Corporations REALLY want to move everyone to a monthly rental model in order to satisfy their CFOs need for predictable quarterly income. This is really the end of personal computing since it will all be tied to the cloud and the Internet. Eventually ISPs will require your device to be one of the approved rental model systems in order to connect to the Internet at all.
No one is sabotaging these companies. Enron claimed the same thing and so did Lehman Brothers. Short sellers short the stocks because they think they are overvalued. If a company fails it isn't due to short sellers.
Short sellers have an incentive to actually critically look at what a company is claiming. It is their money on the line. Short sellers can't "damage" a stock. If the company produces profits and the stock has reasonable valuation the short sellers will stop. The only people that hate short sellers are the people who want stocks to increase forever.
What? I don't care if you own a Tesla or not. Only morons own Teslas anyway. They are a bunch of 1 percenters who like to pretend they are helping to save the environment which driving around in their metal box.
No, my point is that you don't know what is going on inside Tesla. You know nothing, just whatever the decide to release to the press. Just like Enron and Valeant. You shouldn't be long OR short Tesla or investing in individual stocks. Who cares what "Wall Street" thinks? You love Musk, we get it.
You can't even do that. You can show him the tweet where Musk calls some guy who rescued kids a "pedo" and fanboys will always come up with some justification. Just like some people didn't really believe that Madoff was running a Ponzi scheme even after they were shown the proof. It is a combination of hero worship and self-delusion and techo-elitism that drives it.
Tesla is like Enron. Slimy and and run by ego-maniacs who think they are the smartest guys in the room. The big difference is that Tesla has a bunch of technocrat fanboys who hype it all up.

I don't know why you are so upset. I said it was a good idea to put noise sensors near airports. Not sure why I am modded Funny.
So you are saying it was the aliens? I knew it.
Ducks. And small stones.
It also could have been a plane, or Superman.
That's a good idea. Put a noise sensor around airports.
Nothing else flies in the air.
Because it is unprofessional and the people you work with today you might be working with (or for) again.
I love progress. A plane that can go past the speed of sound and only half the number of seats of Concord? Sounds like a great plan.
Your computer probably still has 64kb too.
Just like many things, "peak oil" is right around the corner. Better make your bets now before you are too late!
Progress is inevitable. My first computer had only 64kb. If you don't believe me think of this: people once said that humans would never fly.
I love it how Slashdotters just assume that breakthroughs happen. It is just like magic.
...trust me, we care as much as anyone else in the media and Internet.
Nah, just stupid. What major city in Asia would someone want to live in? They are all terrible.

Why? Does the source code explode if the value of Ethereum goes to 0? It is just software.

My guess is you DO own a Tesla. You don't seem too bright.

Yeah, does it look like this chart: https://d1-invdn-com.akamaized...
Thats the problem with individuals investing. They think they know what is going on.

Outside the oil industry? They are partially owned by the Saudi's! Good grief.
