        Why are you misquoting the article that is not what it says

        Why are you accusing me of something I didn’t do?

        From the bottom of the article:

        Updated to correct an error in describing how radar works.

        I quoted it correctly at the time. They just edited it after I commented.

    Trust the process.

    The man is a tragic waste of functioning organs. And it would be really really funny if one of his own jank ass “smart cars” ends up ending him.

      Counter point: If I didn’t hear how badly he runs his businesses, or how bad his company’s products are. I would have easily bought one or more of his products.

      I have backed out of Tesla pre-orders because of the bad publicity, many reports of bad build quality, and terrible business decisions.

      If this was a puff piece, I honestly wouldn’t have bothered posting it.
