This is the same process that was done with J2EE and Application Servers, it starts out with a _simple_ standard to have a Java application served with a standard API, and then it grows out of control. You are already seeing it with Itsio a

Right, but they have 11b in revenue. They claim to be operating today with a 27% margin on the model S, if an investor dropped the model 3 and focused on producing just the S an investor would easily pay more then the 20b they have in outst

The best way to teach kids to read is to have their parents read to them, and sit with them individually and work with them on sounding out words. Then you just read with them over and over and over. Every night you read with them, and then
