He is worse than Elon musk main reason I deleted twitter constantly spreading hate and misinformation on non Tesla evs

I don’t think rj is willing to sell the company he wants to build it for long term and has enough cash to do so I think .

'You're Going To Be In Rough Shape': Rivian CEO To Rivals Backing Off EVs CEO R.J. Scaringe told InsideEVs that he's not worried about EV tax credits going away—but he is worried the U.S. could fall behind in the race.

“Rivian, Tesla, the Chinese—we have a full-throttle focus on EV. And if you’re doing that as your 10% job as an [automaker], you’re going to be in rough shape in 10 years.”

Rivian's CEO RJ Scaringe sounds off on tax incentives, the Trump era and more in an interview:

There is perhaps an analogy with weed here. Ten years ago, to many weed represented freedom, and rebellion against sclerotic old order that denied self-sovereignty over our bodies. Then, weed became legalized, and "official". On that day, I remember my personal interest in weed dropping by > 2x overnight. And since then, public discourse is moving toward a balanced view of weed: it is much less harmful than alcohol and smoking, and has valuable medical uses, but it is also far from harmless, especially in its modern corporate hyper-optimized versions. Crypto finance is similar. In the old order, @GaryGensler created a regime where tokens that give investors clear indication of what their rights are and where their revenue comes from is a "security", but obfuscated "governance tokens" are potentially in the clear. This was a perverse distortion of incentives, and it is a key reason why @GaryGensler must never be christened as a hero, even among crypto skeptics. Everything that happened in crypto was in part a response, part compliance part rebellion, to these pressures. Over the last year, we have been entering a new order. Now, the most powerful people in the world are cheering on the idea of anyone creating tokens for anything, at any scale.

And so now is the time to talk about the difference between sugar-high short-term fun that is unwise to recommend to newbies, and long-term fulfillment and wealth-building. It is not about "fun is bad", it is about the equivalent of modern hyperaddictive cellphone games, versus chess or World of Warcraft. Now is the time to talk about the fact that large-scale political coins cross a further line: they are not just sources of fun, whose harm is at most contained to mistakes made by voluntary participants, they are vehicles for unlimited political bribery, including from foreign nation states. This is in a sense the essence of d/acc: the goal is not to indiscriminately accelerate everything, including superintelligent AI and fentanyl, the goal is to selectively accelerate defense so that it can keep up with offense. Sometimes, that defense is a matter of cultivating our own sense of virtue. Sometimes, that defense is a matter of creating better alternatives. In defi, we are already starting to see a return toward honest token-based fundraising that gives users clear understanding of what they are buying, bringing us the best of pre-2020-era ICOs while addressing their downsides. The @infinex_app patron sale, and the @Truemarketsorg NFT sale, are two examples of this, and I personally know of other examples that are soon to come. There is a bright future of capital allocation mechanisms that can be built. Potentially, we can come up with ways to ensure alignment with community wishes as well as safeguarding important values like privacy, security, open standards and open source, that could be part of the incentive structure itself. Acceleration is coming either way; it is our task to choose the brightest possible vector.

something happening on reddit

Additionally, the following locations are also free but currently only accessible by Rivian vehicles:

- San Bernardino
- Barstow
- Buttonwillow
- Inyokern

Just received a thoughtful email from Rivian, showing love to R1S owners and R2 reservation holders.

It offers to help transporting belongings, moving people, or offering a charge for devices, it’s all about community.

This is why Rivian continues to be my favorite EV brand!

🤣 🤣 🤣

People outside of LA truly don’t understand how apocalyptic this is. It’s worse than it’s ever been. Entire residential neighborhoods are burning to the ground.

2025 Market Outlook Or, Ye Moste True And Compleat Almanack For The Year Of Our Lorde MMXXV

ICYMI: My 2025 market outlook piece from yesterday, out on Substack! quantian.substack.com/p/2025-marke...

Spent some time with my Rivian Gen 2 R1T and have some thoughts. The good, the bad, and everything in between—no sugarcoating. Check out my full video breakdown here: riviantrackr.com/news/video-w...

P.S. If you love what I do and you don't mind sharing this video, I would truly appreciate it <3

Business titans publicly entreating Elon Musk to not engage in retributive oligarchy—using the same psychological play (“now I *know* I can *trust* you to not eat that cookie” vibes)—is pretty wild

i think it will be a while rivian plays out, long term play imo we have to be very patient it is mispriced

in future yes

i agree we have to wait and watch seeing bluesky dynamics playout i am extremely bullish Rivians future

i did not expect such engagement interesting dynamic playing out wondering whether it reflects in the physical world once R2 is out where consumers migrate from model y to rivian

the numbers are not reflecting that though yet it might change soon, the migration to bluesky is happening rather quickly we might see a similar dynamic play out with as it stands tesla has the best car out there in the current prices point this is where rivians time to shine they need R2 fast.
