Did I, at any time, state that the world is indeed a fair place? No shit, Sherlock. It isn’t. I’m simply saying happy workers = better productivity. I’m simply saying the attention on Tesla shouldn’t all be on Musk. Tesla isn’t just one man. And Tesla wasn’t just Musk. There were other key partners in the beginning.…

I hold shares. I know what he does. And I never said the workers are working for free. I am simply saying that I don’t think their sole reward for busting their asses for Elon should be: “be thankful you have a job at all”.

Fair point. But the visionaries alone can’t and don’t make dreams into reality. Everyone plays a part, big or small.

Eh. I don’t care how wealthy he is. All I’m saying is the workers who actually build the cars deserve a shot at their own incentive as well. All attention thus far is on Musk. He alone isn’t the one sweating to literally build the cars.

What he does with it is none of my business. I just question the intent of the incentive when he alone isn’t the one putting the cars together and sweating to turn his often off-the-cuff promises into reality. Happy workers = better products. This is a notion that is lost in the American business mindset.

Hint: click bait.

Personally, I voted no. He is so well off already I just don’t see how this compensation package could provide additional motivation. Plus, he strikes me as a proud, hard-charging visionary. His own drive/ego is his constant motivator. Furthermore, I keep wondering... Elon isn’t the one who is putting in the time and…

Right. Like my other comment... it’s foolish to assume technology is failure-proof. We all live with technology. Smartphones and computers that freeze. Smart speakers that laugh randomly and creep us out. Illogical to assume/expect a self-driving car could be 100% safe.

What the hell is wrong with you? It’s been established by those investigating the accident that the victim stepped out in such a fashion that there was not enough time and distance for the resulting collision to be avoidable.

Opinions are like assholes. Everyone’s got one.

When there isn’t enough time to react and distance to swerve out of the way... you’re saying you can swerve out of the way? Bullshit. This happened on earth, within the gravitational forces of it. All rules of physics still apply. Even if it were to happen in the vacuum of space, rules of physics under those…

Latest from the investigation show that even if it was not an autonomous vehicle, and the driver was alert, he/she would still not have had enough time to stop the vehicle.

I think your accusation is pointed squarely at the wrong source. If we have impossibly high expectations, then we have only ours gullible elves to blame.

False. The correct answer is conditional to gearing ratio.

Shrug. 25+ years in the graphic design business and it reads just fine for me. Though not the prettiest of typefaces... Think of F1 circuit diagrams and then look at the characteristics of the typeface. It will make more sense.

There is a reason I put “in the house” in quotes. Regardless of how the two Korean companies are kept apart financially, retaining customers keeps profits in the larger house... the house of South Korea. Greater success for one can still benefit the other.

It’s future proofing, but it’s not so much to raise the manufacturer’s own standard of living. Like the Japanese brands, the Korean brands are trying to “grow” and “mature” with their customers. Now they’ve established themselves in the global market with what was once entry-level offerings at every category... As…

Pfft... finger print reader is so yesterday. Everything should work like this now (sarcasm):

Regardless of how the companies function financially... the platforms and drivetrains are largely the same, save for minor details.

Hyundai itself isn’t in the luxury segment. They are simply upping their game, adding premium design and content, to secure their value-conscious proposition. They spun the Genesis model into its own luxury brand and adding two additional (for now) models. KIA has not spun off the K900 into a separate luxury brand.…
