Yeah and god forbid you need to take an ambulance to said hospital, you'll be hosed when you get that bill in the mail! It is prohibitively expensive for all of this poo poo in America and I'm not surprised that Musk has no tether to the real world at all.

lol is musk fucks up the main competitive advantage he has

quote:

According to an email first reported by The Information and then Electrek, the automaker’s senior director of EV charging Rebecca Tinucci is leaving the company on Tuesday, alongside most of the 500-person team she oversaw. Tesla’s head of the new vehicles program, Daniel Ho, is also out along with his team. These cuts come in addition to the recent 10 percent workforce reduction — and Musk’s email leaves room for more.

Tinucci was notably responsible for the rollout of Tesla’s Supercharger network during her six years at the company, including efforts to get other companies to adopt the North American Charging Standard (NACS) developed by Tesla. In his email, Musk says Tesla will still build new Superchargers and complete those already under construction.

Others impacted by the new layoffs include Daniel Ho, a ten-year Tesla veteran who served as director of vehicle programs and new product initiatives, and as program manager for the Model S, 3, and Y vehicles. Most of the public policy team led by former head of policy and business development Rohan Patel (who left the company during the previous wave of layoffs) are also being let go.

He laid off the supercharger team despite it being Tesla's biggest actual asset, the new vehicle team despite not having any new products in the line, and the public policy team who would assumedly be the ones working with governments on making robotaxis actually legal.

also yeah rockets with just land and take off in city streets like taxis. also again what are these desk jocky computer touchers going to do on Mars?

So yesterday I had a stressful day at work. Nothing awful, but just not great.

On my way home from work I agreed with my wife that I would swing around by the day care to pick up our daughter.

When I got there, seeing my 3 year old daughter point me out to the other kids shout "THAT'S MY DADDY!" Before running over, giving me a hug and asking me to chase her around the grass embankment outside the Day Care. Then we went home and had ice pops.

And I can say without any cynicism it was a lovely moment that made my day.
Truly wonderful.

And I can also equally confidentially say that Elon Musk will never know this type of relationship with any of his children.

Having a baby in a hospital is a lifestyle choice, my wife had her children in our living room and they feed and clothe themselves by foraging in the woods behind our house.

What if we just made a child drop off point in every city you drop a kid off before work they have food clothes whatever in a big pile. You pick up a kid after work doesn't have to be the same kid just one roughly the same age.
