Anything exciting or surprising happen on Tesla's quarterly earnings?

I’m not an economy by any means, but they made a lot of money by selling cars at big discounts. So volume up but profit per car way down. Is that sustainable? Probably not. But it makes him look like a genius in the short term.

But seriously, imagine studying this poo poo through school for years, working in the field, and building yourself up to working at a big old company. Then some doofus buys it, fires all the friends you worked with and/or they quit, makes you build stuff with no notice and no time for even basic testing like will this make the app cease to work, and then finally reduces you to looking at Google analytics on how popular he is(n't).

I'd be so depressed I might actually be happy to get fired.

I’ve only ever know stupid as gently caress leadership so this would be a sad intro to the real world.

If he genuinely didn't know (50-50 odds), I'm guessing it got passed down from on high to solve the crying manbaby's engagement issues and a few levels down an engineer just hardcoded Elon as his own usertype and committed it quietly into the build. Problem solved, who the gently caress's ever gonna see their source code? Only an idiot would show it to the public, or even anywhere Elon might see it.

Ah yes, the classic “I’m just a genius billionaire but there’s no way I could have seen this!” defense.

Why do still people tie themselves into knots defending Elon's stupid positions? Loyalty means nothing, relatively soon Elon will kick her to the curb like all the rest of Twitter's employees.

I have no time for Cuban either but he seems to be saying sensible, normal stuff - which just doesn’t mesh with Musks increasingly right wing world view. I definitely want Musk to continue to defame him, hopefully in a legally provable way that can tie them both up in court for a long time. Bonus points if the court case leads to a bunch of embarrassing disclosure.

Pretty sure this would end in Musk buying Cuban for 44 billion before discovery can actually become public
