@dbielecki @surfranchvibes Mine can't drive me! It's a long way short of everyone.

@surfranchvibes It drives me. I can relax, enjoy the view, be rested after arrival. This needs to be everyone’s first answer!

What is one feature in a Tesla vehicle that you treasure the most?

@surfranchvibes Reliability

@TheHugeLap @harryjsisson Trump is a f*cking genius. Sucked in an entire country and gets paid to tweet all night. How many of you could do that?

@harryjsisson So he’s up and still working at 1am for the good of America and the American people and you’re pissing your pants over it

Donald Trump posted 55 times on social media between 10:00 pm and 1 am. His posting spree included calls to arrest Obama, Clinton, Comey etc. He also attacked his own DOJ for not charging them with treason. This man is not well. 25th Amendment now.

@PoorDecisionsMW @Danny_Ruiz123 @postapocryphal @PalmerLuckey Throw it away and they'll just give you even more, they don't give a fuck about you. And that's how we end up in a world full of shit and waste while people like you do nothing.

@Danny_Ruiz123 @postapocryphal @PalmerLuckey Very nearly all paper and wood products, except for building materials, come from renewable tree farms. Just throw it away or recycle it, who gives a fuck.

It is time for the United States Postal Service to ban junk mail. Unsolicited spam calls are already prohibited by the FCC. Emails are heavily regulated by the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003. Junk mail is the majority of mail, 100 million trees per year. Enough!

@PalmerLuckey I don't know about the US, but here in NZ I just put a "No junk mail" sign on my mailbox and voila, I only get mail addressed to me.

@ABridgen Blah, blah blah. Worked fine on me.

Hospitals were ORDERED to pump patients full of toxic Remdesivir (UK used Midazolam) instead of safe, cheap IVERMECTIN because using it would’ve ended the “emergency,” killed the vaccine money machine, and exposed the entire scam. They knowingly murdered countless for profit.

@Angry_Amphibian @DrBrianKeating @neiltyson I think there isn't a better single category for the four, is there?

@LinzzWright @DrBrianKeating @neiltyson If you call the latter four physicists.

In ZERO TO ONE, Peter Thiel said “only computers and communications have improved dramatically since midcentury.” That’s over 75 years of stagnation. In engineering. In physics. In biotech. Neil DeGrasse Tyson (@neiltyson) strenuously disagrees: Thiel Is WRONG: youtu.be/tlTIHhsAjG4 What do you think?

@Angry_Amphibian @DrBrianKeating @neiltyson We're down to just four physicists? Holy crap, Sabine was right, scientists ARE disappearing.

@DrBrianKeating @neiltyson In the 20th century we had Einstein, Feynman, Bohr, Planck, Eddington, Lemaître, Heisenberg, and more. In the 21st century we have Tyson, Keating, Cox and Hossenfelder. We are now living in an idiocracy.

@surfranchvibes I would argue that availability of fuel is important. When the fuel runs out, ice vehicles are 100% safe. As well as 100% useless too of course.

These are all good, but Tesla is the safest vehicle ever produced. That’s the most important

@wholemars Piltdown man with big rock

Where did the idea of a permanent underclass come from?

@elhotzo I bought something.

@lauriewired A Harvard professor probably doesn't know one end of a soldering iron from the other. They need engineers or technicians.

Most of the time, too much voltage is a bad thing. …except in early ICBMs. In the late 50s, you literally had to fry the targeting system to make it work. At the time, US Air Force generals were extremely skeptical of computerized targeting: "Where are you going to put the five Harvard professors you'll need to keep it running?" The traditional method of storing guidance constants was to solder an individual board with the right values. If you wanted a different target, you would have to build a different board. Wen Chow, a computer engineer, proposed a really (clever? weird?) solution. Have everyone assemble the same board (a universal diode matrix) with every possible targeting configuration. Then, send a high reverse voltage across particular leads to burn out the junction… By frying individual diodes with high voltage, you “program” individual bits! If you’ve ever heard of the term, “burning the PROM”…now you know it comes from working on Atlas ICBMs!

@IngrahamAngle Anything would be better than a state of the US.

Apparently Canada intends to become a province of Europe.

@emukamel @DrBrianKeating A self-evident punch-line.

@DrBrianKeating What do you get when cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

What's the shortest definition of Kolmogorov complexity?

@Kristinartz @grok Absolutely

Be honest: would you kick someone out of your house for mistreating your pet? @grok

@TrackingTheSB Nowhere near orbital! They need to try harder.

@wholemars Why do people with no clue, no brain cells, and - worst of all - no evidence, spout all this sort of crap?

Tesla makes the impossible possible

@Wwit314 @SawyerMerritt @grok Holy crap! 200 Megapacks a week? Insane.

@SawyerMerritt Hi @grok, at 200 megapaks a week, what is the annual revenue contribution to Tesla’s bottom line?

Tesla has released a new video about their Megapack factory in Lathrop, California. They say they are now producing 200 Megapacks a week.

@readswithravi Me too.

@Object_Zero_ Ah, I see datacenters are compact. So?

This 100MW data center in UAE is the largest solar powered datacenter in the world. There are currently 1,300 data centers in the world that are bigger than this one, but this one is the largest solar powered one. That’s 10 square kilometres of solar panels you can see. The datacenter itself is 0.02 square kilometres, so a solar powered datacenter is ~500x larger than a data center using any other form of power. A five hundred times larger site. UAE has some of the highest solar irradiance anywhere on Earth, it is an inhospitable desert. Averaging 9.7 hours of sunlight per day with average irradiance above 2,200 kWh/m^2. If you build this somewhere else, you need more solar panels because your irradiance will almost certainly be lower. Even if the world had an infinite supply of free solar panels, solar power will not be free. Anyone who has ever done major capital projects, who looks at where data centers need to be in the next 5 years and the next 10 years… we know it aint solar. Sorry. You struggle to even build a train track that’s 100 miles long and 10ft wide anywhere in the West, there is zero chance of build 100 square mile solar farms for GW compute. This is why people are talking about space compute. Deploying into space is one strategy to solve the constraints. But there are faster and more scalable strategies, that get you to mass deployment of multi GW data centers. There are strategies that also allow you to power the 10 billion robots and their newtonian actuators, that immediately follow the inference demand cycle. Step back and look at the full cycle of this industrial revolution… There will be billions of chips, but there will be trillions of actuators. This biggest part of this revolution is the embodiment cycle, and it’s big by a factor of 20 or 50x over the stuff that comes before it. There is no analogy in human history for the scale of this economy, of the demand it will place on energy and commodities. The humans own the Earth, and if you exist inside their legal system, they won’t let you turn the surface of their planet into glass. But they do want your chips and your actuators to serve their needs and desires. There is a way to do all of this, and so it will happen.
