The smell around Tesla is getting weirder.

US enquiry to probe suspicions that Tesla’s autopilot is designed to auto-quit when a crash is imminent… so that the driver is liable on the moment of impact - and Tesla’s system escapes scrutiny or bad stats. fortune.com/2022/06/10/elo…
Since this blew up, and I don’t have a soundcloud, why not plug into this:

The @blackinxnetwork is a great place to connect with Black and brown peeps across loads of different scientific, academic, and industrial spaces. It’s also home to THE coolest nerd-fuel. 🔥🏆👏
And mad props as ever to @That_Astro_Chic, @CheyennePolius and the #blackinastro posse for all the nerd (rocket) fuel over the years. 🏆🚀🧠👏

@IanDunt 100% that. I once had to get some copy out of him and it became clear during the dribbled excuses & telephonic Lorem Ipsum that ensued that month that he had no object permanence. The brain area that helps most of us think about absent, potential or future things is… missing.
@IanDunt He would lie, and being told he was on speaker with me and my editor, would lie again, in the same way as a toddler will lie about not having the biscuit it has in its hand at that very moment. It was like trying to coach custard towards GCSE Maths.
@IanDunt The privilege has always meant that his polystyrene-packing level, stupidity was masked, excused, camouflaged. People thought, ‘He just doesn’t care, like Rochester!’ In fact, he just doesn’t know, like algae.

Sad thought this morning. One of the last things I did in London before the first lockdown was watch Tom Stoppard’s play ‘Leopoldstadt’ at the theatre.

The play was funny, sad, very good; it drifted a little in parts, but you always knew. These people are heading into darkness.
Then there was the end.

The characters from earlier scenes, all on stage, as if in a photo. A roll-call as someone remembered them, and what became of them. The repetition of ‘Auschwitz’. Like a drumbeat. It was devastating. And the lights went out.
I was just thinking today, about that moment two years ago.

It was the last couple of nights anything were on in London. Lots of older people in the audience who may not be here now.

The play was one of those that keeps coming back. It surfaces for me more now than it did then.
