The so called “visionaries” in Silicon Valley are really like the idiots from the eponymous TV show. They think the whole world is like their cushy little bubbles in San Fransisco. They literally have no idea what the real world is or how it works. Nearly all of them run massively unprofitable “businesses”. It only

All that pre-order cash has been spent already. They will need more cash to build the car to fill the orders.

I disagree with “game-changer”. Words like Ponzi and Theranos come to mind instead.

They did speed up the electrification process but any other credible market player could’ve done the same (better in all likelihood) if they judged it to be in their best interest what with net CO2 effect when you factor in material

“The population is supposed to grow 7.1 percent by 2019, whereas in comparison the entire country has seen less than one percent population growth for more than a decade now.”

Oh no you again, Tesla’s autopilot had 1 single accident? You serious?

You know, it’s not like Tesla remotely disabled Autopilot on all his vehicles pending investigation, that would have been the right thing to do. It’s like watching the failed parallel video parking from yesterday. How do you know if the car can or can’t parallel park if you're expecting to do it?

Can this be clarified:

Then what’s the fuck with Trumpy and his “Make America Great Again” BS? While not a billionaire, he sure as shit isn’t poor (yet?)

“Actually Zoe Saldana is not black enough”

What is a “typical black male,” though? And then, there’s also this:

Maybe Harrison was in tune with what I overheard last night, which was an extended conversation (between 2 white guys) that Kaepernick shouldn’t be protesting anything, because he grew up in a middle class family or whatever and now he makes millions of dollars. Because you know, it’s totally impossible to oppose

As someone who is half black, half white, with a black father, the answer is: “It depends.”

I assure you.... based on the reaction of the media and white america.... he’s just another “nigger”

Jezebel was up in arms about Zoe Saldana playing Nina Simone, because they didn’t think she was black enough.

Someone else said it, but, yeah, America. Colin Kaepernick walking down the street would not elicit musings of “Oh, look a white guy” or even “Oh, look a biracial guy.” For most people, the default is he’s a black guy. So, yeah, ‘Merica.

If we’re gonna play that game, I don’t think Harrison gets to call himself black either. Not enough melanin in that skin, honky!

“What does Rodney Harrison know? Especially seeing as he played most of his career in Quadroon Stadium!”

Didn’t Gary Sheffield say the same thing about Derek Jeter?

Yup, link below: "Jeter ain't all the way black" . Huh. Seems like you have to be the correct definition of black to actually claim black.

I think we should be more concerned about who is doing Harrison’s financial planning.

what, essentially, makes his black parent the dominant factor in determining his race?
