Is that the last message they sent?
jwooden··on Why isn’t Twitter charging for their API?
I would assume that its in the works, but they already slapped developers in the face yesterday with new restrictions, if they added pricing plans on top of that, that would be inhumane and too much for developers to handle in on gulp.

Additionally with the pricing, its hard to get right. They won't be able to modify prices as they see fit after they announce them. So it seems like a logical progression: 1 restrict amount of data. 2 next, determine pricing

jwooden··on Elon Musk: Next Six Months Crucial to Tesla's future
I disagree, although it may be potentially a problem in the future. It seems like Tesla however isn't using manufacturing techniques/processes that the rest of the industry follows. Most of the assembly is done using advanced robots, the cost increase seems to be the support and the development of these robots.

The reason I appreciate tesla, is because it doesnt have all the legacy and baggage a traditional car manufacturer has, and thus they have the ability to try bold things. On top of it, they are doing it all in america.
