  • This is backed by evidence.

    After WW2 there was a lot of research about weather people knew or didn’t. Basically the conclusion was: people knew. They actively decided to either ignore it („not my department“), deny it („it’s all lies, the scent is just $foo burning“) or justify it („they deserved it“).

    But people knew.













  • Tesla cars are a mixed bag (for Europeans, at least).

    The software is good (although it got worse, many things now require multiple touches, which is really bad when driving), and it is better than every other brand I know.

    But a lot of other aspects are suboptimal. E.g. the insulation is sub-par, resulting in more noise. The assistance systems are really bad, the car tried to kill me multiple times on the Autobahn. The cameras are bad when it’s dark outside, often I have to guess what I see in the rear camera when parking. The placement of the rear camera leads to dirt on it, I have to clean it every day to be able to use it. Etc, pp.

    Nothing is so bad that I would advise against a Tesla, but these are many small paper cuts I was not used to in other brands.

    That said: don’t buy a Tesla. Musk is a Nazi. Don’t support Nazis, punch them.

    Edit: didn’t notice the train joke. Nice, you got me ;-)
