Picked up my new Tesla Model Y today and the FSD ride home was the most surreal experience of my life. Went from delivery to parking spot without touching the wheel or pedals once.

I’m guessing you’re the type of Elon fan I was actually talking about ? lol how ironic. Again- Elon Farts and something is spun out of it- about how amazing he is… “No, this is not true at all. There is zero evidence or credible claim anywhere that Elon Musk (or SpaceX) is the “only person” (or contractor) to have used Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) in the aerospace industry. KPIs are a completely standard, decades-old business and contracting tool used by virtually every major aerospace/defense contractor, government agency, and supplier. Why the claim doesn’t hold up • KPIs are routine in aerospace contracting. NASA, the DoD, FAA, and other agencies have required performance metrics, milestones, incentives, and KPIs in contracts for decades. Examples include: • Boeing (SLS, Starliner, commercial aircraft production) — has detailed production rate, quality, safety, and delivery KPIs tied to FAA oversight and government contracts. • Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon/RTX, etc. — all use KPIs for cost, schedule, reliability, and supply-chain performance in everything from fighters to satellites. • Traditional performance-based contracting (PBC), Performance-Based Logistics (PBL), incentive-fee, and milestone-based fixed-price contracts have been common since at least the 1990s–2000s across the industry. • SpaceX does use KPIs (Musk is famous for focusing on a small number of high-impact ones, like cost-per-kilogram-to-orbit or launch cadence), and NASA contracts with SpaceX include performance requirements, milestones, and metrics. But this is not unique—it’s how modern government contracting works for everyone, including newer players like Blue Origin. • Musk himself isn’t a “contractor.” He’s the founder/CEO/owner of SpaceX (a prime contractor to NASA and the DoD). The company wins contracts based on performance, but the idea that he personally is the only individual ever to have KPIs attached to aerospace work is nonsense. Thousands of engineers, managers, and executives at Boeing, Lockheed, etc., have had personal or team KPIs tied to aerospace contracts for generations. The claim appears to be either a misunderstanding, exaggeration, or made-up talking point (possibly confusing Musk’s internal management style—where he pushes very aggressive, visible metrics—with something contract-specific and exclusive). Searches across the web and X turn up plenty of praise for SpaceX’s results and Musk’s metric-driven approach, but nothing supporting any “only person” uniqueness on KPIs. If the person who told you this has a specific source or different definition of “KPIs,” feel free to share it—happy to dig deeper. But based on everything available, this one is straightforwardly false.” I’ve contracted with Aerospace companies myself DIRECTLY for recruitment- we voluntarily agreed to KPI’s I’ve seen multiple larger deals with KPIs in contract- this is just garble from yourself 💯

When @elonmusk started @SpaceX, he didn't ask for a contract. He rewrote the terms. @EricJorgenson explains why: "Elon went to the people actually awarding these contracts and said 'We want an outcome-based contract. I want to be incentivized to drive down the cost. I want to be incentivized to hit the deadlines.' For all the talk that happens about him doing things that have never been done before, the things that he's doing that have never been done before are because he drives cost down. And he drives cost down because the vision is not 'Make as much money as I can.' It wasn't 'Start a new aerospace company that's as profitable as possible.' It was 'Get us to Mars.' That is a heroic thing to go in and say 'I know I could get paid X to do mediocre work, but I actually want to take the risk. I want to burn the boats. I want my back to the wall. I want to know that we have to clear this threshold that nobody has ever crossed before. And I want to go tell my team that because that's how we're actually going to achieve this objective that everybody thinks I'm crazy for setting.'"

@davidsenra @elonmusk @SpaceX @EricJorgenson This is some hard ass kissing. Imagine making out it’s world changing to ask for KPIs in a contract. It actually keeps both parties honest- and isn’t unusual at all…. Elon farts and gets praise lmao 🤣

@__X__Man_ @mucio_moraes @elonmusk And that's just 1 step, there are hundreds of other chemical and photo etch processes that need to be done at similar scales where failure is more likely than success, even after spending the billions required for just a theoretical chance at success. Can it be done? Yeah. Hard.

@DefiantArtGames @mucio_moraes @elonmusk Give it time Tesla is a very vertically oriented company mindset Just as they realized they won't get enough chips from all the current producers .. They will realize they can't get the lithography and other machines fast enough .. Then they will be making their own ...

@__X__Man_ @mucio_moraes @elonmusk This is a hilarious take... ASML has been making these machine unopposed since the beginning of time. There is no alternative. ASML - deposition & etching Zeiss - nanoscale lenses & mirrors Trumpf - lasers ASM - atomic deposition. Everyone uses those companies, noones replacing

@DefiantArtGames @mucio_moraes @elonmusk Most machines like asml do the work of fabricating chips It will be much easier to put together a chip fab than auto parts assembly lines .. The chip fab is all robotic & with Tesla's finances it will be no problem They have already partnered with Intel for the fan tech assist

@__X__Man_ @mucio_moraes @elonmusk Tesla has done nothing to suggest they could do this... - xAI uses Pytorch to train models. - Tesla wires up some simple batteries, heaters, motors, etc to make quite standard cars. Cool FSD stack, still not that complex. Making chips is a lot harder than making cars, we'll see.

@DefiantArtGames @mucio_moraes @elonmusk Wrong there are literally thousands of chip manufacturing lines .. The ones you mentioned are only the very smallest architecture and most complicated ones .. billions of chips are still made on more basic fab lines not every chip needs to be on the super high tech lines 🤣

@__X__Man_ @mucio_moraes @elonmusk "Chip fabs done over and over" really? There is: Samsung, Intel, SMIC (China), and TSMC... that's literally it. Global Foundry, Nexperia, etc make old outdated specialty nodes. Not one of those fabs has rolled their own solutions. They're all ASML, Zeiss, Trumpf, etc.

@DefiantArtGames @mucio_moraes @elonmusk If you think EVs are a small market, You are completely wrong .. china already sells more EVs per year than ICE vehicles .. In the world 18 million electric vehicles have been sold last year about 25% of all vehicles sold new .... Soon it will be 50% It's a huge market 🤣

@__X__Man_ @mucio_moraes @elonmusk Tesla is great at throwing money at the right things to corner a relatively small market (EVs)... throwing money at chip fab does not give you cutting edge chips, unfortunately.

@tslaming Elon has clearly demonstrated that he cannot be trusted on FSD timelines. So we don't know whether autonomy at scale will be achieved this year or the next or the next. We can have our guesses. But we don't actually know. And it would appear neither does Elon.

🚨 Whenever you’re feeling uneasy about $TSLA's current price, it’s worth keeping Elon’s words from the Q2 2025 earnings call in mind 🎙️ "Well, we’re in this like weird transition period where we will lose a lot of incentives in the U.S. ... Look, we’re still a bit at the relatively early stages of autonomy. ... So I mean, does that mean like we could have a few rough quarters? Yes, we probably could have a few rough quarters. And I’m not saying we will, but we could, Q4, Q1, maybe Q2. But once you get to autonomy at scale in the second half of next year, certainly by the end of next year, I think I would be surprised if Tesla’s economics are not very compelling." ⏭️ So, Q2 2026 might be another rough one, but there's a chance that Tesla will achieve autonomy at scale in Q3 or Q4 this year, and that's when we reap rewards for being patient 🙏

FOURTEEN YR OLD BOY GENIUS CLAIMS CERN EXPERIMENTS 'BLEW UP THE WORLD IN 2008' Many of these videos do the rounds and I ignore them, but this one is incredible and has scary validity potential behind it The other strange thing is that I can't find any mention of where this boy is now?! Albeit he changed his surname and may well be lying low because like anyone that challenges the worlds normal science rules, it's a dangerous game Take a look and let me know what you think... #CERN

@akafaceUS This can’t be real. Unless the person running this storage facility knows about it and was letting him live in it, that extension cord, fake lock setup, noises from inside and smells from food cooking in that microwave would get him caught very quickly. None of that is low key

He probably goes to the gas station bathroom to go to the bathroom to take a shit, but I don’t know where he would go to take a shower unless there’s a YMCA somewhere nearby but even that you can’t just do it anytime you want the place is closed at some point during the day. This is crazy. Don’t say I could get away with it for very long. It seem like somebody would hear him at some point during the day or night
