The letter is usually the tip of the Tesla bad news iceberg. The 10-Q won't be released for several days and will almost certainly do more damage because it adds more detail (both intentional and unintentional).

To be honest, the real protests should begin as key organizers magically "disappear" over the next few months. I can only imagine the amount of intelligence Beijing has collected over these last few days and what sort of operatio

Yes, the desired outcome by the governments seems to be: > You rob a bank and make off with $10 MM in bank notes > They strike those bank notes' serials from a central database and you are now holding a duffel bag of paper. Fiat

I like leaving a device playing a number station[1] in front of devices I know can be accessed by government actors. Then I'll say random gibberish when I'm around so that the audio recording does not perfectly match the Youtube

This. It's quite clear that the fertility rates we've seen historically will not hold into the future. We are on a timer to figure out why we're structuring society in a way that so many people find repulsive enough to not

I disagree. It's important that we have different terms for Social Justice Warriors and Social Justice Activists. The first is one who takes social justice to a ludicrous extreme and protests out of convenience (e.g. micro-aggressions

Exactly, Facebook and a few others got in trouble because advertisers could set geographic criteria which translated quite neatly to race demographics. The fact is that different ethnic groups don't seem to mix organically unless they
