“@teslaownersSV @SamTwits Once the board was presented with the evidence of Eberhard’s deception/fraud & the dire state of the company, all board members, including those he appointed, voted unanimously to fire him in August 2007.”
“@teslaownersSV @SamTwits He came damn close to killing Tesla through a combination of bad management decisions, driving out talented people, bad engineering, major blunders in supply chain & an elaborate deception about the true cost & schedule of the Tesla Roadster.”
“@SamTwits Founding story of Tesla as portrayed by Eberhard is patently false. I wish I had never met him. Eberhard is by far the worst person I’ve ever worked with in my entire career. Given how many people I’ve worked with over the years, that’s really saying something …”
“@teslaownersSV @24_7TeslaNews @SpaceX No guarantees, but maybe next month. Requires quite a lot of incremental testing & code tweaks for different road system in Canada.”
“@24_7TeslaNews @teslaownersSV @SpaceX Hoping to start releasing to 98 scores with V10.5 in about 10 days”
“@teslaownersSV @SpaceX Ancient times”
“@SamTwits I hope they’re able to achieve high production & breakeven cash flow. That is the true test. There have been hundreds of automotive startups, both electric & combustion, but Tesla is only American carmaker to reach high volume production & positive cash flow in past 100 years.”
“@WholeMarsBlog I had too many bottles of Teslaquila!”
“@24_7TeslaNews @WholeMarsBlog We are rolling 10.4 out slowly, as there are many subtle hardware differences in the owner fleet. If it continues to look good over the next few days, we may start rolling out to 98 safety scores.”
“@Rainmaker1973 Tesla Autopilot spends a lot of effort on minimizing jerk”
“Much is made lately of unrealized gains being a means of tax avoidance, so I propose selling 10% of my Tesla stock. Do you support this?”
“@teslaownersSV Haha true! The top alternate name, if we couldn’t acquire the Tesla Motors trademark, was Faraday, which a competitor ended up using.”
“@Jon4Lakers @Tesla We will post finer-grained details of software improvements going forward”
“@koolio @Jon4Lakers @Tesla Exactly. Improved memory will cause predictions to converge & reduce jitter.”
“@Teslarati @Writer_01001101 In the future, any Tesla you use will automatically sync to your preferences”
“@BLKMDL3 @Jon4Lakers @Tesla Probable”
“@Jon4Lakers @Tesla Neural net upgrades coming that improve persistence across time & space (better object permanence)”
“@teslaownersSV Cool :)”
“@teslaownersSV !”
“@teslaownersSV You’re welcome! If any of this is based on Hertz, I’d like to emphasize that no contract has been signed yet. Tesla has far more demand than production, therefore we will only sell cars to Hertz for the same margin as to consumers. Hertz deal has zero effect on our economics.”
“@silverph @ring @TOCNYS @Tesla @TeslaNY 🤣”
“Trial program for opening Tesla Superchargers to other EVs has begun”
“@garycruz @truth_tesla @zshahan3 @garyblack00 @WholeMarsBlog @SawyerMerritt Yup, 2nd UAW president in a row. Unlikely to be the last.”

“@truth_tesla @zshahan3 @garyblack00 @WholeMarsBlog @SawyerMerritt Biden is a UAW 🧦 puppet”
“@SawyerMerritt @Tesla By definition, since I own ~20% of Tesla, ~80% of stock gains necessarily went to investors & employees!”
“@DrEliDavid If WFP can describe on this Twitter thread exactly how $6B will solve world hunger, I will sell Tesla stock right now and do it.”
“@hsumacher @Tesla Indeed. The factory was empty at the time, stripped of all equipment that wasn’t worth even its scrap value. But we salvaged what was left & fixed up the old machines so some could work again.”
“@InsideEVs Thanks on behalf of Tesla”
“@ray4tesla “Tesla Hertz Shorts””
“@teslaownersSV @Teslarati @ResidentSponge Tesla always pays its debts”
“@ecommerceshares The cemetery of automotive startups over the past century is very large & will get larger. Tesla & Ford are the only American car companies that haven’t gone bankrupt.”
“@TeslaHype @Teslarati @ResidentSponge Indeed, US taxpayers actually profited from the Tesla loan”
“@Teslarati @ResidentSponge GM & Chrysler were bailed out (money never repaid), but Tesla was not. Crucial Tesla investment actually came from Daimler in 2009, from which they did very well. Tesla received govt energy efficiency loan in 2010, by which time capital markets reopened. Loan was repaid early.”
“@tesla_raj You can also talk through the car speaker. Great for practical jokes :)”
“@WholeMarsBlog FSD/AI team is doing great work. Will get superhuman good in upcoming releases. Note, we will slow down upload rate of releases going forward. First from QA fleet to employee cars for a day, then slowly releasing at ~1000 cars/hr to external beta on Friday aft.”
“@JayinShanghai That math is incorrect, but still a lot of devices per second! I guess if Tesla can reach 20M cars/year, that would be one every ~1.5 seconds!”
“@teslaownersSV Wow, 13 years ago”
“@TheBabylonBee I feel like this has happened at Tesla a few times”
“@PPathole @Tesla Reducing traffic fatalities by 90% seems likely, perhaps ultimately by over 99%”
“@LudaLisl @sat1 @Hertz Also, Tesla will soon be a German car manufacturer.”
“@Teslarati @KlenderJoey I’d like to express appreciation to Tesla Autopilot engineering & QA for working round the clock all weekend to resolve the problem”
“@Teslarati @KlenderJoey Sorry to Tesla beta users for the trouble! Issue turned out to be power saving mode interacting with FSD. Our internal QA fleet didn’t see this, because cars are constantly in use, so very rarely enter power saving mode. Internal QA will obv test this case going forward.”
“@GerberKawasaki Strange that moved valuation, as Tesla is very much a production ramp problem, not a demand problem”
“@PhantomX91 Maybe Optimus will have a cat girl version …”
“@ProTheDoge Lots of people I talked to on the production lines at Tesla or building rockets at SpaceX own Doge. They aren’t financial experts or Silicon Valley technologists. That’s why I decided to support Doge – it felt like the people’s crypto.”
“@BillyM2k @TeslaGong @mishaboar @DogecoinFdn 💯”
“@itsALLrisky @TeslaGong @mishaboar @DogecoinFdn Possibly. Bitcoin was conceived at a time of relatively low bandwidth & high latency. If both continue to improve substantially, we will reach a point when no second layer is needed.”
