Chaos is a ladder

Well, you should consider that they plan to spend ALL of that cash on hand, PLUS the amount they have to borrow. And they plan to spend all of that in 2026. Their capex expenditures are planned to exceed their estimated operating cash flow.

100 year bonds to finance purchase of GPUs that fully depreciate in 5 years?

Well, they could pay people to take their cars. Would that be less than 0?

Thanks to the KKK, I assume.

I’m no Musk apologist, but this statement is nowhere close to being true.

I view the patent process as furthering the ability of others to benefit from the results: without patents, the only way to keep clones of your product from immediately appearing on the market is obfuscation and trade secrets. Patents grant a limited monopoly, but at the price of full disclosure. That full disclosure serves a useful social benefit as others can learn and innovate on what was done before. The limited monopoly encourages innovation because it helps people get exclusive rights to sell their work.

There’s a lot of bad patent behavior with patent trolls, etc. The duration of the patents should be relatively short and not extensible. But I think the disclosure aspect of the patent process does further overall innovation.

I’d like to get back to ‘for limited time’. Patents 10 years, no extensions. Copyright, 10 years, no extensions. Trademarks indefinite as long as the owner still has a meaningful business still operating and using the trademark ( this one is tricky to define well).
