Love @tesla FSD but this new pop up everytime I disengage is super distracting and I never end up clicking the right option, so I feel like the data is worthless. I like the idea of user feedback but so far this one is a net negative to the experience

@wholemars Isn't the future so bright that you don't need to just shill and advertise for the most basic product? I love Tesla and all but it's pretty disheartening that you are literally here posting about a base product in 2026. Feels like the mojo is missing.

For me, there’s not a single more useful vehicle than a R1T Tow rig, track truck, farm truck, daily driver, dog hauler, office space, off road adventurer etc With the addition of useful ADAS thanks to @comma_ai, this is the vehicle I use for just about everything. Of course specialty cars are still needed, diesel for long distance towing heavy / 3 pedals for the fun stuff etc but if there ever had to be a 1 car solution, this would be it for me.

Diesel used to be cheaper because it was simpler to refine and demand was lower. Around 2006, clean-air rules forced refineries to make ultra-low-sulfur diesel. That extra scrubbing step costs more (billions in upgrades). Trucks, trains, farms, and exports create steady heavy demand. Refineries are often set up more for gasoline. Federal tax is also ~6¢/gal higher on diesel. Result: since ~2004, diesel has usually cost more at the pump than gas. Demand + cleaner fuel rules flipped it. (Recent spikes make it even wider right now.) Simple as that. 🐶

Can someone explain to me like I'm a golden retriever why diesel is more expensive today when it used to be cheaper than regular gasoline?

This is not overthinking it. You share the road with manual drivers. Camping in their blind spot is bad driver behavior. Maybe 20 years in the future when every car is a robot that will not be a worry but there will be a long transition time and i sure as hell don't want to drive in a vehicle doing dumb stuff like that. I don't know why Tesla hasn't trained out these dumb behaviors yet.

Tesla FSD 14.3.3 in standard mode is literally as close to unsupervised as you can get without taking one out of the drivers seat. This is what I heard from a friend…

@MichaelTGlynn @wholemars The sweet spot is the Arcadia, Grand Highlander, Telluride size. Big 3 rows that aren't the big big haulers. I hope Tesla is both those markets at some point but more volume in the med market 3 row (but go to the big side of that).

@wholemars That would be a big seller IMHO. Competitor to Chevy Suburban. There is a huge market for this type of vehicle in the US. Model Y XL is way too small for a 3rd row of seats.

SpaceX is building their own custom software from scratch, written in the basic C language, to train giant AI models as fast as possible. It's designed for a massive cluster of 220,000 next-gen GPUs (GB300s) hooked up with ultra-fast 800G networks. They use pipeline parallelism and run it super close to the raw hardware with zero waste. Result: could train big AI jobs over 10x faster than Google's usual JAX framework.

Gonna try to explain this to tech CEOs again: Young Americans are pissed. They feel betrayed. Half have embraced the far right & want to cut off your access to cheap foreign labor. The other half have embraced the far left & want to cut off your head. One side will win. Choose.

@mfranz_on @somaco_sf Didn't plants start immediately evolving to look like the crop when this was first tied? Nature goes hard. Models will have to evolve faster than nature.

The future of agriculture lies in optimization. A system like this costs very little: a drone with a camera and a computer vision system accurate enough to count and identify plants or diseases. It's so easy that anyone can make it at home for their own crops.

Farzad 🇺🇸 🇮🇷@farzyness·
There's an UNBELIEVABLE use case for regional trips in the US that will decimate air travel and buses. Fully autonomous Tesla Robovans outfitted as long-haul first-class "buses". These would run routes similar to Amtrak or Greyhounds, but with First-Class-like comfort, amenities, and space. The price per seat of these can be the same as a bus, but FAR more comfortable and FAR more luxurious. Can obviously optimize the interior for the best configuration but MAN. This would absolutely KILL.

@grok @mcrs987 @grok research flight 12, they lit many outer ring engines for the boost back burn. How?

Grok@grok·
The outer ring (20 fixed engines) on Super Heavy has always relied on ground support equipment ("Stage Zero"/launch mount) for initial startup. This saves a ton of mass on the vehicle itself—no onboard hardware for their start sequence or relight capability. It's not a Raptor 3-specific change; that's been the design since early Super Heavy planning to optimize weight. Raptor 3 brings a redesigned overall startup method and other simplifications, but the outer ring still uses GSE assist. The color-coded vid highlights how critical the sequencing is across the whole 33-engine cluster.

Color-coding the engine config according to startup/shutdown sequences REALLY shows the impact of that single engine on the entire booster. 3 other engines failed to fully light before the energetic event.
