Tesla's senior vice president of powertrain and energy engineering, Drew Baglino, is leaving after 18 years at the auto-maker, he said in a post on social media site X on Monday. Tesla's vice president of public policy and business development, Rohan Patel, has also left the carmaker, according to a post on X by a Bloomberg News reporter.

18 years, that's crazy. his net worth is probably in the 9 figures. hard to feel sorry for him

what the fuck is he talking about

This guy is the dumbest motherfucker on earth pic.twitter.com/zhxfAHvqST

like he's invented a scenario in which AI is killing millions of people and the thing that terrifies him is that it'll kill too many white people

the ai designed and implemented a genetic engineering program so that now there are babbies with 13 or 14 or more fingers

Would be more forceful if the (correct) Elon critic wasn’t paying Elon for exposure.

Elon bought Twitter so he could essentially spend every day shouting via it, "I am the Emperor and I am naked as fuck"

lol @ the cybertruck message board there are so many damn issues with this thing

I don't think he is, a bunch of people got blue checks over the last couple weeks against their will

also one more thing that bothers me

https://i.imgur.com/kE5lGFn.png

"namespace" is a term which actually means something, anyone who's ever done any programming should be familiar with it, and he's using it to refer to the pool of available usernames on Twitter. like this comp sci shit is supposed to be one area he's actually competent in but all the evidence just points to him being a huge idiot there too. people are so eager to give him the benefit of the doubt because he's awkward and dorky, instead it's more like what if Sheldon from Bing Bong Theory was actually just a huge dumbass. I mean take it from me, I played Magic: the Gathering for 15 years, these people absolutely do exist. sometimes they have emerald mines and government contracts I guess.

bullies snatched my namespace

if only there was something that Elon Musk, owner, executive chairman, and CTO of X Corp, could do about these "bot armies"

pretty funny how he claimed he was buying twitter to get rid of the bots

“if i did it (that is, added more bots to twitter)”

he also claimed he was making a car where the steering wheel did not just whiff out the window when you are driving

a great yoke that doesnt fly off your hand

Great user names like Cindy0737396354

odd that he didnt understand that firing everyone would effect things like controlling spam, sure you can keep the core product running kind of ok but all the other stuff is going to massively suffer, and those things matter people dont want pussy in bio in their replies

what happened to his plan of charging all new users $1 to register?

xp He probably believed, and still believes, that the problem could be fixed easily by just writing the right magic code that will solve all the problems and Twitter employed all those humans because of woke or something. I’m surprised he isn’t babbling on now about how “AI” will fix everything.

He speaks like a midlevel manager who's picked up the latest buzzword round the conference table and starts using it every other sentence.

this giy is worth billions, this toilet gonna flush sooo long, or we can just say the serenity prayer for about 5 billion minutes

Another day, another cybertruck fail
"CT windshield did not withstand a freak sudden hailstorm in Austin, rest of vehicle seems fine. None of the other cars parked next to it had windshield damage but they had lots of dings in their body. Pretty disappointing, will let y’all know how much it costs to fix"

Truck seems to be entering the league of the Edsel and the Pinto in automotive legend

Wonder if flat shape and shallow angle makes it easier to break. Bad either way.

If that theory holds true, the good news would mean that it’s much more resistant to the more common occurrence of rock chips being kicked up from the road. Just bad for the small chance of things falling from the sky.

would be funny if this failed. unfortunately it probably won't

aww

“Because the Delaware Court second-guessed your decision, Elon has not been paid for any of his work for Tesla for the past six years that has helped to generate significant growth and stockholder value”

the cybertruck can withstand gunfire but not the car wash

$TSLA Cybertruck owners ..

1) do NOT wash your car in sunlight and

2) do NOT tell Tesla SCs that you drove it through a car wash (like this guy) even if you turned on Car Wash Mode. They will void your warranty. 💀 pic.twitter.com/eXpaxlm2X6

How is Tesla not getting class action sued into oblivion?

I guess more to follow…

yeah gotta think it coming

well, they are like school in summer tbh

What's a Tesla SC?

Service centre?

Ah, that makes sense. They also have Super Chargers, and I was pretty sure it wasn't that.

real $TSLA-heads pivoting to the LIVER KING lifestyle (never wash yr ass, never wash yr cybertruck)

lmao get em

Tesla should be renamed Douchewagon anyway, it would be more accurate.

Tesla’s stock tumbled below $150 per share, giving up all of the gains made over the past year as the electric vehicle maker reels from falling sales and steep discounts intended to lure more buyers.

Shares in the Elon Musk-owned company slid nearly 4% in intraday trading Thursday, in what what now stands as the third worst week for the stock in 2024, a year that has been dismal for Tesla investors. The Austin, Texas company’s shares are down 12.4% this week and more than 39% this year.

Shares of Tesla Inc. last traded for $150 in January 2023.

"don't wash your car in sunlight" is amazing

Does anyone know what types of damage might occur if I breathe on my Cybertruck wrong

amazing how Elon used to claim this thing could be used as a boat when it can't even survive the carwash

I wash my cy-ber-truck at night, so I can so I can

washing cybertruck at night, elon's delight
washing cybertruck in morning, owners take warning

lol

total recall

https://techcrunch.com/2024/04/19/tesla-cybertruck-throttle-accelerator-pedal-stuck/

Most ev makers do a lot of “recalls” but 90% of those are over the air software updates. This is different.

Makes sense, because those fuckin things look like one of the "Total Recall" Johnnycabs.

soap made the pedal fly off while youre driving

“an unapproved change introduced lubricant (soap) to aid in the component assembly of the pad onto the accelerator pedal,” and that “residual lubricant reduced the retention of the pad to the pedal.”

We used lubricant instead of glue to attach your accelerator. Oopsie!
