Elon Musk has announced the upcoming release of Tesla’s Full Self-Driving Beta 10.4 update as Tesla slows down the rollout.
Earlier this week, Tesla started rolling out Full Self-Driving Beta 10.3.
The update came after a false start last weekend when Tesla pushed the update with some problems and ended up reverting back to 10.2.
No. Eventually billionaires will run out of OUR money, NOT the other way around. I love the things and companies he’s created. I love the industries he’s revolutionized and the massive Kickstart he has given to our entire species and it’s extrasolar future. He is INARGUABLY a brilliant man. But he’s also a shitty human being. He’s like so many other brilliant people that enjoy public life and the sound of his own voice who can all too often forget that they are NOT experts in EVERYTHING ELSE just because experts on something else. Musk is just another example of that kind of ego overspill. It’s not the first time he’s done it, and it will NOT be the last or worst occurrence of… Let’s call it the “Big brain on Brad golden suitcase of indeterminate origin syndrome.”

Elon Musk is among those finding fault with a proposed annual tax on billionaires’ unrealized capital gains by Democratic lawmakers, with the world’s richest man agreeing with the view that this type of tax eventually would hit others as well.
Circa 2020 o.o Basically a molecular printer could make your own vaccine for any disease.
Tesla Inc is building mobile molecule printers to help make the potential COVID-19 vaccine being developed by CureVac in Germany, the electric-car maker’s Chief Executive Officer, Elon Musk, tweeted on Wednesday.
O,.o.
A Canadian aerospace company has chosen an eyebrow-raising name for a hypersonic space plane it plans to launch in 2022: “Sexbomb.”
Space Engine Systems (SES) announced that it wants to launch the, uh, Sexbomb in Manitoba, according to a press release from the company. The vehicle will be used to test the company’s spacecraft engine prototype.
Of course, you might be wondering what’s with the name. Perhaps it was inspired by Tom Jones 0 or maybe the employees are all just huge Scott Pilgrim fans. Or, more realistically, maybe it’s just a grabby name from Elon Musk’s meme marketing playbook.
Tesla’s Autopilot and Full Self-Driving Beta are, at their core, safety systems. They may be advanced enough to make driving tasks extremely easy and convenient, but ultimately, CEO Elon Musk has been consistent with the idea that Tesla’s advanced driver-assist technologies are being developed to make the world’s roads as safe as possible.
This is something that seems to be happening now among some members of the FSD Beta group, which is currently being expanded even to drivers with a Safety Score of 99. As the company expands its fleet of vehicles that are equipped with FSD beta, some testers have started sharing stories about how the advanced driver-assist system helped them avoid potential accidents on the road.
FSD Beta tester @FrenchieEAP, for example, recently shared a story about a moment when his Model 3 was sitting at a red light with the Full Self-Driving Beta engaged. When the light turned green, the all-electric sedan started moving forward — before braking suddenly. The driver initially thought that the FSD Beta was stopping for no reason, but a second later, the Model 3 owner realized that a cyclist had actually jumped a red light. The FSD Beta just saw the cyclist before he did.
Starship will be ready for its orbital launch next month, pending regulatory approval — Elon Musk.
SpaceX’s Starship rocket is still being built in southeast Texas, with significant work being made on crucial parts like the launch tower construction and the installation of the vacuum-rated Raptor engines that will power the spacecraft once it reaches space.
Elon Musk claims that it might be ready for its maiden orbital flight attempt next month if it receives the necessary regulatory approvals.
To make the effort, SpaceX will need clearance from the United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), as it has for all of its previous test flights of Starship from its development facility outside of Brownsville, Texas.
Elon Musk has built two industrial behemoths— Tesla and SpaceX—revolutionizing two industries along the way. But that’s not all he has done to change global industry.
Musk has also given manufacturing companies a new word: gigafactory.
The practical definition of a gigafactory is a larger, modern manufacturing facility for products that are designed to lower global carbon emissions.
