It would probably have done a better job for the cybertruck.

He probably thinks his robots can do all the work, another thing prophesied by The Simpsons.

Literally what he did with the cars. “If we don’t put good technology in them we don’t have to pay for anything!”.

At this point I think Elon might know more about management than anyone currently alive on Earth!
Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
He does! Just ask him.

What the fuck is going on at this company
Dudewitbow@lemmy.zip 6 months ago
the cancellation of the model 2 for the cybertruck may have been the worst possible decision tesla went through maybe.

Not as bad as choosing not to use lidar for their automated driving, but pretty close.

CEO with a good complex and the drug habits to fuel it

He needs more money to pay for Elon Island.

Elon Musk and a board of directors that are controlled by Elon Musk.

The bubble is bursting.
Competition caught up with Tesla’s lead while Elon was too busy with his many side projects while somehow also micro-managing the company to death (e.g. Cybertruck).
He should have focused on scaling up manufacturing and driving the price per car down. But no, he had to chase the self-driving pipedream, launch a ridiculous pickup truck, and wreck the “genius” person he had built to replace with an alt-right one.
Mirshe@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Pretty much this. Elon was never interested in what he SHOULD HAVE BEEN: making an inexpensive electric vehicle that’s widely available. Tesla had the tech to do so, but they were being driven to make insane decisions like moving the gearshift to a touchscreen (gee, I love taking my eyes off the road to shift gears), or making “futuristic” doors that actually cannot physically open from the inside (whoops, guess those just can’t be recalled since DOT has literally no teeth).

Two words: Elon Musk.

I really can’t wait for the day, when news about this clown just end. Everything he touches turns into garbage
Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
I wouldn’t hold your breath. His worth could be decimated 50 times over and he would still be worth a billion dollars. He has enough money and will to influence politics and has a weird fan base to boot. Also, for someone who claims to be an autistic person who dislikes people, he sure seems to be a massive attention whore.
I don’t foresee him fading into obscurity anytime soon, unfortunately.
runeko@programming.dev 6 months ago
Upvote for using decimated correctly and also being spot on with the math. Made me completely forget about what an ass-hat Musk is for a short time.

You can still crave attention from people you would never interact with in person
ChapulinColorado@lemmy.world 6 months ago
The sad part is that I put my phone down for a minute to do some chores. Picked it up and for a second thought this was a different article about a different narcissistic clown that is currently on the news a lot as well.
dinckelman@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Two shit stains from the same asshole. Corporate America produces irredeemable trash
admin@lemmy.my-box.dev 6 months ago
Tell me about it.
I subscribed here to get tech news, but it seems like every other article is business news.
Thorny_Insight@lemm.ee 6 months ago
It’s the same as with Trump. The only reason you keep seeing these articles is because of the haters who can’t stop talking about him. It’s recreational outrage, pure and simple. There’s zero “fanboys” posting articles about Elon or Tesla here. All of it is coming from the people that have the obsession to constantly feed their chronic anger by reading articles that piss them off.
Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
There’s zero “fanboys” posting articles about Elon or Tesla here.
Granted, it’s much worse on Reddit, but there are plenty of fanboys around here.
frezik@midwest.social 6 months ago
Nah, ignoring them doesn’t work past a certain point. If it did, it would have worked with Internet trolls back in the 90s.
You don’t want to give small time versions of Musk or Trump a platform. That’s when ignoring them works. Weird ass flat earther channel with 12 subscribers? Maybe don’t post them on Xhitter as outrage porn; just let it be. Once they have a hundred thousand subscribers, though, you can no longer ignore them and hope they go away. If you try, they will yell louder.

Its not like HR has been doing its job to begin with.
ikidd@lemmy.world 6 months ago
What do you think HRs job is? To protect the employee?
KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml 6 months ago
Protecting the company bottom line is hard when you are bleeding employees and you can’t even replace them
DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 6 months ago
The question is whether she resigned or was fired as well. Her job was to protect the company, which includes not firing productive staff.
Bonehead@kbin.social 6 months ago
Always remember...layoffs come in 2 waves. The first wave is involuntary. The second wave is voluntary, as the people with talent see the handwriting on the wall and jump ship.
Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
I think of it as a subscription service… managers shouldn’t remind employees on the deals of their labor subscription. Because they could easily look at the market and decide to cancel for a more favorable labor subscription deal.

Soon they will replace them with robots writing on the wall.
