Tesla’s vision for the Robotaxi fleet has always been to revolutionize the way vehicle ownership is perceived. Tesla owners would eventually be able to let their car run an entire shift of ride-hailing without the presence of a driver, letting a $40,000 side-hustle compile an additional American base salary all while you sleep. In the past, Tesla has had lofty expectations for the Robotaxi fleet , but the timelines have commonly fallen short as the automaker has not been able to solve the

Finding Free Is the Key To Low-Cost EVing. I’m not sure why, but my news feed seems to be full of stories about how it’s often more expensive to charge an EV than one thinks, often times costing more than the gas equivalent vehicle. Why this is, I have no clue, but there are lots of these stories floating around. While in some cases it’s actually true (the most expensive of charge points vs. the most efficient of internal combustion cars, like my 2008 MINI Cooper Clubman that often gets almost 4

If you’ve got an idea for a business or a new product, you usually don’t have to wait a decade to make sure it’s worth doing. For most of the 10 years that I idly thought about thermostats, I had no intention of building one. It was the early 2000s, and I was at Apple making the first iPhone.
