Damn it, you're finally right! Tesla is losing market share...:( Yes, Tesla is selling more EVs in the US than the next 9 competitors combined so far this year (again). From James Stevenson on YouTube

You're putting everything in a basket and decided it's naive hypocrisy. We're talking energy supply and you switch to tuna and makeup. Got an issue with women? I know how obtuse you are when it comes to renewables. If only you spent time reading on advances in the field, both present and...

I and many in the renewable energy world put nuclear as a green energy. Much more can be done to further process nuclear beyond present use. Yes, it's more dangerous than wind and solar but doesn't pollute like coal and gas. As previously discussed, there are many smaller countries today that...

I was expecting you sooner on this thread to repeat your mantra. I'm afraid you will be the one changing your tune before I do. Coal is on its way out in the US and it ain't coming back. "Low gas prices have squeezed US coal demand more than any other factor. In 2009, coal’s share in the US...

However flawed I find GM and Ford, I do hope they can transform into viable EV manufacturers. I've said it several times before, at this stage the war is between ICE and EV tech. EV must win regardless of the brand. If we consider how difficult it has been and continues to be to end the use...

Nah, sink the ship in high seas and call it Act of God!

Yes, yes... There are a number of new battery tech being developed, all very promising. But, as Elon Musk likes to say, prototyping is easy, mass production is hard. The next level mass produced EV batteries aren't expected for another 10 years and I'd bet Tesla is keeping abreast of the...

Now he's got to worry about the guys he stole from.

You hope that many other brokerages go belly up, in which case the government will bail you out.

I lost sight of this guy but, by incredible coincidence, I was in a lawyer's office in Paris maybe 10 years later to discuss a business idea when his phone rang. He picked up and started talking to this person who he seemed to know quite well. When he addressed him by his first name I...

In a lot of these countries ethical conduct is subjective. Unemployment is high, opportunities to be financially successful are low. Everyone is an idiot or a fool, except for those who beat the system. The big fish have no difficulties finding little people to do the scamming. The returns...

Many years ago I met a guy whose entire existence was getting rich quick schemes. He lived a bling bling lifestyle in Paris, lived at a nice address, drove the latest Mustang (rare in Paris), ate at the best restaurants, had suitcases full of cash... The stereotype. Everything he did was on the...

Remember, on several occasions Musk has said he doesn't need government incentives to run a successful business but if there are to be, then Tesla should also get them.

Tesla has become superstars at building factories in less time than anyone, and that's entirely driven by Elon Musk.

I'm surprised by how nonchalant and pragmatic people in Taiwan are. I recently had lunch with cousins of my wife who still live in Taiwan and they reacted the same way you do. They've pretty much internalized that if China wants to take Taiwan it will just happen. Taiwan defense forces will...

Yeah I don't know what a stepper is either. I just suspect it can be dismantled in small enough components to fit in military cargo planes.

It wouldn't work that way. The strategic parts of the factory would be dismantled and flown out by military cargo well in advance of an expected shipping blockade and no one will know. That will also be when "in the know" Taiwanese will start leaving the country for Australia, Canada and the...

No no... It takes many weeks to prepare for an invasion and preparations will be obvious TSMC will move out the key components early enough to avoid the blockade and blow up the rest
