alt Hacker NewsMate I just watched a car drive upside down on the ceiling and then fly.
This attitude reminds me of the NASAbros who insisted rockets couldn't be made reusable, and the only option was to throw away your $50b rocket every time you launch. For decades they blew up trillions of dollars in rockets, insisting that it had to be done that way. It didn't, it turns out you can just reuse them.
Rockets, cool.
Teslas can’t drive themselves, you can’t lease out your Model 3 as an autonomous taxi. The Cybertruck isn’t bulletproof, doesn’t have a 500mi range and it didn’t launch for under $40k. You can’t do a 90-second battery swap on any Tesla.
Yes, we all saw what looked like a car do a flip. But judge Tesla on their actions, not dumbass statements Elon makes on a stage.
