Parts can break. If you design things with fewer parts, they're less likely to break.
So instead of having four companies that do some of the same things, just have one.
Imagine this timeline:
All of his companies merge. They consolidate into two divisions:
Tesla FSD, xAI become the software division.
SpaceX, Tesla vehicles and robotics, Neuralink, Boring Company become the hardware division.
The best part is no part.
This is why I think it'll be the Raspberry Pi of small trucks. By the time most people buy accessories, it isn't much cheaper than a single board computer or small server. People buy it because it's hacker-friendly.
That said, I look forward to seeing what people do with it.
Our unusually heavy snow has turned to ice, and the Duratracs are handling surprisingly well. No slippage on turns where I'd expect it. Makes me want to find some frozen hills and terrain just to torture test them.
You're not missing much.
I don't know why they approved me because I never jumped through their hoops, but there's higher quality and quantity of discussion here on CTOC.
The rare unique post over there tends to make its way here anyway.
Great use case for FSD.
So you're working about as much as a part-time job and pulling in more than enough to pay for a Model Y with FSD? Does this account for taxes too?
