Elon Musk has had inappropriate relationships with SpaceX employees. Tesla shareholders knew that, and chose to reward him with a massive payday anyway.
@wsj's @joe_palazzolo and @Verge’s @andyjayhawk explain.

This story was *a blast* to report. A few s/o's: @andyjayhawk for looping me into Montclair; Brittainy and Anthony for amazing art; Hilary Howard for swift/great edits; Chris Roberti for PS 110 and Emily Stutts for Bergen; and all the families that I spoke to.
Also: bikes.

This piece captures something really important: The Biden administration genuinely thinks doing the coin hurts them more than doing what they are currently doing. They are wrong about that. Shitposters and suburban moms alike will be thrilled.

Loved hanging out in Red Hook, BK for this story about how the community built a disaster-proof mesh wi-fi network that survived hurricane Sandy but is in limbo today. Like many swells of support after a crisis, aid dried up as quickly as it materialized theverge.com/c/features/2370…

the fact we’re about to accept the Ram REV’s 229 kWh battery for 500 miles of range tells me we have completely lost the plot of electrification.
