this whole OTA braking distance fix sounds really odd to me. like, right from the get go, wouldn't tesla just say "okay, we know that X is a good braking distance for a car like this, so we'll just make it that". why is it remotely adjustable in the first place?

idk but it had a worse braking distance than an f150 in the tests lol

Jesus Christ Im going to have to think through that for a couple minutes. Some nonsense speculative stuff.

So, the lender is like in on it too? Wtf is the point of me buying/selling - why doesn't the lender just buy it directly

E: wait! It's imaginary, so like why does Tesla even care. It's not like they are ever buying real Tesla shares

because the entire market is imaginary so all kinds of imaginary bullshit affect it.

Remember the parade of CFOs that rotated through Tesla? We assumed that it was because their financials were dogshit, but in light of the solar city lawsuit, I wonder if its because Elon was trying to get them to lie about that acquisition.

why not both

it’s just like any other car company’s assistance features, you’re always the driver, and never depend on the features

other cars use things like radar to determine distance and "the existence of a solid object ahead of them", not lovely webcams and garbage code.

8 billion user minutes and 7 billion of them are bots

like if you were an advertiser wouldn't you just go on twitter and have a look at what's going on? And go 'hmmm this is bad' rather than taking the word of that clown

the past 20 years of business has been just screaming "METRICS" so nobody is allowed to use common sense anymore, you must have NUMBERS to show why what you're doing is objectively the correct choice, that these METRICS show you're gonna make 20% growth YOY or it's not worth pursuing

aren't depositions usually time limited as well? does the sniping between opposing lawyers count against the time limit?

there is not supposed to BE sniping between lawyers like that, the deposition goes into it for texas but he's allowed certain categories of objections, the client still answers (or doesn't if advised not to i guess? i assume at least the 5th amendment still applies so they can't be forced to answer certain things?) and then they figure it out in a hearing with the judge, basically saying "I object to this, gonna try to get it thrown out, but answer so we're not wasting everyone's time"

plaintiff's attorney pointed out in that deposition that if they're just stalling he'll go and get more time from the judge

also musk's lawyer hosed up repeatedly in there, wasn't licensed to practice in that state and didn't bring someone who was, and topped it off by jumping the gun and asking that it be sealed while still on the record, so it got all typed us for us to see him go "we need this to be private" "why? there's no order for that" "yeah that's why i'm asking" and the plaintiff's lawyer got to go on record with "there's literally no reason for this to be secret, there's no legal basis, you're just asking? lol gl"

so yeah, elon might want to stock to stay over a certain amount if this is the arrangement he has (which we don't know), but the second step in the conspiracy theory here, "therefore elon is the one desperately shoveling the money that he borrowed back into buying the stock (instead of repaying the loan?)" doesn't make any kind of sense (and also isn't true)

he might not be the only one with a loan at that number
he might not be shoveling his own money if he has some network of other rich idiot friends he can get high with and convince to do the poo poo
it might not be possible to pay back the loan in full if it's some huge chunk of billions of dollars for twitter or whatever
he might have enough stock outside of the loan that it still benefits him more to attempt to keep it above 150 for reasons

there's probably more. the financial system is intentionally a loving tangle of made up bullshit and indirection, and when you get rich enough...

also, he's a loving idiot, spends large swaths of time on various drugs, believes current llms are as smart as humans, thinks he can just hold another vote to get his pay package, and showed up to court in texas with an attorney not licensed or admitted in texas, DESPITE HAVING A TEXAS LAW FIRM RETAINED FOR THE CASE, if you wanna apply common sense you might be disappointed
