’Twas the night before Cybercab launch, and all through downtown A gold two-seater sat gleaming, no wheel and no frown The scissor door lifted, a laptop hopped in, “Fasten your seatbelts,” the screen said then the future kicked in No pedals, no steering, just code and a tone, A passenger buckling while the car drove alone It slid past the cones and the traffic’s dull roar, Texas plates glowing as it pulled from the shore The wheels spun like coins on a mid-autumn street, while skeptics still argued and timelines still meet Tomorrow the livestream, the fleet and the cheer…tonight Austin whispered: the cybercab’s here! No driver. No drama. Just gold in the light. Happy Cybercab Eve. Sleep tight… if you might. 🤖🚕

FTSE Russell just shut down the SpaceX index FUD In a formal letter to New York pension officials (and others), FTSE Russell confirmed: •They never spoke to Elon or SpaceX before launching the Fast Entry consultation •The rule change was requested by index users and advisory committees throughout 2025–2026 — not in response to SpaceX •The consultation was public, open to everyone, and broadly supported •SpaceX was added under the exact same transparent rules applied to any large IPO (T+5, consistent with FTSE Global rules that have existed since 2012) •Free float and voting rights are handled via the standard 12-month lock-up provision already used across FTSE Russell indexes No special treatment. No backroom deal. Just the index finally reflecting the actual size and importance of the company on a timely basis $SPCX & $TSLA investors can ignore the noise. The methodology was updated for the market, and SpaceX simply met the criteria.

I don’t think anyone, including David, would argue that in order to achieve this streak, you have to let the car make safe mistakes, and you have to massively inconvenience yourself/sit through things consumers will never sit through. But that’s not really the point. I don’t think David is trying to use this to make an argument that FSD is fully autonomous and anyone can do what he has done/would even want to. What it does do though is show that the vehicle can safely operate itself for many thousands of miles, and that almost every remaining issue that would have the average person disengage isn’t safety related. It’s definitely a strong statement for how safe FSD has become. But yeah, you can’t get to 25,000 miles or probably even 5,000 without multiple moments of major inconvenience. The product isn’t there yet for this sort of thing to be common, but it’s profound that it’s even possible at all today
