I've always thought more money and time should be spent teaching people how to drive a car. Instead of figuring out the best way to crash a car.

I remember reading an article years ago saying that they had given up on trying to make people better drivers, and it was going to cost less in the long run maker the vehicles safer and have more control over what the vehicle can do.

What would be the best way to teach people not to drive drunk or text? Or do things like this....

Chevrolet Silverado EV Global Debut at CES 2022​

Autosphere » Fleet » Chevrolet Silverado EV Global Debut at CES 2022

Chevrolet will debut the all-electric Silverado at CES 2022, one of the world’s most influential technology events.


The reveal will take place during the opening keynote delivered by General Motors Chair and CEO Mary Barra on Wednesday, Jan. 5, 2022.

The brand also confirmed the Silverado electric pickup will feature an available fixed-glass roof for retail models, segment-leading for size, offering expansive visibility, increased headroom, and an enhanced experience of spaciousness for both front and rear passengers.

This is the first application of an available fixed-glass roof on a GM pickup in the full-size truck segment.

Designed as an EV from the ground up, the Silverado EV harnesses the best of the Ultium Platform and Silverado’s proven capability.

The fleet and retail versions of the electric Silverado will offer customers a variety of options and are expected to be in high demand.

In addition to the fixed-glass roof, Chevrolet has confirmed the availability of Four-Wheel Steer, a chassis feature that enables the vehicle to steer all four wheels.

The electric Silverado will offer customers a GM-estimated range up to 640 km on a full charge.

Well, you can’t buy a house, new undies or a tank of gas with stocks.
True. Thats why when i hear online that musk made 30zillion dollars yesterday, i take that with a grain of salt.

Dude has some massive ambitions. It's no longer about making money, it's all about leaving behind a legacy. He's all about getting humanity to the moon before he dies. Everything his companies are doing has some part in making that dream a reality.

Guys like Elon don't work that way, he could have retired very comfortably after the sale of PayPal, instead he started SpaceX and Tesla.

Elon can be quoted multiple times stated he wished he had never took Tesla public, because now he is responsible to share holders instead of leading the company where he wants. It's that reason that I believe it unlikely that SpaceX becomes publicly traded.
