It’s time to notice Tesla’s Autopilot death toll
Tesla's self-driving "Autopilot" system is a death wish for drivers who don't understand how it works.
TslaQ successfully pivoted to door latch/stuck door Model S death trap.
Thanks. Indeed many news sources are assertively headlining that Autopilot was engaged. Benzinga is the latest. Elon is now denying the involvement of Autopilot on Twitter. Unlike in my day, modern quick-bait "journalists" make assertions without evidence. For shame, especially when investments are involved.

Interesting day - taking advantage of the inflammatory defamatory SP s/t deflating events ahead of an up bump going into Q1 earnings day - had to do something to make me feel better.
Disclaimer: not advice - not an expert at all, in fact happy to get feedback from the more experienced folks here.
Early today around 10 am sold stonk @ 695 average (about 20K) to buy as soon as possible afterwards (2-4 mins) one each of Sept 19 750 and 780 Calls @ 105 and 89.
Why these particulars ones, well they seemed far enough to ride the bumps and get the SP to be at a profitable* level and not so far so that they can appreciate reasonably well, before expiry. As to their particular pricing, I figured the market is efficient.
Well, let's see how this ages.
Dang - it didn't take long - while I was perusing some illustrations, Elon deflates the WSJ using a random informed guy's tweet and the SP jumps $9 in AH, let's see tomorrow's SP action. This whole (r)evolution has to be the best live, real-time show in town.
(*) so what do I consider profitable: would have to be say 2X as much appreciation over equivalent stonks. Did not look up the option greeks as I'm optimistic the SP will move far enough that these wouldn't be that relevant. IF indeed an infinity squeeze happens as the MM's can't stop the SP shooting up past their barriers, of course 3-4X would be great.
OT - Global risks
The only risks I see are something like a new COVID-21 type event, some cataclysmic "nature" event, a global market crash (not likely, we basically have been/ will continue to be living well enough at the surface of this huge ocean of fiat or nominal money stored in digital/ paper money vaults), WW3 aka North Korea digital wars blowing up badly, or some rogue programmer in some room somewhere getting a a flash crash in enough financial markets ..
Update 10 years later: Governments: We'll buy stocks too

Shocked that Tesla doesn't engage with this upstanding individual
Sandy Munro give his thoughts on Tesla autonomy. With 8 times the safety factor, it would be absolutely criminal to stop the progression and normalization of this technology in the market.

Today is the first time I've been inclined to agree that FUD has gone beyond creating confusion or doubt and flat out made factual assertions that either couldn't be fact or had not been verified in any way.
I'm sure there's no point in going after any press outlets, and Elon certainly would never waste the time, but today crossed the line IMO. The clicks are just too enticing.
I'll answer that for Gordo.
Stored in people's cars as only certain metrics of intervention are uploaded to Tesla to see. Like hard brake plus jolt of steering wheel will time stamp that clip while the rest of straight line driving will be deleted in due time. It's not the miles that count, but the number of circumstances that require hard disengagements that count in which billions of miles will provide.
You hear Karpathy say "and then I'll call up the fleet to find x, y, z", meaning the data is stored on the fleet, not on their servers.

A few open questions for anybody that knows these facts:
- Did the Driver airbag deploy?
- Would that airbag deploy if no one was in the seat?
- Was the Driver seatbelt fastened into driving position?
- Was the registered owner among those found in the car?
- Did the data recorder survive the subsequent pyroevent?

I don't buy/sell options, but I like to check these windows daily/weekly. Hopefully someone with more experience can weigh in, but the quantity of contracts traded today jumped out at me.
