You don't fear their control because you have nothing to hide. Then one day you want to speak up against them, but you don't because they control your money. So you never cross them. But one day, they seek you out and order you to do something. You have to comply because they own you.

If you control your money, it's your money. If they control the money, it's their money -- you only have it as long as they let you.

The guardian is constantly negative. It's like their job is to attack and discredit people and institutions they don't like. Often based on insinuations or flimsy or no evidence.

More knowledge and less lobbying please.

Most companies struggle to build well understood products like apps and web sites. The leadership of most organizations is unable to organize the relevant work because they don't know anything about such products. If a company struggles to build an app, a product like an EV is a major undertaking.

Can anyone explain how Tesla can be valued so high?

They're valued twice as high as Toyota at around 1/12 the profits of Toyota. P/E is almost 600 so they'd have to overtake Toyota's profits by a significant margin to justify their valuation.

So far this looks like pure hype.

However... they are way ahead in terms of technology in a number of areas and I guess they could also make money from things like their super charger network and batteries?

So maybe they're better positioned for the future / more diversified than Toyota and therefore have greater potential?

Can't say that I blame anyone. If it wasn't profitable there isn't much to do. Perhaps communication could have been better? Don't know.

1. More and more people are getting degrees, making them less of a differentiator.

2. Knowledge is more and more readily available and is not limited to degree holders.

3. Politics is infecting universities with propaganda.

4. Universities are coming up with useless degrees in order to attract students.

5. Universities focus too much on degrees and grades and not enough on knowledge.

You missed the point. While the entire thread talk about how people can easily accuse others on the internet without evidence, someone posts a link containing accusations and we're supposed to automatically assume it's true.

But hey, now some guy on hacker news says his friend witnessed it...
