Does Tesla not realize that only a dozen or so people actually have 14.3?

Artemis II launch: ~10.4M concurrent livestream viewers + 18.1M on U.S. TV. Cost? $4.1 billion of taxpayers' dollars.Biggest SpaceX Crew Dragon event (Demo-2, 2020): ~10.3M concurrent. Routine Dragon ISS returns? Just hundreds of thousands of views.This isn't even a SpaceX moon landing — it's a NASA lunar flyby. Humanity rallies behind real achievements, not just the price tag. Numbers don't lie.
English
Not a SINGLE SpaceX mission has ever garnered the kind of press & goodwill of Artemis II. And that's for good reason: humanity can never truly rally behind a corporation.
NASA is for the people and by the people. SpaceX is for the shareholders.

@Founder_Mode_ This is the kind of leadership we haven't seen in the USA in a long time. This is how 'Made in USA' actually comes back.

This reminds me of another Elon's story:
At 1am on a Sunday, Elon called an all-hands meeting at the SpaceX factory in Boca Chica.
One question: why isn't this factory running 24/7?
His engineers said they needed more people to run shifts.
48 hours later, SpaceX had hired 252 workers and doubled the factory workforce.
Most companies and CEOs would have scheduled a planning meeting to discuss the staffing gap and take months to hire those people.
But Elon just did that within 2 days.

.@elonmusk hired a machinist, negotiated his salary, and had him start — all in one conversation. On a Saturday at 6 PM. Most companies take two weeks to do what he does in an hour!

4月10日，一名博主批评国内媒体：“完全没有职业操守、毫无底线、毫无原则，恬不知耻”
博主称，阿尔忒弥斯2号升空，人类突破了太空探索的极限他们不报道；
飞跃了40.68万公里，打破了阿波罗13号56年的人类最远飞行记录他不报道；
4位伟大的宇航员不报道；
星链他不报道。
他报道人家“厕所坏了”；他报道“阿波罗登月的阴谋论”；他报道“伊朗组成人链”。
李老师不是你老师@whyyoutouzhele
4月3日，国内报道，“天龙三号运载火箭升空后火箭飞行异常，飞行试验任务失利” 官媒仅用“失利”二字便草草带过。 而美国载人绕月飞船的马桶坏了，媒体足足用了近2分钟的时间来调侃。 网友评论：“天龙三号虽败，但是马桶没坏” “天龙三号基本爆炸”

@TristanSnell Too soon, NASA only the first, fully paid by taxpayers.

Elon Musk didn’t go to the moon.
Jeff Bezos didn’t go to the moon.
NASA went to the moon.

Pretty much spot on. China’s AI progress is driven by massive government investment, extremely hardworking teams, and very smart engineers. The biggest bottlenecks are the closed internet, the Great Firewall, heavy government restrictions, and a lack of long-term patience. That combination pushes many teams to copy open-source code and scrape training data from models like OpenAI, Claude, and Gemini (which is why almost everyone here is using Claude via VPN, as you noted). They’re genuinely outstanding in specific domains like surveillance/monitoring systems, but I don’t see their generic foundation models ever fully competing with the best American ones.
English
Observations about Chinese AI work culture:
1. Many arrive at work late (11 am) and work until late at night (11 pm).
2. Due to the schedule above, many employees are young. Hard for parents to sustain the same schedule.
3. Everyone at these companies is using the best US AI tools like Claude Code via VPN. VPN is very common even for folks not working in tech.
4. Younger generation doesn’t really drink, smoke, or party much. Many just work all the time and order food and boba delivery to office.
5. Government is very supportive of AI startups including cities competing for the best AI founders to start companies locally. Beijing seems to be main AI hub.
6. Youth employment is still bad so gov is also encouraging OPC (one person companies) via subsidies and incentives.
Would love to hear other people’s perspectives on the above.

More observations from Shanghai: 1. A full-time, live-in nanny costs only $1,500/month and a personal chef costs $7/hour. There's alot of support for professional working couples here. 2. Didi (Chinese Uber) rides are $3-5 for most trips and you can order delivery for anything for a few bucks. Things are super convenient. 3. Speaking of cars, every Didi I've been in has been a Chinese EV. Feels like China has adopted EVs much faster than the US. Tesla has <5% market share here. 4. The best food is inside the high-end malls, which are everywhere. Service is outstanding at most places and you don't have to tip. 5. Now the tradeoffs - there are ALOT of people. Traffic is everywhere and motorbikes have no qualms about riding on the sidewalks. Have to be on the lookout for my kids. 6. I haven't seen a single blue sky day since I've been here. The air does feel a bit cleaner now thanks to the EVs. Overall, if you make anywhere close to US tech salary here you can live very well.

Completely agree — this is great! The switch from FSD back to manual has actually become dangerous for me lately. After driving with FSD for a while, my reactions get slow and “stupid”: I forget whether I need to go forward or reverse, I scramble to check mirrors, and everything feels rushed. Almost had an accident the other day. I truly believe FSD is already better than most humans. It should be the first choice in every Tesla.
English
FSD 14.3 is no longer telling you to take over. It's suggesting it. "Take-over recommended." That hints at Level 3 autonomy to me. @DavidMoss 👀
What do you guys think?
Spencer@scotsrule08
FSD 14.3 tried to save us. "Take over recommended." Did we listen? No. Did we get stuck in a mud field? Yes. Most epic FSD test we've ever done @DavidMoss 😄

Sharing my 14.2 experience: it was snowing at -5°C. I put it in Sloth mode but it was still doing 111 km/h. It felt way too fast for snowy roads, especially without snow tires, so I had to take over.
Common sense kicked in 😄
This is exactly why v14.3 is really good for safety — forcing Chill/Sloth in bad weather makes a big difference!
English
FSD V14.3 locks you into chill when it rains 🌧️
I absolutely love this! In V14.2 sometimes the car just drives a little too fast in the rain imo. This is a welcomed change.
Some People may hate this as it may be “too slow” for some people, but it will be inherently safer.
Plus they can always adjust this in future updates if it’s going too slow and it’s sprinkling for example!
Dirty Tesla@DirtyTesLa
During rain FSD 14.3 locks you into chill or sloth. Standard, hurry, and mad Max are not available.

Japan is the only major economy where a house loses 50% of its value in 10 years and hits zero in 22. By government statute.
The reason 9 million homes sit empty has nothing to do with "overlooked opportunity." Japan's tax code charges 6x more property tax on vacant land than land with a structure on it. Owners keep rotting houses standing because demolishing them triggers a tax penalty. The akiya crisis is a tax distortion, not a buyer's market.
The renovation math is where most foreigners get wrecked. A $15,000 house in Kyushu needs $30,000-$80,000 in renovation. Japanese banks won't give you a mortgage without permanent residency or years of employment history in Japan. You're paying cash for a structure the Japanese government officially considers worthless.
Then the resale trap. If a house was hard to sell in the first place, selling it again later is equally difficult. Rural Japanese land doesn't appreciate. The population in these areas is declining so fast that some villages will literally cease to exist within 20 years. You're buying into a market where your only potential buyers are other foreigners who saw the same viral tweet.
One guy who actually made it work, a Swedish model turned renovator, spent $110K total on purchase plus renovation for a single property. It brings in $11K/month in short-term rental revenue now. But he learned Japanese, moved there full-time, built community relationships for years, and got a minpaku license that caps rentals at 180 days per year in most areas.
The Italy comparison tells the real story. Those €1 homes came with mandatory renovation commitments of €15,000+ within three years or the town claws back the property. Japan's version is gentler but the underlying dynamic is identical: governments paying people to repopulate areas that economics has already abandoned.
The opportunity is real for a very specific person. Someone who wants to live in rural Japan, speaks or is learning Japanese, has cash, and treats the purchase as a lifestyle decision with a negative expected financial return. For everyone else reading this as a real estate arbitrage, the 9 million empty houses are empty for a reason.
Alessandro Palombo@thealepalombo
Japan has 9 million abandoned houses. By 2038, it's projected to be 1 in 3. Many of these sell for near-zero prices. The government covers 30–75% of renovation costs. Japan also places no restrictions on foreign property ownership, identical rights to citizens. Only a very specific profile would consider this. But there’s a lot of similarity to Italy's €1 home schemes, which were dismissed as gimmicks and are now attracting serious buyers to villages across Sicily and Sardinia. Japan's abandoned house market is a real entry point for people willing to look past the obvious. In Kyushu, you can also find move-in ready houses for $15,000–20,000 in towns with hot springs, fresh seafood, and Shinkansen access. I will be exploring later this year personally, but quality of life in Japan looks to be incredibly high. Is this one of the most overlooked property plays in Asia right now?
