Summary via ChatGPT

A Delaware judge invalidated Elon Musk's $56 billion Tesla pay package for a second time, citing undue influence and unfair terms set by Musk. Despite shareholder approval earlier this year, the court ruled the process failed to address governance concerns and transparency. The judge emphasized the board's failure to prove the compensation plan's fairness, suggesting alternative, reasonable payment options were possible. Tesla may appeal the decision or propose a new compensation plan.

No, it doesn't solve the wear problem, that's precisely my point. It moves it, and at a monetary cost.

Easy example of adding complexity to help meet a goal, geared turbofan engines. Simplicity and reduced short term cost? Antithetical. Long term costs thanks to efficiency savings? In spades.

I still see parroting of seeming truisms versus actual understanding on choices made, based on changes observed since the 70s onward. "Solid state always beats mechanical", for instance, something that _seemed_obvious in the 70s and 80s. This makes you out to be around what, 55 is my guess.

The tribal knowledge of implementation details have changed since the solid state revolution, some applications of solid state are still past the edge of solid state capabilities if your goal is cost reduction. That was Eberhard's intent, and what a geared motor would help solve, never mind the expected initially high costs.

How/what kind of motor is built dictates its favored unloaded RPM, haven't you seen exposed A/C motors spinning fans for e.g. pumps or Aircon condensors? 20k rpm as an argument?? Jesus. I read between the lines and see your actual understanding of the matters.

So listen, I'm not interested in converting a zealot. I personally also believe solid state is the way to go for controls and other parts of a system, but the difference between a junior and experienced engineer when it comes to production at international consumption levels is knowing what tools are appropriate, and where, in that system. A lot of the rest of your argument text is a red herring, I encourage you to reread it and discard it as I have.
