With the Tesla Robotaxi announcement coming on Thursday, it’s worth noting that Waymo is far and away the leader in autonomous vehicles right now.

Man, oh man. Just read this. And keep in mind, THIS IS DURING A BULL MARKET. Can you IMAGINE these clowns when the wipeout finally hits? It’s going to be wall-to-wall bankruptcies. The boldfaced text is the only modification I’ve made to the original post.

I deeply apologize for the tidal wave of technical issues we’ve been having. If I may point my finger squarely at our host provider, LiquidWeb.com, because they have been nothing but frustrating for the past 30 hours. I wish I was here with great news, but things are so bad I’m actually contemplating changing host providers, which could mean Slope won’t exist in earnest for several more days. That’s not what I want, obviously, but I cannot have a site that is anything but rock solid. Please keep the faith, and if nothing else, perhaps it’ll convince you how big a part Slope is in your life! Your data is safe, and if we make the move, all of the data will come along for the ride. I’m not just Slope’s owner. I’m its most dedicated customer.
