    The Perils of Shorting: A Real Life Example

    Autopilot was nerfed due to EU regulations last year, which actually makes it less capable but it still works well in Ireland and can be activated anywhere where the car can see the lanes.

    The Perils of Shorting: A Real Life Example

    Stop signs and traffic lights are now visible in the car, so there's some progress. Autopilot is engaged not only on motorways, but also works great on twisty Irish roads in the dark.

    The Perils of Shorting: A Real Life Example

    If you only view Tesla as a car company, you're only seeing part of the picture. I think most analysts don't consider the energy storage side and solar roofs, which could be huge in the future. Long TSLA and also a Tesla owner.

    De Giro broker

    I've had no issues so far after being with them for about 6 months. I think the probability of any issues due to share lending is very small. If word gets out that investors are losing their shares, I bet DeGiro would lose a lot of customers very quickly. Therefore, if it sometimes does happen...

    Camera or camcorder?

    The Kodak zi8 seems like a great camera at a good price but ideally I would like more pixels. How many hours do you get from the battery? Are there any similar cameras with more megapixels? Can you shoot video with your dSLR camera?

    Camera or camcorder?

    I'm looking for something that enables me to shoot small movies for fun and maybe podcasting. Nothing too serious. Should I go for a camera or a camcorder? Any recommendations? I have a 5 MP camera that can shoot 640x480 pixels, which is bearable but not great, so it may be a good idea to...
