“I had to intervene to prevent a crash!”
Watch @Tesla self-driving v14 drive into a roundabout with a car approaching, forcing the driver to slam the brakes to prevent a collision!
@ElonMusk your defective software almost caused yet another crash. FSD should be banned.
Tesla Q1 deliveries noch unter dem pessimistischen Expertenkonsens, aber noch übler: Hoffnungsschimmer Energy Deployment waren 14,4 TWh erwartet worden, nun waren es nur 8,8 TWh.
It's not a car company, aber offenbar ist es auch keine besonders gut laufende Energy company?
This is a truly incredible shot, especially given that the NASA live feed chose to show video of the cheering crowd right at the exact moment of solid rocket booster separation…
Tesla only managed to grow 6% y-o-y compared to Q1 2025, when it literally shut down all its factories for the Model Y refresh.
This is bad. 50,000 vehicles were overproduced in Q1.
Also energy storage expectations were missed by 40%, but I think wall street sucks at estimating Tesla's energy deployment.

I find it weird that Elon didn't mention NASA's Artemis II mission at all, despite posting quite a lot on other topics.
He keeps saying space exploration is super-important to him. So does he really care about human missions to space, or is it only when it's a SpaceX program?

Germany is about to make yet another irreversible energy decision at Hambach that goes far beyond land restoration. It cuts directly into the country’s long term energy security.
The Hambach open pit mine in North Rhine Westphalia is one of the largest lignite reserves in Europe.
Beneath it sits well over 1 billion tonnes of extractable lignite, part of a broader basin that has powered German industry for decades.
At peak operation, Hambach and the surrounding Rhineland mines supplied a significant share of Germany’s baseload electricity, with lignite alone historically contributing 20 to 25% of national power generation.
From 2030, the plan is to flood the mine using water diverted from the Rhine, gradually creating an artificial lake reaching depths of 300 to 360 meters.
This is not a surface level transformation. It will submerge the entire excavation zone, including remaining coal seams that extend deep into the basin.
Once filled, the hydrostatic pressure, water infiltration, and structural destabilization of the mine walls will make any future extraction technically unviable and economically irrational.
In practical terms, this means that hundreds of millions to over a billion tonnes of lignite will be permanently locked away.
Even if future governments wanted to reverse course, draining a lake of this scale, stabilizing the geology, and rebuilding mining infrastructure would take decades and tens of billions in cost. It is, for all intents and purposes, a one way decision.
This is what makes Hambach different.
It is not a transition. It is a deliberate removal of optionality.
And it comes after a series of compounding policy choices that have already weakened Germany’s energy system.
Over the past decade, the country has:-
• Shut down the majority of its nuclear power plants, removing stable, zero carbon baseload capacity
• Decommissioned modern coal facilities, including plants that were operating at high efficiency
• Increased dependence on imported energy while reducing domestic production buffers
The consequences of this are no longer theoretical. They have already played out twice in rapid succession.
In 2022, the Russia Ukraine conflict exposed Germany’s dependence on external gas supplies, triggering the most severe energy crisis in decades.
Now, just a few years later, the ongoing Middle East conflict has pushed fuel prices up by 30% and natural gas prices up by 25 to 30% in a matter of weeks.
What these shocks reveal is not just vulnerability, but the absence of fallback capacity.
This is where Hambach becomes critical.
Instead of preserving a strategic domestic reserve exceeding 1 billion tonnes, Germany is choosing to eliminate it at a time when global energy markets are becoming more volatile and politically constrained.
The contrast with other major economies is stark.
China and India continue to expand their energy systems by layering renewables on top of existing fossil capacity.
Together, they consume over 3 billion tonnes of coal annually, ensuring that their grids remain stable even under extreme demand or supply disruptions. Their approach is additive.
Germany’s has been subtractive. A sure shot losing bet.
And the economic impact is now visible across multiple dimensions:-
• Electricity prices for households are 2× higher than France
• Industrial power costs reached €0.14 per kWh, forcing €4.5 billion in subsidies
• Germany increasingly imports nuclear power from France and coal generated electricity from Poland
• Domestic baseload capacity continues to shrink while demand remains industrially high
What Hambach represents is not just an environmental project. It is the final step in removing one of the last large scale domestic energy buffers Germany still possesses.
Because once flooded:-
• 1 billion tonnes of lignite becomes inaccessible
• Recovery would require decades and tens of billions in reinvestment
• Germany loses a critical emergency energy reserve permanently
• Future policy flexibility is eliminated
At the same time:-
• Global energy demand continues to rise
• Geopolitical risks around supply chains are increasing
• Competing economies are expanding, not reducing, their energy base
Energy systems are not built for ideal conditions. They are built for stress scenarios.
Germany has now faced two major shocks in under five years. In both cases, reduced domestic capacity translated directly into higher prices, subsidies, and economic strain.
Hambach removes the ability to respond differently the next time.
And that is the core issue.
There is no precedent for a major industrial economy maintaining competitiveness with constrained, expensive, and externally dependent energy.
Every historical and modern example points in the opposite direction.
Flooding Hambach is not just about a lake.
It is about permanently giving up a billion tonne energy reserve in an increasingly uncertain world.

Ich wette, dass in zehn Jahren dort kein CSD mehr stattfinden wird (aus kultureller Rücksichtnahme), die Schulen atavistische Kultureinrichtungen sein werden und verpeilte Linke weitere zehn Jahre später wie aufgewachte Dummköpfe vor dem Scherbenhaufen stehen und sich wundern, nur um danach zu begründen, warum das alles richtig ist - kurz bevor sie konvertieren.

Wozu so viele Raketenstarts?
Als einfacher Kaufmann finde ich das Strommarktdesign schon lustig.
Da backst du Brötchen für die Firmenfeier, Terminvertrag vor nem Jahr gemacht.
Am Auslieferungstag kommt der konkurrierende Langschläfer-Bäcker ausm Nachbardorf um die Ecke weil er Mehl im Angebot gefunden hat und backen kann. Der hat "Einspeisevorrang", bekommt auch Geld obwohl er nix für den Auftrag vorbereitet hat. Du wirst immerhin entschädigt.
Nachmittags hat er keine Lust und legt sich wieder schlafen, dann bist du wieder gut genug um noch schnell Redispatchteiglinge ausm Ofen zu holen.
Ach ja dein Ofen darf nicht mit Atomstrom laufen. Aber importierte Atomstrombrötchen sind schon erlaubt und konkurrieren mit dir.
Montag dann, der faule Bäcker steht noch mal auf und backt zu viel. Die Brötchen werden zusammen mit Geld in ne Tüte gepackt und nach Frankreich geschickt. Typ legt sich wieder schlafen. Abends hat sein Laden zu.
Völlig normal.

Yup, I totally trust her to takeover in time if FSD screws up while she's enjoying her gelato.
Absolute Madness!!!!
I'll wager everything I have that this Tesla tweet will end up as evidence in a court case about a Tesla FSD crash at some point. A plaintiff's attorney will hold it up and say: "Tesla's own official account promoted a testimonial from a vision-impaired buyer who purchased the vehicle specifically because he believed FSD could drive for him — and Tesla amplified that message to millions."
This is reaching genuinely dangerous levels. Consider the chain of events that Tesla just endorsed: an ophthalmologist is allegedly recommending Tesla FSD to a patient who is losing his eyesight, that patient follows the recommendation, buys a Cybertruck specifically for the software, proudly tells on camera that FSD drove for an hour and a half while he never touched the wheel, and Tesla's official account promotes this as a feel-good customer story.
All while Tesla's own documentation says FSD is a Level 2 driver-assist system that requires a fully attentive driver who is "responsible for the vehicle at all times." All while NHTSA is running three concurrent investigations into FSD safety. All while we've documented how even autonomous driving experts get dangerously complacent behind the wheel of a Tesla on FSD.
If Tesla genuinely believes FSD is safe enough for someone with failing eyesight to rely on, then it should classify FSD as Level 3 or higher and accept the liability that comes with it. But Tesla won't do that, because Level 2 lets it keep the marketing upside while pushing all the risk onto the driver. Promoting this video while maintaining that legal position is madness.
It's true that FSD can now drive a few hours, a few hundred miles, even a few thousand miles without critical intervention, but that's nowhere near what you need to be reliable enough for level 4 autonomy. What happens when that critical intervention is needed in a couple of thousand miles, and the driver is not capable of taking over?
The dangerous thing now is that you can clearly see the pervasive idea that FSD is more than a driver-assist system is embedded in the Tesla community. The ophthalmologist might know eyes and might be a Tesla owner, but it doesn't mean he has a good grasp of the capabilities of FSD and Tesla promoting the use of FSD for people losing their eyesight is not helping.

François Chollet just released ARC-AGI-3 -- the hardest AI test ever created.
135 novel game environments. No instructions. No rules. No goals given.
Figure it out or fail.
Untrained humans solved every single one. Every frontier AI model scored below 1%.
Each environment was handcrafted by game designers. The AI gets dropped in and has to explore, discover what winning looks like, and adapt in real time.
The scoring punishes brute force. If a human needs 10 actions and the AI needs 100, the AI doesn't get 10%. It gets 1%. You can't throw more compute at this.
For context: ARC-AGI-1 is basically solved. Gemini scores 98% on it. ARC-AGI-2 went from 3% to 77% in under a year. Labs spent millions training on earlier versions.
ARC-AGI-3 resets the entire scoreboard to near zero.
The benchmark launched live at Y Combinator with a fireside between Chollet and Sam Altman.
$2M in prizes on Kaggle. All winning solutions must be open-sourced.
Scaling alone will not close this gap. We are nowhere near AGI.

⚠️ In Kanada wird Sterbehilfe (MAID) schon bei einem einfachen Kreuzbeinbruch angeboten!
Die 84-jährige Miriam Lancaster kommt April 2025 mit Rückenschmerzen in die Notaufnahme.
Der Arzt: „Wir können Ihnen MAID anbieten.“
Sie sagte NEIN.
Nach nur einem Monat Reha war sie wieder voll mobil.
Im Februar 2026 bestieg sie den Pacaya-Vulkan in Guatemala.
Heute macht MAID bereits 4,7 % aller Todesfälle in Kanada aus. (Zahl aus 2023)
Als ich diese Zahl gehört hatte, musste ich schlucken. Das ist doch nicht mehr normal! Und so aktuell sind die Zahlen auch nicht. Es ist zwischenzeitlich bestimmt nicht besser geworden, sondern noch viel schlimmer!
Statt echter Hilfe: Tod auf Rezept.
Genau wie bei Noelia.
Wir müssen echt aufpassen, dass wir nicht auf diesen Zug aufspringen!
