My family doctor has a tech in-house who works with neuro-diverse people and people with brain injuries to help stimulate neuron movement with quick bursts of electric impulses. Not quite the old, scary ECT. Apparently there’s a very good success rate.No implants required.
A California judge has ruled in favor of Black Tesla workers, allowing them to proceed with lawsuits against the company for racism in its factories. The ruling follows claims from employees alleging that Tesla failed to protect them from racism in the workplace. not surprised.
The number of people using X daily is falling, more than a year after tech billionaire Elon Musk bought the app formerly known as Twitter.
Data from two research firms and figures published by Musk and X suggest a deteriorating situation for X by some metrics. Musk has marketed it as the world’s “town square,” but in number of users it continues to lag far behind social media rivals that focus on video, such as Instagram and TikTok.
In February, X had 27 million daily active users of its mobile app in the U.S., down 18% from a year earlier, according to Sensor Tower, a market intelligence firm based in San Francisco. The U.S. user base has been flat or down every month since November 2022, the first full month of Musk’s owning the app, and in total it’s down 23% since then, Sensor Tower said.
Like, I'm starting to think something is seriously wrong with Musk. His actions at Twitter have made very little business sense, as I've frequently noted, but Tesla was successfully making real products people wanted to buy. I can't imagine it could have been as successful as it has been if Musk had been acting like this in the past. Maybe his actions at Twitter haven't been anomaly, but a sign of a general deterioration in his decision making?

I hadn't heard about this before, but it seems kind of nutso. Why would you fire the entire team responsible for maybe the most critical technology regarding EV success? Not just for Tesla but for all EV's.
When you make a move that baffles all of the outside observers, it doesn't leave the guy making the move with much credibility.
Then again, maybe Elon is playing eleventy-dimensional chess against us mere mortals,

This is literally how Musk went in and hacked away at the workforce at the Twitter. People were fired, without regard to whether what they were doing for the company was going to be covered by someone else. There were internal systems and customer contacts for which nobody else was prepared to take over.
Speaking of Elon Musk, you might be curious to see what’s happening in the real world of brain chip development (the Neuralink project):
