If there's no surrounding context, I would read someone saying 'kek' as them being Very Online and aware of channer-type memes. Tbh I would probably give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they were being ironic.
However, given the vast amounts of context we have at our disposal, Elon Musk saying 'kek' is p obviously saying "hello alt-right I love you please love me back everyone else hates me and I am desperately trying to be with it by using a decades-old edgelord phrase".

It's pretty alt-righty and I think emily's otm in Musk's intent.

Obviously this is part of a much bigger conversation but it’s a big problem that anyone who gets ostracized from other online communities for being too bigoted can always find a place amongst the alt right. Like I don’t think these are the communities people are seeking out but they get driven there because everyone else is telling them to shut the fuck up

could be loans for his other companies where tesla stock was put up as collateral i guess

Margin loans weren't part of the financing but there was discussion just the other week of converting some of the debt to margin loans tied to Tesla stock. I'm guessing that's a more difficult prospect at the moment ...

Charging in wintertimeIn order for optimal charging, the battery needs to have a good temperature, approximately 30’C.If you are at a supercharger, are alone on the A-B pair, low charging speed is most likely due to low temperature on the battery(or high SOC). One hour of driving when it is 0’C outside, can still give you a battery temperature of only 17’C. Optimal battery temperature is said to be 30’CIf you plan to charge at your destination on AC on low amp, plug the car in as soon as possible while the battery is still warm after your days driving.If you start charging the car while the battery is cold, you will at first see no progress at all on charging, as all the energy will be put into heating up the battery first. If it is cold enough, it can take several hours before charging starts.

It was at $46.75 when he tweeted that. I guess with some effort he can get it back down under that.

46.75 and it's split at least once since then too

I don't know if I've seen this posted here before - most of it is just "working with Elon is 50% managing Elon", but the final anecdote is too good to miss
https://www.tumblr.com/numberonecatwinner/701567544684855296/elon-wyd
This post is long so I’ll leave you with my favorite Elon story. One day at work, I got an all hands email telling me that it was Elon’s birthday and there was going to be a mandatory surprise party for him in the cafeteria. Presumably Elon also got this email, but whatever. We all marched down into the cafeteria, dimmed the lights, and waited. Elon was led out by his secretary (who he hadn’t fired yet) and made a big show of being fake surprised and touched that we were there. Then they wheeled out the cake.
OK, so, I want you to imagine the biggest penis cake you’ve ever seen. Like the king of novelty sex cakes. Only it’s frosted white, and the balls have been frosted to look like fire and smoke. This was Elon’s birthday “rocket” cake.
For as long as I live, I will never forget the look on everyone’s face — in that dark room of mostly-male engineers — when he made a wish and cut into the tip.
