@al_levy @PeterDiamandis How convenient lol. Don’t like the way the data looks when you report it the way you have for years? No problem! Just change the filter. 🤡

Tesla's FSD: 5.3 million miles between accidents. US driving average: 660,000.  That's 9x safer. And it's only getting better.

Love that the economic moat is “narrow”. ⁦@RobinhoodApp⁩, who writes this stuff and when do you plan to update? 🤣

@PeterDiamandis Weird how that unverifiable curated statistic doesn’t match up with miles between incidents in Austin when they actually audit things. Crazy world.

I know this makes me a Luddite in the @tesla community but I think it’s crazy an AI is 59% of my driving. Literally living in the future ⚡️

After seventeen incredible years, my latest chapter at Tesla has come to a close. Words won’t do justice to how fulfilling the experience has been, but I’ll try anyway: Tesla barely survived Christmas 2008. I started a few days later in our Finance team, under an ongoing “Tesla Deathwatch”. I slept under my desk in San Carlos, CA at least once, and I wasn’t the only one. There are many companies with hard-working and talented employees, but few have the level of commitment and collaboration of the Tesla team. In retrospect, this should have been an obvious predictor of the successes that would follow. This is as true today as it was in 2009. To my former Finance team: You are heroes within a company full of heroics, given the full-body workout that is your daily job. Take an Accounting or Finance textbook off the shelf and flip to a random page - Tesla is undoubtedly manifesting the underlying concept in the real world. From selling hardware and software under various business models, managing assets of all types (including digital ones), to pursuing continuous investment into an ambitious future throughout the world, you make the impossible look easy. To my colleagues across the rest of the company - I am grateful for the time that you have spent to educate me, including during my stints outside of the Finance team. You have started with one of Tesla’s strongest advantages - the strongest talent across engineering, manufacturing/operations, and customer-facing functions - and have turned it into an unstoppable force via your “one team” attitude. For me, late-night sessions on topics ranging from the physics of a brake rotor to the training of a neural network proved more valuable than any classroom experience that came before, and made the company stronger as a result. Going to work is not supposed to be this much fun. @elonmusk : A heartfelt thanks for your endless love of humanity, and for demonstrating the power of thinking from first principles at all times, about all things. When Abundance is achieved and money ceases to have meaning, these lessons will be the most valuable commodity in our economy. To the outside world, who may not have experienced the above first-hand: Remember that Tesla’s mission is so ambitious and complex that any narrative about the company is naturally an oversimplification. Seek the truth about the company at all times. And support it in any way that you can! There are few higher callings/better uses of your time.

Trump is running the most dangerous geopolitical blitz since Bretton Woods. And the endgame isn't a trade war. There's a theory circulating that Trump is running a far more ambitious play -- one designed to collapse BRICS, force China's hand, and lock in dollar dominance for decades. It's bold. It's speculative. And whether you buy it or not, the underlying moves are worth paying attention to: 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟭: 𝗩𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘇𝘂𝗲𝗹𝗮 The U.S. moves on Venezuela's oil, lithium, gold, and rare-earth reserves. Not for regime change — for resource control. China has quietly relied on Venezuelan oil to sidestep sanctions for years. That lifeline gets cut first. 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟮: 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗱𝗮 This one's less dramatic but arguably more important. Canada deepens its alignment with Washington — offering diplomatic support, intelligence sharing, and strategic basing access. It's not that Ottawa becomes a puppet. It's that North America starts operating as a single economic and security bloc in a way we haven't seen since WWII. That kind of continental unity sends a message that's hard to ignore. 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟯: 𝗜𝗿𝗮𝗻 With Venezuela compromised, China pivots to Iran for oil. Predictable. That's when the U.S. and Israel escalate — strikes on Iranian nuclear sites, command infrastructure, and oil facilities. China's backup energy source disappears. 𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟰: 𝗥𝘂𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗮 Here's where the theory gets really interesting -- and really controversial. The argument is that a back-channel deal is already taking shape. Russia, increasingly squeezed and looking for off-ramps, begins redirecting energy exports toward Western markets. Out of self-interest, not friendship. In return, Moscow gets energy revenue guarantees and a pathway back to the global trading system. Canada, with its existing Arctic and energy ties, becomes the diplomatic bridge. The result is a North American–Russian energy alignment that removes China's last major source of leverage. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗘𝗻𝗱𝗴𝗮𝗺𝗲 BRICS loses its economic foundation. Beijing, cut off from reliable energy and geopolitical allies, is forced to negotiate on American terms, including purchasing U.S. debt at favorable rates. The dollar gets a controlled reset with gold as the backstop, and the global financial system re-centers around Washington. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗶𝘁𝗰𝗼𝗶𝗻 + 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗶𝗻 𝗟𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿 Energy price spikes and defense spending flood capital into risk assets. Bitcoin pushes past $200K. Then comes the executive orders: a Strategic U.S. Bitcoin Reserve, funded by seized assets and energy windfalls. But the piece most people are sleeping on is stablecoins. Every USD-pegged stablecoin moving across borders reinforces American financial infrastructure without a single new bank branch. The GENIUS Act laid the regulatory rails. A geopolitical shakeup of this scale would create a demand shock. Stablecoins don't just survive a reset like this. They become the rails it runs on. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗙𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗦𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲: Resource control → energy dominance → geopolitical isolation of China → dollar reset + Bitcoin reserve + stablecoin expansion. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗙𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗦𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲: Precision chaos → total energy dominance → China's surrender on U.S. terms → dollar reset + strategic Bitcoin reserve + stablecoin expansion. American financial supremacy 2.0. Whether you believe it or not, the pieces are already moving.

Ford CEO Jim Farley on the F-150 Lightning: "I totally would've done it differently. I mean, look, we didn't know what we didn't know. I guess it didn't take us long to learn that our internal-combustion-engine prejudice was so high that we hadn't designed the [electric] cars right. We had a Mustang Mach-E, we had an E-Transit, we had a Lightning, and people loved these products. The problem was they were never going to pay the cost we put into the vehicle." insideevs.com/news/788885/fo…

For all the talk about convergence, not enough people appreciating that Neuralink patients are going to have robotic surgery to enable life changing outcomes which are enhanced by connecting to data centers in space. It doesn’t have to be sci-fi. You can just make it sci.
