Amazingly enough this doesn't seem to have affected the stock price, it went down briefly then right back up.

even ignoring the tweet, i have no idea how they get away with presenting absolute fantasy to the shareholders without anyone calling them on it.

this isn't a case of "we had a good week, let's project from there", it's "take our best ever output, and double it" then report that we'll be shipping that many cars despite the fact that almost none of the vehicles we made during that particular run even worked.
it's like you don't even understand exponential growth

exponential growth means i get to multiply any numbers i want by powers of two and the result is the new truth + light

maybe try barely skimming the wikipedia article's intro next time before you spout further BIG OIL journaliesm

He sleeps very little (a self-declared average of 6 hours/night, but I'd be willing to bet he has some pretty late nights and those 6 hours are rarely uninterrupted by a ringing phone and any given crisis)

yeah he's lying and actually gets less sleep because he's working harder, sure thing buddy

cnn posted:

Musk is a loose cannon
Musk is undoubtedly the genius behind the industry-changing electric cars Tesla builds. But he is also the driving force behind the volatility in Tesla's stock and the revolving door of top executive talent at the company.

no, you see his management is such an utter failure that his companies are in a constant state of crisis and so he's constantly running around trying to put out fires (in the paint shop, in the garbage pile, on the road)

quote:

To add to the last point, Elon is the CEO of two companies. Although the CEO role is a position that many entrepreneurs aspire to, Elon views it much differently: he says that the CEO role exists so that there is someone who can deal with all of the problems that literally no one else in the company can solve. That means, as CEO, he is at the base of a funnel for all of the crappiest problems in existence, at not one, but two companies (one of which is publicly traded). I'd say dealing exclusively with massive problems, day in and day out, that some of the world's most brilliant engineers and businesspeople are unable to solve has one sure result: STRESS

I love this $50 way to say Elon is a micro-manager

quote:

Will Dunphey, MBA, Entrepreneur, Author, Tech Enthusiast, Sci-Fi Junkie

this however is an incredibly cost effective way to declare yourself as a total waste of space (in Mississippi none the less lol)

and half the other poo poo listed is either a) problems everyone has b) problems elon has because he's a disorganized idiot

hell with the sleep poo poo, how many people do you think in the factory have had to pull off multiple shifts and probably have to deal with commuting from the central valley -- some of them have probably even just slept in the parking lot

https://www.businessinsider.com.au/tesla-employee-lived-out-of-van-2015-11 I’m trying to find the sadder story about a veteran who sleeps in an oldish Audi at the Tesla / solar city / one of the factories but this came up first...

Roesslein toyed with the idea of a buying a box truck and turning it into a tiny home. Ultimately, the idea of owning such a big truck was too daunting to proceed.

'At the same time as I was developing those thoughts, I met a guy who works at Tesla, who at the time was living in his Subaru Forester,' he says. 'He'd been doing it for a year.'

One night, that same coworker mentioned replacing his Subaru with a Sprinter van. 'That planted the seed in my head,' Roesslein explains. 'It would be big enough so that you can stand up and have everything you need in there -- but it's also not an atrociously large vehicle, and would be fairly manoeuvrable.'
