So Jensen has gone. I feel there's a bigger truth beneath the individual. Those who have success, power, money, fame at such large scale inevitably become divorced from reality. Their bubble insulates them from their actions.

We see it with politicians and it's why countries often have a prohibition on PMs/Presidents having more than a certain number of years. Put yourself in such a position and most people will lose the plot after a few years, divorced from the reality of ordinary people.

Looks like a great car and proves beyond doubt that long distance EV driving is easy. Iβve done Kent to Scotland in my EV, with just a single 20min charging stop. Easy.
The new BMW i3 just proved how efficient an EV can be after a nearly 3,700-mile road trip electrek.co/2026/11/10/bmw-i⦠by @EVPeteJohnson

Solar power is booming in Africa. Imports of solar panels into most of the continent have almost tripled in the last two years, while Morroco has recently doubled its manufacture of them. The result is to greatly increase electric power capacity.

Well we know that nitrates are carcinogenic. I bought some nitrate-free bacon the other week, it tasted great. I see no downside. Better food that doesnβt kill us, whatβs not to like?
Andy Burnham will soon strike a major new food and drink deal with Brussels that means the Great British breakfast will never be quite the same again.
To meet the terms of the Prime Ministerβs new deal, British law will have to be changed to match European rules on food and plants, with farmers and producers in some cases having to alter their methods, which could push up prices ‡οΈ

The externalities of fossil fuel. Nuclear is even worse. Subsidies for energy are complex and widespread across all sources of production.
The Government already carries significant exposure for North Sea decommissioning, Β£11 billion of a Β£43 billion industry clean up through historical tax relief and operator of last resort.

1 million views in 4 hours is a record for me. Thank you all for sharing and commenting. I had a blast making this one, felt giddy and enjoyed every minute of it. Remember this is still scripted by me not ai, each video edit is still intentionally made by a human, the world was carefully constructed, researched and designed by me with ai tools but itβs not pressing a button. We see tons of AI automated slop βvideoβ every day on these platforms so I appreciate people recognizing the human touch.
Cybertruck manufacturing winding down. Not really a surprise - pair aggressive and polarising styling with Musk's political activities and you have a perfect storm. It's distinctiveness made it an effective ad for his opinions that not enough buyers could stomach.

I do think itβs a really positive sign that Musk spent so much money in Texas, yet his team still lost. Not so much because of the politics, but because itβs a sign that the electorate cannot be bought. Politicians need to win on ideas, not cash.

I remember when people used to complain that EVs were so expensive. This rather sharp-looking hatch with a decent range is only Β£18.5k.
