for anyone playing the home game, we were pointing out the purely fanciful range numbers five to six years ago too. these have not been masterful cons that required some kind of insider knowledge to catch. this is purely a failure of the american regulatory state to do its loving job and the press for reporting verbatim absolute bullshit without even the lowest effort verification. infernal machines fucked around with this message at 20:52 on Apr 26, 2024 |

the job of regulators and the fourth estate is to rubber stamp and legitimize these acts, because to admit there's a problem would undermine people's confidence in our great innovators and industries

what do you mean? all these claims that any scientist or engineer, or even an idiot forums poster with a wikipedia degree, can see are wrong using common sense and a few minutes of arithmetic....they're all bullshit and lies?? how can that be? elon musk, the world's smartest engineer and inventor, says it's true. it must be

Also re "I've seen his code", lol if you think Elon has coded anything since the slapped-together ASP that let him ride the dot com bubble to riches in the 90s.

Brown had previously worked at Twitter for more than 8 years before leaving in Oct. 2021.

Anyone can get caught in a meeting being called out for some poo poo your making up so that story is a little too relatable to me, but imagine what an enormous loser you have to be to fire the guy explaining how much you suck in a meeting you called to talk about why people aren’t liking your tweets

Inventory is kept on the books at cost (unless market value is lower than cost). A car that costs $30,000 to produce and sells for $40,000 is on the books for $30,000 and remains there even if the retail price of the car goes down to $35,000.
