Piers Morgan: Elon Musk is a superhero.
“I think Elon actually might be a superhero. What you know is almost every business he starts, everyone condemns it to immediate failure. Everyone thinks it's destined to fail. It cannot be achieved.
It's always done on a massive grandiose scale with a massive grandiose plan. And he's delivered.
SpaceX is probably the most coveted company in the world right now by every other successful businessperson. And people said, it's never going to work. This is going to throw good money after bad.
Look at what SpaceX does around the world now. Look at the satellite systems, never mind anything else, they are just on a different level to anything we've seen.
He's even, I saw the other day, planning to help with the countryside issue in the UK, if you live in the countryside, you don't get a phone signal. He just thinks I'll fix Britain and this phone signal.
Then you look at 𝕏 and what he's done there, it's gone from 67% Democrat, 32% Republican on 𝕏 to now it's pretty well 50-50. He's redressed the balance.
He's made it easier for conservatives not to be deplatformed and removed just because of their political allegiance.
So, he's democratized this very undemocratic but massively popular, powerful social media tool.
I look at all the things he's been doing, and I think, actually, what's the common thread here? All of it is a force for good.
All of it is ultimately designed to save us from ourselves. If you look at it, what is a superhero?
A superhero is somebody who thinks on a massively big scale for the good of the people and often saves the people from themselves.
I'm not saying he's a perfect human being. He can be difficult and all the rest of it. Of course he can. And he wouldn't say he's perfect himself.
But by a superhero criteria right now in the world, who is a bigger transformative superhero right now than Elon Musk? Who? Give me a name.”

think FSD 14.3.13 is the highest-quality, most mature release of V14. The regressions I ran into on 14.3.11 and 14.3.12 are gone, and after a week of driving I haven't hit any noticeable issues. My biggest takeaway this week: most of the time I'm just riding along, which is probably close to what riding in a Cybercab feels like. 3.13 might already be very close to V15, or V15 could be coming soon.
The video below shows how well 3.13 handles a complex stretch of road. Heavy traffic, lots going on: a Costco, a Home Depot, fast-food places, and auto repair shops of all sizes. I needed to turn left 0.1 miles ahead, so my Model Y stayed in the left lane. A white van ahead was turning left into a fast-food place. The Y slowed, waited for traffic in the right lane to clear, quickly went around the van, and moved back into the left lane for the turn.
Then it got interesting. There were two left-turn entrances close together. Normally you'd just queue behind the black SUV ahead, especially at night with my view completely blocked. The Y paused for a moment, then started going around it. My first thought: uh oh, FSD is about to do something dumb and cut to the front of the line. My foot was ready on the brake to take over. But as soon as the nose cleared the SUV, I saw the left-turn lane ahead was empty. FSD's cameras had already seen it, and that's why it decided to go around. That chain of decisions, all in a few seconds, was seriously impressive.

Good questions
How come Elon Musk is the only one seriously talking about all these young people dying in the trenches for no reason and begging for this war to stop? Innocent young Ukrainians and Russian conscripts are getting blown apart by drones, losing their lives
And then you look at Europe. What do you only keep hearing from so many European leaders? More weapons, more ammunition, more military support. “We cannot let Russia win”
You almost never hear them seriously talking about how to bring peace and end this war for good
Why the hell aren't those same leaders putting that much energy into figuring out how to stop this meat grinder?
What are these leaders actually doing to stop young people from dying every single day? What are they doing to end this endless slaughter? Why aren't they putting the same urgency into finding a way to end this war instead of constantly talking about sending more weapons and how they should continue this war forever?
These are human beings. They have parents, families, loved ones, and entire lives ahead of them. And they're dying in trenches because of decisions made by people who will never have to experience what those young soldiers are going through
And that includes the poor Russian conscripts who have no choice but to fight. They're human beings too. Their lives matter too
How many more young people need to die before stopping this war becomes just as important as deciding who wins it?
Why does it take Elon Musk to keep reminding people about the human lives being destroyed by this war?
Seriously, where the hell is the urgency to stop all this killing? everyone who wants to continue this war is pure evil

罕见视频：马斯克在SpaceX内部的一所学校，向孩子们传授第一性原理思维 ⬇️
Back in 2014, Elon Musk founded a school Ad Astra right inside SpaceX HQ to teach kids how to think and solve problems from first principles
In rare footage, Elon explains:
“Let’s look at the physics and economics of a rocket…”
Instead of accepting that something is impossible because others have failed at it, break the problem down to fundamental truths......what the physics and materials actually allow....then reason up from there to see what’s possible
The same mindset made SpaceX make reusable rockets a reality, being passed on to the next generation

FSD v14.3.5DU vs 4-way stop sign (Victoria/Reserve St Intersection Sydney)
I am sorry to report, FSD 0 : 4-way stop sign 3.
FSD slams the brake to a full stop in the middle of the intersection 3 times in a row (coming from Botany St direction). Can we get this fixed in the future release team? @teslasi @TeslaAUNZ Having said that, opposite direction was fine, the 4-way stop sign one block up (Queen/Reserve St Intersection) was no issues either.

2nd @robotaxi ride had a scary moment where it panicked and missed our drop off againnnnn 💀💀🥲
Thankfully Rider support helped out on our second loop around and manually drove us to our destination 👍🏼
First @Robotaxi ride of the day with grandma and my dad.
Rider support was so helpful and really went above and beyond.
This is what you call the gold standard of customer service ……
Yes I’m being sarcastic. 😐

A friend of mine said that we should welcome illegal immigrants, so long as they don’t live near her. She’s now a former friend. My mom used to say, you cannot argue with stupid or crazy people. Her quote is in my new book. I still try, but without success.
Let me ask you this simple but direct question:
If you were a genuine asylum seeker seeking help and rescue for a better life, would you do this? 🤔 xitter.cf/hibikana417/status/208…

SpaceX 今天正式上市，马斯克的身价来到了 1.1 万亿美元，成为世界上第一位达到 1 万亿美元财富的人，真正的万亿富翁。这个量级是什么概念？1.1 万亿美元差不多是世界富豪榜排名第二的人 3 倍有余。现在把世界上排名第二、第三、第四的超级富豪们的资产全部加起来，可能才勉强能和马斯克一个人打平。
这一财富体量已经超越了全球 125 个国家的年度 GDP，轻松超越了美国历史上的传奇首富约翰·D·洛克菲勒。
一些有趣的数字
- 一个人活80岁，每天大约要花 3.76 亿美元，才刚好把 1.1 万亿美元用完。
- 马斯克一个人的身价，差不多等于两个标普500的总资金量。
- 把这 1.1 万亿美元全部清仓，换成 SCHD 每年股息440 亿美元，每天躺赚 1.2 亿美元。
- 一口气买下股神伯克希尔·哈撒韦，还能剩几百亿美金当零花钱。
- 直接现金全资买下 麦当劳 + 迪士尼 + 奈飞 - 可口可乐 这四家全球商业巨头的所有股份。
- 如果把 1.1 万亿美元全部换成 100 美元现钞，重量将来到 11,000 吨，搬回家需要雇佣 550 辆满载的重卡车队。
- 马斯克一个人的总资产，相当于美国这个全球最大经济体近 3 个月的国家总税收。
所以你们认为雷总蹲着和他合照还有什么问题吗

The truth is that there are VASTLY more hate crimes, especially aggravated rape and murder, per person by Blacks against Whites than the other way around.
The is not remotely debatable, as the numbers are so extremely lopsided!
Last year DOJ published a report.
For every 10,000 blacks, 153 violent crimes are committed by a black person each year against a white person.
The same figure for violent crimes committed by whites against a black person: 3.4.
A black person is 50-times more likely to commit a violent crime against a white person than for a white person to commit a violent crime against a black person.
This is an extraordinary difference in the rates of violence committed between these two groups.
We are told that whites are systemically racist.
We are told that whites are successful because they oppress others.
But the facts tell the opposite story.
Blacks are not the ones being victimized.
Whites are.
Western civilization has been successful not because it was oppressive.
It has been successful because whites created, starting thousands of years ago, systems that are impartial and fair.
Today these systems are being dismantled.
Criminals are being released because of their skin color.
Law-abiding citizens are punished because of theirs.
All in service of an ideology that is simply false.
This puts everyone in danger.
