How schedules are crazy, but the results are in the right direction. Current FSD does seem safer than humans. Reusable rockets are now a thing.

But hundred of miles of tunnels, and driverless cars, and Mars base… not yet. Probably not ever for Mars.

For deeply narcissistic people like Elon, and Trump is in the same category, words are neither true or false, they are only a means to an end. They say words to get people to do things they want. Words that do this well are good and true and words that don't are fake news.

"Richest man in the world is either wrong or lies a lot" remains a valid topic of reporting even if it has been true for a while.

Reporting on habitual liars is "having it out" for someone? He lies, very frequently, it's public record. Those are facts, facts potentially worth reporting on. If one does not like the facts, that's a feeling. If one still supports the habitual liar for reasons, that’s a choice. Their hope is better spent on better people, but it’s their hope to spend and feelings to have.

CEO of a public company lies about material information. Everyone knows he's lying, even his own investors and fans. But a journalist that tells the truth "has it out" for the CEO?

I thought that site used to be ok but then it became over-the-top negative towards tesla.

examples:

- Tesla Semi finally enters volume production, 7 years behind schedule

- Tesla ‘FSD’ sped in 55% of Brussels 30 km/h zones ahead of EU vote

- Tesla Full Self-Driving bug falsely flags dirty cameras, demands service

- Tesla’s active robotaxi fleet in Austin crashes back to 8 vehicles after Cybercab pump

- Tesla’s record month: 4 fatal Autopilot and Full Self-Driving crashes

I'm sort of reminded of Steve Job's retort:

"By the way, what have you done that's so great? Do you create anything, or just criticize others work and belittle their motivations?"

Nowadays I tend to read this site instead:

Either you didn't understand my comment or I'm not understanding yours, but no, there was nothing in my comment meant as a diss.

That's way less nuts. They've proven Starship can get to orbit so it's already viable for payloads. And it has a much larger payload capacity than Falcon 9. They've also recovered a booster. So realistically they can use it in disposable mode now, reusable booster in ~1 year (at which point it is better than Falcon 9) and maybe fully reusable in 5 years.

Compared to humanoid robots where we might be 10-30 years away from having something that works well.
