Yep, out the door is the only way to negotiate.  

That looks like something I’d attempt to build out of boxes as a child. 

Tesla bot discovered.

Who said Tesla and all their current products isn’t a joke?

Twitter and gifs. The contact point to reality for people these days.

One of the worse things I see in this report is the ignoring of the construction workers. I’m a good enough engineer to know I don’t know everything. A guy with a high school education that has actually done stuff with his hands and not just on a computer knows a lot more about how things actually work than I do. Some…
