move if I ever saw one

You can whale watch from the shore, if you do that it's not exactly an expensive trip. Was this "we chartered a boat for our regular employees" flush with cash, or was it "a gaggle of IT nerds clustered nervously at a picnic bench near the beach parking lot looking through binoculars hoping to spot a whale 2 miles out"?

tsla has previously been accused of all manner of shenanigans like "selling" cars that aren't actually sold yet on the basis of some presale agreement, putting cars on rented parking lots and calling that dealership inventory, counting cars as built that aren't actually built yet, etc.
but
that's a bit different from somehow making a bunch of costs disappear from the books. Like if they miscategorize opex then it has to show up in some other expense category and I would like to see some proposal for where it went.

This seems like such an obvious opportunity for EU to partner with N African countries to build power lines and solar. That power generation could be world changing.

They are and do, but there are huge hurdles.
Sabine is a physicist and very smart, her channel on science without the gobbldegook is must-watch, and this video has some explanation (along with covering many of the other problems with generation, transmission, and storage):

Advanced topics:
forex
bonds, as in actual bonds rather than bond funds, unless you're covering this in fixed income?
derivatives other than options and futures (e.g. forwards and swaps)? I don't know that this thread has ever talked about these before though
maybe a brief mention of crypto and why we don't talk about it here
