the soccer team and coach is entirely rescued now in conclusion, musk spent a bunch of time getting a whole bunch of skilled workers to labor on a completely worthless and actively harmful project to stroke his own ego

im not an accountant, but paying yourself in assets and capital gains instead of a salary probably carries significant tax advantages for the wealthy and is the reason you have absurdities like warren buffet paying less as a % of his income in taxes than his secretary

is it legal to announce you publicly produced X cars if they are defective and unsell-able even if you pretend/hope you will fix these up into a sell-able state later? would this be considered fraud?

a reasonable solution to climate change would be war-time mobilization of the economy to move to other energy sources, investing in public transportation and infrastructure, and massive research into the damage we've already done and how to prepare for the change if your solution is to hope some capitalist messiah sells cheap electric cars then lol

uh no you must have me confused for someone else. I actually think we should be investing heavily into solar technologies and R&D lol. it's just that putting solar panels on residential roofs seems like one of the dumbest self-defeating loving ways to go about this and is mostly about virtue signalling than anything else. way worse than just centralized solar power plants. npr likes to talk ad nauseum about interoperating residential solar with municipal power grids.

bawfuls posted:This isn’t really true with solar PV. one solar panel is just as efficient by itself as it is surrounded by thousands just like it. there are some marginal efficiencies to be gained by grouping a lot of panels together with a large inverter, but it’s a small gain. On the other hand, by putting PV generation right on a rooftop at the point of use, transmission losses are minimized. The other factor to consider with PV is ambient temperature; PV panels get less efficient as their temperature rises. So while the Mojave desert gets marginally more sun a year than a house in Southern California, the panels in the desert are going to generally be hotter than ones on someone’s roof in LA.
