maybe the tesla investors they are trying not to scare are so dumb they don't know how to look on twitter to see how much they are being duped

The way I think about a human mind is that it's essentially a parking lot with low parking bumps around it, methodologically and ideologically speaking. A sufficient force might push awareness over this (fairly low) barrier but ordinary news isn't going to.

That is to say, Tesla investors are looking for evidence of their beliefs (and the 5000 car thing is just that) not a reason to doubt these beliefs.

they already don't follow GAAP (for instance, they added the 500 million dollars they got in $1000 fully-refundable deposits on the model 3 to their revenue figures) so why start now

asset forfeiture in a perfect world means ross loses everything he owns when he goes to prison after being convicted of being a major drug kingpin.

in practice it means - hey i found a "pot stem" in your car so i'm confiscating all of your money and possibly your car too even without conviction. police in some places are horrible about the way they implement it and really just use it to rob poor people/minorities.

Hope you weren't planning on actually paying for a defense attorney because your bank account is mine now, bithc!

man twitter is so dumb this isn't even news. big shock - a large company has some issues with development and some of the issues were lol bad but I guarantee you the technical issues i posted are long gone now

bringing up hardware is always messy and with tight deadlines, poo poo happens, so to be real for a moment: in my opinion tesla is shipping good (model s/x) products, they are road safe and tested, there are growing pains, quality pains and such but nothing they can't fix. model 3 is another story, I hope they fix it

honestly i started out really liking working there and I feel like my 8 years there had an impact and tesla to this day is still full of good folks doing the right thing. i know for a fact all the crap i worked on is probably gone by now as it should be - they are evolving. you'll notice they haven't had further incidents like the thing I posed earlier with the reboot loop, so at the very least rca's are paid attention.

most of tesla's problems are self-imposed management style issues, they'll be forced to fix them at some point, one way or another, but that's up to the board
