@Davalette Empezando por los paneles solares, baterias y vehículos eléctricos para desconectarse lo más posible del petróleo

Los impactos en RD de la guerra en Irán ya son una realidad. El gobierno no puede, ni debe, sostener precios de combustibles. Esta es un crisis de fuerza mayor y el gobierno debe presentarse unido frente a una amenaza externa. Presentar a la población un plan concreto e integral.

@pousuazo Pero hay solucion, Cuba ya gasta $0 en petróleo

Tres días de recuperación. Un titular sobre la escalada de la crisis. Listo. El crudo se sitúa en 119 dólares. Israel atacó la infraestructura energética iraní. Irán tomó represalias contra activos del Golfo. Todas las posiciones basadas en la esperanza de un alto el fuego esta semana resultaron erróneas. Los futuros del Nifty ya han caído 650 puntos. La apertura de mañana ya está decidida. Las manifestaciones geopolíticas no se desvanecen, se rompen.

@OGmusical @FredLambert @elonmusk Are you too young to remember Microsoft release dates fiasco... Bill Gates promised but never delivered

@ATLSwiss @FredLambert @elonmusk They're his timelines! He's the one who comes up with them. And he just lies cause it pumps the stock.

We’ve seen this playbook before. Musk announces an impossibly ambitious manufacturing timeline, the stock gets a boost from the excitement, and then reality sets in over the following years as deadlines slip and targets get revised downward. The 4680 battery cell is the most direct precedent. Six years after Battery Day, Tesla still hasn’t delivered on most of its original promises, and battery cell manufacturing, while difficult, is child’s play compared to leading-edge semiconductor fabrication. The 100 GWh by 2022 target quietly became roughly 20 GWh by 2025. The 56% cost reduction hasn’t materialized at scale. The $25,000 vehicle that was supposed to be enabled by cheap cells still doesn’t exist. Now Musk is proposing something far more complex, in a field where Tesla has no manufacturing experience, with a team he largely gutted over the past two years, while making comments about smoking cigars in the fab that suggest he doesn’t take the technical challenges seriously. Jensen Huang, who knows more about the semiconductor supply chain than almost anyone alive, is telling him it’s “virtually impossible”, and Huang has every incentive to want more chip production capacity in the world. Tesla designing its own chips was a smart strategic move that paid off with capable Autopilot hardware. But designing chips and manufacturing them are entirely different things. We’d love to be proven wrong, but the evidence strongly suggests that Terafab will follow the same pattern as 4680: bold promises, years of delays, and results that fall well short of what was originally claimed.

@WR4NYGov South of France

If you could spend one month in any place on Earth, to see if you might want to move there, what’s first on your list?

@donmarcelino0 @pousuazo Me gas hecho reir a carcajadas! Todo el mundo le tiene miedo porque Trump le importa un bledo y hace lo que le de la gana. Todos los otros tienen que responder a sus patrocinadores

Pero si lo digo yo...me dicen zurdo...viejo decrepito...comunista...lean ahi idiotas...Trump no solo pierde la guerra ...nadie lo respeta...🤔 Paul Krugman, Nobel de Economía: "Todos los aliados de EEUU ya consideran a China un socio más fiable que Trump" huffingtonpost.es/global/paul-kr…

@RRosarioMarquez Follow the money, ese cabron le llegó el gusano woke al cerebro.... y no ve fiera de esa ideologia que lo infectó. Iran libre, Cuba libre, Venezuela libre, el mundo sin terroristas. A eso es que vamos! La proxima guerra es poner a todos los woke en Haití

Este funcionario estadounidense, renuncia con un argumento de conciencia. EEUU se involucró en una guerra, solo para complacer a Israel, porque Irán no representaba un peligro para EEUU. Israel por los intereses electorales de Netanyahu y su temor de ser juzgado cuando salga arrastró al mundo a la guerra.

@Ocoafeliz @EdJorgePrats @AndyDauhajre @AristyEscuder Esos son los mitos de gente que cree en lo que le dicen.... preguntale a @carloscomic si lo que duces es verdad o bulto

@ATLSwiss @EdJorgePrats @AndyDauhajre @AristyEscuder En República Dominicana no es tan simple prohibir los vehículos de gasolina o diésel. Una medida así chocaría con varias realidades: el alto costo de los autos eléctricos, la falta de infraestructura de carga y el hecho de que gran parte del parque vehicular es usado e importado.

Lo que significa un eventual apocalipsis por la guerra en Irán y lo que debemos hacer. Lean a @AndyDauhajre y @AristyEscuder. ¡Hay que estar preparados y actuar ya!

@richzou Loved, which AI assisted you? Too much reinforcing the initial idea. Congrats on getting into xAI

@alockwardm y el costo a RD sera mas alto si no empiezan a darse cuenta de que la única salida es salir de la dependencia del petróleo. Hasta Etiopía se dio cuenta y prohibió la entrada de carros que usan gasolina….

Esta foto fue en Tel Aviv haces unos años; como cristiano soy afecto a Israel pero esta guerra no es justa y daña a todo el mundo. Soy contrario al régimen teocrático de Iran, pero la justicia no tiene religión … y el costo para el mundo incluida RD es muy alto

@garyblack00 @scorfman @Tesla @robotaxi all his projects have been delivered, not on time, but in due time

@garyblack00 @scorfman @Tesla @robotaxi most people are not early adopters, most can’t handle change, you want them to jump to the Tesla wagon? only when they see their neighbors making money on their robotaxi fleets they may consider jumping into the bandwagon…. until then, can’t fix stupid

$TSLA sales right now should be surging with brent crude above $100/bbl and no sign of the Middle East war ending anytime soon. Unfortunately, there is no advertising from TSLA educating potential consumers on the benefits of EVs — ease of charging, superior performance, lower maintenance costs, benefits of FSD/autonomy, good for the environment, etc. Tesla bulls keep talking up the FSD technology but absent the devoted on X nobody has a clue how great this technology is. @elonmusk @travisraxelrod

@Ocoafeliz @EdJorgePrats @AndyDauhajre @AristyEscuder y por que no hacer una politica sencilla de prohibir vehículos no híbridos y no eléctricos que nos ayudarían bajar la dependencia al petróleo

El mundo vive ciclos de alzas del petróleo, y los países responsables no esperan la crisis para reaccionar: se preparan. Para una nación como la República Dominicana, anticiparse es clave. Fortalecer las finanzas públicas, usar con prudencia los subsidios y promover una cultura de ahorro energético es la mejor defensa frente a esos choques.🛢️📊🇩🇴

Here is a concise, bullet-point summary of the key assessments and probabilities from our discussion thread (as of March 16, 2026, evening EDT), based on the evolving US-Israel-Iran war, Khamenei's confirmed death, Mojtaba's succession, and related events: - **Khamenei's death on February 28, 2026**: Confirmed and widely accepted (Iranian state media, global reports). - **Mojtaba Khamenei as new Supreme Leader**: Installed March 8, 2026; issuing statements vowing resistance; health/whereabouts questions persist (some reports of injury/survival near-miss, absence speculation), but regime projects stability under him and IRGC. - **Regime change probability (full overthrow/collapse of Islamic Republic)**: - Near-term (next 1–3 months / by ~April 2026): ~3–10% (crowd markets like Polymarket at 3% for March 31; no mass uprisings, strong repression/IRGC control). - Medium-term (by end of 2026): ~20–39% (Polymarket at ~39% for pre-2027; war degradation ~80–90% missile capacity, oil/Hormuz disruptions, but resilience dominates; no ground invasion planned). - Longer-term (2027+): ~35%+ (cumulative pressure possible, but institutional durability high). - **Reza Pahlavi's role in post-regime transition to a "modern" (secular, democratic, pro-Western) Iran**: - Conditional on regime change: ~50% chance he could effectively help/guide (preparations via Iran Prosperity Project, diaspora support, transitional blueprint, calls for referendum/monarchy vs. republic). - Overall (including low regime-change odds): Low (~5–15%; Kalshi/Polymarket at ~9–15% for him leading in 2026; seen as symbolic/exile figure with limited broad domestic credibility, potential "puppet" backlash, Trump admin distance). - **@ATLSwiss original optimistic predictions (post-regime abundance, $80–90 oil stabilization enabling investments, rapid EV transition offset, end of petroyuan hegemony)**: Overall ~20% for full scenario by 2027 (strongest on EV acceleration ~75%; weakest on regime fall/abundance ~15% and petroyuan collapse ~10%; war boosting counter-trends like yuan-for-passage proposals). War remains fluid (ongoing strikes, Hormuz trickle, oil ~$100–110/barrel); regime resilient so far, but pressure building—watch for escalations, protests, or defections. Pahlavi actively positioning as transitional leader (e.g., March 14 readiness statement), but success hinges on actual collapse.

que articulos tan pesimistas que no entienden lo fácil que es salir adelante. En las crisis anteriores no había forma de salirse del yugo del petróleo, pero ahora en 2026 sí lo hay. 1. prohiban la importación de tipos de vehículos que ya existan alternativas eléctricas. Etiopía lo ha hecho. Noruega ya el 96% de vehículos nuevos son eléctricos. Nosotros no producimos petróleo, ni fabricamos vehículos. Que estamos esperando? 2. Como persona involucrada en la producción de petróleo, espero que el precio se estabilice alrededor de USD$80-90. porqué ? Por qué si se estabiliza el precio que me de rentabilidad - espero hacer inversiones en pozos de petróleo nuevo que son 10X más productivos que los viejos, pero me cuestan más. Si el petróleo baja por debajo de $60, no me interesa gastar en nuevos pozos..— 3. Nadie está mencionando el helio, 35% de la producción mundial sale de Qatar y se necesita para enfriar los chips de IA. Ni tampoco que se utiliza el gas natural para crear fertilizantes. Si no se resuelve el pase por el estrecho de Hormuz en 3 meses, las cosechas del sureste de Asia y Australia se van a pique. 4 Nadie está hablando sobre el tumbe de la hegemonía del uso del Yuan para el petróleo. Eso se acabó 5. Estamos a la esquina de una época de abundancia, ya que con los mullahs fuera de acción, el mundo será mucho mejor para todos.

In 1980, a bioarchaeologist at Emory University named George Armelagos was studying ancient human bones from Sudanese Nubia, the kingdom that flourished along the Nile south of Egypt between roughly 350-550 CE, when something stopped him. Under ultraviolet light, the bones glowed. They fluoresced with a distinctive yellow-green color that Armelagos recognized immediately, because the same glow appeared in the bones of modern patients who had been treated with tetracycline. The antibiotic binds tightly to calcium and phosphorus in bone tissue as the body metabolizes it, leaving a permanent fluorescent marker. What Armelagos was seeing in bones nearly two thousand years old was chemically identical to what he saw in twentieth-century medical subjects. The archaeological community was skeptical. The received history of antibiotics began with Alexander Fleming’s discovery of penicillin in 1928, and tetracycline itself was not isolated until 1948. The idea that a pre-literate population in the Nile valley had been routinely ingesting it seemed implausible, and the initial findings were dismissed as post-mortem contamination from soil bacteria. Armelagos spent three more decades building the case. He eventually partnered with Mark Nelson, a leading tetracycline specialist at Paratek Pharmaceuticals, who agreed to perform a definitive chemical analysis. The process required dissolving the ancient bones in hydrogen fluoride, one of the most corrosive and dangerous acids in existence. What the resulting liquid-chromatography mass-spectrometry analysis found was not a trace of tetracycline. The bones were saturated with it. Multiple tetracycline variants were identified, including chlortetracycline and oxytetracycline, in concentrations indicating sustained exposure beginning in early childhood and continuing throughout life. Ninety percent of the Nubian individuals tested showed the labeling. The exposure had not been accidental or occasional. It had been lifelong and deliberate. The source was their beer. Ancient Egyptian and Nubian brewing began with grain, typically emmer wheat or barley, which in that region was naturally contaminated with Streptomyces, a soil bacterium that produces tetracycline as a metabolic byproduct. The grain was germinated, made into bread, then incompletely baked to preserve an active center, and finally fermented in vats of water. The standard practice was to seed each new batch with ten percent of the previous one, which kept the Streptomyces culture alive and active from batch to batch in a continuous chain. The resulting brew was thick, sour, low in alcohol, and highly nutritious. Everyone drank it, including children as young as two years old. The critical question Armelagos could not fully resolve was whether the Nubians understood what they were doing. The consensus among researchers is that they almost certainly did not know the mechanism. They had no concept of bacteria, no understanding of antibiotics as a drug class, and no language for what tetracycline was doing in their bodies. What they likely did know, accumulated through generations of observation and passed down as practical knowledge, was that this particular preparation of beer had medicinal effects. Ancient Egyptian and Jordanian medical texts record beer being used to treat gum disease, wounds, and other infections. The brewing method that produced tetracycline appears to have been deliberately maintained and refined over centuries, not by any understanding of the chemistry involved, but by the accumulated recognition that it worked. #archaeohistories

@RGlobalXNews @Eng_china5 a just noticed now why now and why USA? it’s all about the hegemony of the petrodollar

@Eng_china5 Iran isn’t just blocking U.S. ships and hitting U.S. and allied economies — it is trying to destroy the dollar’s power and break the rule that global trade must use U.S. dollars.

Iran has allowed the first oil tanker to pass through the Strait of Hormuz after the shipment was paid for in Chinese yuan. The ‘Karachi’ oil tanker, an Aframax-class vessel carrying Das crude from Abu Dhabi, crossed the Strait of Hormuz safely with its AIS (Automatic Identification System) activated. It is the first non-Iranian oil tanker to do so today without any incident, and it is on its way to Pakistan.

@GordonJohnson19 everything @elonmusk has touched turned to gold, guess you haven’t heard yet?

2/5... 100GWh of production by 2022 and ended up with roughly 20GWh by 2025, with none of the cost savings or the $25K cheap car that was supposed to come with it. Now they want to build their own semiconductor fabrication plant, which is a completely...

1/5 First, it's important to remember $TSLA has a well-established pattern of making enormous promises on manuf. projects & then dramatically underdelivering - i.e., the 4680 battery cell is the perfect example, where they promised at the 2020 launch...

@RyanTanaka @WR4NYGov @JeffBezos work is overrated. Financial Independence allows you the liberty of your time and no need to balance work/home since it is all 100% your choice

@ATLSwiss @WR4NYGov Totally. I like @JeffBezos's phrase: "Work-Life Harmony." Doing well and working hard at work should give you energy for when you go home. And doing well and being present at home should give you energy for when you go to work.

The deadliest phrase in a tech startup: Work-Life Balance

Es que no entiendes la jugada que trump esta haciendo, esta poniendo el jaque mate a China.... y confirmando con acciones quiened son sus aliados en tiempo de guerra. Todo por mantener el petrodolar en vez del Yuan que es lo que queria hacer China. Le estan apretando los huevos chinos.

Trump desesperado, nunca imaginó que terminaría en un callejón sin salida al atacar a Irán.
