This appears to be heavily downvoted but hard to argue against seeing how irreligious the second generation has been since the big influx of North African immigration started. Religion has not been very successful in France for a while now

Monkey killing ethics questions aside, it really is typical of Elon to blatantly lie about this when he could have just pointed out there is plenty of other research being done with monkeys.

He can't resist lying. It would be so much easier for him to keep his mouth shut, they're not the only ones killing monkeys for research.

I see a little bit of an accusation in OP that the media made up these stories about him considering charging all users. Elon seems to have some strong gaslighting abilities over some people here is where he claims it is fake: https:/

I'm guessing this Walter Isaacson bio is going to be a puff piece. I think he picked the most critical excerpts to get attention early but then he walked back the Ukraine one and sends cnbc this drivel. My main reason for this predicti

I'm stumped after watching the video on https://www.tesla.com/autopilot . 5+ years ago the driver was only there for legal reasons. Why the regression? Should they update the site or was the intervention not necessary?

I do think they don't use oligarch for all Russian billionaires. For example it isn't used for Tinkov or Durov. In 90s-00s there really were oligarchs, now they use it for the ones that are or were maybe affiliated with government

Tesla's market cap is much larger than those two companies combined. Tesla the company would probably be better off with a serious, responsible CEO. But it will be an ugly ripping the band-aid off moment for the stock, which is valued

Spacemacs defaults to fd, I don't think I ever accidentally left insert mode with that. Happy vscode user these days. If I find myself fiddling with an editor it's a huge red flag to me that I hate what I'm working on.
