    Elon Compensation Package

    No there isn’t. Just regular FD disclosure — i.e., release to the public rather than selectively to certain parties. But funny to watch people speculate and manufacture nonsense to get outraged about.

    2023 plaid x high speed hard braking stability issue

    Just seeing this now. Bingo Try again. I’ve braked the MX Plaid from 160 a number of times and no problem. Enough times in a row too trigger the (calculated, not measured I believe) brake temp warning light, but not enough to induce actual brake fade. It brakes just fine from high speeds...

    Shareholder Meeting 2024 (presumably in May in Austin, Texas): how to attend?

    Did you have a guest? Did they have to sign an NDA and waiver too? Or what confirmation of the guest being cleared did anyone get?

    Tesla Annual Shareholder Meeting

    got a confirmation of the RSVP with a prompt to sign an NDA and some other visiting the facilities waiver document. Did that with a QR code ticket in response. Didn’t get it yet for a shareholder guest though so some uncertainty still lingers.

    Russia/Ukraine conflict

    Every former communist country was given a strong dose of "neo liberal" economic policies. Those countries that empraces it the most, Poland, the Baltics(even with their former Soviet status and strongest Russian ties) flourished and prospered to this day. Russia and many of the stans and...

    Israel/Hamas conflict

    Yes this is a problem with some people. The justified confidence they display when discoursing on topics within their domain of expertise continues to be displayed even when that confidence is unjustified when speculating or guessing or misremembering on topics well outside their area of...

    Israel/Hamas conflict

    From the Bret Stephens article “Terms like “precision weapons” can foster the notion that it’s possible for modern militaries to hit only intended targets. But that’s a fantasy, especially against enemies like Hamas, whose method is to fight and hide among the innocent so that it may be...

    Israel/Hamas conflict

    You claim that “Israel shouldn’t suppress people” alluding, without any detail, the Israel was suppressing/oppressing Muslims or Palestinians in some way and that justified the Palestinian rape jihad on October 7. I gave detailed facts that Israel does not suppress/oppress Muslims and...

    Israel/Hamas conflict

    Female muslims, gay muslims, and former Muslims thrive and prosper in Israel, but are “suppressed” (beheaded, treated as property, and thrown from rooftops) in Gaza and West Bank by jihadist theocratic barbarians. Israel is an island of democracy, pluralism, tolerance, and basic moral decency...

    Israel/Hamas conflict

    Facts: zooming in: further zooming in: “It should be noted that Hamas has been operating in this area since October 7,” Hagari says, showing another image showing Hamas rocket launchers 43 meters from the targeted site. “Hamas fired rockets from these launchers at Israel during the...

    Israel/Hamas conflict

    War is messy. People who don’t like the messiness of wars shouldn’t start them. Meanwhile Israel tries to minimize civilian casualty while still trying to be effective against Hamas who tries to maximize civilian causalities by hiding their weapons, their attack positions, and themselves, among...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Cravath has been their counsel on this all along. There is no recent turning to them. Independence is often never crystal clear, which is why the NASDAQ rules defer to the Board to make their own determinations, but the board’s application of independence guidelines from NASDAQ, SEC and...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    The Cravath law firm legal briefing for the appeal will have plenty of argument on this point, and it is likely to be successful. Until then, this judge was way out of line in that: 1. she applied law that applies to company transforming change-of-control transactions, not mere compensation...

    Russia/Ukraine conflict

    That makes sense — and notice that the cost to Russia of the drone shot down is irrelevant to the part that makes sense. It’s all about the allocation of limited resources to get the best return on the investment of those resources.

    Russia/Ukraine conflict

    The cost of an adversary’s drone or other weapon is irrelevant. What matters is the damage any particular drone/weapon can do. If a cheap weapon is on track to cause $1 million worth of damage/loss, while an expensive weapon will cause only $1,000 of damage, take down the cheap weapon. What you...

    Mainstream Christians and Jews will openly criticize and police their extremist versions, which remain relatively rare and comparatively harmless. Mainstream Muslims refuse to police their extremist versions, which are active and very harmful. Few Muslims or former Muslims will speak out...

    That is not inconsistent with applicable international law. Summarized below: 1. Are armed forces permitted to attack civilians under international law? Armed forces must distinguish between civilians and combatants. Attacks targeting civilians are prohibited. However, attacks targeting enemy...

    Make, or cite to, one. No. No. That isn’t remotely how the principal of proportionality works. The law is somewhat, but not hugely, complex. Read up on the details of the law. Other links I have posted in this thread have the details. What’s the point? On a happier note, here is a good...

    Israel/Hamas conflict

    Based on what exactly and precisely? Either based on international law or compared to similar violations by Hamas? Also, always always keep in mind, all Hamas has to do it release the kidnapped innocents, and not use civilians as shields. OR Gazans could themselves implement a leadership...

    Plaid 19 vs 21

    I have the old pads in both a plaid s and a plaid x and have stopped both from the very highest speeds multiple times and there was no problem. I never even triggered the brake warning light on the S after multiple stops and I did trigger the warning light on the Model x but in both cases never...

    Israel/Hamas conflict

    No mention of returning hostages or bringing justice to the rape jihadists that are still at large, and demand “if an independent Palestinian state is established along pre-1967 borders.” And they again deny that they targeted any civilians on October 7. Delusional barbaric jihadists are...

    Israel/Hamas conflict

    Yes and shame on the Germans for not replacing Hitler, one way or another. They paid a steep price. And shame on the Gazans for supporting and participating in the Hamas led rape jihad. They will pay a similar price. If they were a decent people they would replace Hamas and educate their...

    Israel/Hamas conflict

    More likely it just doesn’t fit into their world view of dividing up the world into oppressor / colonizer and oppressed / natives.

    The better grenade pin analogy does have to get 80 year old history laughably wrong. The better grenade analogy is: When the rape jihadist violated the existing peacetime and killed and burned the civilian inhabitants on October 7, 2023 in the Music festivals and farms, that's the moment the...

    Reporting on Tesla by Russ Mitchell (LA Times)

    It’s location specific. And the hardware changes all the time. keep trying. I recall, around late 2022, I was in the garage and FWDs wouldn’t open all the way. There was some combination of a message on the screen, with an option to change something, that fixed it. It gave me that option in low...
