OT, because while a Tesla was involved, it’s not really about EVs. I’m posting because of the tremendous interest in the coming (?) autopilot age. https://www-forbes-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.forbes.com/sites/bradtempleton/2019/09/06/ntsb-report-on-tesla-autopilot-accident-shows-whats-inside

How many total miles do you have? I know that Nissan had (early on, at least) recommended against regular use of a fast charger as it would degrade the battery. I’m curious to learn if you’ve had this very small degradation after a lot of mileage, or if you are seeing it after only 10k miles, o

I think you are wrong on Musk’s behavior, but don’t really care to argue it. I know much shorts can hurt a company’s stock price, and myself own stock where the number of shorts have gone off into the stratosphere.(above even the 34% that you say never happens). That all needs to go into any in

I listened to it. He provides no evidence of manipulation. I’m not saying that it’s not happening, but he hasn’t provided it. But back to the specific point. He NEVER says that the oil companies are colluding. He says that the short sellers are colluding in order to make money. And as an asid
