    EV Charging Regulation the European Way

    And an example of US capitalism at its worst: Texas solar and wind are setting records, and the state’s grid can’t handle it Michelle Lewis | Jul 13 2023 - 11:52 am PT 25 Comments Texas solar and wind are going to double by 2035, but if the state’s grid isn’t upgraded, then all that power is...

    EV Charging Regulation the European Way

    I don't think that's correct. I think a majority of Americans believe that business competition results in the best product/service at the best price (efficiency) to benefit consumers and that government intervention is a impediment to that goal. European believe that businesses seek to...

    The US is now in recession

    I think the US is far more resilient than many believe. Too many talking heads spin data to score political points but it looks like the economy is rebounding nicely after the shock of COVID.

    San Francisco Has Fallen

    Btw, I am now in the Bay Area for a couple of weeks and expect to be in San Francisco a few times. I will have a chance to form my own opinion of the city's downfall. I spent years throughout my life in Oakland and have seen its evolution over the last 45 years. I have to admit that driving...

    San Francisco Has Fallen

    Housing isn't a right, healthcare is. All those vagrants with substance and/or mental issues should be managed by health authorities. The remaining should be temporarily housed and counseled on how to get work in areas of the state where income to rents are more manageable than the Bay Area or...

    Life after 50

    Not point finger at you in particular, but the handful of so called journalists trying to make a buck on Schwarzenegger Qanon hallucinations.

    Life after 50

    And why does it matter? Why the obsession over how he first made money? Sounds like some are jealous of his success and need to discredit him and his achievements. Arnold was and continues to represent the sane voice of the Republican party, a mix of social liberal and fiscal conservative...

    Tesla 2023

    This is an interesting phenomenon. For decades rebellious youth was primarily liberal and anti establishment. Committed activists fought oil pipelines, injustice and what nots, spray painting their anger anywhere they could, fighting the power. Today, the "fuck the system" crowd is going...

    Tesla 2023

    Recent share price is partly a result of this, although it's overblown in my opinion. The adoption of NACS ciments Tesla as a recognized actor in the automobile sector, something that so many shorts have worked hard to dismiss over the years. Tesla's gain is relatively minimal from electricity...

    Tesla 2023

    As I've said before, I'm conservatively going to stick to a 300 high in 2023 on the basis that quarterly results lead to wild swings up or down, but overall trend is growth of all activities under Tesla. The only business that has and can continue to negatively affect Tesla is Twitter and Musk...

    How do you explain US exceptionalism over the last 75 years?

    California removed affirmative action from college entry criteria decades ago, so it's a template of what is to come elsewhere in the country...

    Tesla 2023

    “I was the chief engineer of the Ford Fiesta for many years, and when I left it had been on sale for 22 years. In the good years it sold more than 500,000 units, but even in the good years it never made a profit. Margins at that end of the market are so, so small.”...

    I don't think you will get it with TSLA. May drop back to 250 (if that's "big"?) but every quarter it meets or beats targets justifies its value. We may even see 300 by Q3, earlier than I was expecting. Right now, end of year analysts expectation is 1.8M vehicles. If Q3 trends closer to 2M...

    Is it immoral to get a second job as a software developer?

    Again, it depends what your employment contract says and where you live. California is an "at will" state and theoretically an employer can fire you...at will, although in reality it's more complicated, as a highly litigious state with lots of labor lawyers at your disposal to fight for you in...
